ATTENTION: Reader
SITUATION
What you allow is what will continue.
And it’s not just your habits, it’s the people you keep around, the conversations you engage in, the social media you scroll, and the noise you absorb.
Every input shapes you. Every voice you let in either sharpens you or weakens you.
If you keep letting in low-standard people, mindless content, and empty opinions, don’t be surprised when your focus and drive erode.
This week, you run a ruthless audit. You decide what gets access to your mind, your energy, and your attention. Then you cut the rest.
MISSION
Identify one toxic or low-value input you’ve been allowing and block, mute, or remove it this week.
EXECUTION
a. Intent: Fortify your mental, physical and emotional environment by eliminating the people, platforms, and content that weaken focus, energy, and standards.
b. Actions
- Identify the Biggest Source of Drain
Examples:
People who complain more than they act
Social feeds that distract instead of sharpen
Conversations that revolve around gossip or negativity
- Remove or Reduce Its Access to You
Block. Mute. Unfollow. Limit contact.
Set clear boundaries so the drain stops.
- Replace It
Add one high-value source: a habit, a mentor, a book, a podcast, a conversation that makes you think and move.
ENDSTATE
You stop letting weak inputs dilute your standards. You reclaim your mental bandwidth and surround yourself with focus, not noise.
BATTLEFIELD PHILOSOPHY
“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.”
– Jim Rohn
SUSTAINMENT
a. Run an input audit monthly: people, platforms, and places.
b. Keep a short list of “go-to strengthening sources” and revisit them weekly.
CALL TO ACTION
Reply with the input you’re cutting this week and what you’re replacing it with.
Protect the yourself.
