If there was only one rule for success then this would be it.
ALWAYS DO MORE THAN WHAT IS EXPECTED!
The habit of doing more than what is expected will set you up for success in all areas of your life.
If you are overweight and want to get into shape you need to take Massive Action. You are not getting into shape by being average or going to the gym only 3 times a week and working out for 30min. Three times a week is average. You must HATE average. Workout 7 days a week! If you really want to change then take Massive Action! The momentum you build will give you certainty and belief and the results that follow will fuel to keep going. If you go to the gym 3 times per week for 30min your results will make you depressed! You will probably end up eating more than you did before.
This is what we should be teaching our kids every day. “Do not just clean your room and take the trash when asked, but rather voluntary and without being asked to do so, clean the kitchen, sweep the floors, and mop the floors.” Learning to go the extra mile is what sets you apart.
I was very lazy growing up. I was an entitled brat and thought that everything should be given to me. I made it my mission to see to how little I could do to just get by. You see, 51% was 1% of energy wasted to me. What a bull-shit philosophy! The less I did the more depressed I got and the more time I had to do some really dumb things! This philosophy also got me through my student days, I completed my Honors Degree, but I was still depressed and angry at life. You see, I got an honors degree by being average!
My philosophy changed slightly when I started working as I had to “be responsible”. I did what I had to do to get by. Just making it every month and some months just not making it. This philosophy still left me depressed and I of course still had time to mess around.
I constantly asked myself what the reason was for my depression and the fact that I kept messing up! I had addictions I could not beat and no matter how positive I tried to be I was always falling back into depression.
If you are exerting less effort than your real potential, you will be depressed! I truly believe that most depressed people today are depressed because they are cruising through life measuring themselves against other people and settle for average.
I found only one way to not be depressed and unfulfilled. (MASSIVE ACTION) I stopped measuring myself against other people and rather against what my own potential is. I now take MASSIVE ACTION every day to learn more, to be more, to become more and to mean more to others. I have time to make up for! I do not have working hours anymore. I work from the time I wake up to the time I fall asleep and I love it. I am by far the happiest I have ever been even though all certainty that I used to have I have no more. I must make it work every day because nothing is certain in my life anymore. I burnt all certainty bridges and now it is sink or swim. I have never felt more alive! I cannot wait to get up and love my work.
I challenge you to take the JUMP! Take MASSIVE ACTION! Stop measuring yourself against others and become the best you. You owe it to yourself to become the ultimate you! Say NO to FEAR! Take MASSIVE ACTION and take the leap. Give others the gift of your authentic self. Give your unique beat freedom. You have greatness in you.

So waar Willie, Massive Action + Doen meer as wat verwag word = ‘n Lewe wat waarde toevoeg aan die wat in jou lewe tel en die gemeenskap waarin jy leef.
