Listen, your time is valuable. Some say it’s your most valuable asset, but we know those people are wrong. If you’ve hung out around these parts long enough you know we believe attention is your most valuable asset.

Either way, time and attention are in short supply and there’s a lot competing for your fragmented time and attention.

So I’m going to do my best to deliver a quick blast of massive value and then throw down a Batman’esque smoke bomb and peace out. This week we’re introducing:

Five to Thrive!

Okay, I’m not great at naming things, but here’s the gist: here are 5 things I think will help you along the path of maximizing your return on life.

Let’s get to it.

1. Business

If you do a thing a whole bunch of times for a really long period of time you’ll eventually put yourself on the right side of luck.

It’s that simple, but here it is even simpler:

VOLUME PLUS TIME NEGATES LUCK

2. Personal Development

The lesson that’s had the most profound affect on the trajectory of my life is simply this: Discipline Equals Freedom

As somebody with severe ADHD I’ve always rebelled against the idea of external discipline or authority. However, I lacked the systems, processes, habits, and routines that would allow me to function in the world as a useful member of society.

The result? A whole lot of floundering.

It took awhile for me to figure out what Socrates said so many years before:

“The truly free individual is free only to the extent of his own self-mastery. Those who cannot govern themselves are condemned to a life governed by others.”

Mic Drop…

Simply put: If you can’t discipline yourself, someone else will.

Self-Discipline, I learned the hard way, is a prerequisite of greatness.

3. Wealth

Poor is a state of mind.

10 years ago my fiance left me, I was $80,000 in debt, and living in the back of a van.

I never actually felt poor even though I had to do daily mental calculus as to whether I should spend my last $10 on gas for my van (aka: my home) or buy dinner.

Why didn’t I feel poor?

Because I knew I was rich where it mattered: Skills and Network.

Getting back on top was only ever a matter of time.

4. Book: Alter Ego Effect

Todd Herman’s worked with a who’s who of Olympic athletes, C-suite executives, and Rockstars to help them achieve peak performance.

He noticed a recurring theme with almost all of them.

Each of them had an Alter Ego they’d step into whenever they walked onto their field of play.

Kobe Bryant had Black Mamba. Beyonce had Sasha Fierce. Bo Jackson had Jason.

The concept of an Alter Ego goes way back in time to the Greeks. It’s time-tested.

This book, Alter Ego Effect, outlines exactly how to wield this powerful tool for manifesting your greatness at a moment’s notice.

5. Resource: Boom-Boom

Your sniffer is a powerful tool that’s easily forgotten, lending credence to the idea that we are blind to those things which are literally right in front of us.

The power of smell can transport us back in time, enliven a memory, and completely change our physiology.

Most top performers have figured out they can use smell to trigger a peak state.

That’s where BoomBoom comes in. It’s just a tube of smelly stuff that you sniff when you want to get high… errr… I mean, when you want to enter your peak state.

I personally rock the peppermint and mint scents whenever I need to get into the zone.

Give it a whiff.

Best,

Anthony Vicino
