Planning and making up your mind are two significant things you need for success. Without these two, you might not find the right direction leading to your goals. But first, you need to ask yourself that are you clear on what you want?
Like all the information being thrown at you, think for a while about it. Because complexity is the enemy of execution. So the more stuff that is thrown at you, and if you are not completely clear about what exactly you want, you will never get it.
Meanwhile pondering on what you want is equally important as finding out the inner version of you that is capable of doing things. It takes two things to go side-by-side – happiness and fulfillment.
People with a lot of money remain unfulfilled while others are already contented. If you can’t find a way to stay happy at this moment then the moment you become rich you are going to bring it with you. And it will only magnify the things you don’t like about yourself when you get a bunch of money.
Nothing is Constant
In entrepreneurship, nothing is constant. You rise and fall; you make profit and loss, success, and failures. You get a deal or you don’t, you make money out of that deal or you don’t. It goes forward and backward and it happens to entrepreneurs over and over again.
You’d most likely know how it feels to be a failure but the good thing is you’ll then crave more for success.
Failures break you inside out. And if you fake your failures by being cool, you will keep on losing.
It’s not the amount of money that makes you successful or a failure. You might earn 50 grand and still not fulfilled.
Do not fool yourself just to show off others. Time is running out on you. There are 86,400 seconds in a day. In that time you need to think about who does what, who is successful with quick decision-making strategies. However, in the end, the separators will be only those who take massive action quickly.
You need to stop the world from pushing your family around. You get pushed around all the time because you hang out with dudes who also get pushed around all the time. It is not normal and it is not okay. You need to change it.
If you keep on telling yourself to learn a bit more before you make a move, it will take you nowhere. You don’t need to know a little bit more but to execute a little more. You need to get after it. If you fail, then mistakes are a perfect example of practice.
Perfection is the lowest possible standard so quit trying to be perfect. You don’t need to know everything. The best people in business are those who take action when they don’t know anything. They know what they can and then execute it with rapid massive action.
Being an entrepreneur is messy. And you have to embrace that mess and chaos. You cannot learn everything that you want to learn.
What Does It Worth?
When you are struggling, you are constantly negotiating with the worth that you must go for. Is staying away from a family worth it? Is spending this much is worth it? You are negotiating the price you are paying all the time.
When you walk into the store, you cannot deny the fact that you don’t look for the goods that you want but instead the price tags.
People who come from scarcity are always negotiating the costs in their minds. Wealthy people, on the other hand, negotiate the worth. This is a thin yet significant difference between cost and worth. Is what I’m doing worth it? That is the question you ask.
On the contrary, there is the cost. In fact, the price you will pay for not winning is indefinitely greater than the rest of your life you will ever pay to win. But you are negotiating it too often.
For most people with enough failures, enough setbacks enough adversity, they can easily sell their dreams and even the future. This is the truth and you might have to face that moment.
There will be a point in your life where what you know is not enough. You will eventually arrive at some point in your life where all your preparation and knowledge will not seem enough.
You have to rely on your fate and decisions made when you negotiated the price in advance before it heads. Because the majority of people give up by saying “yeah it wasn’t for me” or “market rates were up” ,or the market crashed and all such excuses. This way you sell your dream.
Once you sell your dream, you have to sell your children’s future as well. You have sold your future, your legacy. You have to move forward from “no it wasn’t for me” to “no I’ve decided that I won’t pay this much bigger price for my grandkids”.
You have to decide that whatever you want is not hard to get at all. You are contingent and consistent to get it without any excuses. That is what entrepreneurs do. They have already sold their dreams and legacy.
You have to make up your mind that you will pay this much price if it is morally, ethically, and legally correct with advanced negotiations. And finally realizing that you and your family’s future are not for sale.
