Principles of Creation

We all have the power to create

By Travis RogersPublished 5 years ago 4 min read

Since COVID-19 hit the world has been thrown around like cargo aboard a charter boat in the middle of the Bering

Sea and since then we all have had to adapt to a new way of life. Most of us can agree that's been easier said than

done.

That's why I was inspired to write this fantastic e-book discussing some of the top principles that have been changing

lives. After you apply these principles to your everyday life, you will see why?

Principles helped me go from Produce Clerk to an

Executive Chef Trainer and led me to help open

dozens of restaurants across the United States all

without attending culinary school.

But, before we start here's a full disclaimer, you have

to write these principles down in order to work.

Also to be straightforward, so that you are not

beating yourself up later. You may find it hard to stick

to some of them but continue even if you stumble.

Build up your routine and it will help build your

discipline.

1a. Humble Yourself

In order to apply Ownership, I first had to start

with how can I improve myself without making

lame excuses or blaming others for my mistakes.

1b. Learn to Detach

I also had to realize that by taking ownership of

my life, I also needed to take ownership of my

emotions. Whenever I became frustrated I took a

deep breath and communicated in a clear, calm

tone. You simply can not spread negative

emotions around and expect them not to come back

to you.

1c. Build on Relationships

Be more proactive when it comes to your

relationship whether personal or business.

Always do more listening than talking and never

come off like a rock.

Meaning shows some

empathy towards other people's perspectives.

Principle no.2

WHY?

2a. Know Why?

Once I know and understand my why then I will

know why it matters. Knowing why it matters

helps me understand why I must make moves

every day. For it is the only way to ensure that I

have that in which I desire most out of life.

2b. Constantly communicate WHY?

Life can throw curveballs so every day of every

minute of every second I had to repeat to myself

my Why. It is an investment of a lifetime trust me.

2c. Take time & Reflect

Take the time to reflect on your progress each &

every week. This way I know what went right and

what went wrong. Once I understand that then I

can begin to see big-time change.

3a. Always Focus

When I focus on my long-term goal, I can

prioritize a list of no more than four things. By

prioritizing I then know where my time is begin

wasted.

3b. Don't Complaint it

It's better to achieve one goal at a time then go

for multiple ones and achieve none. Come up

with a very clear and detailed plan. One that

clearly shows the now and then.

3c. Be Aggressive

I have to understand that if I am going to see my

life change then I am going to have to do

whatever it takes.

I must dictate what happens in my life instead of

waiting for things to happen. I realize that there

are many paths that may work.

Principle no.3

Execution

2a. The Truth Hurts

I know that the truth hurts, but I have to be

brutally honest with myself and my ability. I must

set my standards and asses them weekly in

private or with someone for extra accountability.

2b. Constantly communicate WHY?

I spent years doing research in order to help

others solve problems. Reaching out to my

coworkers, friends, and family members gave me

a better understanding of customer interaction

with various products.

2c. Seek more Knowledge

It is my responsibility to seek knowledge

whenever I don't know something. I've found out

that seeking out people that are more

knowledgeable than I can be a serious

advantage.

Principle no.4

Your Truth
