5. Surround Yourself with People You Love Be around with people you love and care about.

6. Take Risks If you’re not taking risks, then you will not have the motivation to do things.

Do this one thing right now: list all the small things you need to do. Close this book and do everything that can be done right now.

The two-day rule is simple: you would not miss anything for two days straight. You can miss it for one day if you must but never for two days.

Consistency is very important. Without consistency, you can’t move toward your goals.

Drop everything holding you back from living your life the way you want.
