'Why are you doing this?

For fun, laughter, peace and joy.'

Growing up, we used to answer with, 'for fun, laughter, peace and joy' if we didn't have any particular reason for doing something.

Recently, when I meditate and journal about why I want to:

• have a successful career
• hit my revenue and income goals
• build financial resilience for our future like our retirement and our kids' college fund,

or pretty much any goal I'm working towards, it ultimately leads back to the same reason:

For fun, laughter, peace and joy.

• to have fun and laughter with loved ones fill my days
• to have peace of mind that everything will be taken care of
• to feel joy in my heart and all the good vibes - gratitude, fulfilment, well-being

So yes, ultimately, I do what I do for fun, laughter, peace, and joy.

There's so much wisdom in the simple basics.

Returning to these simple basics and doing them well is becoming a central theme in my life lately.

No need to overcomplicate.

No need to waver and feel overwhelmed.

Just keep your eye on the simple basics.

And focus on doing these few simple basics well.

Reader, why do you do what you do?

Why do you want what you want in your business or career?

In your finances?

In your health?

Or anything important in your life?

Is it for fun, laughter, peace and joy too?

Or something else?

I'm a big fan of journaling as a tool to access your subconscious thoughts.

So I'd recommend writing these down and allowing your thoughts and feelings about them to come through.

Keep it to the simple basics - then focus on doing them better than everyone else.

This is how you'll stand out and differentiate yourself among the sea of everyone else doing too much, too soon.

Have a great week ahead.
