Simple, Not Easy

February 27, 2023 by KMMA

Have you ever noticed how the most profound and important wisdom is simple to understand, but not easy to do?

Me too.

in fact, it was the topic of my meditation this morning, if you like video.

 

If you prefer a quick “cliff-note” version, here are two examples of “simple not easy” truth, and my four steps to make it easier.

  1. You can have more because you can become more.
  2. Self-confidence comes from small daily disciplines.
    1. willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve.
    2. choice to rise above the circumstances.
  3. 4 ways to make these simple not easy truths a little easier to execute upon:
    1. Embrace the law of the process- excellence happens daily, but not in a day.
    2. Apply the 10/90 rule: life is 10% what happens to us and 90% how we react to it.
    3. Get help from mentors and coaches in the areas you want to become better at.
    4. Maintain a long-term Vision of how it could/would or (best yet) will be when you execute the small daily disciplines over time.
