If you look at a top sports team, everything seems to be going right for them. Scoring, synergy, wins, you name it. Maybe we can apply these championship habits to our own lives.

What habits can you build in your life to live like a champion? The common ones are proper diet and fitness. Another might be consistent sleep. These could be the foundations of a winning life.

Then you build momentum. Everything starts clicking. You become unstoppable. You see incredible improvements upon reflection. That’s championship living.

When you’re a child, you are encouraged to play outside – or at least that was the way things were for me, before technology.

When you grow up, the idea of being out in the rain becomes laughable. Even more laughable if you decide to go out in shorts and a t-shirt. This is unfortunate. Rain should never dictate outdoor enjoyment.

I believe this sense of play is critical for staying young. Even as adults, walking in the rain should be acceptable. It’s never too late to rekindle that past-time.

Make a small list of the things you really want to do in life. This is your realistic bucket list.

We often make lists of 100+ things to do, but it can be overwhelming. A smaller list is much more manageable.

From there, you can break down the bucket list into tactical milestones. Climbing Mount Everest doesn’t have to be so hard when you have a clear map to get there.
