For every new habit you want to implement but struggle to … the question I’m always asking myself is „Discipline or Regret?“
Goals we set for ourselves, dreams we want to achieve… levelling up and improving is an easy equation: consistency + discipline = success
So the next time you’re struggling reflect on your goals and remind yourself how far you can get when you chose discipline. 👑

A Powerful Habit for an Insanely Good Day
Today, I want to share with you a simple method that will transform your day.
This simple habit transformed my life:
It changed how I view the world,
It improved my relationships,
It helped me slow down and focus on my priorities.
For the idea to get more accessible, let’s start with a basic assumption:
We all have bad days. We get hurt and hurt others, but underneath we are driven by the need: to love and be loved.
We condition our good mood upon the behaviours of others, the stock market, the weather, and all sorts of external conditions.
As long as you persist on conditional living, your mood will be susceptible to the ebbs and flows of outside events.
To change the outside, you need to look inside.
At first, my idea might sound silly, but I encourage you to give it a chance. For at least one day. It works.
Here it goes:
Look at whatever happens in your life as perfection.
That’s right. That ugly fight? Perfection. There is no better way to work on better communication and understanding with your partner.
The missed plane? Perfection. You never know what you might have blissfully avoided. Appreciate the time you have gained.
Everything that happens in our lives is the projection of our minds.
If we choose to see the world as the enemy, it is exactly what we will encounter.
But if we dare to look at “the ugly” as being here for a reason, the world appears in new colours — rife with possibilities, not limitations.
Your beliefs shape your reality.
Instead of coming up with negative scenarios and what might go wrong, decide that regardless of what happens today, it is perfect. With that mindset, you will thrive.
Your mind won’t be preoccupied with worrying, doubting, or stressing.
It will concentrate on all the good things that happen to you, and if something uncomfortable occurs, your new assumption will help you weather it through.
When you are at peace with whatever the outcome, you gain a sense of detachment that gives you the edge to discover new avenues of happiness and creativity.
Dr Wayne Dyer used to say: “If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change”.
The magic of your new mindset will translate onto every aspect of your life.
When you perceive every circumstance as perfection, you tap into the abundant mindset. Meaning, there is no lack. You are no longer the victim but a student of life. It is a tremendous perspective shift.
Things and people that irritate us the most are our biggest allies. They serve as our teachers and reflect what we need to heal.
Be grateful for every single person you meet today.
Regardless of the behaviour, see them as perfect. They have every right to be here on this Earth with you and an equal right to be assholes.
You have every right not to react since you see the world as perfection. Once you look them in the eyes and smile, their attitude toward you will shift.
Every event in your life is perfect, yet, we don’t always see it once emotions get in the way.
Today, divorce will seem like a stumbling block, or the end of the world. Yet, five years from now, you will find yourself sitting peacefully on the porch, watching the sun goes down and appreciating every setback that brought you there.
You will always encounter challenges, but how you respond to those obstacles define the outcome.
When you look at challenges as opportunities, you will reap the benefits.
If you want to change anything, first, you need to accept it.
Seeing something you don’t like as perfection — as the rightful place in this world — takes off your pressure to manipulate it.
When you don’t try to manipulate energy, it starts serving you.
Don’t allow the world to make you bitter.
Keep showing up as the most compassionate version of yourself. Shine the example of what unconditional love is.
When you perceive the world from a place of love, you don’t keep score, you don’t criticize, and you don’t get jealous. You thrive.
