Real Life Shortcuts
it's said that there are no
shortcuts in life well technically there are we essentially don't call them
that well in this article we're going more than 15 of our favorite shortcuts
that we've used all through the long haul
Number one pick the right boat
everyone secures since everyone
needs a superior life we've yet to hear someone let us know you understand what
I want more regrettable for myself outperforming everyone is certainly not a
reasonable arrangement however assuming hard work was the main answer
individuals working in coal mines would have been the most extravagant so
remember this your most memorable real life shortcut the boat you are in is
more important than how hard you section that's the reason programmers are
currently massively overpaid statistically speaking there is a gigantic
shortage of programmers worldwide there are adequately not of them so they have
leverage on what to pick for themselves there are a ton of organizations out
there that need programmers right now being in the programming boat is more
important than how good of a programmer you are or the way where hard you work
this happens everywhere you look so find the right boat and get your most
memorable shortcut
Number two built to sell
this is a business reasoning yet
it applies to individuals as well in business building to sell means doing
everything clean solid and organized nobody wants to purchase an unpredictable
business now when you think of it as you sell yourself constantly through your
life you sell yourself to a task to a mate to another gathering of companions
and so on and especially like in business nobody wants to purchase the
unpredictable messy and disorganized you this will impact both your
professional and personal relationships the way you present yourself will
always impact how others approach you build yourself to sell and the doors will
start to open up faster
Number three avoid doing unscalable things
doing one thing great one time is
admirable regardless not that valuable for example pulling an extremely
compelling all-nighter and finishing that large venture without a second to
speak of is impressive however it's not important what's important is your
ability to scale scaling means doing the work once and reaping the benefits
again and again for example an architect can build one house for one client at
one time or they can draw the plans of a pre-built house and sell the same
undertaking again and again look at you and see what you can build to scale we
remember some time ago reading an about a programmer script that took care of
his business consistently for him while he contributed his energy playing PC
games there's always something you can build to scale
Number four plus one percent daily
individuals who get to say I made
it accomplish something precise that everyone else doesn't want to do they do
the boring stuff consistently look is it stimulating to start a business or go
on your own path sure however the energy part is like 20 of it the rest is
boring repetitive work for another shortcut in life become accustomed to doing
the repetitive boring work because that work is drawing you nearer by one
percent consistently and that strengthens itself after some time do this and
you'll find yourself achieving considerably more in one year than others do in
ten
Number five personal education
the greatest shortcut in life is
personal education it has the most elevated leverage and the greatest returns
an exceptionally educated individual can associate bits that others don't for
even a second find regardless
Number six abuse 80 20.
it's way faster to build 10 good
enough things than to build one thing flawlessly the 80 20 rule is the secret
sauce that smart individuals are using to move extremely rapidly and you should
already be familiar with this at this point essentially in almost everything 20
of the efforts give 80 of the results for example in a 10 man company two
individuals finish a large portion of the work find out what that twenty
percent of work is by all accounts and make it happen fast
Number seven find a mentor
a good mentor helps you to narrow
down your best strategy they've already done what you're attempting to do
they've seen it happening they have any idea what works and what doesn't so
when the opportunity arrives they can direct you in the right direction and it
really relies upon you to take the means so whatever you're attempting to do
find someone who's already done it befriend them and be valuable to them or if
that's not a chance be a shadow mentee there are a great deal of individuals
who share their knowledge and encounters on the web so follow them learn as
much as you can from them and ask them unequivocal requests occasionally who
knows maybe they will answer
Number eight overlap good habits
find where you can hit two birds
with one stone with your habits let's say you want to start your personal
education and also further foster your health well reding rightwayhacks blog
running two birds one stone right there find your good habits whether already
present or that you wish you'd had then find an activity that hits as many of
them at the same time and you're brilliant
Number nine be loud when needed
not always the most capable
individuals succeed it's the loudest that's the reason why at times you see
ignoble individuals in, influential places they're not afraid either
deliberately or accidentally to be loud have a backbone alexa and stand your
ground know your worth and act like it remember that advancements usually go to
representatives who ask for them not necessarily the ones who merit it's the
same in life
Number 10 measure everything
look you can't further foster
what you can't measure period there's a famous statement that goes infantry
wins battles logistics wins wars now what this essentially means is that you
can't achieve something through beast force hit the rec focus as hard as you
want you're still basically going to help more slender through tracking your
caloric shortage find the right measurements and measure them aggressively
Number 11 there is no work-life balance
okay calm down with the pitchfork
companions you reding this article to find applicable shortcuts in life and
genuinely there isn't a work-life balance if you want to go fast you want to
sacrifice a couple of parts of your personal life for a short period because
hard work is not the game changer doesn't mean it's not proposed now this
probably will not be for you and that's totally fine we're just emerging with
the plain truth
Number 12 build a network or join one
one of our companions earns six
figures a year and is a free digital artist he helped the vast majority of his
ventures through his network he built his network by being present at all kinds
of occasions related to his industry and generally being a respectable
individual to talk to return to stage two and build to sell then go out there
and be loud
Number 13 when you're forced to make a change make a positive one
this is for when life tosses
curveballs at you an unpredictable occasion happened you want to change your
work or the place you live or whatever you essentially have three options
downgrade side grade or upgrade assuming that you downgrade you cut down your
lifestyle and learn to inhabit a lower level worth it if that fills a more
serious need not too far off yet, if you side grade you're just wasting time
the main real decision is to upgrade assuming you're forced to move ought to
move higher your new circumstances will set you in a situation to make it or break
it go hard or return home as they say individuals work on really fast when
their main decision is to further create use this to your own advantage this
reminds us of pewdiepie moving to japan recently and his pugs were somewhat too
round to be allowed on a commercial plane so he got a fly if you're forced to
make a play make a game-dominating play
Number 14 be genuine and kind we bet you
didn't expect this one huh being
genuine and kind is so rare these days you genuinely get surprised when you
experience it doing the right thing will always be the right thing if you're
not you're not taking any shortcuts you're compromising and there's a major
difference you can unfortunately compromise until you end up going here and
there aimlessly
Number 15 let others help you
certain individuals' internal
identity is too large to let others help them or point out their mistakes they
feel like if they let another individual help them it'll stain their reputation
as a free individual well here's reality nobody is genuinely autonomous take
advantage of opportunities and if someone offers you help, take it then help
others yourself and a reward for you
Number 16 money obviously
however, we're not talking about
the small million dollar loans we're talking about those situations when you
get an advancement or your business starts picking up pace the main thing to do
is to pay yourself last put everything into two things one tools to build up
leverage and two abilities to build up expertise the tools will make you faster
and allow you to scale the expertise increases your baseline from where you
start scaling we recently had a talk with our very own illustrator companion
who landed a major undertaking he was contemplating whether or not to
contribute a portion of that money on a greater higher performing drawing
tablet now what do you do with the money because if the answer is not accepting
the goddamn tablet you are misguided each time the opportunity to place
resources into either tools or abilities comes up always put it all out there
is no debate here okay individuals have no issue dropping 500 on certain
jordans yet shudder at the possibility of placing 500 in themselves always put
resources into yourself it has the greatest leverage
