It’ll be like getting an elephant off of your back.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I know that sounds kind of dramatic but it’s true.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
The weight lifted off of your shoulders will be equivalent to a mac truck.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
That’s how it feels when people’s nagging comments and thoughtful reminders of your setbacks finally have no effect on you.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It’s truly incredible.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
But how do you get to that point?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You have to be really acquainted with yourself and what you’re doing.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
If there’s any doubt they’re going to use that opening to jab, jab, jab with their snarky remarks.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Your only armor is to be solid within yourself.⁠⠀

It happens all the time…⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You go on your computer or social media to do one thing, but end up doing another. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
The worst thing is, most of the time you never end up getting around to doing what you initially planned to do. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It happens so quickly and time goes by so fast that by the time you notice nearly an hour is gone. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It’s crazy. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You go on to make a post or find something then get sucked into celeb news or a train of funny memes. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
This is the worst kind of distraction because it’s so close to what you intended to do that it makes it difficult to avoid it. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
But you have to. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
If you don’t, you’ll never get around to doing what you need to. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
So what can you do?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Flip it. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Instead of being sucked down the rabbit hole first, stay focused then dive in after. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Make it your reward for not getting distracted. ⁠⠀

They make it look easy, don’t they?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
All you hear about is how they did this and they sold that. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
All in a flash. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Everything they do turns into an instant win. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Meanwhile, you’re still struggling to get there. It feels like you’ve tried everything but still...⁠⠀
⁠⠀
They must have something that you don’t. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
They must have an edge, like be smarter or know these ninja tricks that turn everything they touch to gold. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You’ve convinced yourself that they can pull it off and you can’t. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
But you’re wrong. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You can. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
They didn’t start with some magical trick that you didn’t. They were just consistent. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
They didn’t spend their time complaining or wondering. They put in the work to figure it out and make it happen. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And they didn’t just do it once. They did it over and over again. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You can do the same. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Don’t doubt yourself. ⁠⠀

Keep throwing and throwing and throwing shots…⁠⠀
⁠⠀
There will always be balls.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Just like when a basketball player practices their shot.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You know, they pretty much just stand in one spot, with that seems like an endless supply of basketballs. Throwing one after another, and another, and another, at the basket.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Whether or not they get it in the hoop, they just keep shooting.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It doesn’t matter if every shot is a dunk or a brick, the point is to keep going.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And that’s how you have to approach your business strategies.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Don’t let the fear of not getting in the hoop deter you from doing anything. When you avoid failure you end up avoiding growth as well.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It’s part of the process.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Instead of avoiding failure, you should set yourself up to continue in spite of it. The same way the basketball player has a bunch of balls lined up.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You need to keep the process going.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Don’t allow yourself to be able to sit around and overthink what happened. Keep it moving.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
The reality is it will happen from time to time, but the point is to keep going.⁠⠀

You don’t think you have it in ya, ugh?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
That’s why you won’t start, why you can’t finish, basically why you’re procrastinating. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
But have you ever thought about why you’re not confident enough? Probably not, because up until now you thought that confidence was all you needed.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Well, it’s not.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Having the confidence to do something is built on belief, especially when it’s something you’ve never done before.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Think about it, when you started your very first job you confidently did the hours because you believed that you would get paid for your work. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Even though you had never been paid for work or your time before. You did it for at least a couple of weeks before you got proof that you would be paid.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Prior to that first paycheck, you had no solid proof that the company would do right by you, but you did the work anyway, day in and day out.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
For whatever reason, you believed and so you did.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
You need to do that same thing here. Give yourself a reason to believe and you’ll break down the wall between you and your goal.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Because when you believe in something you know that it will happen and have the confidence to take action.⁠⠀

I just couldn’t stop. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And it was getting ridiculous. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Whenever I had sweets in the house I would just keep eating them. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I managed to control it enough so that I wasn’t eating it all at once, but I was still eating a lot. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Like, one or two times a day I’d make up an excuse to have more. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It was nuts. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
And weird at the same time because there was once a time when I wouldn’t touch it. Yet, now I couldn’t keep my hands off of it. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
After repeatedly comparing the two situations I realized that it had become a bad habit. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Much like when I don’t feel like working I make up a reason as to why doing it later would be better, I made up a reason eating the chocolate or cupcake was a good idea. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I didn’t want it to go to waste… yeah, right. 🙄⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I knew what I was doing, and it wasn’t preserving food. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
I had to stop. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Stop eating the sweets and stop procrastinating when it comes to work. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
So I did what I’d done with old bad habits, I broke it. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Now the extra cupcakes get frozen and I get to work. It’s so much easier now. ⁠⠀

What isn’t?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Really think about it. What isn’t hard?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Being broke is a struggle. Having money has its challenges.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Being a boss is hard, but being an employee isn’t exactly easy.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Whenever you’re faced with a challenge you’re going to struggle. It’s just how it goes.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
But what makes it suck is when you’re constantly struggling yet not getting any closer to what you want. ⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Sure, life throws you curveballs and you have to adjust to maintain the status quo. But it sucks when you’re doing only that.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Who wants to work that hard to stay in the same spot?⁠⠀
⁠⠀
If you have to struggle, which life has shown you that it's going to happen, you should be working towards something you want.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
Building upon what you already have, not just sitting stagnant.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
It’s a part of everything, so you might as well endure it getting closer to your thing.⁠⠀
⁠⠀
