I’m often the first to yell from the rooftops about how there are no shortcuts in life or work.
And this is absolutely true for 99.9% of things.
But I was chilling in a hammock recently, looking up at the clouds, reflecting on my 39 years on this planet.
I was struck by a thought.
I have taken some shortcuts. I mean, they’re kind of shortcuts. They certainly made life far easier for me, and saved me potentially years of pain.
What were those ‘shortcuts?’
So I wrote a list, that I will share with you now:
1. Learn directly from someone who has done something similar to what you want to do.
You can avoid the mistakes they made and make time.
Find a mentor in person or via their books and courses.
Eliminate brain fog food.
You are slowed greatly by insulin-spiking foods like bread, refined sugar and pasta.
Nutrient-dense food that leads to a more stable mood like steak and eggs is a performance cheat.
