Your first commission. Might not be much to some, but itโs freaking awesome. You notice you think, feel and behave differently especially in challenging situations. You even move differently, with a slight swing in your step. Itโs slowly coming together. All the month of making sacrifices, uncertainty and doubt starting to bear fruit.

Mindset, habits and routine are still key
Really find a mentor now who can help you level up
Stay focused and donโt over-commit thinking you figured it all out
Keep taking action and getting out of your comfort zone
