(1) How to Get Shit Done.

Hey I hope your doing awesome.

I have been getting loads of great feedback on the first few pages of the book I put in last post. So to all of you who have been emailing me, thank you so much.

To the new followers from the UK and Russia, Welcome to the Blog!


For those of you who are just logging on, I am giving away the Little Rock Fit's Ultimate Guide to Getting Sh*t Done. To show my appreciation for all of you who helped make Little Rock Fit what it is today.

If you havent read the first half of the preface I posted last time, click here: http://resultsfinally.blogspot.com/2011/06/0-how-to-get-sht-done-preface.html

All Right, Here is the second half of the preface READ ON and GET IT DONE.



 Avoid the Living-Impaired
The living-impaired are just...there. They breathe but don't live. They're not happy. Often, they're cynical.
“You can't just do whatever you want.”
“You can't leave school to start your own thing.”
“That will never work.”
“That's a bad idea.”
The living-impaired are all around us. They come
disguised as friends, falsely concerned family members, coworkers, or authority figures.

People who get shit done leave the living-impaired alone. The living-impaired try to press their negative (they call it “realistic”) worldview onto us.
Treat them like lepers and keep your distance.

Treat your problems like One Is Coming to Rescue You
In 1972 a plane carrying 45 people, including a Uruguayan
rugby team and their family and friends, crashed into the desolate, frigid, and unforgiving Andes mountains. 29 people survived the crash.
        A few days later, an avalanche took 8 more lives when it flooded their makeshift shelter. Search parties from three countries looked for the missing plane, but the search was called off after eight days.
The survivors, having found a small transistor radio on the plane, heard that the search had been cancelled.
Here's an excerpt from the book Alive, describing this moment:
"The others who had clustered around Roy, upon
hearing the news, began to sob and pray, all except
Parrado, who looked calmly up the mountains which rose to the west. Gustavo Nicolich came out of the plane and, seeing their faces, knew what they had heard...Nicolich climbed through the hole in the wall of suitcases and rugby shirts, crouched at the mouth of the dim tunnel, and looked at the mournful faces which were turned towards him.
'Hey boys,' he shouted, 'there's some good news! We just heard on the radio. They've called off the search.' Inside the crowded plane there was silence. As the hopelessness of their predicament enveloped them, they wept.

'Why the hell is that good news?' Paez shouted angrily
at Nicolich.

'Because it means,' Nicolich said, 'that we're going to
get out of here on our own.'"

72 days later, two of the passengers – Nando Parrado
and Roberto Cannesa – hiked through the Andes to
civilization. The remaining 16 survivors were rescued
thanks to their 10-day trek.

There's a valuable lesson here:
Live like no one is coming to your rescue. If you want something, you need to take care of yourself and get to work.
