Can we talk real stuff for a minute?
Trying to be perfect is exhausting.
It is painful.
You never make it to perfection.
There I said it.
I have people ask me often what is it I do. They want to do the same thing but they never get started because the beginning looks overwhelming.
I totally understand that because I was once a beginner.
You are probably in better shape than I was because in 2009 I didn’t know how to copy and paste. I am not joking.
In the grand scheme of marketing and building a business what you see online has nothing to do with what is going on behind the scene.
No matter how large a person or the company seems to be. All you are seeing is the success on the front end and not all the failure and stumbles in the backend.
The fact is we ALL deal with bad weather, medical issues, family problems, work schedules, financial issues, troubles or concerns.
I use to be scared to even mention bad days because I didn’t want people to judge me.
Do you know what? They will anyway. It makes no difference how good your spelling is, how nice your home is or awesome your business is or is not growing.
- People will judge.
- People will be nasty.
- People will assume.
You have to present your best behaviour on social media and someone will send you a nasty message.
Why do we fear to be ourselves and allow total strangers opinions to keep us from doing what we are supposed to be doing? or want to do?
We as humans are wired to avoid pain and hurt. We all have past issues and if it was painful we do whatever we can to avoid the repeat.
I have had people say things to me that completely shut me down to the point I didn’t want to be in family gatherings or large crowds out of fear of dealing with someone’s nasty comment or opinion.
We can choose to stay in a corner, piled up in a box, sit in the dark and avoid everything that makes us uncomfortable or we can stand up dust ourselves off and move through things that make us cringe
I can make money every single day but money doesn’t buy the kind of legacy I want to leave behind.
I hate to break it to you NONE of us will get out of this world alive in this body. You may live a long time but you will not stay here forever.
If you are still reading this lonnnnnng post. I am talking to you. You are hiding behind yourself in fear or what others may say.
Well let me help you out sweetheart… they will say it either way. If you want to confuse people or even shut down the opinions go out there and make a difference.
Do I want you to work with me? Absolutely!
Will I do the work for you? Absolutely not.
Will, I guide you and point you in the right direction. You bet your sweet buns I will.
Will you get frustrated? feel lost, confused, excited and celebrated? Yes, yes and Yes… sometimes all in the same day.
Would you like to map out a plan? Lets set up a time to chat. Is it free? Nope. No one ever appreciates free anything.
You can set that up here
All I do know…is you are not suppose to continue to sit and think about it a day longer. Stand up and fold your pitty blanket and let’s get busy.
