Loading ...A few months back my wife and I went to New York to see a Broadway play. Now anyone who knows me knows that this was purely an act of love on my part since I can’t sit thru plays. I find most to be really really boring and I snore very loudly .
NOT GOOD !
But this play was different . AVENUE Z is the name of this play and I would encourage you to go see it if you ever get a chance. So what’s this got to do with your mindset?
THE KEY THEME IN THIS PLAY WAS…
It sucks to be me! Well that statement woke me up! I grabbed a pad and pen and started making notes .( lesson- always carry a 3 X 5 card or small pad with a pen so when you get those flashes of inspiration or brilliance you can capture it)
A lot of people I come in contact with have this “It sucks to be me” mentality. Honestly I have very very little patience for it. But there is a major theme here that I would like to discuss with you.
Whenever you start feeling that OH POOR ME feeling grab a piece of paper and go to a quiet place and start writing and thinking about the WHY ! What is causing you to feel that way?
Sometimes you may need to find out WHO is making you feel this way. Here’s a thought I want /need you to burn into your brain.
YOU ONLY GET WHAT YOU ACCEPT!!!!
Here’s another one. It’s one I have been using a lot lately trying to get the www.loanofficerformula.com site and community launched.
AN EXCUSE IS AN EXCUSE WHETHER IT’S VALID OR NOT IS IRRELEVANT!
I mention this because GOOD THINGS happen when you finally take control and eliminate all excuses! Most big inventions that have improved our daily lives have come about because of this thinking!
Stop allowing real or imagined excuses stop you ! Really!
When you are 100 % focused on achieving a goal you must have that feeling of NOTHING and NOONE will STOP ME ! Yes there are legitimate excuses but you don’t have to accept them. ( please read that again! One more time!)
For every reason that may stop you there is always a solution. But most simply view it as a brick wall instead a small speed bump!
Go ahead right now and start thinking about what’s holding you back and why it might “suck “ to be you.
The market sucks- Maybe it’s your marketing? My coaching and consulting clients are doing just fine.
The Economy Sucks- Yes- but that is also a great opportunity. First there will be less competition. Second- People still buy! You don’t HAVE TO participate in the meltdown!
I could write an entire book about all of the people who have become seriously wealthy during these types of economic meltdowns but this is a thought you are either with me on or not!
Now get going! I want to hear you saying HOW GREAT IT IS TO BE ME!
