6 Lessons & Thoughts From The First 3 Months Of 2024:

1. The Importance Of Digital Real Estate - The game of Monopoly teaches us how important it is to acquire our own real estate. It’s also well understood that we are now living in the digital age. With this information, it’s clear to highlight where the opportunities will lie moving forward. Small steps today will put you miles ahead of your competition. Some of my advice would be to; purchase both your personal and business idea names as a domain, even if you do not currently have plans to build a website. Set up a digital portfolio; employers are already using these to find new talent. Share your work and interests in the appropriate digital spaces. Join online communities and connect with likeminded individuals. [I’ll go into greater detail regarding this specific topic in upcoming newsletters].

   
   

2. Progress > Perfection - The stars will hardly ever align to present the ‘perfect’ opportunity In life. To truly get things done; create a rough plan, take immediate action and then iterate as you go along. Life’s best teacher is experience and the only way to gain knowledge from it is to actually try things in the real world.

   
   

3. The Importance Of Direction & Clarity - Be decisive and clear in understanding what YOU truly want. Not what social media or your family and friends say you should want. Without this direction, life is not intentional. What career do you truly desire? What traits do you want in a partner? What would you want your average day to consist of? Where would you want to live? These are just a few of the countless questions you can ask yourself to gain greater clarity. Compile a list of questions for topics you may currently be pondering, write down the answers and refer back to them whenever you feel lost / misaligned.

   
   

4. Karma - The energy and effort you put into the world is what you will get back, simple as that. Wether this be your work, relationships or health. That same energy and effort will always eventually return to you in one shape or another.

   
   

5. The Power Of Systems & Routine - Simplicity is key. I recently read that decision fatigue is the biggest cause of procrastination. Having to organise and plan the tasks you’re going to perform in the moment adds another unnecessary layer of resistance. Creating systems and routines that simplify these tasks allow for positive habit stacking that will skyrocket your productivity. ‘Atomic Habits’ By James Clear is a fantastic book that further explains this concept.

   
   

6. Life Is Short & Time Waits For No One - Be very intentional in making an effort to enjoy it. Do the things you’ve always wished to do, document your memories, start ticking off your bucket list and spend time with the people that bring genuine joy to your life - Live, Love & Laugh.
