Entrepreneurship On Steroids!

[zen]

I didn't feel any improvement in my productivity and motivation. Quite the contrary. During stage 4 and partially in stage 5, I was serene, thinking I have everything in the world, I deserve everything, I'm a multimillionaire, I can afford everything, etc. Ok, it was good, but it scared me a ton because when I looked closely at my daily tasks, I had shit to do which was crucial.

...

I will focus solely on the business started last year. No more subs or other personal development stuff for a while. Just grinding and having fun with my life. A lot of activities need to be done, and I cannot afford any megalomaniac thinking at the moment.

This sounds like fear based resistance to me. I believe you have a fear of letting go of control and letting it all happen by itself. I hypothesise that you believe that if you don't take action it will lead to negative outcomes and that you're afraid that letting go of your wantingness for money will lead you to have no money. Both these thoughts and similar thoughts are just fears. Based on my personal experience you're probably about to realise that you've been wasting your life focusing so much on money and that's a pretty scary thing to admit to. Keep going my friend, finish BASE and let the chips fall where they may--you don't need to be the originator of all of your success and wealth in order to be a successful entrepreneur.

Hey man!

I agree with your thoughts and thanks to BASE I made it possible to get super detached from my current work, maybe too much I must say.

From my experience with this sub, BASE is made to be like a journey. This is good, of course, but that journey might not match exactly my current reality of business. October, November, and January are KEY months to my business. And I cannot afford to leave this behind just because I listen to a script that makes me too dreamy or detached or whatever.

In my way of seeing things, entrepreneurship is about RESULTS. Everything else is secondary. You get results by being motivated and productive.

To sustain this super energy, of course, you will need some periods of rest, of recharging your batteries, of detachment. But these should not influence in a negative way the purpose for your business - RESULTS aka. MAKING MONEY by providing some form of value.

Every successful entrepreneur thinks this way, even Elon Musk and other visionaries like him. Before being able to construct and implement your vision, you need money in one form or another. You could read the autobiography of Musk and you will be surprised of his way of thinking. It has nothing to do with the shiny presentations he gives to the general public. Quite the contrary.

I'm profoundly thankful for having run BASE, even incompletely as it was - it changed a lot of personal beliefs, it brought manifestations into my life, it changed some parts of my personality. But I will NEVER use BASE to improve my daily operations.

I see BASE as a high-level MENTAL COACH - it helped a ton with the changes I had to make. But only as this level, as a mental coach, not an aid to increase my productivity and motivation.

If I think closely, I'm super happy that I didn't run this sub last year when I was hyper-invested in my business. I am 100% sure I would have never achieved the results I've got. That doesn't mean I will never run it again in the future. In fact, I'm considering it somewhere next year when I want to focus more on strategy, marketing, outsourcing but not creating content anymore. I think BASE might play an important role in some of the decisions I'm about to make.

Again, technically it's impossible to continue running as I cannot be consistent until the very end because of some changes that appeared in my life.
