Empowering All Your Habits
I’d like to go back to [Name Withheld] again, and talk about how we can apply more of his excellent wisdom to our own wealth creation projects and goals.
[Name Withheld] Peak Performance Video Part 3
In the third part of the [Name Withheld] Peak Performance videos, [Name Withheld] talks about the importance of achieving a life of balance and of developing habits that empower you.
We all have habits. You cannot get away from them. As [Name Withheld] explains, it’s important that we do have habits because habits are our brain’s way of simplifying life for us so that we can do and accomplish more. Habits are not bad things, unless you let them be.
Three Types Of Habits
What is key to a successful, balanced life is making the most of your habits. To do that it helps to understand the types of habits that we all have; there are three of them:
Empowering habits—these are habits that are for our own good—good habits that are of benefit to us.
- Disempowering habits—these are the “bad” habits, the habits that take away from our best life. They could be anything from smoking (the example we use in the video) to overeating, overspending, or so many more.
- Neutral habits—these habits are as they sound, neither good nor bad. They don’t really hurt, but they don’t really get us farther ahead, either.
Maximising Habits
If you think about the habits you have, you think of them as things that come easily to you—whether you want them to or not. They are things that you have become accustomed to doing that come naturally to you, without your even thinking about them. Habits are powerful things, even if they are small habits, because we do them almost constantly and just accept that they need doing.
If you can transform your habits into those that are primarily helpful, you will be doing many good things for yourself every day without even having to think about doing them. All it takes is to start empowering yourself by turning those disempowering habits into empowering ones, and giving strength to your neutral habits by also replacing or modifying some of those into empowering, beneficial habits.
Think about how powerful a tool that could be for building wealth—you consistently perform small, meaningful, powerful tasks without having to think about it, without feeling as though you are doing a chore. You build a network of positive empowerment throughout your day, and do away with the negative detractors. The possibilities are endless!
Of course I’m summarizing the words of a great man here; come hear it straight in this [Name Withheld] video, and get an even better understanding of how you can empower yourself through simple every day habits.
