If you were to examine the totality of your choices and actions, you would likely realize that they are very similar to those of others who are in a similar place in their life.
This was apparent to me during my football-playing days. In college, my teammates and I had comparable schedules, habits, and lifestyles, from attending classes and working out, to our diets, off-field decisions, and even our character. The same held true for my experience in the NFL. Similarly, players who made similar bad decisions ended up in similar bad predicaments.
Essentially, your actions are a strong predictor of your future. Achieving what we want in life is much simpler than we tend to believe. We just need to study those who are in a position in life where we’d like to be, or doing something we’d like to do, and emulate their actions.
Additionally, surrounding ourselves with those who share similar goals and aspirations can make the process even easier. However, to succeed, we must avoid doing things that are counterproductive to our aspirations.We just need to follow the laws of success and we can achieve our goals.
