What I am about to share is huge. Recently I attended a Entrepreneurs Organization retreat that was facilitated, I had a few huge takeaways I wanted to share that helped me size up life.
I’ll break it up into 3 parts:
- Be. Do. Have.
- Your Results
- Your Average
Be. Do. Have.
This was by far the most simple and powerful take away for me… Be. Do. Have...too many people reverse these and say if I DO “this” then I will HAVE “this” and then I will BE certain person, or how about: If I HAVE this new person in my life, then I will start to DO the things that will make me BE the person I want to be. Always BE first. The rest will follow.
Let me give you an example, I know someone that figured if they “DO” a university degree, they would “HAVE” the job, spouse, house, car, social circle, status etc. and then “BE” happy and content with life. Guess what? This person is miserable and always complaining.
Always BE first, don’t rely on other things or people to allow you to be what you want to be… then you will naturally DO the things that let you HAVE what you want in life.
Your Results in Life
I can’t read minds, but I can tell how you think and what your belief system is all about by looking at the results you are getting out of life. Are you broke? Is the law knocking on your door? Do you constantly make a mountain out of every molehill? Are you a pathological liar?
Every morning you get up and make choices, these choices are based on your belief system, it’s these choices that you make that will determine what your results will be. If your life sucks or you constantly say FML, and bad stuff keeps happening to you I guarantee 100% you can improve your results in life by making better choices. Don’t blame anyone else but yourself for your life. If your results suck, it’s because your choices suck.
Your Average
You are the average of the 5 closest people in your life, there is no disputing this. When I hire people here at TDF, I always ask myself before the probationary period ends on a new hire: Does this person raise our level of awesomeness or lower it?” If it’s clear they are lowering it, they are out.
Get rid of the losers in your life. Seriously. I don’t care if it’s your best friend of 20 years or even family members, if you want to be a hero, you need to drop the zero’s and surround yourself with awesome people that raise your average and not lower it. If you leave a job, get a better one, if you leave your significant other, upgrade to someone better. Always upgrade.
There is only one part of the universe you can control, and that’s yourself. Work on your mind, and how you see the world, I promise you have tons more control over your world than you think. There are no magic potions, hocus pocus, magic wands, horoscopes or voodoo witch doctors that can predict your future, its all bollocks, you are in the drivers seat. If you want to be successful in life, learn from other successful entrepreneurs like eCom babes Cortney Fletcher. Don’t listen to losers, they often only offer opinions and guidance based on what’s good for them, rather than you. Listen to your gut, mine has never let me down.
