Tis the season.
Oh my gosh, I love this time of year so much.
And I know it also comes with a lot of pressure.
I know you enjoy my video so much on the one thing I learned that helped me become a millionaire.
You check that out here.
I wanted to continue on that theme because so many of you are asking, "How do you actually
focus?
How do you actually minimize?"
So, as we head into a brand new year, this video is all about how to actually have your
best year ever.
And I've actually come up with an equation that will help you create your best year in
a very intentional way.
Here's the thing.
Every single thing that you do is an opportunity that has a cost, so I like to call it opportunity
cost, and you probably heard that term before.
But basically, if I decide that I want to go hang out with my friends, the cost of that
is that I'm taking time away from focusing on the things that are true goals for me.
Now, it depends on what you really want to do in the next year.
If your focus is on building really strong relationships, then you should be doing that
and you shouldn't be spending as much time on your business.
But everybody's goals are so unique.
And I think at this time of year we're so used to everybody saying, "I got to get healthy.
I got to build a million-dollar business, I got to do all the same things."
But you really have to tap into what you actually want.
This video is not about goal setting.
I actually want you to stop doing things, and I want you to subtract things off your
list of things to do because a lot of the things that you probably would goal set around
really don't matter to you, and if things don't matter to you, you're not actually going
to do them because you don't have the motivation to take the actions on them.
So, understanding first and foremost, what is it that you truly want, and what is distracting
you from getting that, and what are the goals that you think you want but you don't really
want, and also would distract you from the thing you actually want.
Are you with me?
That's how I look at the opportunity cost of it.
Then the next thing is minimizing and focusing, which can feel really, really difficult.
But this comes back to keeping a log of your time.
Taking a look at how you spend your days and your weeks and your months and what time are
you missing out on spending time on things that don't really matter to you and are taking
away from the goals.
Because here's the thing.
I know you have big goals, I have big goals.
You have things you want to achieve.
But just adding goals on top of goals on top of goals and just trying to set all the goals
in the world, is actually a huge distraction from achieving the thing that you really want.
So, what can you minimize?
What can you subtract from your life?
What can you take away?
Instead of goal-setting, let's talk about subtracting some stuff off the list of things
to do.
For me, I had my biggest year ever in my business.
We doubled our revenue, we generate multiple millions last year in the business.
I am the healthiest I've ever been, which I'm really proud of and the fittest, and I
have the best relationships I've had really in my life.
How I did all of that was that I stopped doing things.
I stopped doing a lot of things, and I started just getting help on things that I didn't
want to do or I knew weren't really in my genius zone because I know what's in my genius
zone and I know it helps me live my best life.
Those are the things that I focus on.
Anything else, ie, cooking, don't really do that anymore because I started outsourcing
it and getting my meals prepped, as well as cleaning.
I hired a cleaner.
Even if you can't hire people to do this right now, there are tasks you're doing in your
life that are taking you away from what you really want to do.
And those things are costing you your goals and your dreams.
So find a way.
Ask your friends or your family for help.
Ask people you know in your network.
There are so many amazing groups even on Facebook where you can reach out to find help on specific
things.
That's a really good place to start.
Figuring out what can you subtract from yourself this year and what can you take away from
your to do list this year, because that is going to actually help you way more than setting
a bunch of arbitrary goals.
Now, the next thing is real relationships.
The more that you can focus on actually connecting with people in a deep way, as opposed to just
through a camera, or just through social media, or just through Instagram, the more magic
opens up.
We are all craving real relationships.
So, make them a priority.
Make your friends and your family and the people who lift you up, a priority.
You know what you can also subtract though?
The people who don't believe in you, the people who don't believe in your goals, the people
who are toxic, and the people who aren't doing the things that you actually want to be doing
and can't support you in the things you want to do because they're jealous.
Those are all people that you probably want to get out of your circle as well.
I guess my point is, the whole thing here is about subtraction, not addition.
I know that you're probably being fed a lot of messages right now to set goals and you
should have all of these big, audacious things you want to achieve next year, but I really
think that's a trap and we need to avoid it because you know what you want.
Now it's about just minimizing anything that takes away from that goal and from what you
actually want to achieve.
So, really important to understand that as we head into the new year.
The equation that I came up with for achieving your goals, and when I looked back at this
last year for me, which was so monumental and just a really magical year.
And to recreate that for myself and for you is basically this.
You want to look at what do you really, really, really want.
Spice girls, thank you.
What do you really want?
Plus, what are you willing to work for?
Because you might be sitting there saying, "I want to build a million-dollar business."
Well, that takes work, my friend.
How hard are you willing to work for it and how much can you subtract from your life and
sacrifice from your life to actually be able to do that?
So, what you really want plus what are you willing to work for minus any distractions
from getting those things.
That's the equation for your best year ever.
You can do it.
I believe in you.
I'll be here every step of the way with you.
Let me know what you want to see from me so I can help you do the things that you want
to do.
But really, truly, and honestly, goal setting is a farce.
It's all about subtraction, minimizing, and focusing on the one thing that you can master
that's going to make you magnetic to do all the things that you want to do in your life.
I'm so excited for you.
Let's head into this new year strong and bossy AF.
Okay?
I love you.
