What are the five things you want to focus on and/or goals moving in to 2021? May it be your business, personal or professional goal. There’s a need to for more attention, growth and development. Simply thinking about it will be on the scratch of the surface. If an intention is real and practice is put into the work, we manifest growth and development in the project, business, personally and professionally.
I’m sure there’s a lot more to think about.. Without thinking too much here’s my five things, with no certain order.
- Personal – more reading, more writing, more exercising, golfing and creative works – editing and filmmaking.
- Business development in commercial real estate – prospecting, team building, operation and human capital
- Professional – relationship building, project organization, education
- Financial – allocation into investments – stocks and real estates
- Family – time values, home and moments
Some of the distractions that hinder the works you set out to do are your cell phone, social media and television entertainment. Shut down the phone, wifi and tv for a couple of hours. A reminder yet hard to do.
My habits have shifted into a territory most not desired. Early morning wakes, exercise or running, and a nice coffee were the ideal healthy routine. Having lived at Santana Row gave me the luxury to do all that. The gym was literally downstairs, an easy walk moments of waking up. A good routine gave me endurance – running and exercising – an ideal habit. Starbucks was another walking distance. If order by mobile through their app, a quick pickup and go was a piece of mind.
Your morning should not be focusing on your phone or laptop or eyes on screen of each stock’s movement. A new habit is formed, becoming a slave to monetary glory and stock value. Morning becomes a distraction, a territory most not desired. Although stocks and trading are considered prestigious opportunity, they can quickly divert your attention, giving you so much anxieties to deal with. It’s a prestigious opportunity because you have enough savings, or an amount allocated to simply just for that, you’re fortunate and ought to appreciate what you have. This morning habit is my biggest distraction. Away it goes. I’d recommend long-term holding and simple investment strategies.
Family values are so important so be in the moment with them. Put your phone down.
“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.” Benjamin Franklin. Instilling a love of learning into your child is a critical task. You don’t only get one shot at it, but it’s crucial that you get started early.
You don’t even realize the greatness that’s waiting for you when you decide that you want better for yourself. That declaration and choice you make is the catalyst that alters and shifts everything that you attract to yourself. Start with your mindset. Start now. 2021.
