86Thousand400: The 5AM Club (4)

The Lifetime Habit Arc

The trigger The ritual The reward The repetition

You become undefeatable in the world by what you do when no-one’s watching Rest and recovery are key for self control. Never allow it to get too tired. Your will power really is weakest when you are most tired +dad

The Habit Installation Protocol

66 Day Minimum to The Automaticity Point 1st 22 Days: Deconstruction, Stage 1 2nd 22 Days: Installation, Stage 2 3rd 22 Days: Integration, Stage 3

Stick with the 5AM Club for 66 Days, no matter what and the rest of your life will be exponentially better. This I promise you from the bottom of my heart A Space shuttle uses more fuel in the first 60 seconds after liftoff than it uses over the entire orbit around the earth. Overcome the powerful forces of gravity at the start You need to rise above your own forces of gravity in those first 22 days Continue at all costs. Persistency sits at the threshold of mastery When faced with a choice, always choose the one that pushes you the most, increases your growth and promotes the unfoldment of your gifts, talents and personal prowess The first 2 days are supposed to feel like a mild form of torture ‘The Dark night of the Soul’ What was once a caterpillar is messily - yet almost magically - becoming a butterfly. Deep and real change is a journey involving a series of deaths ‘The old you must die so a better you can be reborn’ ‘For you to upgrade to greatness you must undergo an annihilation of your weakness’ +worktowardsyourweaknesses The illusion of safety is always so much more deadly than your rise towards personal mastery. Just know that unfathomable rewards are coming The primary purpose of life is growth: to be continuously pushing yourself to materialise more of your potential. Boredom kills the human spirit The real gift from your excellence and devotion over the 66 days: the willpower you were using to lay down the early rising habit is now freed up for another world class behaviour One habit instillation after another habit installation is how the pros play +createthehabit Over time their winning behaviours became automated. Systemised. Institutionalised. Absolutely no effort required to run them once they got hard wired Awesome takes patience and genius takes time “Nothing as valuable as my happiness. Nothing as priceless as my peace of mind” ‘Those who hurt other silently loathe themselves’ Perhaps it’s when we face losing everything that we come to know our grandest selves +dontwait +timewaitsfornoone Leaders run less by the selfish addictions of the ego and more by the selfless dictate of our greater wisdom +godeep Optimising one’s self is the best way to improve the state of the world +95thpercentile

To Make a Routine Stick

To make a habit last, never install it alone - Dejan The teacher learns the most When you most feel like quitting is the time you must continue advancing

Educating others on all you’ve shared will be a gift to yourself The moment you feel you can’t go any further lies an enormous opportunity to forge an entirely new level of willpower. When you feel you can’t continue, progress a little longer..! :) “When love beckons to you, follow him, though his ways are hard and steep. Though his sword hidden among his pinions may wound you. Though his voice may shatter your dreams as the North Winds lay waste in the garden. All these things shall love do unto you so that you know the secrets of your heart” - Prophet, Khahil Gibran A wishbone without a backbone doesn’t get you too far. Part time commitment delivers part time results The 5AM Club is the one habit - of all possible habits - that will guarantee your mighty ambition comes true. It’s the simplest finest practise I’ve encountered to translate the intentions of living gloriously into an everyday reality. Yes, dreams and desires are just wishbones. Rising before day break is your backbone to get them done Your victory hour gives you one of life’s greatest windows of opportunity. The way you start your day dramatically influences how it unfolds “Memento Homo” - Remember you are only a man Procrastination is an act of self hatred Failing to keep self promises is one of the reasons so many of us don’t love ourselves. Not following through on what we tell ourselves we’ll do so destroys our sense of personal worth and dissolves our self-esteem. Keep behaving like that and the unconscious part of you will begin to believe you’re not worth anything We always perform in a way that is aligned with the way we see ourselves. And so our thinking creates our results - Self Fulfilling Prophecy I AM GREAT! +LEGEND :) Stop putting those things off, flex those willpower muscles, and make the remainder of your life an exercise in audacity, productivity and a rare expression of beauty +74Core +CB45 +AdriaticRetreats
