Do you really put your heart and soul into living your best life?
“99 percent is a bitch. 100 percent is a breeze.”- Jack Canfield, the best-selling author of The Success Principles
One of the reasons why many fail and continue to fail over and over again with the same projects and the same line of work is they never go 100 percent with it.
When you half-ass things, you don’t get results and you move on to the next thing. It becomes a pattern, a cycle of “starting over.” An endless hamster wheel of doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
Putting 99 percent of effort into something is difficult, it’s frustrating, it takes longer to see results and the chances of you quitting are somewhat higher than if you were to put in 100 percent for a period of time.
It’s hard, I know. Nothing worth having comes easy so, you either pull your big kid pants up and go hard or you continue doing things half-heartedly, your choice.
Let’s get into this:
Identify What Needs 100 Percent of Your Attention
Not everything requires 100 percent of your attention. Find the true juice(the most important stuff) and focus on that. Here’s an example:
You want to build your blog, you don’t have enough content. There are smaller tasks that are necessary but not important. Your goal is to publish 50 blog posts in two months. Focus on that, go all in. Forget about reading every blog post in your niche searching for inspiration. Forget about scrolling through YouTube for hours searching for content ideas. Allocate time for research, time for writing, and time for editing.
Your pillar tasks are:
⭐Research(which includes title planning and searching for information for your blog posts)
⭐Writing
⭐Editing
You will obviously need to market your content however, take it one step at a time. Go all in, create!
If you apply the 100 percent rule, you should be able to identify the most important tasks. If you are going 99 percent, you will most likely spend your time watching Netflix…
