let’s start,

Two Things You Need To Realize 

If you want a roadmap of how to get ahead of people, there are two crucial thoughts you must be brutally aware of:

1. The first is what you don’t want to become.

2. Where will you end up if you keep doing the same things that you do now?

Take a hard look at the masses (people around you) and observe where a life of thoughtless action leads. It’s an ugly reality that you don’t want any part of. And you Should know it.

To realize the first thought Don’t just accept the surface level of what you see – think deeper. 

It’s easier to know what you don’t want from experience and observation of others life. than to just imagine what you want from the future. maybe a Mercedes today that changed to Beemer next week. this thought holds no reality as of Today.

Now when I say look around you and see what trap people are in. it may feel that I’m being a little arrogant 

But give this a read: Most people are doing nothing with their lives. They wake up, go to work, do the minimum to get by, and find excuses not to pursue their real goals. procrastinating everyday

Don’t you think this aligns with the majority of people? But here is another catch if everyone is weak it takes a lot less effort to be the strong one. Isn’t it? 

Now our generation is defined as weak by this one major psychological barrier that we will discuss now,

Instant Gratification “You’re Not the Only One Distracted and Lost”.

Look around your neighborhood – there’s probably a free gym that barely anyone uses. You’ll see people glued to their TVs, computers, and phones, hypnotized by the glowing screens of apps like TikTok.

We live in an age of instant gratification, with addictive pleasures just a finger swipe away through short-form video content. TikTok alone has been downloaded over 4.1 billion times, with monthly U.S. users equaling almost half the entire population.

Companies are focused on making their products as addictive as possible – like digital fentanyl contaminating everything we do. They want to invade all your senses and control your reality to keep you hooked on scrolling for your next dopamine hit. And it’s only going to get worse as technology gets even more sophisticated and invasive in our daily lives.

Maybe you are aware of it but still, we are among the affected ones. so how do we deal with it? should we throw out our phones? Nooo…..

Instead, there is a process that helped me get through it by developing a mindset, have a read:

Starting the Change With The Greatest Motivator

While pursuing your dream life is important, avoiding pain and suffering Is the prime Objective of our human life. We don’t realize it until we are in a bad situation. but what we can drive from this Objective is a mindset We Call it anti-vision.

A Anti vision Concept Aesthetic Design

Following a Negative Approach to Life Goals instills fear which becomes the driving force in unfavorable situations when we feel distracted or lazy. Imagine two scenarios:

1) You need to raise $30,000 for an amazing vacation in Hawaii.

2) You need $30,000 for a rare surgery to save the life of a loved one who is deathly ill

Which would motivate you more? For almost everyone, it’s avoiding the unimaginable pain of losing someone they love that would push them further than any vacation paradise.

Harness this anti-vision of what you don’t want your life to become.

Close your eyes and vividly picture your personal horror – stuck in a dead-end job, drowning in bills? Let that fear and discomfort wash over you.

Now look back at the last 90 days. If you continue that same life routine you have currently, would you spiral deeper into this nightmare existence? That is the kick you need to work with focus. Use that harsh possibility as fuel for change.

Write down every single thing you don’t want your future to be like –

your appearance.

your daily routines.

your relationships. 

The more specific your anti-vision, the more motivated you’ll be to make a transformation. Negative emotions aren’t bad when they’re transmuted into driving you toward a positive vision.

list out every step you’ll take weekly and daily to ensure your anti-vision never becomes a reality.

Once you are done writing them down I’m sure you are now aware of the problems you have that stop you from achieving your dream life now what next?

Let’s look into the daily habits Blueprint that can change you into a completely different person.

The Blueprint I call: GIFT

This blueprint will pump you up, but the truth is you haven’t done anything yet. Reading this guide is only 20% – executing is the other 80%.

point is simple instant efforts on execution are the only thing that matters. 

This blueprint consists of three transformative activity levels to get you ahead of 99% of people. The starting level activity takes not more than 5 minutes a day and then with an increase in level, these activities force you to build up a habit of doing tasks every day that compounds into growth in your life.

Level One: Small Wins

The first level focuses on harnessing the power of small, daily wins. These are minimal-effort tasks that most people still don’t do like 

  1. Taking the stairs instead of the escalator, 
  2. Choosing water over soda, or
  3. listening to an educational podcast instead of mindlessly opening social media apps. 

Completing these small wins allows you to set up camp outside the collective comfort zone of numbing distractions that entrap the masses.

Level Two: Discomfort

Once small wins become automatic habits, you advance to Level Two – intentionally chasing discomfort. The rule is simple: do one uncomfortable thing daily. If Level One provoked mere annoyance, Level Two causes anxiety as you face legitimate fears. 

  1. It could be as simple as keeping your cool when someone cuts you off in traffic instead of raging. 
  2. Sitting at your work desk for an extra 30 mins. (this time compounds like crazy and you will feel more productive every week) 

Systematically pushing your personal comfort zone through small doses of discomfort will swiftly separate you from the pack and you will not even realize it that quickly. It improves productivity by a lot.

Level Three: Pain

To break into the elite top 10%, you must embrace Level Three by seeking out daily pain and posing an extreme challenge. Pain is different from discomfort – 

For me, Pain is doing things I don’t like to do daily. In one word “Consistency on things that matter even if they show no results instantly”. 

It’s saying “no” to fun things that don’t help you reach your goals in the long run. removing any distractions, people, activities, or habits that don’t align with your blueprint. It requires sacrifices because if you keep doing what you’ve always done, you’ll keep getting the same results.

Take this thought to better understand this: Your brain has limited processing power, like a computer. Too many thoughts running is like too many programs open, slowing you down. For your brain to work in the best way possible you will need a routine. A routine that practically helps you grow as a person.

The most successful people do the same simple things over and over again every day.  take my experience for example by just being consistent and making small changes every day here is what I improved in the last 90 days of my journey –

What I quit- Checking my phone every few minutes, quitting gaming completely, hanging out every week, quitting alcohol, not accounting for expenses. and there is so much room still left from my end not gonna lie.

What I gained- In the last 3 months, I improved my life a lot, the biggest change is with my writing. It went from barely one blog per day to two 3,000-word blogs per day. On top of that, I maintained a healthy lifestyle with 2 hours of free time daily – something that would have been unthinkable for a procrastinator like me just a few months ago..😅😅.

Don’t Ignore these basic habits as boring. Look closely and you’ll see that top performers follow the same patterns day after day. That’s how they level up and get better over time.

You need to adopt this mindset too. Progress happens slowly, through small consistent efforts. Stick to the fundamentals, make them a regular part of your routine, and you’ll be able to achieve things that others can’t. This is how all successful people got to where they are – and now it’s your turn.
