I do a lot of incredibly exciting stuff in my life.

 

I preach an average of 200 talks a year.  

 

Each year, I take numerous airplane rides, hopping around islands and nations.  Right before my eyes, I see lives changed, souls converted, families reunited.

 

       Each year, I also publish 4 books and write 400 magazine articles and newsletters.

 

My mailbox overflows with grateful letters–people telling me how God has powerfully touched their lives through simple, ordinary words from my books.

 

I’m also in the leadership team of many dynamic organizations, doing the craziest, zaniest, most wonderful things in the world, like publishing transformational literature, counseling the wounded, building communities, and working with the poorest of the poor.

 

       And as if I’m not busy enough, I also run a few personal businesses.

 

Yes, I do a lot of thrilling, awesome, exhilarating things!

 

And often, strangers will walk up to me after a talk and ask me, “How do you do all that you do?”

 

So I tell them my secret formula: I consistently do the basics.

 

At least, I struggle hard to be consistent!

 

Examples?

 

Every morning, I enjoy God’s embrace.

 

Every morning, I chew on His Word.

 

Every morning, I eat the very healthy breakfast–made up of nothing else but fruits.

 

Everyday, instead of exposing myself to bad news, I drink deeply of good news available around me: I voraciously read inspiring books and listen to inspiring audio teaching.

 

Every night, like a little boy, I thank God for His blessings of that day.

 

And every night, I plan for the next day–imagining the blessings I want to receive.

 

In other words, my friends, I’m boring.

 

I’m monotonous.

 

I’m repetitive.

 

I do the same basic things again and again and again and again…

 

This is my message to you: I now realize that the reason I can do all those thrilling, exciting, exhilarating stuff is because I do the boring basics every single day of my life.  Everyday, I’m grateful.  Everyday, I think positive.  Everyday, I love.  Everyday, I select what I watch, what I read, what I listen to–and stick to what can make me grow.  Every single day.

 

The more I live on planet earth, the more I agree with Jim Rohn when he said that “There’s really nothing mysterious or magical about success.  Success is simply the consistent application of fundamentals.”

 

Powerful words.

 

Be boringly consistent when it comes to the basics.

 

And in time, you’ll find exciting success knocking at your door.

 

May your dreams come true,

 

 

Bo Sanchez
