Takeover Tuesday is a weekly motivational program for you, the readers. Every Tuesday, you will be given simple tasks to be completed throughout the course of the week in order to inch closer to meeting your true potential by visualizing your ideal self, shaking hands with them, and then ruthlessly becoming that person.

These tasks are simple in order to cultivate SUCCESS and for you to get used to what success feels like so you can apply it in more places in your everyday life.

This week’s challenges:

1. 7 Jumping Jacks

Odds are, currently, you do zero jumping jacks. Diet and exercise plans would have you go from zero to a lot, which breeds failure and discouragement. However, 7 is easily achievable, and this will bring success! 1-a-day? All at once? Up to you!

2. Enjoy the taste of your morning coffee

We forget that it’s also very flavorful, in spite of its utilitarian need. Even if you’re drinking gross coffee, imagine it is not gross, and you can trick your brain into feeling enjoyment.

3. If you wear a tie, learn a new and exciting knot for a day

If you tend to opt a half-windsor, try a full-windsor! As men, one of the few ways to customize our wardrobe and express ourselves is through our neckties. It’s important that we have the ability to tie more than one kind of knot for those times we need a little more energy in our power suit. Another way might be to splash a little argyle into our socks, but I’ll leave that for a different article!

Now get to work, friends!
