How do you begin your day? Is it the standard way?
Do you hit snooze a million times, take a warm cozy shower, sleep walk out of the house, stop at Starbucks for a gallon of coffee doused in synthetic fertilisers, pesticides, herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, genocides, and a low-fat bagel or bowl of cereal steeped in something similar but perhaps worse.
Then sit in traffic for an hour to work at a job you hate, whilst counting down to the weekend.
Or, does your look something like this:
You wake naturally and feel fresh. You have a cold shower, a big glass of water and maybe some apple cider vinegar, and then feel pumped to tackle your day and change the world?
What about your business and marketing tasks?
Are you constantly looking for the “next big thing” or the next “hack” to solve your marketing issues? Jumping from idea to idea? Or are you focusing on the long-term game, and studying proven techniques?
There’s always the option to take the easy way out. And that’s what the majority or trainer do every day… But you can choose to not be like everyone else, and take the road less travelled.
