If you're not utilizing COMPOUNDING GAINS, you're leaving progress on the table.

Why You Should Be Obsessed With COMPOUNDING GAINS

[THREAD - 2 min read]

You’ve probably heard the phrase “the spoils go to the riches.”

This is COMPOUNDING GAINS in action.

Investing can get you compounding interest. Investing in yourself can get you COMPOUNDING GAINS.

COMPOUNDING GAINS is acquiring more because you have more.

Utilizing COMPOUNDING GAINS is important for your business, personal brand, and life.

If you’re already working out and dressing well, it is easier to start a business and make money.

If you have 100 customers, you can more easily target new customers.

If you have 500 followers, it is easier to build up to 1,000 than it was to get to 500 (wink wink).

If you have less, it’s also easier to lose more.

Opposite the idea of COMPOUNDING GAINS is COMPOUNDING LOSSES.

Have you ever seen someone whose life is spiraling out of control?

He is overweight. His girlfriend just broke up with him. His job is next to go.

These are the results.

Have you considered how he might have gotten to this point?

It might have started with eating chips over chicken.
It might have started with watching Netflix over going to the gym.
It might have started with partying instead of figuring out his mission.

“Hard choices, easy life. Easy choices, hard life.” –Jerzy Gregory

How does this apply to you?

First, aim to capitalize on your strengths.

Figure out what your UNFAIR ADVANTAGE is.

What are you better at than most people? Because you already have the advantage, it is easier to COMPOUND GAINS.

Next, make sure you are working consistently to improve.

That does not mean self-help books.

That means actually doing stuff to get yourself to the next level for YOUR specific goal.

It could mean working out.

It could mean tweaking your website. It could mean tweeting.

For one person, these tasks could be improvements. For another, they could be a distraction.

Only YOU know what working means.

(Hint: Work does not have to “feel” like work.)

And lastly, ignore your feelings.

Consistency over everything.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to go to the gym. It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to work on your business. If you have set goals, you must show up.

Because you have to put in the work day-in, day-out if you want COMPOUNDING GAINS.

You might not see the work you do today until years down the line.

Don’t let that stop you from making COMPOUNDING GAINS.

/FIN.
