4. Mastermind Group and Mentors – Join a mastermind group of people who are more successful than you. Learn to model the habits of these successful people. Remember to model do not copy. If you want to make $40k per month learn from someone who has done it. Do your due diligence to find the right group for you.
5. Choose happiness – Happiness is a choice that you make every day. Do not wait for happiness. I have made this mistake before. I would say when I reach this goal, buy a house, or get that car I will be happy. Happiness is a present activity and does not live in the future. Happiness is a mental habit that you must develop.
