Are you numb to losing? I think I was.
I recently entered a speaking competition and lost.
It had been a long time since I knew, flat out that I had lost to someone. And the loss I had in a contest was a rude awakening - I LOST‼️
No excuses, I got beat.
When you want to reach your goal so bad you can taste it nothing can quench your thirst but achieving the goal.
‼️I didn’t mean to do it but it happened again.
I coasted in August instead of…
grinding hard on my goals.
Seven strong month of efforts and
I got comfortable and let my guard down.
It happens. We all do it sometimes.
Are you doing it right now?
But this time I realized it quickly and now I’m back to kicking and fighting to
surpass all my goals.
💯Can you name at least 10 milestones to adulthood?
I’m struggling on one right now, leaving for college💔
But sad and proud of him as I’m am, my thoughts go to business.
Even before we had him, I knew nearly every milestone needed to be an adult.
‼️LinkedIn bullies exist‼️Surprised too? But no bully can stop me.
John’s comment only fired me up even more to help people💯
I’m sorry his life is such that he needed to resort to bullying and lashing out at me for trying to help others.
💪🏼My son needed a motivation talk (aka a kick in the butt)
He was letting himself down which is far worse than letting me down
He was not performing as well as he could for his football team and I don’t mean on the field.
Even though right now you may be experiencing an awesome time of growth and more business than you’ve ever had, you can’t stop doing the fundamentals to keep growth.
There’s no promise this period of prosperity will be here tomorrow and it’s the work you do on your business now that will sustain your growth past the end of the COVID growth spurt.
🛑 My wife stopped me dead in my tracks with a much needed reminder.
I was furious at her😡but she was right....
And I couldn’t be more #thankful to her now
Sometimes we all need to little course correction when our #priorities aren’t right.
💡Each failure brings you closer to the next success.
but quitting…
stops the process altogether.
The secret in business no one ever tells you is its constant up and down emotional ride.
It’s often tougher than raising kids.
🤔If Post Likes, Comments and Shares are your goal
You got it all wrong…
