Picture your vision of a successful person or entrepreneur. Got it? What does it look like?
Do they have they have the perfect business, the perfect life, car, lifestyle, etc.? Making money and growing their business seems to come easy for them. They've got it all figured out, right? Wrong. The reality of becoming successful is that it is a big hot mess of craziness that never really goes as planned. And it's awesome! Always remember that people are praised in public for all of the hard work, effort, overcoming adversity, and hustle they do in private. You just see the end result. Grant Cardone, he's got issues and challenges just like anyone else - they are just a lot bigger and more complicated. Gary Vee, same thing. He's works like no other behind the scenes to make his vision a reality. It's the same for any very successful person you think of. They didn't get there in a straight line. They had many detours, twists, turns, and obstacles along the way. The good news for you is if they were able to do it so can you. And that is the lesson. Never forget that people have come before you and have been able to accomplish amazing things. Great things. But they overcame a lot more to reach those levels. You have to have the same attitude on your journey toward your vision. More importantly, you have to understand that you will have many, many challenges to overcome to get it. You will have to understand that you will want to quit many times. And in the midst of all that, you will have to keep going. A few pieces of advice that I received and made a huge impact on me persevering to reach my vision were the following: 1.) The bigger the problems you can handle, the bigger your business and you can grow. You have to grow yourself bigger than any problem or challenge you might encounter. 1.) When times get tough, tell yourself, "I'll do it just one more day." Tell yourself that every day until times aren't tough any more. 3.) Focus on what you can control and cope with what you can't. There is no point in wasting time, energy, and emotion on things you have no ability to affect or control. It does you no good and derails you. Instead focus intently on what you can control and affect and make sure that it is as good as it can possibly get. 4.) Beliefs lead to thoughts, thoughts lead to feeling/emotions, feelings/emotions lead to actions, and actions lead to results. Take out every word but the first and last...what do you get? Beliefs = Results. What you believe about yourself, your success, your vision, anything will manifest in the results you have. Make sure you input (beliefs) are the best thing to drive your output (results) and challenge yourself in this area. Becoming successful is amazing journey in which no one ever fully knows how they will get there, but the ones that succeed are the ones that point themselves in a direction and start walking. The understand and are prepared to overcome challenges and figure it out along the way.
