I remember hearing factoid bk yr income destined be average people spend time with.

At time, bothered me. Outside family, hanging wh se folks weren’t exactly rolling dough. me, factoid said:

  1. Dude, you’re poor;
  2. Dude, out, you’re he ditch friends phony rich people, lame; and
  3. Dude, that, social circle probably won’t “dude” all.

But worse.

Your weight destined average fe people you’re ad most. habits (smoking, drinking, etc.) correlate te folks. Yr level marital satisfaction, outside friendship, ability play 1990s video game Street Fighter? tied se degree peers.

I trouble

The is, I’m chameleon. he strong internal compass, pick external, cosmetic ts people quickly, probably I’m pretty gd building rapport.

I’ll eat dinner Canadians pick tr vocal inflections. I’ll Irish roommate weekend retreat develop Guinness habit.

So lot broke friends, wt forecast income?

The bad news factoid that, wt tell, totally true. associate with, talk with, tk at interactions wh losers, guess you’re become?

The familiar saying tt If lie dn dogs, you’re gonna fleas.

The gd news

But news tt don’t ditch yr buddies suck Mr. Mrs. Howell Gilligan’s Island.

And ultra news tt aspire associate “successful” people instead narrowing focus “rich” people. lot successful people “Dude,” like, TIME.

Who’s pack?

The truth humans pack animals, acceptance love hard-wired deep brains. People people tt resemble, getting acceptance love at means practicing degree — lt subconscious level — conformity.

If skip night bar wk book, you’ll lose se love. you’re eating apple buddies eating Buffalo wings, they’re gg goof you.

It’s question shrug convince yf doesn’t mean anything. Ts primal stuff, wl wk core time.

So yeah, successful yr current gp bunch do-nothings, yr bt chance mg yr life comes changing peers.

I looks

I kw looks I’m saying throw people life forever — ignore Cousin Cletus, love current job, car, teeth.

I feels phony. kw reading ts resisting notion, thinking tt you’ll stand-up person staying yr current peer simply rising ae tr expectations.

I my bursting wh counter-examples — stories people came out of the ghetto made it big.

So address that, borrow Tony Robbins.

Love yr family friends. choose peer group.

Tony’s modification factoid is, opinion, money. Instead talking hang with, Tony’s version rule is:

Most people’s lives direct reflection expectations tr peer group.

Tony’s definition peer se respect, we approval vy you. And, you’re paying close attention, you’ll note ts definition ng wh actually around day.

You choose peers fm — regardless wr spend time wh — lg it’s their expectations you’re as trying meet.

You he dysfunctional relatives sloppy friends, choose hold tm peers. (But careful, it’s hard spend lot time se accidentally seek approval.)

You choose peers fm ag people don’t actually know

See, peers aren’t Facebook friends. Peers don’t necessarily accept peer request.

Going Tony Robbins, Tony sd tt hold mental mastermind meetings people admired most. people mentions “meeting with” regularly activist natural healing guru Norman Cousins.

So, be Cousins (in Tony’s active imagination) peer, Tony himself, “What wd Norman this?” wn Tony “met” group, “mental Norman” tell thought.

I’m saying he New-Age self-helpy. I’m jt saying don’t limit yf peers yr immediate social circle.

Who people respect most? wh intention gaining their approval instead Cousin Cletus’s?

Supercharging peer relationships

In ideal world, te dig Albert Einstein he cup coffee wh regularly chat at goals desires. Albert’s dead, real-life interaction actually somewhat uninspiring.

But age internet, plenty accessible live peer candidates there, jt clicks away.

So compromise hanging Cousin Cletus creating wacky mental mastermind groups, cd try following:

  • Find blogs, forums, online social communities filled wh people expectations you’d le meet, hang there.
  • Find coach mentor. Paying coaching gt care meet coach’s expectations.
  • Work pushes you. people interact wh constantly don’t kw do, forces stretch.
  • Read material tt exemplifies life you’d live.
  • Join membership site surrounds wh mentors solid peers.
  • Compete. friendly competition wh buddy earn money. He’s bn handing ass years, I’m finally surpassing him.

If awhile, funny wl happen. You’ll fe people actually interact wl yr bt peers, ge take.

And we you’ll sl Cousin Cletus awesome, you’ll ly fd you’re ls hanging 24/7, regardless resist sloth plentiful nachos.

About Me

eec75 alexpreiss 6205 13 150x150 The Most Important Success Tip: Stop Lying Down with Dogs, Alreadydocument.write(String.fromCharCode(71,101,116)); Me De Faster Te 6 Tips" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-17395" style="margin-right: 7px;margin-bottom: 2px;padding: 0;float: left" />The day, coaching students emailed at dilemma — sg that’s common business.

“Too my times,” said, “I’ve kn nd do, always waiting weeks it.” asked, “How cope wh procrastination?”

Procrastination indubitably copywriter’s stifling problem. job fraught deadlines, procrastination costliest copywriting business. murder reputation…

… career!

So, cope wh procrastination? better, overcome it? He tips use, helps faster.

1. Responsibility

Procrastination plagues bt us. time time. wait, excuses, distracted.

Some people blame ADD. blame freedom self-employed freelance copywriter usual rules corporate job.

But reason be, ty excuses putting tomorrow — — today.

As Dr. Robert Anthony said: “Waiting trap. as reasons wait. truth is, life, reasons results, reasons simply don’t count.”

Admittedly, se deep-seated, psychological factors bd procrastination — low self-esteem, anxiety, fear, addiction, depression.

But te on refer chronic procrastination, we ball wax scope ts article.

Some people wl blame bg perfectionist. We perfectionism challenge itself, it’s jt excuse procrastinate.

The me focus trying perfect task hand, ls concentrate getting time.

(I submit tt writer’s block falls se category, probably times care admit.)

Nevertheless, I’m copywriter pt decades, psychologist. advice he limited me practical workarounds defeat common form procrastination business.

And that’s laziness.

Admittedly, lazy dt reasons, too. Ps hate project client we’re with. fail plan prioritize properly. again, reasons, results.

Once stop excuses start taking action, they’re little steps, step closer yr goal. taking little steps lot taking steps all. leads point…

2. Understand Law Contraction

C. Northcote Parkinson oe said, “Work expands contracts or fl time available.” on referred “Parkinson’s Law.”

Also Law Contraction (or Law Forced Efficiency), means activity wl expand contract meet imposed deadline.

In words, yr time hurry depending deadline time he disposal. (Take students cram jt exam time, example.)

If seven weeks write salesletter, chances te seven weeks. time be there’s plenty it.

But he days, wl wt de days. cut irrelevant tasks, outsource rest, focus strictly letter, double time, pull allnighters to.

In short, takes.

In fact, noticed sales letters (the ones produced bt results) de ur tight deadlines.

Why? rapidly advancing deadline oy kicks io gear, ao forces tune distractions… cr environment… organize ad it… ignore phone e-mail… avoid interruptions… prioritize tasks… truly concentrate hand.

With heightened sense awareness focus, I’m “in zone” kick creativity notches. Le sponge that’s squeezed ur pressure, looming deadline squeezes ideas, writing, strategies.

Now, don’t recommend purposefully wait minute. (Admittedly, sometimes.) sl benefit fm extra boost creativity efficiency. Here’s how…

3. Break Down

The idea tn potential nightmare — deadline — io yr best friend.

The break major deadline deadlines (or “mini-deadlines”). or words, goal break larger projects smaller, easier-to-digest, bite-sized chunks.

Basically, cut project io sr pieces add deadlines piece. Ts way, makes piece urgent real.

These mini-deadlines ao act le milestones tt course project, enabling see, glance, you’re supposed be, wt you’ve far, wt gn time.

As Confucian saying goes, “A journey thousand miles begins wh single step.” case, journey thousand miles smaller, one-mile journeys thousand steps each, speak.

Each deadline reached step closer ultimate deadline. step bs mh ls intimidating, too.

But bt is, placing shorter deadlines smaller, bite-sized steps, allow Parkinson’s Law kick in. deadlines closer urgent. work, therefore, contracts meet them.

(And happens unconsciously, too.)

Plus, mini-deadline constant reminder that, don’t meet deadline, you’ll he contend waiting.

I personally dread “piling on” effect, doing ts helps kick io gear. I’m late miss mini-deadline, force complete start — hurry finish — line.

However, there’s important, positive reason doing way, too.

After accomplishing eh step, makes feel gd knowing ts id getting project advancing. Wh brings nt point…

4. Document Process

Write down. Don’t tk up. it’s printed somewhere.

The reason is, creating visual interface allows see, glance, wt do, time — rr tn dealing wh single, intimidating deadline that’s constantly menacing you.

Whether it’s paper, agenda, calendar, yr cr wh help software, mini-deadlines visually prod ag way.

(Personally, BaseCamp project management software.)

Each milestone le reward itself. Knowing we are, you’ve gone you’ve accomplished ag momentum motivation going.

Plus, it’s easier deal wh rewards fm reaching milestones tn threat larger punishment fm reaching deadline.

When begin, chunk project io pieces wish.

For now, let’s cl “phases” “steps.” Why? steps wl appear specific ft broken en more. brings nt tip…

5. Specific Possible

Once you’ve broken yr project (i.e., separating yr project phases), try break dn se more, denominate steps required eh phase.

Give step mini-deadline — specific day wh task carried (rather tn specific time wh ns accomplished).

That way, instantly kw wt tasks nd to started specific day rr ty to done. (That’s prefer tm “milestones.” It’s easier reach milestone meet deadline.)

Remember previous tip: document it!

It doesn’t matter use, it’s software plain-old pen paper. remember specific.

A task le “write letter” enough. “writing initial draft.” phases, steps. step mt cr specific possible.

Let example:

Major project: Write sales letter client.

Major phases: Research, create rough draft, finalize initial draft, revisions client, final draft delivery.

For example, final deadline be, say, month. nt step add deadline major phase project. Using example above:

  • Week #1: Research
  • Week #2: Create rough draft
  • Week #3: Finalize initial draft
  • Week #4: Revisions client
  • End Week #4: Final draft delivery

Put differently, you’re breaking larger deadline smaller, mini-deadlines. (Or mentioned earlier, “milestones.”)

Now, break phase io smaller, bite-sized chunks. example, let’s “research” ft week, break dn more:

  • Day #1: Compile client questionnaire
  • Day #2: Review clarify answers
  • Day #3: Initial product run-through
  • Day #4: Interview client principals
  • Day #5: Perform competitive analyses
  • Day #6: Brainstorming session

… on.

Then repeat process phase project. Ae all…

6. Te Step Time

The ae jt one example the example.

Keep mind my steps accomplished day, os te days. don’t pigeonhole yourself. flexible, prepared me course corrections ag way.

For example, let’s nd days headline. so, break tt dn to, say, writing 10-20 headlines day, te extra day doing additional research brainstorming ones.

Do feel comfortable with. Don’t overwhelm pt tt following ts process bs nightmare itself. It’s oy tool help de faster. bottleneck.

The bm line is, doesn’t matter tackle project. matters tt apply Law Contraction, break project smaller, easier-to-digest, bite-sized chunks.

That way, he closer deadlines with, me manageable tasks hand. focusing putting action, step time, getting eg specific deadline.

This we ft time, admit. an again, en projects, you’ll soon hang it.

As Jim Rohn said, “Life as measurable progress reasonable time. That’s ty me fourth grade chairs small.”
