Time and time again, I hear people say that they want this and they want that. They are going to have this and going to have that. They get soooo caught up in the dream of having what they want that they never get off of their lazy a$$es to do anything towards making those words a reality.
I urge you to do the following immediately:
Commit to winning.
Why?
Most people in life are losers. That’s the GOD honest truth… I know you don’t like it… go jump off of a building if you cant handle the truth..
You talk all that shit about not working for the man, and how much your job makes you sick. You want and need more disposable income, you want to take first class flights, you are tired of not being able to do anything outside of working to pay your bills, the list goes on and on and on… Please do me a huge favor?
(They say a picture is worth a thousand words… I just wanted to say 4)
You go out and BUY (keep spending and not earning) courses and books and cd’s. You sit and spin your wheels thinking, which one should I do? S-CORP vs. CORP vs. LLC vs Sole Proprietorship
You spend hours of you shit talking life speaking about this grand idea that you have, that’s the best thing since the DVR. You dream about spending the money before you you take one step towards it.
Then,
you suddenly look up and realize that, months have passed by,then years and you are in the same place.But you dont actually hold yourself accountable.. you start blaming someone and anyone else for your dumb ass, lazy, procrastinating, all talk no action ways.
It disgust me, stop talking (to me especially) and do something for your future.
Tatoo this on your numb skull right now:
“All Hard Work Brings a Profit, But Mere Talk Leads Only To Poverty”
You need to declare this right now!!!! (I doubt you will because, you are a negative lazy Bastard!!!)
I am going to do whatever it takes to build my business for myself and my love ones.
Go ahead and say it over and over again, memorize it and keep it close to you.
Print out some copies and plaster it where you can see it.
This will allow you to start really understanding that it takes work and sacrifice to get to where you want to be. You do it for your job EVERYDAY, yet your dumb ass wont do it for yourself. You are a loser if you cannot grasp this concept.
Stop making lame ass excuses, *imagine a whiny voice”
1.”I don’t have time”
2.”I have to stay late at work”
3.”I’m tired”
4.”I need to have fun, it cant be all work and no play”
Let me handle all of this dumb ass EXCUSES
“I don’t have time” - Why don’t you stop watching sooooo much television, stop hanging out soooo much. Get something done during your lunch break, get up 1 hour ealier and use it for yourself and your business.
“I have to stay late at work” - Get your work done in the time that you are supposed to be at work. Get off of the plantation as soon as possible.
“I’m tired” - Don’t stay up until 1 in the morning lying to yourself and about the amount of work you are getting done for your business. If you take control of your life you wont have too many (not saying that there wont be times when you do) 1-2am work sessions. Work smart, plan ahead and know what you have to do. Take 1 hour a day to get something done for yourself and your business, as time progresses and you have a better handle on time management add more time.
“I need to have fun, it cant be all work and no play” - This is true, remember though if you do what most people wont do NOW, you can do what they cannot do LATER. Translation… work hard now and reap the rewards of your labor later. It’s the difference between a weekend in Miami (1 once a year) and a 3 week stay in a bura in the middle of the water on Bora Bora (look it up) (4 times a year).
If you do not change your attitude NOW, you are not gonna make it. Stop talking like an entrepenuer.. “We don’t believe you, you need more people” -Jay Z. I don’t want to hear it anymore.
There is nothing wrong with working a job and loving it. If it pays you well, and you are having fun.. That’s fantastic, many people cannot say that they have a job that they love and pays them well.
If you want more, then commit.. At the end of the day you are only hurting yourself.
I will leave you guys with a couple of definitions and some questions:
Vision vs. Pipe dream: A vision is an inevitable result, based on facts. A pipe dream is a hope based mainly on desire.
Whatever idea you have for your business and your life… do you know which one of these it is?
Commitment vs. Striving: When you’re truly committed, you don’t feel the need to strive. It’s a lack of sureness that makes you push yourself.
Which one are you doing.
I’m out.
Mike
