Fear This… Or Not
When you see someone who’s not moving forward and making progress in business, it’s usually a result of fear.
And yes, fear is much more common than you’d think.
It wasn’t that many years ago when I too used to let fear stand in the way of my progress, and my success.
I’d actually wake up in the middle of the night, worrying about the lack of munee, how I was going to pay my bills, what people thought of me, and many other issues.
In my mind, the fear was so real, that when I’d wake out of a dead sleep, I’d lie awake worrying for hours.
I just lay there thinking about what “might happen”.
As you’ve probably noticed (from the photos on the website), I’m not the most fit guy on the planet.
Truth is, I’m more than a few pounds over weight.
And I used to spend a lot of time, fearing what other people thought of me.
But here’s what I discovered:
Most folks are far too busy with their own lives to even give a second’s thought to me, what I look like or the fact that I’m a little over weight.
In fact, as I think back on it, no one’s ever said, “Dang Kevin, you sure are overweight”.
Nobody even cares!
And when it came to my late night financial worries (that used to keep me up till all hours of the morning), they were completely unfounded.
I spent far too much time worrying about things that would never happen.
At one point, when I was still trying to figure out how to turn a profit in my first business, I had a conversation with one of my mentors.
And let me tell you, it was one I’ll never forget!
I was telling him about my munee problems, and how I was about $29,000.00 in debt at the time, yet I still wasn’t making a profit in my business.
To this day, his response is so vivid in my mind.
I was expecting a little bit of sympathy, but that’s not what I got.
He looked me square in the eye and said, “So what!”
And it didn’t end there either.
He went on to say, “Who cares if you’re a little bit in debt. There’s many folks who’ve gone on before you - who became HUGELY successful, and yes, they too incurred some debt along the way.
You need to be thankful for the opportunity to fund your business education on someone else’s dime.
You also need to stop concentrating on what you don’t want, and start concentrating on what you DO want”.
Wow, talk about an earful.
But…
From that moment forward, I began following his advice.
And guess what…
The sleepless nights disappeared.
Gone, just like that, in an instant.
Throughout this process, I discovered that when you make your desire for improvement, stronger than your fears, nothing can stand in your way.
Dedicated to your success,
