TOYL - DAY1

Decide.

REMEMBER THE POWER OF QUESTIONS

1. What are you happy about right now? What could you be happy or excited about?

My newfound health;
My family;
The startup business I'm putting together;
Having a roof over my head;
Discovering and applying TR principles in my life

2. What are you really proud of in your life right now? What could you be proud of?

Really proud of the progress I've made in my health. I've gone from 205lbs down to an average of 175lbs in less than 2mo's. I'm really proud of the new commitment I have made to improving my life. I'm really proud of the newfound energy I have from my new healthy lifestyle. I'm proud of my son. I'm proud to be a part of a good group of people who have like minded priorities and goals!

3. What are you grateful for? What could you be grateful for?

I am grateful for my family. I'm grateful for my health. I am grateful for having a house, transporation, food, and clothes. I'm grateful for the wonderful weather! I'm grateful for living! I'm grateful for my creativity! I'm grateful for having such a supportive family. I'm grateful for all the wonderful opportunities that come to me. i'm grateful for having the ability to SEE opportunities! I'm grateful for my full mental and physical faculties. I'm grateful for living in a free country! I'm grateful for all the conveniences that we take for granted! I'm grateful for not having to struggle for the basics in life. I'm grateful that I have the opportunity to get my life in order and optimize my life to maximize my positive impact in the world!

4. Who do you love? Who loves you? Who could you love? Who could you allow
to love you?

I love my family
I love my siblings and parents
I love my close friends

THE ASSIGNMENT

1. The first secret to creating a change is awareness, so let's find out what you're currently focusing on

• What are some areas you focus on in life that don't really serve you? Are there some things you fear or don't want to experience but often find yourself thinking about anyway? Write down two or three things you often focus on that make you feel stressed or overwhelmed.

Some areas in my life that don't serve me are 1. watching tv; 2. not having a schedule; 3. not having my priorities clear and established... a few things that make me feel stressed/overwhelmed are 1. debt/bills due; 2. scope of project to complete to launch startup; 3. not having a schedule to put everything i want accomplished in my life in order!

2. The way to get more time is to get rid of the unnecessary things that "steal" your time.

• What activities do you do on a regular basis that you really don't have to or that someone else could easily do for you? Write down one or two now. Then write down one or two things that you don't have a sense of real purpose about, that don't give you 'juice,' or relate to an outcome or result you want, and yet you find yourself doing anyway.

Laundry & cleaning the house used to be things that I did regularly that would "steal time" away from me. the things I do regularly now is preparing meals and cleaning dishes. paying bills don't give me a sense of real purpose or give me juice... and i do it regularly anyway! :) other than that, i can't think of anything else.

3. Now let's focus all what you do want (and later we'll create a plan to make it a reality).

• What's something you want to achieve, experience, learn, or master? Take a moment now to write down one or two specific outcomes or results you want for your life-things that once achieved, would really 'juice' you.

1. Have my business fully launched and profitable by the end of the year!
2. Have a great business network of people and resources that I can rely on and am proud of!
3. Be financially independent - not have to worry about bills!

4. This is the most important question!

• Write down why you must master this system called RPM Life Management. What are your reasons? What will it give you, your family, and your friends? What will it eliminate? What kind of stress would disappear if you had a system like this? Write down what it will cost you if you don't take the time to master this system.

I must master this RPM Life Management system because it will help prioritize all the truly important things in my life. This system will help streamline and optimize my life schedule. This program will allow me to reach my goals and potential much quicker than without it! Mastering this system will give me, my family, and friends the priority and time they deserve of me. This system will give me order and structure in my life so I can be a better person and a reliable person to everyone! This system will eliminate my tardiness. This system will elminate procrastination. This system will eliminate my excuses for not getting things done. This sytem will elminate waste and inefficient use of my time. The stress that would disappear from my life would be the nagging thoughts of things I'm supposed to do... stress about the important events/schedules i'm supposed to remember... stress about making appointments... stress from not knowing when bills are due. If I don't learn this system, I will remain frazzled. I will not be a GREAT example to my family, to others... If I don't master this system, I'll always be less than average, or at best, average. I will always be late. I will always have stress which will bring down the my health. I will be a poor example to my kids - and they will have a disadvantage because they will most likely adopt the same poor habits that I will have since not mastering this system. It will cost my kids the edge that they can have in life because they never got to witness firsthand my greatness b/c of mastering this system!! That would just be HORRIBLE - I do NOT want my kids to be at a disadvantage because I could not be a GREAT example that they can follow and have in their own lives!!
