The person you've been
Change is so difficult because it can turn you into someone who might disagree with you...
| |
|
Could be true...
It's a lot harder to succeed at the things you don't enjoy doing than it is to succeed at the things you enjoy doing. Keep that in mind...

|
Solve the problem...
If you feel that you're not moving fast enough, then you should consider getting rid of all the other options you have. That should solve the problem...
| |
|
It might actually work out...
Remember: If you do what's realistic, then you'll end up doing what everybody else is doing. And when you do what everybody else is doing, you'll end up competing with everybody else who's competing with everybody else. So every once in a while, try to do what nobody else is doing. Try to do what's unrealistic. Because it might actually work out...

No money...
None of the skills you really need in life require money. And instead, they require time, commitment, perseverance and courage...

|
You've gotta focus on one thing...
You can't be digging too many holes simultaneously when you're thirsty and running out of time, energy, or resources...

The safe thing...
The safe thing rarely leads to surprises. Neither good ones nor bad ones. Try to keep that in mind...

How you did those things...

No one will
Just because everybody can do it, doesn't mean that everybody will do it. In fact, almost no one will...
| |
|
Two different things entirely...
The challenge is that all of the decisions we have to make are about the future. But all our information, knowledge and experience is based on the past. Unfortunately, the past and the future are usually two different things entirely...

|
Playing...
Don't play when everybody else is playing. Play when no one else is playing. Then you might have a chance of winning...
| |
|
I'm done...
You're done when you've tried everything you can do. Even the stuff you can't do...
| |
|
What's safe today...
What's safe today often becomes a risk tomorrow. And what's a risk today often becomes a sure thing tomorrow...
| |
|
What works today...
What works today will probably not work anymore tomorrow. And what doesn't work today will probably work tomorrow. Keep that in mind...
| |
|
Big difference...
It's the consumers that are getting poorer and poorer. And the producers that are getting richer and richer. Big difference... The good news: Today, anybody can be a producer...
| |
|
Time to reassess...
The things you believe in are holding you back. Just like the things you don't believe in. It's time to reassess...
| |
|
Waiting isn't...
Getting started is the only way. To gain experience. A reputation. A network. Credibility. And skills. Waiting isn't...
| |
|
Because of this...
When you're just getting started, people will never buy from you just because of features. Or price. Or speed. Or ease of use. Or even quality. First and foremost, people will buy from you because they trust you. Act accordingly...
| |
|
If you let them...
The things that are threatening you today may turn into opportunities tomorrow...
