Top 6 lessons learned from the book- DO IT TODAY

The book titled Do It Today provided very important elements of human behaviour that inhibits our efforts to achieve results.

1. STOP LOOKING FOR SHORTCUT, AND DO THE WORK

Building a business or career is hard. It requires you to do difficult, tedious, and unsatisfying tasks. If you want more clients or work, no one is going to hand it to you. You have to hustle. Do content marketing, one-on-one sales, network, or whatever method you use to grow your business.

And if you want to climb the corporate ladder, you have to form alliances, be strategic, outperform your targets, and be great at what you do.

That is what you SHOULD do, right? Most of us already know these things. Or, you will find out about it. There is no such thing as a secret to succeeding at work.

2. ELIMINATE. ELIMINATE. ELIMINATE

Elimination is a key strategy that I use for many aspects of my life. We accumulate so much unnecessary baggage throughout the years that we consistently need to eliminate. If you find yourself struggling to focus, try this strategy. Make your life so simple that its a breeze to live. And lets be honest here. Who wants to live a life that is impossible? Life is already hard enough. Dont make it harder.

3. WILLPOWER DOESN’T WORK. SYSTEMS DO.

What you really need is a system for doing work. A lot of people shy away from routines, systems and frameworks because they want to have freedom. Im sorry to disappoint you: Freedom is your enemy. The fact is that, if you want to get things done, you need rules.

If you combine the right productivity tactics, you have a productivity system. The deadlines create urgency, accountability will create responsibility, working in intervals improves your focus, exercising will give you more energy, so does a healthy diet, and eliminating distractions will take away the temptations.

4. DISCONNECT FROM THE INTERNET.

And there is only one reason to do that: Too much of anything is a bad thing. Even good
things. Too much exercise? You will get
overtrained.

Too much love? You will smother people. Too much work? You will burn out. Too much food? You will get fat. Too much water? You will die. So why do you consume so much internet?

5. MANAGE YOUR ATTENTION

Focus determines the quality of your life. No focus means no control of your attention.
And no control means frustration. We all know what frustration leads to. Start managing your attention. Not your time.

6. REST.

You recharge your phone when it runs out of juice. You refill your gas tank when you are running on empty. But sometimes, you forget to do the same for your most precious possession: Your body (and the brain that is inside of it).
