| Most people have a long list of reasons why they can't achieve their goals and dreams.
Can't lose weight? Can't build side income? Can't find the time to learn and better themselves? They will happily give you a long list of reasons why.
They will tell you things like...
"What do you mean I need to go out and exercise? I'm exhausted after my day job. All I have energy for is to crash in front of my TV!"
"What do you mean I should pick up a book? I work hard and I deserve rest eating fast food and scrolling mindlessly through the Facebook feed!"
"What do you mean if I created an information product I would have a passive income stream? Look at all the things I need to do around the house. Plus, isn't that super complicated?"
You get the picture.
They'll blame lack of time, they'll blame the taxes, they'll blame China, and they'll blame everything except one thing.
Themselves.
Now let's be real here. A lot of people are overworked, anxious, and desperate. There could be a ton of legitimate reasons why you perhaps don't have an ounce of energy left at the end of the day. And I'll be the first to admit it's not enough to just think positive, adjust your attitude, and wait for things to magically start happening.
This might hit too close to home - and if that's the case, good!
There's one thing you need to ask yourself. Do you feel deep inside that even though you're tired right now, and there's no time in your life right now to improve anything... Life still has a lot more to give.
Would you agree if someone told you that you are destined for something greater than this? At least subconsciously? That if you were given the right set of tools and circumstances... you could do much more?
If your answer to any of the above is yes... read on.
Because you're right. But it's not going to be easy.
There's a great quote by the great late Jim Rohn... that holds the solution to this.
"Don't wish it was easier... wish you were better!"
What if instead of coming up with reasons why you can't do something...
You came up with little tiny ways you could improve yourself every day?
If you dream of losing weight and having more energy throughout the day, what if you deliberately parked your car at the furthest possible spot when you're at the mall from now on?
If you dream of building a side business... what if you sat down, found one potential customer, and contacted them? Then, watched a Youtube video on how to do it better... and repeated the process the next day?
What if you're building an online business... what if you went out and invested in education on how to do that?
If you focused on tiny little improvements like these... you'd automatically get better and better every single day.
Soon... everything would start getting easier.
By the way, if you do this you'll soon notice your energy levels spiking.
That's what purpose does to you.
So once again, don't wish it was easier... Wish you were better.
To Your Success, Paul Hanson
