The number 1 objection that keeps your brain down

I don’t have the time. That’s the excuse that 99% of people use to justify their fears. Because it’s not laziness. It’s fear. ​ Fear to fail, but also fear to success. And, if the last one seems incredible to you, I have to tell you that it’s really common. ​ The average person in the US watches 3 hours TV… per day. In Europe, very similar. Now adds a few more hours of scrolling without purpose… every day. ​ And of course, they don’t have time. They are too busy watching news, checking Facebook or whatever it’s the new big thing in the socialmediasphere. ​ They are more worried about the next Elon’s fart than in making a better life for themselves. They try to save a dime when buying a book or any kind of training… but no question about Netflix, Disney or else. They can skip dessert in a restaurant to save a few bucks but then spending without hesitation money in useless entertainment… or time, which is worst. ​ Well… in a few minutes, you can learn a lot… even you can get entertained… the thing that I would love the most though is if you take any of those lessons and do something with them.

Of course, he didn’t know the birthday of all his contacts. Of course, not. But that didn’t matter. The fact is that around 90% of them answered back thanking for the card, but informing that the date of their birthday was wrong. Contact made. Conversation initiated. Sales made. Many of you will be saying: I can’t do that People will get upset He was...
Yes, you can. But you know what you need to get there… Don’t you know? Yes. Action. Start doing. Stop thinking and do, do and do. As simple as that. As hard as that. Nothing can be done without you doing it. Nobody can do it for you. Don’t wait for the divine providence to come with the work that only you can do. It’s scaring, I agree. You can lose time. You can lose reputation. You can lose money. But… You can learn. You can grow. You can reach freedom. Up to you. Time to think about what...
When you have something truly valuable to offer the world, don’t beat around the bush or hide behind metaphors. Offer it straight up. No sugar-coating. No fluff. No perfect words. Or borrowed-from-books strategy. Or watched-in-social-media approach. Just raw and real. That’s exactly how I operate when a company or individual asks me for advice. Unfiltered. Without Vaseline. I tell them what’s really going on — and it’s usually not what they want to hear. I say it with fewer words and less...
