    Compound interest is the eighth wonder of the world. He who understands it, earns it … he who doesn’t … pays it.

    Albert Einstein

    Compounding is not just about money. It’s also about your habits in life.

    A good habit practiced everyday or a bad habit happening everyday will lead you to drastically different places.

    A small walk around the block.

    A weekly phone call to a friend or loved one.

    Having a beer after work.

    Having a cigarette to release.

    Brushing or not brushing your teeth.

    Investing or not investing a small amount of money each month.

    Each of your habits compounded overtime can lead you to the life you’ve always dreamt of or a hell you never want to go.

    noiz viol8ion blog #813 – Trends

    Some days are up and some are down. There is no telling what is going to be a good day vs a bad day. Sometimes this extends to a good or bad week, month or even year. Momentum is picked up because we think each second, minute, day, month, or year is going to be like the last.

    Zoom out and look at these trends in your life. It is easy to tell with money. Do you have more or less than last year, 5 years, 10 years?

    What about your happiness? Relationships? Your health?

    If any of these are trending in the wrong direction then do everything you can to change it. Stack a few good days together and then stack some good weeks together. Make the bad days out of the ordinary and make the good ones extraordinary.

    Wake up, Work, Eat, Sleep, Repeat

    If you are not careful this sequence can be painful or beautiful. It is easy to fall into bad habits just because its easy.

    Everyday there are decisions like what time to wake up, where you are going to work, what are you going to eat, what to do with your time and when you are going to bad.

    These decisions must be made everyday. If you don’t have a plan you may default into whatever is easiest and this isn’t what is best. What is best for who you want to become?

    A day missed can be a huge deal. A date missed early in a relationship. A day missed early in a new job. A training session missed when starting a new workout. In the beginning one day can make or break where you will go from there. Until you have great habits then a day missed can cause a whole collapse if you let it. Missing a day or an appointment can lose someone’s trust. Work so hard that you can miss a day.

    noiz viol8ion blog #635 – Who Are You?

    You are not who you think you are?

    You are not who others think you are?

    You are what you repeatedly do. You are your daily habits.

    If you are self aware enough to see your habits and know how to install new habits then you can change your life. You can repeat habits that will lead you to your wildest dreams. If you know what habits to install then you can be the healthiest, happiest, wealthiest and loving person.

    noiz viol8ion blog #634 – More Leads to More

    The more you do something the more you will continue to do it. Remember this when you are trying to do more or less of something.

    The more you do something the more you will do it. The more you do something the easier it is to do. Remember this.

    It can be just as easy to create bad habits as it is good habits.

    The moment adversity strikes is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. Will you self deprecate? Automatically blame yourself for something going wrong? Or accept the fact that nothing is perfect? No one can be perfect every time. Everyone falls off the horse but not everyone gets back on.

    There are many different you’s. There is the you that you were. The you that you are now. Then there is the you that you are becoming. The most important you is the you you are becoming. It is extremely important to be crystal clear on the you. When you are clear where you want to go and who you want to be then you can be clear on what you need to do to get there. In the moment ask yourself, “Is what I am doing bringing me closer or further than who I want to become?”

    You are sound asleep, dreaming one of the best dreams you’ve ever had. Then suddenly there is a noiz in the background. The noiz is getting louder and louder. It’s not in your dream its the alarm clock and it’s time for you to wake up in the morning. You do your best to ignore the alarm and continue the dream but the sound is overpowering. If you could just stay in bed then everything would be alright. Eventually, the sound is too much to bear.

    Do you hit snooze and try to continue this dream?

    You know yourself and have already mitigating the snooze by placing the alarm clock on the otherside of the room. You must throw off the covers and feel the crisp air against your skin is like electricity going through your body. You graciously stumble across the room and silence the alarm. Success!

    You have won the first battle of the day and have defeated the alarm clock monster. Your daily quest has just begun.
