3. âYour time is limited, so donât waste it living someone elseâs life.
Donât be trapped by ethicsâwhich is living with the results of
other peopleâs thinking. Donât let the noise of othersâ opinions
drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the
courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow
already know what you truly want to become.â âSteve Job
4. RULE #1 An addiction to distraction is the
end of your creative production. Empire-
makers and history-creators take one hour
for themselves before dawn, in the serenity
that lies beyond the clutches of complexity,
to prepare themselves for a world-class
day.
5. RULE #2 Excuses breed no genius.
Just because you havenât installed
the early-rising habit before doesnât
mean you canât do it now. Release
your rationalizations and remember
that small daily improvements, when
done consistently over time, lead to
stunning results.
6. RULE #3 All change is hard at first,
messy in the middle and gorgeous at the
end. Everything you now find easy you
first found difficult. With consistent
practice, getting up with the sun will
become your new normal. And
automatic.
7. RULE #4 To have the results The Top
5% of producers have, you must start
doing what 95% of people are
unwilling to do. As you start to live like
this, the majority will call you crazy.
Remember that being labeled a freak
is the price of greatness.
8. RULE #5 When you feel like
surrendering,
continue.Triumph loves the
relentless.
9. âA child has no trouble believing the
unbelievable, nor does the genius or
the madman. Itâs only you and I, with
our big brains and our tiny hearts, who
doubt and overthink and hesitate.â â
Steven Pressfield.
10. âIt is well to be up before daybreak,
for such habits contribute to
health, wealth and wisdom.â â
Aristotle
12. âThe men who are great live with that
which is substantial, they do not stay with
that which is superficial; they abide with
realities, they remain not with what is
showy. The one they discard, the other
they hold.â â Lao Tzu
