quick question do you know where you are in life? Take a second to reflect on that. When most people are asked this question, they struggle to find the right answer. They usually say something like my life, oh yeah, no, it's good, it's good. I mean it could be better, but I can't complain. This is because most people fail to actively tackle how exactly their life is going. They settle for having dreams and aspirations that will never be reached and call it a day. How many of you said, well, tomorrow is another day, without figuring out exactly how today went wrong? Well, we're here to change that mindset, and by the end of this video, you should have a better understanding of how to make tomorrow a better day, not just another day. Before tracking your life, you need to figure out where exactly you're at right now. This is a surprisingly hard thing to do because most people are scared of looking in the mirror and seeing their true self. They would rather ignore the person staring back at them rather than face reality. But here's the thing

it's an important one, so pay attention. You need to start where you are and make the most of what you have. So, being able to look at yourself and be okay with who you see is the first step in tracking your life progress. Here's a little exercise for you. Next time you're in the shower, take a minute and reflect on how your life is going. But be true to yourself. Only when you have a clear idea of where you are can you then move on to the next step. In our years of tracking how life is going and where we're heading, we've identified five pillars of success which are trackable and have a clear plan of execution. We've included those in our goal mastery course, which the smart of you have enrolled in. For those who didn't, the program is closed right now, but we'll be reopening it sometime again during the year. So, if you want to make the smart decision and invest in yourself, go to aylax.com/goals and get on the waiting list. We won't dive into all five pillars.

here but we'll condense them following a pretty smart formula. Tim Ferriss used in his book Tool of Titans. By the way, it's a super good read for those of you interested in advice in all areas of life. There are three major areas where you can make progress in life: health, wealth, and wisdom. For each of these areas, we'll give you three ways to track your progress. Let's start with wealth. People have a complicated relationship with money because it causes them a lot of stress. They have the wrong outlook for money. They don't see it for what it really is: a tool of exchange. If you're unfamiliar with this idea, go back and watch our previous Sunday video or click the top right corner. This is a pretty long topic and it should be in its own video, but here are three important things to track. One, literally track your damn money. So many people complain about having too much month left at the end of their money, but they have no idea what they're actually spending it on. It's pretty clear how much money you're earning, but

somehow, at the end of the month, you never have the same amount of money left, and you have no idea why. If you're having this problem, this is the first thing to fix and start tracking. 2. Oh, money. If something goes wrong tomorrow and you can't earn income for the following months, how long until you go broke? You saw it happening during the pandemic a lot. Having oh money means having enough cash put aside to last you at least three to six months in case something bad happens. This should buy you enough time to get back on your feet. It's a safety cushion and a stress reliever. If your job sucks and you want to move to something better, then three to six months of cash reserve can be crucial. And three, the magic number. This is something we explained in great detail in goal mastery, and we even provided a template to accurately calculate your exact magic number. For the purpose of this video, let's go with a more simple formula. Everybody has a different magic number, but you find it the same way.

calculate how much money you need to function as a human being for a month then double it. That's the first financial goal. Reaching your magic number means eliminating financial stress for the first time in your life. How many of these three are you tracking right now: health? Here's the right mindset regarding health: your body is the contact point between your mind and the physical reality. If your body is weak, your experience with life will be weak as well. You can't really go for a hike with your loved one if you're tired after two flights of stairs, right? And as with wealth, here are three things worth tracking health-wise: one, find points of discomfort and fix them. Think of things that cause you physical pain or discomfort. These are opportunities to make incremental changes to your health. If you work all day at your desk and you look like a banana when you stand up, fix your posture. If your mattress sucks and you wake up every day with a huge pain in your lower back, get a new mattress. If you can drink from a straw without

opening your mouth fix your teeth. The more points of discomfort you find and fix, the more enjoyable your life will become. 2. The 5k challenge challenges are popular nowadays, so here's one: run a 5k. Everybody in good health should be able to finish a run in decent time. It's short enough so you don't have to train for it, but long enough to be a challenge if you've been a couch potato for the past year. 3. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Learn to cook at least one healthy version of each of these meals. There's no secret that what you put into your body has the most impact on your overall health. Go find whatever recipes suit you best and get really good at each one of them. So, how have you scored on health so far? Alright, moving on to wisdom. Being a wise person means understanding how the world works and gives you the ability to connect the dots. The problem here is a lot of stupid people think of themselves as quite smart. 1. Read one book a month.

education is the absolute best and most straightforward way to increase your intellect. Hey Luxers, you can finish an audiobook in one weekend. Surely you can do that. We've been giving you guys tons of great book recommendations throughout the years, and hopefully some of you guys have made the smart choice. Plus, they're literally free. Here's another one we recently finished again: The 10X Rule by Grant Cardone. It's a book we listen to every six or so months to get us pumped up for our new projects. If you need some energy to get you started on your project, this is the perfect book, and you can have it for free by going to alox.com/freebook and signing up. Two, have conversations with people smarter than you. First of all, you should never be the smartest person in the room. So if you don't have anyone smarter than you, go find some new friends. And you can always talk with us, by the way. When you're talking with people smarter than you, two things happen. One, you get first-hand

experience on things smart people are interested in, and two, you get better at asking great questions. If you could have a chance to ask Bill Gates a question right now, what would you ask him? Can't think of much? Well, have some conversations with smarter people. And three, get good enough at something. New learning how to be good enough at something holds an incredible power. It unlocks your potential and opens your eyes onto what's really possible for your future self. Learning how to learn is the ultimate tool someone can have in their arsenal. We believe this skill is so valuable, we made an entire course on learning how to learn, and it'll be available this September. If you want to make the right decision and invest in yourself, join the waiting list by going to alux.com/learn. See you on the inside, Aluxers. With all that being said, you now have nine things to track in order to make progress in your life. Are you tracking any of them already? Let us know in the comments. And for the true Aluxers who watch this video until the end, you of

course get a bonus. This is one more valuable thing to track the world. Where is the world going? What's happening out there? What things are shaping the future? A lot of people are choosing to be ignorant on this topic. If it doesn't affect me, it doesn't bother me, right? But if you want to leave a footprint on earth, to really have an impact and change the way things work for the better, then you need to get out there. We hope you found this video valuable, Aluxers.
