In a world full of popups...

You wake up in the morning.. swipe your phone open.

You check WhatsApp... 32 notifications..

You start replying to them.

Then you jump over to Facebook.

21 notifications.

You see who's commented on your posts.

You LIKE them.

You then click on their profile image to see what they are doing.

And you keep surfing the social media universe while you are still laying in bed... catching up with all the popups.

Before you know it, you have to jump out and rush to work...

As you go to work, your mind is filled with all those comments and thoughts that you just read in the morning.

You feel some mental friction about some comments that was made about you on Facebook.

And you wonder...

Why did I even start my day that way?

And as the day goes by... the same pattern continues.

You are doing focused work... and "bling"... you get 4 notifications on your WhatsApp.

You are tempted to open it, but you resist.

You wait for 10 seconds...

But you cannot hold any longer.

And you break!

You end up picking up that phone... and reading the message..

And before you know it... another 20mins gone...

And you find it hard to focus back on "real work"

This is how most people live their lives today.

And this is so counter-productive to success.

As I was looking back at my life in the last 12 months...

I realized that I actually was able to achieve more by consciously staying away from these patterns.

I stopped answering calls from random numbers.

I only picked up calls from family members.

I stopped giving my mobile number openly.

I removed myself from 30+ of WhatsApp groups which were not serving me. (even if some people felt it was rude for me to leave)

I deleted Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn apps from my iPhone

I decided to just check them only twice or thrice per day on my laptop. No app.

I got into my iPhone settings and removed notifications on all apps, except the phone.

I removed notifications from SMS alerts, Email alerts, Instagram alerts and others.

So that temptation to click on that app which that 'red notification' was not there.

I realized how peaceful my life then became.

All that noise in the digital world was literally draining me of my real productive energy.

And do you want to know the results?

20x growth

That was the outcome.

It was because of...

F.O.C.U.S

You want to have more free time....?

You have to consciously let go of all those distractions from your life.

Unwanted things.

Unwanted apps.

Unwanted people.

Unwanted projects.

Unwanted travels.

JUST LET GO!!!!!

This principle is called "multiplication thru subtraction"

If you want to multiply your results, you have to subtract all those things which really do not serve you any.

You have to take those conscious calls to say "no"

"No" is one of the most powerful words you can have in your life.

And the more "no"s you say to things, the faster you can grow.

Warren Buffet says NO to 99% of investment opportunities.

And that's why he is a billionaire today.

F.O.C.U.S

I used to struggle a lot to make money earlier on.

I was busy and I was broke.

Not a very good combination.

It was only when I realized the power of FOCUS that I started to get more of BOTH money and time in my life.

And if truly want to live a highly leveraged lifestyle - both in terms of income as well as impact, then let’s connect LIVE.

I want to show you how you can easily multiply your income by simply focusing on things that really matter.

Multiplication through subtraction.

That's what I believe in.

Have less, do more.

Don't be busy. Be effective.

Prioritize tasks based on your highest values.

And you will see a transformation in every aspect of your life.

Because "success' is holistic.

It's NOT just about the money.

It also has to do with great relationships - with yourself first, and then others.

It has to do with great health - mental, emotional, physical and spiritual health.

And you are balanced in all these factors, then you have the power to impact more people positively.

And money will only be the by-product.

If you liked this stuff, let's meet LIVE.

All the best,
