A man wakes up, has his coffee and then he checks his email on the phone.  Right there and then, he’s started his day in REACTION MODE.  That’s BAADD.  The problem is that his inbox is chock full of “other’s agendas”.  Not His.  The first error is that he’s checking his email first thing in the morning.  The second error is not having HIS OWN AGENDA for the day set first.

I like Brendan Burchard.  He’s got great books and a YouTube Channel with some great videos.  You should definitely check him out.  In one of his videos, he was talking about some very similar stuff to what I’m always talking about.  He describes two specific types of people: The Strivers and The Stragglers.

Strivers get things done.  They make things happen.  They take personal responsibility for their results and life.  They have a vision, know where they’re going and what they need to do each day to be a success.

Stragglers on the other hand are reactors.  They live each day in reactive mode.  They respond to other’s wants and needs.  They don’t stop for a few minutes to chart out what they need to do each day to move the needle forward in their life.  Here’s a couple tips Brendon dished out:

1. Own your morning – Stats have shown that on the first hour of each day, if you avoid email, keep off the phone and all the social sites then you’ll be 30% more productive.  That’s a game changer.  Checking into email is reactive.  Checking out of email and into your own agenda and purpose will change everything for you.
   
2. Protect that time religiously – Pick two blocks of time during every day.  The time frame doesn’t really matter.  Even if you can only do two 15 minutes blocks then do that.  If you can do a couple of two hour blocks then do that.  Within these two time blocks that you’ve created there will be no distractions.  Just create and contribute.  Do what you set out for that day.  Implementing just this tip can take you from zero to hero.  From unprofitable, not having made a dollar yet to making ‘quit your job’ profits.

So, are you a Straggler or a Striver?  You should be aiming to be a Striver.  I know you’ve got it in you.  I know it can be tough to set your own agenda.  To know what you’ve actually got to do each day that will bring you close to your dream lifestyle.

That’s where The Click Funnels System comes in and it’s one of the many reasons why it’s so powerful.

You’re given a plan and a coach and you’ll know exactly what you need to do to quickly be a success.  I highly recommend you to follow the couple easy steps and do it each day within your time blocks.  Then you’ll be golden.  This will work for you if you’ll just work it a bit.
