When you look in the mirror who do you see? Do you like what you see? Do you see someone who is going to make their mark on the world, achieve great things and make the world a better place?

Successful people do not rely on chance. They proactively shape the course of their lives.When they look into their mirror, they see the future version of themselves and that puts a smile on their reflection.

If you’re like most, the reflection you see in the mirror is not the reflection you would like to see.

So, how do change that reflection?

In my Rich Habits research, I uncovered eight strategies to help you change your reflection by creating a blueprint for every aspect of your life. I like to call them the Future Mirror Strategies.

Each strategy provides a clear vision of who you want to be, in every aspect of your life.

Without a clear vision, you have no control over the type of change you desire to bring into your life. Without clarity, your future is determined by chance, which often does not align with the change you desire.

You need change to be programmed or systematic. That is only possible when you have a blueprint that is guiding and directing the change you desire.

Let’s explore each strategy. [Read more…]

Every individual’s daily bucket is filled with the exact same amount of time – 1,440 minutes.

Life does not discriminate with any of us, when it comes to time –  we are all on equal footing.

What we choose to do with the time given us, is where the rich and poor part ways.

Success and wealth happen to only a select few. This select few make the best use of their 1,440 minutes.

How does the average successful person spend their weekday?

Thanks to my five-year study on the daily habits of the wealthy, I have the data. Let’s pull that curtain back:

• 30 minutes or more engaged in reading for self-education for work or to help pursue a long-term goal, dream or major purpose.
• 30 minutes or more engaged in aerobic exercise.
• 15 minutes or more planning their day.
• 60 minutes dedicated specifically to pursuing a long-term goal, dream or major purpose.
• 70 minutes or less making phone calls, emailing, skypeing, etc.
• 420 minutes or more sleeping.
• 40 minutes networking, volunteering, relationship building.
• 500 minutes or more working.
• 75 minutes or less traveling for work.
• 75 minutes or less eating.
• 30 minutes dressing, bathing, etc.
• 10 minutes meditating.
• 45 minutes dedicated to family
• 40 minutes running errands, recreation, cooking, home, miscellaneous.

The average weekday of the wealthy begins at 4:45 am, or approximately three hours before arriving at work.

Success isn’t an event, it’s a process. Successful people drain their daily time bucket by investing their time in activities that will create meaningful deferred future benefits.

The unsuccessful drain their daily time bucket by spending time on activities that do not create meaningful deferred future benefits.
