  Dot com Welcome to the daily quote, the podcast designed to
• 0:06
  kick start your day in a positive way.

  I'm your host Andrew McGivern, and this episode is brought to
• 0:13
  you by the great News podcast. Tired of all the doom and gloom
• 0:18
  news from mainstream media? You'll get none of that there.
• 0:23
  Instead, you'll find inspiring stories and developments making
• 0:27
  the world a better place. Find it in your favorite podcast
• 0:32
  app. And just to make it easy, I've
• 0:34
  added a link in the show notes. Now let's dive into today's
• 0:39
  quote from Mike Murdock, who once said the secret of your
• 0:44
  future is hidden in your daily routine.
• 0:49
  Interesting. Hidden in your daily routine.
• 0:53
  Not in your goals or your dreams, but in what you do every
• 0:59
  single day. Most people look for the secret
• 1:03
  to their future in big decisions, the right career
• 1:06
  move, the perfect opportunity, the breakthrough moment.
• 1:12
  But Murdoch is saying you're looking in the wrong place.
• 1:16
  The secret isn't in the big moments.
• 1:18
  It's in the small ones, the daily ones, the routine ones.
• 1:24
  Your daily routine is your future in slow motion.
• 1:28
  What you do today, you'll likely do tomorrow, and the next day
• 1:34
  and the next. And those repeated actions?
• 1:38
  They compound. They accumulate.
• 1:41
  They build your future, one day at a time.
• 1:44
  If your daily routine includes reading for 30 minutes in five
• 1:49
  years, you're educated. If it includes exercise in five
• 1:55
  years, you're healthy and fit. If it includes building
• 2:00
  something in five years, you have a body of work.
• 2:04
  But if your daily routine includes scrolling for hours, in
• 2:09
  five years you've scrolled for thousands of hours and built
• 2:12
  nothing. The future isn't mysterious.
• 2:16
  It's predictable. Just look at your daily routine.
• 2:20
  What do you do every day without thinking?
• 2:24
  That's what your future is made of.
• 2:26
  Show me your calendar and show me how you spend your first hour
• 2:29
  after waking and your last hour before bed.
• 2:33
  Show me what you do on a random Tuesday and I'll show you the
• 2:38
  future. Because it's not hidden at all.
• 2:41
  It's right there in your routine.
• 2:44
  Murdoch's point is uncomfortable.
• 2:48
  You already know what your future looks like.
• 2:51
  Just extrapolate your current routine forward five years.
• 2:56
  Don't like what you see? Change your routine because
• 3:00
  that's where your future is being built every single day.
• 3:05
  So here's the question. What's your daily routine right
• 3:09
  now? And if you keep doing that every
• 3:13
  day for five years, where will you be?
• 3:17
  Don't like the answer? Change the routine because
• 3:21
  that's where the future is being built.
• 3:24
  The secret isn't hidden, it's right there in what you do every
• 3:29
  day. That's it for today.
• 3:32
  I'm Andy McGivern, signing off for now, but I'll be back
• 3:37
  tomorrow. Same pod time, same pod station
• 3:43
  with another daily quote.
