Garyvee got it right: The biggest poison in us – regret.
But I feel it’s super-tricky.
Regret is not an immediate consequence of your actions. You do or don’t do something today, & MAYBE you’ll end up regretting it years later. I feel it’s problematic because it prevents learning from the feedback of your own life.
To live a regretless life, to me, you have to learn from other people’s lives as much as your own.
An example from my storybook, I had the wrong perception of productivity. It’s something I still struggle with.
I always thought that to be productive, I needed to do & achieve something constantly. If I wasn’t working on SOMETHING, I must not be working hard enough.
This led to much self-imposed stress, criticism, self sabotage, & anxiety. Plus, I wasted time & energy addressing burnout.
I later learned from the book “Deep Work” by Cal Newport that productivity doesn’t mean “doing.” It means less mental clutter that automatically translates into quality actions & habits.
As an experiment, I started deleting my to-dos that I didn’t like or necessarily have “to-do” to eliminate mental chaos.
The major benefit I gained from my not-to-do list: increased clarity & mental stability by reducing guilt & overwhelm.
It also improved my connections with clients, coworkers, friends, & family because it prevented me from making empty promises & over commitments.
In a nutshell, I saved time, freedom, energy, inner peace, & creativity — the most treasured resources.
The “Not-to-do” Life rules for massive success i wish i followed earlier

Aristotle stated those 15 famous words. And for most of my life, I didn’t believe him.
I fought against cultivating good habits & routines because I didn’t want to feel like I had to live my life by other people’s rules. I wanted to be my own person & do my own thing. Besides, keeping a routine was hard work, right?! Know what I discovered?
Having no routine or structure is so much more draining mentally, physically, & emotionally than any routine could ever be!
By not doing the things I knew would make me better — habits like exercising, positive mindset, personal development, quality sleep, surrounding myself with high value people/uplifting environment, creating gratitude lists — I deprived my body & mind of the energy that these types of positive activities create.
I felt tired…inside & out. To make matters worse, my dreams & goals were slipping away.
A few years ago I decided to take a different path…to listen to Aristotle & WORK on creating excellence in my life by establishing a positive daily routine & intention setting ritual.
LIFE TRUTHS 1.) You will never become the person you want to be if you don’t take care of your body. 2.) You are the sum of your surroundings. 3.) A wish is not a goal. EXECUTE. 4.) The most important relationship you have is with yourself. The beauty is in the mess. EMBRACE it. 5.) Rich is in the eye of the beholder. 6.) The most important food in the world is soul food. Your life is a field of dreams. And like a farmer, you only reap an abundant harvest if you nurture the soil.
Tips on how I optimize a more peaceful, successful, & abundant af life!
Work smarter not harder.
@instacart & @amazon prime same day delivery. Saves time, money, stress, & energy. Allows you to get other sh*t done during your day without having to run errands.
Workout 1st thing in the morning. Get up early. Have a success routine nailed down. No excuses. Walk after meals, set an alarm every 20-30 minutes to get up & walk around, take the stairs, & park further back in parking lots.
Get easy tasks & must do‘s done 1st. Work 1st, play later.
Use clear storage bins & containers to help organize closets, shelves, cabinets, pantry’s & drawers. Purge every week unnecessary items & any items attached to old energy no longer serving you.
Organize shelves, cabinets, drawers, pantry’s, & closets by color. It creates a beautiful aesthetic look & you know exactly where to find things.
Clean 1 area of your home every day. No dirty dishes in the sink. Make your bed. Declutter. Simplicity is bliss.
Get movement & steps in while your food cooks. Sometimes I do a mini workout with bodyweight or dumbbells while my meat Airfrys
If you travel often, have pre-packed bags with essentials ready to grab & go. I have an overnight bag with me at all times, kept in my car & closet.
I lay clothes out for the next day, brush my teeth in the shower, set my coffee on auto brew. It speeds up the process.
I delegate things I don’t like to do or hire it done.
Have ready to go meals or snacks. I keep a freezer full of meat & packets of tuna just in case I don’t have time to go to the store. My go to‘s traveling are stopping to grab a rotisserie chicken or plain burger patties or chicken breasts at a fast food restaurant if I have to.
Outer order, inner calm. An organized clean environment welcomes & attracts more abundance.
The most successful people are organized, honest, service driven, prioritize their health & education, & communicate effectively.
I spend my time working on improving my health, environment, attracting wealth, educating myself & others, & embracing different ways to utilize my gifts to better other peoples lives.
