No Magic to Winning

No matter what you are doing, health, sports, real estate… there is no magic to winning. Winning as a formula is pretty simple, it’s not easy but it is simple.

The magic free winning formula

  1. Expect to win

  2. Grind even when it’s boring

  3. Grind even when you don’t want to

  4. Do the things others don’t want to

  5. Invest their time where it matters

  6. Turn problems into opportunities

  7. Obsess over the right things

  8. Always be looking for the next peak no matter where you are on the mountain

Not winning in a certain area? To be great, what do you need to do a little differently? Where do you need to close the gap?
