Self Doubt & Excuses GET YOU NOWHERE...


I see this in forums...

I see this on Facebook...

I hear this outside...

I get this from my subscribers...


My response?

You need to do what needs to be done. Just say
what needs to be said. Listen to the things you
need to hear. Learn what you need to learn and
explain what you need to explain.

There are people out there who need you, who are
looking for those solutions that you have, and the
assistance that you can provide them, in order for
them to get to where they want to be.


If you involve yourself around unsuccessful people,
you're going to have an unsuccessful mind-set. You'll
set yourself up for failure before you have even begun.

It can be tough and it does suck at times. But rather
than constructing excuses for yourself...


Just Get Them Done.


You want to master Video Marketing? Then do it. You
want to build that list of subscribers who are going to
love you and always buy from you? By any means...


Get It Done.


Instead of letting things slip and continue to weigh you
down, any setback is a lesson learnt.

Your failures are you best teacher and it's a process
we all face in life.

Every investment you make, whether it's money or
your time. You're learning something. Let all of your
actions energize you.


Avoiding any efforts accomplishes nothing positive. No
one said this was going to be easy. Don't sit back and
think about "what if" and start making every effort until
you've said "I did".

If you know what you want, you'll see it as light as day.
You can see what must be done.


Stop hesitating...

Quit worrying...

Don't complain...


Embrace every challenge, embrace every investment
and learn from it. You know what you need to do. So do it.

    People like to complain but they don't like to do anything about it! If you truly desire change you will learn to just accept where you are at currently, and do whatever it takes to change your current situation, no matter if it is hard , no matter if it takes you going the extra mile, people just need to make it happen and stop making excuses! Complaining will get you no where fast and until you realize that than you're never going to get anywhere.

      So true. Only 3 steps are needed to create authentic change in your life.
      Accept where you are right now.
      Decide you don't want to stay there.
      Do something different than what you have been doing.

      OK, I guess as a corollary to those, its important to commend yourself for having successfully completed those 3 steps, and give yourself a reward. That is truly the fuel that makes your engine rev into high gear.

      This forum is chock full of people writing about feeling crappy even after they have done such and such an action. Many times, if not most, they missed doing one of those steps, or didn't congratulate themselves for moving forward.

      Absolutely. With no goal, AKA a desire to have or be something different than you see in your present circumstances, you are going to expend a whole big ole' bunch of energy and will still be in the same place.

    Being responsible and holding people accountable is one of my first tenants.

    Drive is one of the single greatest predictors of success. People are not successful if they do what is right (well, not usually). People are successful because they keep going and make what they are doing right.
