The 1st Seven Minutes of Each Day
Listen up…this is your coach speaking. One of the most important daily action steps is that you read your Why Card for the first seven minutes of your day. It is of the highest importance that you spend the first seven minutes of every day reading your Why card. That’s right. When you wake up in the morning, the first thing that you MUST do is read your Why Card. It’s called the “Why Rollover.” Rollover, grab your Why card and read it! Imagine reading your Why Card the first seven minutes of your day instead of picking your cell phone up, checking your email, clicking on TV and watching everything bad that is happening in the world. Isn’t your Why more important to you than those things? Start internalizing your Why. Start meditating on it for seven minutes early in the morning when you get up. This meditation period will set your day on fire! It will add a snap to your step and a smile to your face, because you know your Why. You know why you do what you do every single day and that you will ultimately achieve your Why in life!
Write this down and say it out loud:
“I have decided that I will read my Why Card every morning for the first seven minutes of my day. I will internalize my Why and feel my heart grow full of joy, excitement, determination, and creativity every day because I know my Why!” The Last Thing Every Night

Before our journey continues, we are going to begin recreating your defaults. Remember, this is a constant battle, and many people give up. Your default settings are very strong so you need to be even stronger in re-programming your life. Let’s get started. I want you to commit right now to doing this exercise every time you are led to fall back into your negative defaults. You must say out loud, “I am a Champion by birthright, and I will not let my negative defaults control my successful future.” Will you do this? Say it one more time just to get you comfortable with resetting your defaults.
“I am a Champion by birthright, and I will not let my negative defaults control my successful future!” Kick the Chicken! Your negative defaults also known as “the past” will control your future only if YOU let them. The past tends to bind shackles around your ankles that hold you down as you try to proceed on your success journey. Close your eyes and imagine five hundred pound chains around each of your ankles as your pursuing your dream. It’s impossible! You and only you can make the decision to rip the chains of your past (your default settings) off your ankles and start walking free from what has been holding you down all these years.
Many years ago, a minister gave a great illustration of this truth. He said that when farmers take chickens to the market, they will often tie their ankles and lay them in the bed of their truck for the ride to the sale barn. This prevents them from flying out of the truck. When they arrive at the sale barn, he will take them out of the truck, place them on the ground, and then cut the cords, releasing them to get up. But, the chickens won’t get up! They think they’re still bound at their ankles so they just lay there.
The farmer has to actually kick them so they flutter and finally get up. He went on to say that we must “kick the chicken” in ourselves in order to get out of our incapacities. So, kick the chicken in yourself. Your ankles are free! As you go forward, don’t use your past to determine your future. Do not make excuses based on your past. Burn the bridge to your past mistakes and limitations. Remember: If the bridge to your past is burned behind you, then you have no choice but to travel the path into a successful future. Develop your Why in life and begin to achieve things in life that you’ve only dreamed about. Remember, choosing success over failure is your decision.

Are you tired of making all of those New Year’s resolutions, and then breaking them on January 2nd? Are you ready to learn how to finally turn your New Year’s resolutions into New Year’s results? The key word here is “new”, because you want to create “new” results. You must analyze your old year that has passed and your future, which means do not think “re-run/replay” instead think about forging forward into the New Year. In order to create “New Year” results, you must decide to analyze, develop and implement.
Spend about 60 minutes of uninterrupted time analyzing the last 12 months of your life. Examine exactly what you did over the last 365 days to create the results that you have now. Don’t worry about these results and don’t complain about them either. Simply analyze them and understand that you are exactly where you are today because of your actions over the past year. That’s right, your actions created your results in 2004. Your actions turned into your decisions that produced the results that your are experiencing.
Now, are you satisfied with your results in from last year? If not, then how do you turn your New Year’s resolutions into results? You must implement NEW action steps. New actions steps will create new decisions that will produce your new results. Analyze what you did every day to develop these new action steps. Look at your business. How large is your business? Have you prospected enough? Have you attended enough seminars? Have you invested enough money into personal self development? Are you a member of the motivational club? Have you taken advantage of all that’s available for you to produce the results that you want?
If you are not happy with your results from last year, then just imagine where you will be at the end of this year if you continue to take the same actions and make the same decisions. It doesn’t matter what kind of resolutions you make if you don’t develop NEW daily action steps.
I challenge you to forget about those New Year’s Resolutions; instead, analyze last year’s results then develop and implement New Daily Actions that will lead to New Decisions and produce New Results for your New Year!
