Give yourself a few rules so that you can think less and do more. For example, I don’t work on Sundays… or… I don’t go off to work until I have done 30 minutes of exercise.

We (human beings) love rules and structure. It is in our nature, so don’t fight it. Embrace it and give yourself a few good rules. Want to be wealthy? Here’s a simple one: Ten per cent of every dollar that comes my way is not money for spending. It is not allowed to be spent. It doesn’t exist today, and shall be saved for my wealthy tomorrow. You need a rule about those savings. For example: Not available today! These are simple rules that make a difference in our lives. Here is another example. Don’t go to bed before cleaning your weapons. You don’t ever want your sword to get stuck in its scabbard, do you? Might that not be fatal one day?

Start with one simple rule today, and practice rigorously. Within three weeks, it will be a natural habit. Then add another rule. In this way, you can build yourself an effective framework of behaviour and thinking. Want to change something about yourself? Make up a new rule. Twenty-one days later? Voila!

You are warriors, and with a few simple and effective rules (for you and your team), you will become the warriors you really want to be. So it is written.
