Today was listening to more of "No More Mr. Nice Guy" and got very confused and scared. I decided to not do sales today because of it. But really, it was all a front for my laziness, even though the fear and confusion was real. I just wanted to get clarity but it was a convenient excuse to not work.
In the end, I realized I'm only harming myself by not working. Self-sabotage.
Also, I realized that a lot of my obsession with getting good in sales is actually a fear of success. I stop myself from working because I'm supposedly trying to figure something out, but in reality it's just me stopping myself so I don't succeed.
If I wasn't afraid of succeeding I'd just keep putting in the time and reaping the rewards. Well I will from now on. I feel relieved to have made this realization because it means I just have to hold myself accountable and recognize the triggers and I can be on the right track.
I've also got a powerful reward I give myself when I follow through with my commitments and I hope, over time, I can re-wire my brain to keep doing it.
Had a couple other epiphanies today and a online convo with a girl that went nowhere. Look forward to working with my PUA coach. I already paid him but it was too late last Friday so I asked him to reschedule our call for this Friday. Looking forward to it.
Hopefully I can tie up all the loose ends and have a clarity moving forward before the end of the year.
