Design By The Universal Law

Dear Designer,

We can ignore a lot of things, but there’s one thing we can’t ignore…

The Law That Governs the Universe: Cause & Effect

Try as we may, it’s an unescapable door we all must pass through.

And, we do, all day everyday.

It can be fun too, if we know the levers to pull and the results to expect.

Consider the following.

Keep designing,

How Cause & Effect Can Be Fun

There are a lot of people in this world.

Like on a menu at a restaurant, we can find and chose other people to follow, to admire, and to copy.

Indeed, the funnest part of implementing cause and effect in our lives is to find a person who has gotten the results you want, then…

…work backwards to where you are and reverse engineer how they got there.

Sound easy?

Well, it is if you believe that you can get the same results from doing what they did in the same way, but with your spin on things.

Hey…guess what?!

Once you do this…possibilities are endless.

You get in the same room with individuals who have achieved what you want to achieve, and rub shoulders with them.

Better yet…

…ask them questions, (the right questions.)

Build a relationship of trust.

Once you start to do things like that…and…there’s no saying where or how far you can take life as you know it.

Those who understand cause & effect can harness the greatest law there is.

Figure out why you are where you are and where you want to be headed.

Figure out the results you want.

Then work backwards.

Don’t do it alone.

Even the most successful had people in their corner.

How “Cause & Effect” Can…Ruin Everything

Wait.

That doesn’t sound right.

How about a rephrase?!

“How You Can Ruin Everything…By Ignoring Cause & Effect”

Harsh?

Nah. Just true.

Here’s how you can ruin just about everything in your life by ignoring that one law we all have to live by.

Let’s say you believe that you can ignore, let slide, or sweep under the rug…the consequences to your actions.

Let’s pretend that that is an optimal way to function in a society, in business, and in your personal life.

Let’s imagine that you ignore what could happen if you made a decision…

Let’s just imagine that you don’t take responsibility and you even point fingers or blame everything on anything but yourself.

This, I’m sure, describes how you and I may have behaved or how we may have created narratives about our lives and why we are where we are.

You see, no matter who you are gravity works for everyone the same way for everyone.

(Check out my post here: LAWS OF SUCCESS)

Likewise, if you are a really bad, bad person…you’ve just become rotten, then decide to jump off a bridge…no matter who you are…gravity will pull you down to the earth the exact same way.

It’s the same with cause & effect…which does not play favorites.

Finding out how things work…that’s the greatest set of endeavors you could “almost” ever work to understand and function by.

The way you “ruin everything” for yourself is by not understanding that iron law of cause and effect.

It’s predictable.

Clear.

Distinct.

Fair.

So, realize there are laws at work in every aspect of life that, if better understood, could give you everything you’ve ever wanted, and more.

What To Do With “Cause & Effect” Practically

Do you want more in life?

Cause and effect!

Do you want a better relationship with your spouse, partner, or children.

Understand how relationships work.

Do you want to be thin and fit?

Figure out how your body and biology works.

Do you want to create wealth and increase your earning potential?

Master economics, understand the way money works, and gather knowledge regarding how leaders in your industry are making major impact, and what levels of compensation they are gaining for what they do.

Do you feel stressed?

Create a pathway to understanding how to reduce stress.

There are no secrets in life.

There is no bad luck.

You’re not cursed.

It all can be explained by cause and effect.

Almost everything can be reverse engineered.

The moment you understand this and take this great power…this iron law into your own hands…

…that’s the day everything will change for you.

Keep designing,

Josh
