There’s a ton of anxiety and outright fear in the world at the moment. I won’t recite all the problems. Because I’m sure you already know them.And yet......as humans, we are built to survive, hardwired to continue and made to rise.The virus will eventually be handled.The economic chaos will eventually lead to a new era of prosperity [though this will take a long time to reach, I must say].And life will inevitably become smoother again [though it will never be quite the same as it was between 2010 until the end of 2019]. Those were our Roaring Twenties—before our Greater Depression.So keep your focus trained on the many opportunities to build a better you, grow a business that serves more people and live a life that’s more creative, joy-filled and kind.If you're ready to make 2022 the single happiest, healthiest and most productive year of your life yet with Robin Sharma as your mentor...He has just released a VERY special new online course based on his #1 global bestseller The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.This truly remarkable 30-Day Challenge offers you hours of world-class training and takes you well beyond what you learned in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book that so many people around the world have fallen in love with.

In my 26 years of mentoring many of the giants of industry, leaders of economy, and titans of prosperity, there’s a through-line I note in their lives......genius-grade self-discipline.Now the good news is that good research confirms that “self-regulation” is not a natural gift but an earned skill......and the more we train the “muscle” of personal-mastery, the stronger it grows [like any other muscle]......and when we increase our self-discipline in one area, our willpower in every other area grows with it.If you're ready to make 2022 the single happiest, healthiest and most productive year of your life yet with Robin Sharma as your mentor...He has just released a VERY special new online course based on his #1 global bestseller The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.This truly remarkable 30-Day Challenge offers you hours of world-class training and takes you well beyond what you learned in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book that so many people around the world have fallen in love with.

A life based on what you get versus what you give is one that will always lead to an end that is empty.Too many good souls have lost their way....they’ve traded the peacefulness of making the lives of others better for the stress of making their fortunes stronger....they’ve exchanged a rich connection with their spiritual dimension for the poverty of a lavish pursuit for more houses, boats, jets and mansions....they’ve bartered the authentic desire we each carry within us to make society a little better for the overwhelming drive to make their stockpiles of rarely used things even bigger.As you rise in human maturity, you’ll be less interested in trivial pursuits. As you discover a mission that is larger than your own life, a bravery and nobility beyond intellectual understanding will begin to emerge. The more you connect with a cause that is of helpfulness to other humans, the chains of your previously perceived reality fall away. And you will ascend toward a happiness that knows few bounds. And a peace that requires no luxuries.If you're ready to make 2022 the single happiest, healthiest and most productive year of your life yet with Robin Sharma as your mentor...He has just released a VERY special new online course based on his #1 global bestseller The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.This truly remarkable 30-Day Challenge offers you hours of world-class training and takes you well beyond what you learned in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book that so many people around the world have fallen in love with.

The majority are stuck in scarcity. They don’t give much to their organizations nor to their customers. And so their people never fall in love with them—and their brands.The exceptionalists are all about generosity. They know that the marketplace replies to value delivered.

So here’s an extremely powerful tactic that has been delivering gorgeous results for the elite clients that I coach. [And please know that it’s really helping me advance my own game massively, as well].It’s called The Forced Optimization Strategy (FOS)……The idea’s this: forget self-discipline when it comes to getting to your health, career, financial and spiritual goals. What works 100X better is to install an automatic system that “forces” you to do the thing you need to do.The reality of human nature is we generally get things done when there’s some fire under us to do them…so use this fact to give yourself a huge advantage…Some simple examples:Example #1: Getting ultra-fit is a game-changer. Everything in your life just works better when you’re alive with energy and peak health. But the reality is too many of us try to build the habit of working out via willpower. And so we end up giving up after a few weeks.Using the Forced Optimization Strategy (FOS), you could “force” yourself to get uncommonly fit by hiring a trainer to come to your home at 6AM three times a week. Now, you have to do the workout. Because she’ll be knocking at your front door tomorrow morning :)Book this schedule onto your calendar for 3 or 4 months and you’re golden. It won’t be easy. But it’ll be worth it.Example #2: If you like “The 2 Massage Protocol” I’ve been teaching for years because you get that massages dramatically boost energy, reduce the amount of sleep you need and keep you feeling like a lion, then book your therapist 3 months into the future so it’s a done deal.No excuses. No alternatives. No lame reasons for not getting the ritual done.Example #3: If this is the year you’re amped to grow your business/career exponentially (10% annual growth is so old-school), then “force” the creation of a new habit by meeting with your mastermind alliance every Friday afternoon or sign up for a webinar program that runs every week or schedule a team meeting every Monday where everyone comes to the table to clearly explain what they’ve done to accelerate results.You can use the FOS to take more time off than you’ve taken off in years. Just ask yourself which trips and adventures would fuel your finest performance and help you live a life you love.Then book the trips/adventures ahead 12 months. You’ll “force the optimization” even more if you pay for them.I think you get the idea. Just run this protocol for a few weeks and you’ll get how awesome it is. And please remember: no idea works until you do the work.If you're ready to make 2022 the single happiest, healthiest and most productive year of your life yet with Robin Sharma as your mentor...He has just released a VERY special new online course based on his #1 global bestseller The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.This truly remarkable 30-Day Challenge offers you hours of world-class training and takes you well beyond what you learned in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book that so many people around the world have fallen in love with.

The average performer is pure consumer. It’s all about buying and having things. Their self-identity is based on the brands, labels and badges of the moment. Iconic producers care very little about stuff. What stokes their fire has less to do with being a consumer and a lot more to do with being a maker. For them, their compelling cause is all about using their creativity, energy, talents and time to produce value that not only delivers their personal dreams but makes the world a greater place.If you're ready to make 2022 the single happiest, healthiest and most productive year of your life yet with Robin Sharma as your mentor...He has just released a VERY special new online course based on his #1 global bestseller The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.This truly remarkable 30-Day Challenge offers you hours of world-class training and takes you well beyond what you learned in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book that so many people around the world have fallen in love with.

During this storm, rather than play victim and wish things were the way they used to be (those days are gone), elevate your leadership game and out-invent everyone around you.Rather than freezing, create new value that your marketplace will adore. Products that customers now need more than ever and services that will help them make their desires real.Suffering has always provided soil for awesome creativity, next-level productivity and innovation.Be viscerally on fire to bring value to a massive number of people.

The way most people work is from an ancient age.The idea that working longer and harder makes you more productive and better is outdated.It comes from the era when most workers toiled on a factory line. And by putting in more hours they would create more products.For creative professionals versus manual laborers, you get rewarded—not by the length of time you put in but by the degree of mastery that you put out.As a matter of fact, for those in industries that must deliver world-class artistry, working more often produces less.Because we don’t get the time to contemplate and study and allow beautiful new ideas to incubate.It’s the rare breed of modern worker who gets this truth. And who makes the time to perform super intensely when they create and then recover super deeply when they are off.If you're ready to make 2022 the single happiest, healthiest and most productive year of your life yet with Robin Sharma as your mentor...He has just released a VERY special new online course based on his #1 global bestseller The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.This truly remarkable 30-Day Challenge offers you hours of world-class training and takes you well beyond what you learned in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book that so many people around the world have fallen in love with.

It's easy to forget that successful people didn’t just wake up that way. They started off ordinary – with a goal – and then focused on the daily small steps required to reach it. And as the days slipped into weeks and the weeks into months and the month into years, their dream became more alive. Each day, they practice.So….devote to practice.-practice getting up at 5 am each day. It’ll get easier (that’s what practice does).-practice being more positive and passionate-practice being more spectacular at what you do at work (good question: “how would you show up at work if you were the best in the world at what you do?” Start working toward that and your career will skyrocket (how could it not?)-practice being kinder and more patient-practice enriching your mind and knowledge base by reading for an hour each day-practice balancing work and your personal life-practice getting super fitNothing wonderful ever comes without practice. It’s not just a discipline of the best athletes. It’s a discipline of the best human beings.

Rest a lot. The dominant chant of the productive class these days is “hustle and grind”......The suggestion is that if you’re not working all the time you will never win. I’ve found that elite productivity comes via cycling of intense periods of work balanced with profound periods of rest (this includes active rest; I explain all of this in my new book The Everyday Hero Manifesto.If you're ready to make 2022 the single happiest, healthiest and most productive year of your life yet with Robin Sharma as your mentor...He has just released a VERY special new online course based on his #1 global bestseller The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari.This truly remarkable 30-Day Challenge offers you hours of world-class training and takes you well beyond what you learned in The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari book that so many people around the world have fallen in love with.
