Daily Habits of High-Achievers: What Winners Do Differently

Hey, hey, welcome to On the Journey with me, coach Erica Odom, live here from the American

family, build studio on the award winning 101.7, the truth journey team.

This is the place to be if you want to talk everything mindset, money and real estate

today.

Also, our talk and text lines are open at 833-212-1017.

Make sure you tap in today.

I am excited to be back, y'all.

It feels like I've been away forever, but I haven't.

But I'm happy to be back.

I'm happy to be back on this journey.

And of course, we have another amazing topic conversation and amazing guests in the building.

Today, we are talking mindset.

And our topic specifically is talking about daily habits of high achievers.

What winners do differently?

So listen, if you consider yourself a winner, if you are a high achiever, if you a doer,

I need you to tap in.

I definitely need you to call in because this is one of those topics that I like to say,

what's the word I want to use?

It is a very opinionated topic.

There's no right or wrong answer.

I think it's perspective, right?

The one thing I love about perspective is you can't have enough perspective, multiple

perspective, you know, brings insightfulness.

So please tap in today.

I want to open up the show with some announcements.

So I see, hopefully everybody can see I'm sporting my gear directly from my boutique boutiques

on the go.

This is a part of the journey collection.

So all of my real estate moguls out there, you see it tap into boutique.

boutiques on the go, dot online and get yours today.

We also have other amazing hats, hoodies, t-shirts, all of the things.

So make sure you check out the journey collection on boutiques on the go, dot online.

The other thing that I want to mention before we dive in today is, ultimate investments

in property management, which if you don't know, that is my business and we are a real estate

company.

But we also are very big on community.

Community is everything to me.

And so every year, for the last five years, we have been doing something called December

Family Christmas giveaway.

And so this year, we have the opportunity to collaborate with the Milwaukee Women's

Center.

And if you don't know, the Milwaukee Women's Center is actually a shelter for women and

children.

And so this year, we have the opportunity to go in and we're going to be hosting a holiday

brunch for their guests.

So all the guests will be served brunch.

In addition to that, we are doing a toy donation.

So if you are looking to give back this season or would like to support the journey, the mission,

we are still taking toy donations that you can drop off at our office.

So if you want more information about that, you can call in, we can get you that information.

Otherwise, you can reach out to me and we'll make sure you get that information so you

can make your donations.

But yes, we are taking toys.

Our goal, we want to see those kids smile.

We want to see families smile, right?

Just because you're maybe experiencing something in that moment doesn't mean you don't deserve

to feel joy, okay?

So we want to make sure that everyone is well taken care of and that these kids can walk

away with at least one toy.

My goal is for them to walk away with more than one toy.

And so that's where you all come in.

So we need you to show up for that and support for the 5th annual December Family Christmas

giveaway.

Now the other announcement drum roll, Odom Investments and Property Management.

I am happy to announce that we made our seventh year in business on December 1st.

Talk about this journey.

It really has been a journey.

It really has.

And so I can appreciate it and the reflecting part of it is most because you think about

where you started 7 years ago and the vision you had 7 years ago and it's definitely different

now and it definitely has grown.

It has expanded.

It has turned into things that I didn't even see 7 years ago that we're doing.

So I say that to say always believe, always trust and definitely trust the process because

you will surprise yourself of what the outcome can be.

Now today going back to our topic, what winners do differently and what are the daily habits

of high achievers.

So Johnny, I'm going to tap in a little bit to myself because yes, I do consider myself

a high achiever and a winner, okay?

So let's talk about my daily habits and then we're going to dive deeper into this conversation.

But yes, I do believe that winners and high achievers have a daily habit.

I always like to say like kids, right?

Kids need routine, adults need routine.

Anybody who has a routine knows that if you are thrown off that routine, it like really

throws your day off.

So routine is important.

But where is all my 4 a.m. people, my 4 a.m. 5 a.m. club?

Yes, your coach, I am a part of that 4 a.m. club.

And so that is the most critical part of my day and the reason why is because it is

the most silent and calmness of my day.

My day is very long, it's very hectic, it's go, it's nonstop.

So I can appreciate a quiet, still morning to be able to just hear the birds, breathe,

have silence, okay?

And one thing that I don't absolutely do, I don't talk to anybody in the world before

I talk to God first.

That's my number one person.

Every single morning, we're having a conversation about Erica and all the things, okay?

And then we can start talking to people.

So that's a little bit about my morning.

And after that, journey team, where is all my healthy workout people at?

Yes, your coach is definitely in the team, health club.

I'm very big on health because one of the things that I've learned on my own personal

journey to success is health, I always like to say health is a real wealth.

If you don't have health, you don't have anything.

You can have all the money in the world.

But it's not going to mean anything if you don't have the health you need to keep you

going strong and to keep you to be able to enjoy the fruits of your labor.

So yes, I am that 4am person, I am that person that likes to be in the gym every morning.

And I am very big on motivational speaking.

And the reason why I'm highlighting is you probably like, why do we care about she gets

up at 4am, she goes to the gym?

Because there's purpose behind what I'm saying and to bring it full circle, it is important

how you set the tone of your day.

That is one thing I can tell you that is facts on my own journey to success.

If you start your day off negative and get out the bed and say, I'm not a morning person.

I don't want to get up.

Well, guess what?

You just set the tone for your day versus if you get up out the bed and you look at

yourself and say, okay, girl, we got to make it happen today.

We're going to do this today.

Today is going to be an amazing day.

That's total different energy.

So how you set your own tone for your day matters.

You got to bring the energy for yourself.

You can't look from the energy for other people.

You got to bring it first and set the tone for your day and do whatever you need to do.

Maybe workout is not your thing.

Maybe you a 5am, a 6am person, I'm not really sure what that looks like, but it's important

that you find your own routine and set the tone for your day so you can be ready because

we know journey team, when we go out to the world, we are going to be faced with conflict.

I don't care who you are.

You can be the most peaceful person in the world.

Conflict is going to meet you sooner and later and you have to be ready and know how

to deal with it and not let it knock you off your square and still continue your purpose

for the day and still continue your focus for the day.

So starting your day is critical.

Start your day positive.

For those of you that like to say, I'm not a morning person, that's a problem.

Coach Erica is telling you that is a problem and that is something you need to address ASAP

before we get into 2026, okay?

Other things.

Energy.

People.

Energy does not lie.

That's one thing I've learned.

You have to protect your peace.

You have to protect your energy.

Now everybody needs a friend, right?

Need somebody that they can talk, vent, whatever, but energy.

If your energy is low, if you are a negative person, if everything is negative, if everything

is bad, why would you do this?

Why you didn't do that?

I don't need those type of people in my circle, journey team, and you shouldn't want those

type of people in your circle either because that's not the right type of energy.

I need you to surround yourself with people who are going to fill your cup.

I always say, I need somebody who's going to fill my coffee cup up, okay?

For my coffee drinkers, I need coffee, cream, sugar, all of the things because your coach

like sweet coffee.

So I need my coffee filled up, okay?

As part of filling that up, I need good energy to fill that up.

So we want to keep that in mind.

And the other thing that I'm going to touch on quick is my entrepreneurs out here is because

anybody who is an entrepreneur or seeking to become an entrepreneur, what I can tell

you, it is very rewarding.

But it's hard.

And anybody that tells you being an entrepreneur is not hard, I would probably go back and

look at them again because they're not being honest with you.

Being an entrepreneur is hard and it takes discipline.

When we talk about the daily habits of a high achiever, journey team, when I go to my

office every morning, there's nobody there to tell me, you got here late.

There's nobody there to tell me, you can't go home.

There's nobody there to tell me when to take my lunch break or how to handle my day.

I'm the boss.

Nobody tells me anything, but here's the thing, I still have to have discipline, I still

have to be accountable, I have to be dedicated, I have to put in the work as a boss.

You are a leader.

Leaders set the example.

Let's show up to their organizations and businesses early on time.

They stay later, they're the first person in, they're the last ones out.

They are pushing every day, they are bringing the energy, they're bringing the best attitude.

They are putting in the sacrifice, being an entrepreneur, you're going to have sacrifice.

Let me tell you, there's many of days I've worked overtime and didn't get paid overtime,

okay?

Many of days, there's many of days I started, I was the first one there, I was the last

one out, okay?

Many of days I've had like that, but I still show up every day and I still bring my best

before, I still bring my positivity, I still bring the encouragement, I still push the

team every day because you as the boss, as the leader, you set the example.

So high achievers aren't born, they are built through consistent daily habits coming

up next.

What are the daily habits of high achievers?

You are listening to On The Journey with Coach Erica on 101 7 The Truth.

All right, all right, welcome back, you're listening to me on The Journey with Coach Erica.

The Talking Text line is open at 8332121017, so make sure you tap in, if you're watching

on Facebook, if you're watching on YouTube, if you're listening in the cart on the radio,

that line is open.

And today we are talking about the daily habits of high achievers, what winners do differently.

I know I got some winners out there, I know I got some high achievers and some doers out

there, so I want to hear, this is a topic I want to hear it all, so make sure you tap

in to in and tune in and share this with a friend.

So as always, Journey team, I love to bring in guests because you know what, a lot of times

they sleep on our city, okay, Milwaukee isn't all that bad, people have so much negative

to say, but remember what I talked about that positive talking that energy, listen, we

got some winners here, we got some doers here, we have some high achievers here, and some

of you may say, well, Coach Erica, I don't know, nobody will guess what I'm here to tell

you, that means you need to change up your circle then because that is the problem because

we do have them here, and I have two of them here right here in the studio, and I'm

gonna get through this because you know, I get excited and I get on my rent, but I want

you all to hear from them because they have taken time out of their busy day to show up

for us and bring this energy, so what I'll further do, I'm gonna kind of jump right in.

So our first guest that we have here on the show today, live right here in the studio,

not only is he a real estate investor, he is also an entrepreneur in the business owner

of raw lifestyle, now let me tell, I'm gonna hold this up to the camera, you see this

little juice right here, let me tell you, I have purchased this from raw lifestyle and

let me say this, make sure you stay at home because it works, it works, okay, when we

talk about you need a cleanse, but the girl is that's trying to get that cleanse for that

beach body, right here, this is your cleanse, okay, this is gonna get you together and get

all that waste and tox out your body, okay, because a lot of y'all that some of the stuff

we eat is just not right, so if you want to get that out and you want to start fresh for

the new year, here you go, I just want to add that in there, but yes, we have him, the

owner of this amazing juice right here in the studio, without further ado, we got

Josh Murphy in the studio, hi Josh, how are you?

Hello, I'm great, how are you feeling?

I am wonderful, so can you start off by telling our viewers and listeners a little bit about

yourself and who you are, who are you?

Well, we migrated from Chicago at a young age, my mother brought me here with no support,

wanted a better life for her kids, okay, and I hope I done well by her, but then as through my

journey, I've grown up fast through the inner city, okay, I've seen a lot of, we've faced a lot

of adversity, okay, and just seen a lot, just seen a lot, okay, well who am I, I'm a cancer survivor,

amazing, I beat it in 61 days, wow, I want to give a shout out to the people that's fighting cancer,

that beat it, to my cousin Mika, that's fighting it right now, to Renee, that's fighting it right now,

keep fighting, it's a long journey, but you can do it, I did it, I felt very vulnerable,

I'm thankful to be here to even hope I can help somebody do it, because I done it, I'm speaking

from experience, the doctors told me all kind of stuff, he came and just said, hey, you got,

you got cancer and walked out the room, I want to go put them in the choke hole, like, hey come here,

wow, what do you mean, like you ain't, he's like, somebody else would be here to talk to you,

tell him how you busy, I'm like, wow, and I'm just sitting there in the fetal position like,

wow, cancer, cancer, that's all I kept saying to myself, cancer, cancer, cancer,

so then I just stopped eating a bunch of stuff, started researching, and then it led me to

getting healthier, and once I beat it, it took me a while to tell him that I was off to medicine,

because he got into medicine, and he was trying to have surgery, I'm like, I ain't doing all that,

and he was like, you still taking the medicine, Mr. Murphy, I'm like, yeah, yeah, but I,

I'm doing my own research, I'm like, I'm like, no, I'm like, yeah, I'm taking it, but myself,

I'm like, I ain't taking that stuff, that stuff, I heard my stomach, then he gave me other medicines

for this, other medicines for that, and I'm like, for I know it, it started from one medicine,

and I'm on 10 different medicines, I'm like, I only got cancer, right? What's this other stuff,

so I started healing myself, started feeling good, I was ashamed that I even had it, like maybe

I had an STD or something, I didn't want to share the information with nobody, and then I found

he shared my story after I beat it to an older lady that she had cancer, a friend of mine

introduced me to her, and then one of my nurses was there from my doctor's office, and she

remembered me, and she started crying, and I'm like, why are you crying? She was like, because I'd

never seen a man be that vulnerable, I'm like, I'm just trying to save her, I'm like, I wish

somebody would have came and told me about it, you know what I mean, or like help me, because I

realized your body heals itself. Absolutely. You just got to put the right things in it,

and then I realized too, it's very expensive to be poor, to eat bad, that cost, that's very

expensive, and it's cheaper to eat better, but it's just more convenient to eat cheap stuff,

quick, quick, quick, quick, quick, and it led me to the hospital, so I'm just hoping that somebody

out here listening that stop, stop eating quick, take time to cook, take time to prep, do whatever

you need to do if you want to be here. Absolutely. And I definitely want to be here. Absolutely,

because you hurt me, say at once, journey team, health is the real wealth, we need our health,

we need to be healthy, and health goes deeper than just physical, your mental health, your spiritual

health, physical health, you need to tap into all of that, because it's so important when we

talk about preparing ourselves. Now, Josh, you are actually a real estate investor, can you give

us a little insight quick on your journey with real estate? Well, you know, in the beginning,

took losses, learned from them. I could have just camped there, and you know, set up a camp

fire in the state there, and like, oh, there's that, that, but I just pushed through it and learned

from it, and then it took me into like, no buying distressed properties. I figured a different way,

I'm like, okay, if this neighborhood is worth, say, 150, and I catch the house for 20 or 30,

thousand, and I put 20 in it. Okay, I'm like, that's a hundred grand, but me not knowing that,

you know, people are trying to manipulate you in different ways, so they can line eight pockets

up. Me not knowing that me just being a student and learning from my mistakes, learning from people

around me. I'm thankful for the people that I have in my life. I cherish you guys. I wish I

could name everybody, but it's probably impossible, but I'm just very thankful, but

and then my son grandfather, John Love, one of the first positive black males that I met, and he

taught me, because I'm first I'm thinking, he got to be doing something illegal, because I'm like,

you got all these houses, you got all his money, and he just, actually, how he doing, he said,

he worked doubles for 20 years. Okay. And he said, when he said back in the day, houses was very cheap,

he said, he's bound flat out, he didn't know how to do work on his own, and he worked on his own

houses, and he still worked doubles, and he still collecting a lot of rents, still working doubles,

I'm like dedication. Yeah. So hard work, definitely, definitely, definitely pays off.

If it weren't for him, I probably wouldn't even really got into real estate. I want the men to count.

Okay. Awesome. I'm definitely thankful for him. So let's talk a little bit. So for those of you

tapping in, we're talking about the daily habits of high achievers. So I talked a little bit about

my routine and what my morning looks like and how I set the tone. Can you give our viewers a little

insight on how do you set that morning routine? What is your morning snapshot looks like?

It's boring. It's boring. Daily habits, I'm just trying to get a little more comfortable.

Okay. But daily habits is boring. Like I wake up, I still lot of prey. Okay.

As people meditate, most people drink coffee, I drink tea. I try to get rid of the rigged

the ants, the automatic negative thoughts from like the day before or control my mind because

I make my money off of thinking and putting the right pieces together, putting the right people together.

And I'm thankful for my team, whoever you may are because it's a lot of different

moving pieces. So as you always change, but I'm thankful for everybody. Okay. And what do you believe a

high achiever does daily? What I believe it does daily? What do you think a high achiever does

on a daily basis? Just a couple things. Pran. Okay. Eating the best food that they possibly

get a hold of. Okay. Going crazy in that gym. Thank you, Beth. I fit my fit club, my fit

kickboxing people, my club fit, fit people. Thank y'all. Because if you get that gym,

you beat your body up and you already meditated. So anything that comes your way, you're ready for

it. It's like, you can drop the worst news on me. So it'd be like, I didn't even then did it. So

it's like, I'm more than ready. So just that like thinking like high achievers, they do a lot of

thinking. They they they how's you going to be a high achiever? You got to be using your brain.

Absolutely. Definitely. And my last question, what do you think winners do differently?

Winners win. They adjust. They adapt. They lost more than anybody who you ever see walking around.

Any winner has lost a lot and learned from that. That's how they want. I could speak for myself.

I could speak for my cousins, my brothers, motor, hand, my Henry. Like we lose. You lose a lot.

Absolutely. But then people only see when you win and then after you go through so much,

I'm going to speak for me now. Like sometimes I might as I cross the go line, I'm going to spike

the ball because it's like everything I have to go through to get here. And then I'm like a

fan. Somebody like like, are you spiking the ball? I'm like, you don't know what I just went to.

I got a drop kick clothesline beat up. But I'm still here. And I ain't show it. Like you

ain't even see it. So I'm like, whoo. So you might see me having overly having fun. Like you

might see me like, why are you doing that? Right. Right. I just got a drop kick. Absolutely. And

that's the part. Most people don't know on this journey to success journey team. There are going

to be obstacles. Every person is going to face something. You're going to face something. But

the key is figuring out how to keep yourself pushing and going under that pressure. But remember,

high achievers don't wait for the moment. They created coming up next more on the daily habits

of high achievers and what winners do differently. You are listening to on the journey with coach

Erica on 101 7 the truth. Okay. Hello. That's the right topic right there. Welcome back. You're

listening to on the journey with me coach Erica. The talk and text line is open at 8 3 3 2 1 2 10 17.

Make sure we tap in journey team today. We are talking the daily habits of high achievers. What

winners do differently. And we have another amazing guest. And I'm going to dive right in because I

want to make sure we have time to go over her amazing story. Now not only is she woman. She's black

woman and she's a business owner. She has been in the business sector public. Excuse me. She's been

in the public service sector for over 24 years. A college educator. A business consultant. And

soon to be a realtor. Y'all know how I feel about my girls. Y'all better start playing with her

because we out here doing big things. Okay. What we talking about. We talking about what winners do

differently. And we have a winner right here in the studio. So without further ado, I would like

to introduce Cheryl Edwards. How are you, Cheryl? I'm good. How are you? I am doing good. So we

are talking about these daily habits. Can we start off with you telling our viewers and listeners

a little bit about who you are and what it is that you do? You've pretty much answered it. But

who I am. First of all, I'm a mom. I'm a mom for amazing daughters. Okay. Shout out to them.

And also a grandmother. In addition to that, I'm a leader. I'm a friend. Absolutely.

I try to put myself in whatever role that I can to help whomever. So I wear many hats.

Absolutely. Okay. Awesome. And can you talk a little bit about your journey? And you know,

we talk about real estate on this show a lot. Today, we're kind of focusing more on mindset. But what's

your, your son to be a realtor? How has that journey been going? Okay. So all right,

listeners. So I'm actually being mentored by coach Erica. So that's like a three question.

Obviously it's amazing. It's been a great journey. I learned a lot from her. It's definitely

something that it's foreign territory for me. But I'm embracing the journey. So

yes, absolutely. And I'm excited for a chorale y'all. She is, she is amazing. And I talked

about energy and she has great energy and she's positive. And I want you to let that sink in

because again, energy is everything. Okay. Let's keep our energy high. Can you talk a little bit

about what your morning routine looks like? My morning routine is simple, but it's intentional.

Okay. I like that simple, but intentional. Thank you. So basically, just like Josh said,

you know, I wake up and I pray. I don't get right into prayer. The first thing that I do,

and I have to be honest, I check on my children. Okay. That's good. And if I'm not home,

there's a call made to my children. Okay. So when I know that my home is okay, that's when I

spend time with God. Absolutely. Absolutely. Because there's someone who's alarm clock is still

going off and will never wake up. So I start there first. Absolutely. And then I make sure that

I think about how I want my day to go. I want to make sure that I am responding to the day.

Okay. Instead of reacting to it. I like that too. Okay. Yes. So I like that. And chorale points

it out a lot of good things, right? You know, just being intentional with your day. Like that goes

back to what I was saying in the first segment about, you know, when you wake up, you set the tone

for your day journey team. And if you wake up negative and you don't move with purpose and intent,

my question is, what are you doing? What are you doing? My favorite saying is we all get the same

24 hours in the day. But the only difference from individual to individual is what are you doing

with your day? Are you going to be the person that spends your day complaining about everything?

Let me be the first to tell you we all have complaints. Nobody doesn't not have a complaint.

But what are you going to do with your day? We all are faced with obstacles. We all are faced

with challenges. We all are faced with disappointments. We all get bad news. We all you heard it from

Josh. We all take losses. You're a coach. I have taken several losses, several losses, many

financial losses, many disappointments. But I still get up with intent. I still push every day. I

still make something happen. And that is key. I don't want to go too much on a rant. But I got to

say this. That is key. When we talk about daily habits and high achievers and winners, you got to

make the best of your day. Every day you get up and step foot out your door. You should be making

progress. If you have not checked off one thing to make progress for the day, that's a problem.

And I'm here to tell you that very transparent. That's a problem. We need to make progress every

single day. We need to be intentional. Be intentional with your time. We don't have time. The way

somebody tonight is not waking up in the morning. And that's facts right there. So we need to be

intentional with our time and make good use of our day. But I'm going to get off my rant.

But I really like that. So I had to, I had to slide that in. I'm sorry, y'all. But let's get back

to Sheryl. Okay. So can you tell us what you believe? Hi, excuse me, what high achievers do daily?

What do you think a high achiever does daily? As I said before, you have to plan intentionally.

Absolutely. You have to be willing to do the uncomfortable work. That's a good one right there.

And you need time to reflect. Absolutely. I believe it's really important to do what I refer to

in my line of work as a after action review. You have to go back and review and say, okay,

what worked? What didn't and why? Yes. And for me personally, I hear you and I say you took a

lot of losses for me. I think I kind of, I agree, but I use a different verbiage because I believe

in the power of positive thinking. So for me, it's no failures, just lessons. Absolutely. And that's

one of the tattoos that I have on me to remind me that there is no failures. It was a lesson.

Everything that I go through every setback, there is a lesson. Absolutely. 100% agree with everything

that you just said. I mean, I think you hit it spot on. It is a lesson. And we are going to go

through lessons, right? And we have to, you know, still keep pushing even in those lessons. And I

think that's key because it's so hard to have something happen, right? Journey team or something

not go the way we want it to go. And then we kind of get like stuck in that moment. But it's like

kind of like trail set. How do we reflect? How do we be real with ourselves? Sometimes the hardest

thing journey team is being true to you, like looking yourself in the mirror and actually saying,

you know what? This is really what it is. Sometimes people are not at that point to be able to do that.

But how do you look at yourself in the mirror? How do you be truthful? Be honest. Move past that

and accept the lesson. But keep going because that is the key. And I will have to say I'm going to just

put it out there. High achievers, winners, doers, they keep going. They don't stop. You don't let

obstacle stop you. You keep going. You push through. You fight through. You don't end at that point.

And that kind of leads into my next question of what do you think winners do differently?

Well, honestly, I believe as a winner, and again, I speak for myself. I have to protect my mindset.

And I'm going to protect my peace at all costs. Absolutely. That also includes my accomplishments.

What I teach my children, and I talk to a lot of people that are very close to me that I mentor.

All right. Knowing the four S of your social circle. Okay. Oh, I want to hear this.

Is your family? Okay. Your friends, your followers, and your foes.

They can all look alike. Okay. Wait, let me run that back. So we got family, friends, followers,

and foes. Y'all are harder than four S. Get that written down, journey team. Okay.

All right. So obviously with your family, that's your bloodline typically.

Okay. So that's given to you. You don't choose your family. Okay. Your friends should have a choice.

Absolutely. Your followers. They'll support you from a distance, but they're also low key haters.

Listen, social media. Oh, they watch you good. They watch you real good. They won't like your stuff.

They won't comment. But you see them at the grocery store. Oh, hey, Coach Eric, I saw you. You

was I'm like, jeez. You know everything about me, but you don't even interact. Absolutely.

I just had to throw that in there. I totally agree with you. And then obviously your foes.

Yes. So you have to know the difference. And this is how you win because you will know how and

when to keep people in their respective categories. Absolutely. I mean, I couldn't have said it better.

That that is an amazing way to break it down journey team. If you if you didn't get anything else,

you should have wrote down those four S because let me tell you that was nicely said and nicely

broken down. And when we talk about Cheryl mentioning it reflection, that's a great starting point

to reflect. I need you to make that list right now and start reflecting on each category. What does

this look like for family? What does this look like for friends? What does this look like for?

What was the next one followers and what does this look like for foes? Because Cheryl mentioned

it earlier. Reflection is important. And that's one thing that I do. And I'm also very big on.

I like to keep my entrepreneur life and my personal life very separate. You will never see

me mix that. And in my personal life, I'm always reflecting. How can I be better? How can I be

some more supportive to my friends and my families? How can I self-improve? Because self-improvement

is important for you to overspill to others. And then when I think about being a business owner,

what can I do to be a better leader? What can I do to to to rise us higher? What is working will?

What's not working will? Where do we need improvement? As a business owner, I'm reflecting on that.

I feel like on a day to day basis on my ride home from the long day. I'm on the freeway driving home

and I'm just like a lot of times I drive home silent in the car. No music. I don't talk to anybody.

I crack the window and I just ride and I allow my mind to just release and think about the day.

How did this day go today? What did we accomplish today? What happened today? What bothered me today?

What went well today? All those things are important when we talk about getting it out because too

many of y'all try to hold it in. Number one, that's not healthy. Get it out. I'm not saying you got to

talk to everybody but find your way to get it out. But I got to say this, remember success is

built in the small things you do daily. But coming up next, more on what winners do differently. Stay

tune y'all. You are listening to On the Journey with Coach Erica on 101 7 the truth.

All right, welcome back. You're listening to me on the journey with coach Erica. The talking

text line is open at a 3 3 2 1 2 10 17 journey team. Make sure you tap and stay tuned and share

this with a friend or a family or a follower. We are talking everything about daily habits of

high achievers. What winners do differently. We've gotten some amazing perspective from both of our

guests or in studio today. But I want to keep the conversation going before we close out for the

night. And what I want to hit on is some highlights that I want to touch on when we talk about daily

habits of a high achiever and what winners do differently. So press the record because here we go.

It's about to get real. Okay, here we go. When I talk about a winner, what does a winner do

differently. Number one, journey team, they have a morning routine. I don't know a winner that

does not have a morning routine. I don't know one. If you know one, please call in because I don't

know a winner that does not have some type of morning routine. Whatever that looks like for them.

I'm not saying your routine got to be like mine. But you need to have a routine because yes,

adults need structures like children. Number two, they prioritize what matters most. Yes, winners

prioritize. Listen, I am the queen. You hear me the queen like somebody's grandma. With a list,

I have I got a notebook in my purse that I carry. Yes, every day. Listen, I could be out of the

country. And my book is with me. And I'm on the airplane taking my to-do list, my notes.

I got my posties in there. I keep my posties in my purse. Yes, I'm putting myself out there.

I don't care about child judging me because I'm telling you it matters. Calenders.

I just got to the point where I like to use my calendar and the phone. As a side note,

that's that old fashioned is coming out. I used to have planners. But I don't carry planners

don't worry y'all. I just use my phone calendar. But I live by my phone calendar that keeps me

organized. That keeps me in tune with my day. My to-do list helps me stay on task. But not only that,

it encourages me because it's rewarding when I can go to my list and be like, yes, I got that

done today. I got this done today. Yes, I made it through the day. Don't judge me until you try

it and you see the effect that it has on you. So get your list together. Get your calendars

together. Winners stay consistent. Again, you don't show up when you feel like it. I don't care if

you are an entrepreneur, if you are a W2 worker, whatever that looks like, you are consistent. You

show up and you do what you got to do. You give it your best. You give it your all. You don't come

in. You don't slack. You don't come in with excuses. You don't come in with doubt and talking

about how everything is going to come in and go wrong. You come in and do and it shows and what

you do. Winners protect their time. Now, it took me a while to learn this one, but I got it now,

y'all. They say no. No is a complete sentence. No. Coach Erica, are you able to come to the show

this weekend? No. Have a great show, by the way. No, it is okay to say no. Okay. Set boundaries.

And don't waste other people time. Now, that word, that little phrase right there, I can go so

many ways, but I'm not going to do it tonight. I'm going to stay focused. Stop wasting people time.

And whatever area that relates to your life, stop wasting people time. You don't want nobody to

waste show time. So don't waste nobody host time. I mean, it's just that simple.

Surround yourself with the right people. I have stressed this all night. I'm going to go back

to Sheryl for F's, the followers, families, foals and friends. Okay. Y'all need to check it in

tonight. I need y'all to really figure out who in each category, what that energy looks like.

And if that energy is not there, you need to do something about that. That's a problem. If

there are energy suckers, you need to get rid of them. I'm here to tell you that. Tell them,

Coach Erica said it. You need to take care of your health. Oh, oh, oh, I could go so on with

this one because health is important. I don't think people realize how important our health is.

Health, I cannot say it enough. Health is the real wealth. You need sleep. Yes, I work a lot,

but I still get sleep. I listen to my body. Matter of fact, I just had to do it today. I feel so

guilty today. Y'all, I didn't go work out this morning and it threw my whole routine. I got in

the car like, dang, I just, I didn't go to the gym. I just felt terrible about it all day. It's

me to lunch to get over that. But the point I'm making is tap into your body and this morning,

I tapped in with my body and I said, you know what? I'm not going to force it. I'm going to give

myself some grace. I'm going to lay here a little bit longer because my body is tired right now

and I need rest and it's okay to acknowledge and tap in with what it is that you need. You need

to have a balance diet. You need to do some type of movement and work out. Get your body moving.

Put the right things in your body. When I transitioned over to being healthy, let me tell you,

you notice it right away. When you put crap in your body, oh, you feel the effects instantly when

you truly make the change to a healthy lifestyle. Our bodies don't want that. If you can't tell the

difference now, it's probably because your body is too filled with too much toxins and crap. You

can't tell the difference, but when you make the transition, trust me, you will notice the difference

in how much energy you have, how you feel, how you can think clear. Your skin is going to be clear.

You're just going to feel good, y'all. The other thing, allow for rest and reset. That is so important.

Mind you. I'm all about the hustle. I'm all about the push. The go get it. The make it happen,

but I also allow myself to set and reset every day. For those of you that don't know your coach,

I'm the vacation queen. I like to take vacation. That is actually how I reset. I look forward

to my vacation coming. That gives me something to look forward to. And then when I go on vacation,

I can truly reset whatever that looks like for you. Most nights, I just allow myself quiet time.

I have multiple TVs in my house and I don't know why because I don't watch any of them.

Okay. Another side note. I don't have any live streams or cable. I'm one of those people.

I don't have anything. And I know you like, what? I just don't want it. I don't feel like I need it.

And I'm not a TV person. I prefer to read a book. I prefer to sit in silence. And most times,

I'm on my laptop, truthfully working on something. So I barely watch TV. But I allow myself that

quiet time that I need. And winners, they see the vision. They every winner has a vision.

And they create a path for themselves. And as we mentioned earlier, they have obstacles. They're

not exempt. They don't get exempt from that. But they still keep pushing. And time just goes so fast

when we having a good time, journey team. But I want to say this. Thank you, Targets.
