Why subtraction > addition for your success

Let me ask you a question:

If you want to avoid getting cavities...

Which of these actions would have a bigger impact?

a) Giving up a 6 Coca-Cola per day habit

b) Getting teeth cleaned 2x’s per year

The answer is...

Stop drinking 6 cokes per day.

And if you want to avoid gaining weight...

Which of these actions would have a bigger impact?

a) Giving up daily post-dinner 2000 calorie binge-snacking Ben & Jerry sessions

b) Adding a green juice in the morning

The answer is...

Stop doubling your daily calorie intake after dinner.

Lesson: Delete bad > Add good

The benefits of adding a green drink or cold shower to your life are marginal compared to the benefits of removing daily drinking, toxic people, and negative environments.

Your 2-3 BAD habits have MORE of an impact on your success than 2-3 good habits.

So... Stop snoozing. Stop drinking. Stop bingeing. Stop porn-ing (is that a word?).

If you want an easy way to make your life better...

Remove the ball-and-chain holding you back.

Eliminate the negatives from life.

You really don't need more good...

You just need less bad.

So that the good can do it's work without the bad dragging you down.

Your Critical Lesson:

The weight and impact of your bad behaviors will forever hold you back.

No matter how many good behaviors you add to your Good Column...

The only way you win in the long run is to remove the negatives.

This is why I am the world’s biggest proponent of...

Sustainable Success Through Subtraction

Yes, the addition of accountability, coaching, planning, etc. can make a massive difference in life.

But if you are an alcoholic, philanderer, or a text-while-driving type of person...

Eventually the “One Big Bad Mistake” will wipe out every single one of your gains.

Success requires subtraction of the destroyers in your life.

You deserve it.

Success Loves Speed,

Craig
