3 Ways To Increase Your Rock Star Success
Does it feel like it's taking forever to get your career going, launch your brand, or build a real business? Do you feel like you're stuck in neutral and can't get any forward momentum going? You might be suffering from resistance.
Anytime you start venturing into unknown territory, start a new project or launch a big venture - resistance shows up! And it's one of the big reasons why you're not living the life of your dreams.
For me, resistance usually shows up disguised as procrastination. And it's a sign to me that I'm avoiding something new or different in my life. You see, resistance is simply a test; a test to see if you really want what you're striving for.
So when resistance appears - in whatever form that is for you - take a moment and think about whether you want to stay stuck or you want to move on to the next level.
Then, assuming you truly want to move to the next level, take these three steps to start overcoming resistance:
#1 - Stop With The Excuses!
Are you waiting for that "lucky break" to kick your career into high gear? Stop! It's time to take control of your destiny and quit letting excuses hold you back. Were you taught to "play it safe" and to have a "Plan B"? There is no plan B when it comes to playing BIG. Stop letting setbacks and delays convince you that you're not ready.
If you have a need or a desire, you also have the ability to manifest it in your life right now. Make the decision to move forward and don't leave any room for options. Decide to choose happiness, excellence and success. As Napoleon Hill says in "Think and Grow Rich", burn all the bridges so there's no chance of going back.
#2 - Find Out WHY You Are On This Path
Having fame or fortune will not make you happy until you know what makes you shine! Ask yourself: What makes me get up in the morning? What am I passionate about? Do I long for a certain lifestyle? Dream of making a statement or a big difference in the world? Do I want the freedom that wealth brings?
Find out what brings you joy, what you love about your dream and all the parts that come with that lifestyle, and surprisingly, you'll find new ways to elevate your game.
#3 - Make The Decision Now
Are you treating your dream like a hobby? It's not a hobby. It's your life!
Take bold action and don't look for luck. As my mentor David Neagle says, "The decision to do whatever you want to do must come first. Once that decision comes first, the way will be shown"
Once you make a commitment, things will start miraculously showing up for you like the right big deal, the right manager, the perfect sponsorship deal; everything you need to catapult yourself to the next level.
The Next Time You Find Yourself Limiting Yourself...
... stop... and remember that limits are purely a state of mind. When you think limiting thoughts, you become limited. When you believe in yourself, you open yourself to big possibilities. When resistance rears its ugly head, take these three steps - no more excuses, remember your "why" and take action - and watch your dreams soar to unbelievable heights!
