Jouw concurrent is niet iemand anders. Jouw concurrent is jouw uitstelgedrag, jouw negatieve gedachten, jouw comfortzone. Strijd daartegen!

Vanochtend de laatste lessen van de Skool community afgekeken. Goed begin van de dag en gemotiveerd om weer te gaan bellen vandaag!

Vanmorgen dit voor mezelf opgeschreven. Ik merkte dat ik mijn cold calls aan steeds het uitstellen was. Niet met doomscrollen, maar juist met productieve dingen: de was doen, kamer opruimen, lezen, etc. Ik doe dit omdat ik bang ben voor afwijzing, waarschijnlijk ben ik niet de enige die dit wel eens voelt... De oplossing van deze 'productive procrastination' is het 'Do Something Principe'. → Niet wachten op motivatie. Gewoon één kleine actie doen. Dit zorgt ervoor dat het balletje gaat rollen, en dat je momentum voor jezelf creeërt om het bellen gewoon weer op te pakken. Ook moet ik mijn mindset veranderen, zodat ik rejection niet zo persoonlijk opvat, maar meer als extra datapunten om verder te groeien. Ik deel dit om mezelf accountable te houden en hier bewust aan te blijven werken.

People focus on the money and the fame, but that’s not the real focus. The real focus is excellence. Excellence is what brings you money. Excellence is what brings you fame. And the moment you start thinking about the fame and the money instead of thinking about excellence, you’ve lost your way.A lot of people lose their way. The money starts coming in, the fame starts coming in, and all of a sudden you’re just thinking about numbers. You’re thinking about the house you’re going to buy, the car you’re going to drive, all that stuff, and you lose your way. One of the things I always try to tell people, especially young comedians, is to think about attention like it has a numerical value. Imagine if you had a hundred dollars. You can only spend a hundred dollars. Your mind works the same way. You only have a certain number of units of focus. Any focus you put on things outside of what brings you excellence is stealing from excellence. That’s all it is. If you’re focused on haters on social media, or you have someone in your life who’s creating chaos, or you’ve got people around you who secretly want to see you fail, all of that is distracting. And it’s robbing attention from excellence. Some of that stuff is unavoidable. Some of it even builds resilience. It teaches you how to stay focused and still be excellent despite adversity. But your focus is precious. Protect your focus. Protect your time. Protect your energy. Your mind and your drive, that’s everything in your life. That’s all you really have. And anything that steals from that is dangerous. There are people in your life who will do that. Sometimes intentionally, sometimes not. They need attention. They need to feel important. And they’ll pull that focus away from what matters most to you. You have to recognize when you’re dealing with someone like that. And sometimes, you have to cut them out. Because they’re stealing from your focus. They’re stealing from your ability to create excellence. And excellence is what you’re in the business of.
