and you're not really going to think about work the rest of the night maybe you know that you're going to a nice dinner you're enjoying whatever it is but the point is when you finish up with your office work you know whether that's you're starting an online business and you know that you're finished with your work blocks for the day I want you to sign off in whatever way that works best for you you know I've tried a bunch of stuff I've assigned my non-negotiable tasks for the next day which is just one or two things that I have to do non-negotiables and then three to five nice to haves but the point is if I finish those one or two non-negotiables the entire day is a success in my mind so I've done that but not scheduled you know hour by hour and then I've gone to the point in the past where I've scheduled literally hour blocks you know I'm doing this every single hour and I follow a strict sort of hourly schedule things will change for you as time goes on you'll find the flow that works best for you you know these days I just set my one or two non-negotiables and then the nice to haves because my schedule is always moving and I started my first entrepreneurial Adventure 10 years ago at this point so I really trust myself to know how to sort of morph and change my schedule depending on whatever the day can throw at me so as I said whether that's written on pen and paper whether that's in the notes section of your phone or your computer whatever works best for you there's no right or wrong answer here the point is when you finish up your work for the day go ahead and plan the next day there's some crazy things that happen while you sleep and there's some crazy things that happen overnight your brain is going to sort of mle over and your brain subconsciously is going to start thinking about the problems and problems I mean that in a positive way the challenges the puzzles that you have to go through the next day and how you can do it as efficiently as possible so plan the following day the night before and that leads perfectly into the third thing that helped me make my first million dollars and that is never ever wake up and not know what you're going to do in the gym as a workout and that kind of ties into planning the night before the night before I would actually plan my workout now these days in the morning I do a lot of tennis I do boxing you know I have my coaches my one-on-one coaches so they kind of lay out my full protocol I don't need to do too much thinking there but yeah really it's very very important that the night before you already know what you're doing in the gym once again this all kind of ties into the fact that your brain is going to be stimulated and it's going to start thinking okay I need to do this tomorrow I need to do that tomorrow and it's going to start working in the background and in my experience it's not going to be a thing that keeps you up or you have tough time sleeping it's just there and your mind's kind of working in the background to already start as I said solving some of these problems thinking about the workout how things are structured etc etc so as I said night before or at a minimum at least when you wake up in the morning plan out your workout just make sure you don't go in the gym you're in the gym you're looking around you know oh what do I do because training takes willpower and that's already Zapped half of your willpower for the next day now the fourth thing and this was massive for me and still to this day is massive is turn your phone on airplane mode I actually know which one of my friends turn their phone on airplane mode because half the time when I message them it doesn't show it's delivered it just shows it's sent and for me airplane mode is a very good sign that someone respects their time it's a very good sign that someone understands that listen I'm going to affect the world I don't want the world to affect me now if you're in a line of work let's say for example you're a real estate agent where you need to be on the phone talking to people 24/7 this that like I'll be honest I'm on calls maybe hours a day on my phone talking to my leadership groups inside of my different companies but obviously I'm in a fortunate position where I've been running my businesses for so long where I kind of decide when we have the phone call but as I said I empathize that for some people they do need to you know they really do make money from their phone and being uh accessible quite often and you know really being accessible to other people but for the people that aren't protect your time put your phone on airplane mode and you know even if you do make your money from being accessible at a certain point let's say even just for your workout just your workout alone you know let that 30 minute 45 minute 60 Minute 90 minute whatever it is let that time be your peaceful time put your phone on airplane mode relax leave it give 100% to what you're doing so yeah I remember uh probably the first few few years that I started my my first serious business I had my phone on airplane mode half the day and I actually had two phones and these days I have definitely a lot more than two phones you know these are just some on my desk I have quite a few more in my vaults but back then I had two phones and you could even do like a an iPod Touch in an iPhone and I used to put my phone on airplane mode and anything else that I needed for example audible uh Spotify while I was working out uh even access to Uber I would just have that on the second phone or you know as I said you could do iPod touch or whatever it is that works best for you and I would have that as my additional thing where essential Services I could have on that and then the other phone could just be put away and once I was done with my serious work the non-negotiables for the day then I could access my other phone so by the way the whole idea of airplane mode is really just protecting your time safekeeping your time and making sure that you are your priority and that's really what I did when it came to social media advertising platforms obviously the first real business that I had was an advertising agency that I had for 6 years and you know I always used to tell people around on me you know even in movies the drug dealers will say you know never use your own product I always viewed social media and the internet like that like I want to be someone who's benefiting from this and not someone else benefiting from my attention and that's why turning your phone on airplane mode that's why limiting your social media use is just so so incredibly important now the last habit that helped me make my first million and I know this sounds simple but I know that 99% of you guys don't do this drink one liter of water first thing in the morning and make sure that that water is by bedside or somewhere in your room so you don't procrastinate because this is something to this day I still struggle with uh for me just drinking water is just so boring so tedious that's literally the reason for one of my company's big day where we have a line of hydration products whether that be our can for our electrolyte sachet but yeah the point is drink water first thing in the morning and also make sure preferably to put an electrolyte packet in there I'm not even trying to plug my product because it's sold out and I don't really know when it's going to be back in sock so whether it be a big b day electrolyte sachet one other company or what I used to do back in day is just a little sprinkle of sea salt and sometimes I'd squeeze some lemon in there as well but the point is as you're drinking you know so much water first thing in the morning just try to get a little bit of salt in so that way you actually retain the water because a lot of times you'll drink the water but because you've lost so much sweat people don't realize how much sweat and salt you lose while you're sleeping whether it's warm whether it's cold it doesn't matter you still sweat a lot while you sleep so it's really important just to get a bit of sodium in the morning people don't realize the water that we drink these days they've stripped out all of the minerals and everything from it so as I said drinking water is not enough you have to remineralize it and as I said whether you want to use electrolyte sachet or literally just some cheap sea salt and sprinkle that in there the point is first thing in the morning make sure you are hydrating properly and as I said I know this sounds so simple but up until a year ago and literally creating a brand new company just to make a product that fits my needs I even struggled with this so that's really the fifth and final thing well actually you know what I'm going to say one more thing about this most you guys are banging so many coffees first thing in the morning you're you know you're having a double espresso a venty cold brew blah blah all this that won't do anything you need to hydrate first you need to drink first you need to just drink some water first get some fluids in your system so ladies and gentlemen those are the five simple habits that made me a millionaire and by the way I want to be very honest with you guys I have to revisit these habits all the time and even my life because obviously as you go further and further along your journey you know each phase of your life demands a different thing from you there's um you know in your free time go watch go watch the Jeff Bezos interview he did in 2023 where he basically broke down his life and a lot of it he said is oh I wake up and I just kind of like hang around for a couple hours I just read newspaper I eat breakfast I go for a walk like I just float and I think also he woke up at 8:00 or 9:00 a. m. like even me I wake up at 9:00 a.
m. because I'm on call sometime until 2: or 3:00 because most of my employees are in America so with time zone issues living in Dubai you know I'm not the perfect ideal spitting image of wake up at 5:00 a. m.
Club wake up at 6. am Club I am doing the thing that makes sense for my current stage in my career and my life and you are going to need to adapt and mold and do the same for you you know there was points in my life I used to wake up at 5:00 a. m.
used to wake up at 6:00 a. m.
