Can I beta male be a good businessman?
Just had a business meeting on Saturday as our coach/consultant is going aboard next week. I done a ton of work in these last few months and invested over 9 months of unpaid work into this project. And I still feel uncertain about success, what I mean is it could work on a small level and grow over time but a few things keep coming up for me as stress.
I guess I had unrealistic expectations timewise . Why has the brain got to know what will happen all the time even in an uncertain future.
I don’t know what to expect in the future and this thing about having faith and positive thinking has sometimes made me overlook many things in a business sense that may be perceived as negative.
If at first you fail .....
But I remember Mr Hill, If a plan goes wrong that means there was something that needs to be fixed, so I won’t give up easy no matter what .
The most excellent thing about it all is that last year I would have reacted as if my life depended upon the success of this business and I would not have been able to handle the stress and uncertainty .
Now am more confidence in my ability to learn new skills and adapt, so what ever happens I won’t give up on my dream of freedom and been who I have the potential to be.
I just took an hour walk into town to clear my head and headpain and did the homework my hypnotherapist gave to me. I had time to think and reflect, and I have decided its for the best, too much success too fast could be a bad thing, I have to learn to manage what I have now, the little to manage a lot.
If I fail it won’t be for lack of effort.
A few words from Jim Rohn
“The difference between success and failure is so subtle. Let me explain by giving you my definitions of failure and success. Failure is a few errors in judgment repeated every day. The man says, “Well I didn’t walk around the block today and it didn’t kill me, so it must be okay.” No. It is that kind of error in judgment after six years that has him out of breath and panting as he walks from his car to his office. You can’t make those kinds of mistakes; it will end up costing you.
Now, here is my definition of success: A few simple disciplines practiced every day. Do you see the distinction? A few disciplines…. Here’s a little phrase we’ve all heard, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” And my question to you is, “What if that’s true?” How simple and easy is that plan?”
Short Term Goal #1 – Early Riser
I made good progress but AM5 Stage 2 seems to be messing with this goal new sleep issues have arisen and I think I need more sleep to progress the new suggestions.
I used to work all night and sleep all day but now am awaking in the morning.
Short Term Goal #3 – Week Day Ritual
Am doing most of the stuff everyday, I have managed to do the brainwave entrainment everyday as I need that to raise my waves from the theta laced Visualization I do as soon as I get up, it one of the reason I get out of bed easier.
I have also been reading I started on the Masterkey each section is short so it takes me a few mins and I read the same section over the span of a week do the excises and answer the questions at the end to see how well I internalized the week’s section. I have been doing my daily walks too I will replace this with the gym in due time.
I have not been meditating at all am finding it hard to find the time, and I have not been doing my evening reading everyday too.
Well I guess am trying to change to many habits at once, I should have started with a few at first then when they became automatic moved on. Too late to turn back now.
Redefining my goals
I will need to refine my goals at some point in the next few months for many reasons. First I made them at a point in my life where I was trying to make up for lost time.
Trying to be normal would mean I lost years of my life in depression and suffering, so I looked like trying to be great would make up for lost time, thus making me feel “normal” like everyone else. Its emotional but that’s the logic, makes sense too.
Second I have had many unrealistic expectations that will make my fail and get discouraged, not because it was never going to work but because I didn’t give it enough time and resources, eg it takes 10000 hours to master something (well its said), I would give myself 5000 hours including time to master accerated learning. Patrice truly is a virtue that leads to mastery.
When am clear of the bulk of my issues I would probably look back on my first goals and wonder what the F**K I was thinking. Or….. who knows, we’ll have to see
Imagine how successful I will be in a this time next year will 100 new powerful habits.
Can't wait
