A calm and modest life brings more happiness than the pursuit of success combined with constant restlessness.

This Week’s Thoughts

Do you ever step back and praise yourself for all the madness you deal with?

As I speed up in life I will often imagine I am looking down on myself from a birds-eye view and watch as I manage all the the nuances life is throwing at me.

Grady, how are you doing? “Always good” is always my response.

How: I compartmentalize and move fast, whether it is work, family, fitness, or future…I make a decision and go.

Over the years I have watched other successful people juggle and win:

• What do they do first?

• How do they start their day?

• How do they take phone calls?

• Do they text back immediately or wait an hour, day, never…

I have adapted their habits into my life and now I am able to accomplish more, and still have time to do what I want…It is a balance that took practice to create.

When looking at business building activities, I have to decide is this something I need to do, start, or advance.

I often ignore important things I need to do if it will not hurt me, so I can start or advance something else.

Why: I need to find out if a new project has legs, if its actually viable and can make money, and most importantly if I can trust my new partner. High quality partnerships is the cheat code for mass accomplishment.

The majority of the time I choose to start or advance something to get the idea into my subconscious so my brain can start working on it in the background while I am doing other projects…A secret I am sharing with you now.

It is always a battle between time and goals however this is a belief that I live by:

“Successful people make decisions fast.”

I used to dwell, and ponder, and ask other people for insight on decisions that were not that big of a deal...and it would always delay the action of whatever needed to get done- large or small decisions, and thus the result.

You are all super sharp, with great intuition and a strong gut feeling...trust yourself.

As soon as you are presented with something that needs a decision or item to be acted upon...Go with your first instinct immediately and move on.

Will you always be 100% right? No.

But the majority of time you will be right, and that will compound over time = compounded winning.

The real value is this- you will be 100’s of positive decisions ahead of the person still dwelling on item #1.

“Successful people make decisions fast and keep moving”

Trust yourself and go fast.
