Sorry, But I Have to Tell You Something

Most things in life are pretty simple. The problem is the truth is not easy to handle. It challenges us to put in the work and potentially change some ingrained habits that could be just a few months old or from our childhood. What am I trying to tell you? There is no hack! Most do not get rich quickly, lose 100 lbs, become smart, or whatever overnight. You must put in the work.

1) Get Rich

• Work! It is that simple

• Grow! Strive to grow in your career, look to advance your career

• Save! Live on less than you make

• Invest! Take what you are saving and invest it wisely

2) Lose Weight

• Eat less! Again, this is not rocket science.

• Workout! This one can be a little more scientific, but it doesn't have to be. Simply move more. Make the effort to walk more and stay active. I workout every morning, but I know if I want to lose weight it goes beyond that, I have to get up and move throughout the day.

• Eat better! Avoid the junk

3) Get Smart! In high school, I was never the smartest, math came easy to me, but I still had to do the homework, study, and try my best. Not everything comes easy to everyone, but no matter who you are, or where you came from you need to work to do better.

• Study More

• Be Around Smart People, your friends and the people you hang around with have a big impact on your growth

Those are just 3 key areas, but as I said, they are simple, not easy. You are going to need to work in each space. There is no hack, there is no magic pill, it is not because of your genetics, it is because of your habits. So change your habits, take small steps, and start to grow yourself.
