5 struggles
- Control Freak: I have to sometimes have things lined up and spelled out before executing. Playing out multiple scenarios. This leads to paralysis by analysis.
2. Pressure on myself / sacrificing time away from my family to pursue business and financial/time freedom. Moved my family to a new state to start over 2 times. All the after being successful in business but maxing it out.
3.Having anxiety/worry about finances/money motivated:
4. Fear of being left behind: people leave, friends, gfs, family. Loss of something I’ve built is devastating. Losing a life and a business and a lifestyle. Needing to rebuild.
5. Hyper-focus and burnout : go go go until I crash . Workaholic. I will work for hours on end and lose sleep over ideas unfinished
5 Contrasting Wins
- Allows me to see the big picture and bring it back. I’m forced to execute and make a decision and go with it. I have control over the fires that are made and how I put them out.
- I go where opportunities are…creating opportunities is the only way to win. You can’t just sit back and expect it to happen. Sometimes sacrifice is required. And its uncomfortable
- Gives me drive and discipline to stay focused on the goal to provide for m family
- Gives me a fuck you attitude. Sit back and watch what I can do. I not only did it once but am repeating it from scratch and from experience
- I get a lot done but it forces me to prioritize sleep and my health. if I break up takes into small bites I feel accomplished and like Im driving the needle forward every dat.
