Celebrate Your "Wins" and "Wishes"

Surround yourself with the things that inspire you: objects which mark the passage of time, trophies which remind you of your accomplishments, examples of what you wish to become and where you’re headed.

Display these things prominently, proudly. Dedicate a corner of your office. Turn your workspace into a creative refuge.

Imagine how pumped you would be when starting the work day if, instead of old Coke bottles, bills, and client artifacts greeting you, you beheld a tidy, uncluttered space nicely arranged with memorabilia and aspirational images of world travel, art, or office decor.

In order to achieve the life outcome you desire, you must visualize your future self. And it’s a lot easier to do that when the “vibe” surrounding your future self is part of your everyday now environment. We are naturally creatures of habit. Given a lack of thought, we will do the same things and go to the same places over and over again. By adding physical reminders of what you want to focus on, you shorten the distance between your reality and your destiny.
