4 Actions to Make You More Productive This Year
2022 has started, we're on day 19. Here are some tips that will help you, it helped me.
1. Avoid Unrealistic Resolutions
The sad thing is that the same set of people that made unrealistic resolutions last year have already made another for the year 2022. You promised yourself never to miss any opportunity that would bring about your financial breakthrough yet you called all opportunities presented to you scam, therefore, you never acted on any. If you are in this category and you have written why you wouldn’t miss business opportunities in 2022, I hope you've prepared your mind alongside your pen and resolution diary. I urge you to make realistic resolutions (you can rewrite if you already had one), develop the right mindset and be willing to take a calculated risk so you can achieve your year goals.
2. Keep Pushing, Never Give up
Another set of people I would like to encourage this day is those who were courageous enough to take bold steps and then give up along the way. Me dear friend, the fact you could take the good step and get started on whatever you ventured into. This shows that you have what it takes to succeed in that business, career, or craft because the most difficult which is the decision to actually get started was conquered. So you can conquer every other obstacle you meet on the way to your breakthrough.
I know you have given up or at the verge of doing so, but I urge you to pick up again and smash harder in 2022. I’m only saying this to you to make you understand that your breakthrough is near but you wouldn’t get it if you give up on yourself.
Keep pushing dearest. Push harder with the almighty abundance mindset. Push with all shades of positivity.
3. Make it your priority to recognize opportunities.
You see, some people are richer than others not because they work harder, but simply because they are working hard on better things.
The 20-year-old that is richer than a 30-year-old may not be as a result of how hard-working he is. Most times it’s simply because he's working on a better business that he doesn’t need to physically work too hard to make much money.
Make it a priority this year to find such opportunities. The world doesn’t care about how hard you work, the world only cares about your success. That’s the reason people will respect Dangote more than someone that hawks from morning till night.
This is exactly what a friend did in 2020. In Mid 2020 he was teaching mini importation on WhatsApp. He charged $5 per person then, and he doesn’t even make up to $100 per month, and damn, he worked. Actually, he overworked himself to make such a figure. But then he didn’t settle for that.
He knew there were smarter ways to make this money easier. He started searching and found affiliate marketing and went all in. Right now, he doesn’t put up half of the energy he invested into the previous business. Now the same amount he had to work so hard to make in a month from the previous business, he makes in a week in the current business.
So make it your priority this year to find such opportunities. And when you find them, don’t slack. Take massive action immediately.
4. Focus on Personal Development
Do you want to step up your game this year? What are your plans? Do you even believe in personal development through reading, training, and access to valuable information?
We have moved from scholastic education to financial education.
Here is the difference: the former will teach you how to read, write, and work for money, that’s you learn by instruction while the latter will teach you how the money will work for you.
If you are ready to commence your journey to financial breakthrough or freedom in 2022; you need financial education or literacy in acquiring skills that work for it.
So what’s a skill?
A skill is a progressive trained talent or a trained gift fashioned to position the success of one's life purpose. There are skills you need to be able to fashion your life purpose which is otherwise known as life skills. Being an entrepreneur and building a business requires a life technique.
You earn money with your skills by doing not necessarily by instruction alone.
Focusing on per. dev. is one of the greatest actions I should work on this year.
