An authentic priority is one that is constantly chosen. It is a conscious decision.

Many of our priorities are sub-conscious, like watching the mindless boob-tube or electronic income reducer as it is often called (TV).

But once you become aware of a new personal development within you, a huge transformation can take place. You can consciously choose a different path. One of purpose, direction, and meaning.

Authentic priorities can bring you enthusiasm, energy, and motivation. They can free you from the forces of circumstance, expectation, and habit.

Habit can be perceived as good or bad. Are you consciously aware of what your habits are?

Here are the 5 Daily Habits of Successful Leaders, ask yourself if you are doing these every day:

Are you visualizing your goals?

Are you consistent with your daily income producing activities?

Are you consciously working on your self, on your self mastery?

Are you Masterminding with other Leaders (by being plugged in)?

Are you cultivating the expectation of leadership?

Just by changing your priorities, you can create a whole new life for yourself. As you grow and change, so will your priorities, and that’s okay as long as they are authentic and are moving you towards your goals.

Discover what your priorities are by asking yourself these questions:

What do you think about?

How do you spend your money? (Just look in your checkbook ledger)

How do you spend your time?

When you choose to become an entrepreneur, the only way to foster this kind of growth is through Study. Study of your trade, your self, and of other leaders. The definition of Study is the application of the mental faculties to the acquisition of knowledge, or a state of contemplation. Study is an adventure. A doorway of discovery. Through Study we transcend narrow and superficial understandings and begin to see more deeply into the reality of what’s really possible for us.

We are either growing or we are dieing. We grow through Study. So, get plugged into the community, the training, the events.

We are transformed through the renewal of our minds by doing the things that are most worthy. What is going to allow you to get what you want? What is worthy for you? Apply your mind to what is most worthy for you.

You can see it as a task… or an adventure. It’s up to you.

Commit to the study, the knowledge, and the adventure of what you have in front of you.

Don’t just get in the game. Get in the game to play to win.

I’ll see you on the other side!

After listening to several training sessions where they mention how important having a schedule is, it made me start thinking…

I’ve been such an easy going person, just going with the flow…  And I realized, that it was because I wanted to please everyone.  Well, I’ve also realized that you can’t please everyone.  Someone, somewhere, is going to be unpleased with you.  And that’s okay.  You don’t have to please everyone.  It’s a perfectionist way of thinking and you need to drop that like a hot potato.  Humans are not perfect.  The important part is just trying to get it right most of the time.

A quote from Andy Andrew’s The Traveler’s Gift: “I understand that God did not put in me the ability to always make right decisions.  He did, however, put in me the ability to make a decision and then make it right.”

The most important thing to gain from that quote is to just make the decision, and then go about the business of making the decision right.

Successful people make their decisions quickly and change their mind slowly.  Unsuccessful people make their decisions slowly and change their mind quickly.  Which group are you in?

Do you make your decision quickly and then go about taking the actions necessary to make that a successful decision?  Or, do you hem and haw about it, finally decide to do whatever you were making a decision about, and then the moment you do, you think “Oh, goodness, was that the right thing to do”?

If you want to get anywhere in life, you need a mindset that will help you keep on track.  If you are a mess in your mind, you will be of no value to anywhere else, so you need to get your mind squared away.  Then you need to follow that up with the appropriate action steps.  If you take no action, you can expect to receive nothing back.

So, back to my original thought.  If you are easy going and just going with the flow, can that actually be harming you?  I think it can.  Afterall, if you are just going with the flow, you have no idea where you are going.  And if you have no idea where you are going, how do you know if you’ve ever arrived?  Or are even close to where you want to be?

Think of it like being on a ship at sea.  You are just sailing aimlessly in the ocean, never knowing where the land is.  Eventually, you will run out of food, water, and supplies and you will perish.  But, if you know where the land is that you are aiming for, and chart a course to get there, your mission will be a success.  You will arrive before running out of the food, water, and supplies that keep you going.

Scheduling is a popular subject on the training sessions I have attended.  Scheduling your activities for the day gives you a road map to follow so that you know what you are supposed to be doing and when.  It helps you stay on track and get the activities done that you need to be doing in order to attain the goal that you are shooting for.

So, stop going with the flow and figure out where it is that you want to be going and then chart your course of how you are going to get there!  You can use a day planner, a spreadsheet, or perhaps Google Calendar.  Just use something and quit wandering around aimlessly.  Be a real captain on your voyage and know where you are going and what you need to do to get there!

One last thought to remember: It’s good to connect with others, but help others connect with you by sharing yourself with them through the uniqueness of YOU!
