We continue with our Dadly Daily Declaration series from Robin Sharma‘s newest book, The 5 AM Club: Own Your Morning, Elevate Your Life. This book is one I highly recommend. Nearly every page of Sharma’s book has a thought, value or principle that could be a daily declaration.
Here are a few gems from today’s reading:
- The quality of your morning practice determines the caliber of your daily performance. Battles are won in the early light of intense training. Victories occur before warriors walk onto the field. Triumph belongs to the one who prepares the most.
- It’s only when we improve that our lives improve.
- Inner empires need to be unfolded up to world-class before you’ll ever see outer ones. And your future always follows your fearlessness. Your influence in the world mirrors the glory, nobility, vitality and luminosity you’ve accessed in yourself.
- External always expresses internal, without always reflects within. Your creativity, productivity, prosperity, performance and impact on the planet are always a sublime expression of what’s going on inside of you.
- If you lack faith in your ability to get your ambitions done, you’ll never achieve them. If you don’t feel deserving of abundance, you’ll never do what’s required to realize it. And if your drive to capitalize on your genius is weak, your fire to train is dim and your stamina to optimize is low, it’s clear you’ll never take flight into the rare-air of outright mastery.
- Greatness is an inside game.
Those quotes lead us to today’s Dadly Daily Declaration:
You need to practice advancing toward personal mastery daily, just as we must dedicate ourselves to any other skill we seek to be world-class at. Fortify and bulletproof and nourish the core dimensions of your inner life and you’ll 100x your life. Everything you do in your outer world is an absolute consequence of what’s happening within you.
