On our podcast today, I have a call to action for most of you listening - including yours truly!
Are you putting the YOU in your hustle?
REALLY step back and think about this one for a bit. I'm not hinting that you or I aren't working hard. What I'm referring to is, who benefits the most from your hustle? Is it you? Or are you busting your butt to build someone else's dream? If it's the first option - BRAVO! If it's the second - we have A LOT of work to do!
Regardless of what you have to do to free up time and work on your own hustle - DO IT!
Does that mean you drop the Softball, Bowling, or Fantasy Sports Leagues? Do you stop binge-watching Netflix? Do you give up partying or playing poker on the weekends? Or do you quit sleeping in? It depends. Do you want to win? Or do you want to watch your boss or competition keep winning?
There's an awesome African Proverb that's extremely fitting for this podcast.
“Every morning in Africa, an antelope wakes up. It knows it must outrun the fastest lion, or it will be killed. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the slowest antelope, or it will starve. It doesn’t matter whether you’re the lion or an antelope – when the sun comes up, you’d better be running.”
Don't wait until you're backed into a corner to take action. Make your actions benefit YOU!
If you read the book, "The Slight Edge" by Jeff Olson - you'll know that if you string together more slight disciplines over slight errors in judgment - you'll be on your way to success! And compounded by time - those disciplines will make all the difference in the world! But you have to start making them!
And guess what? You can do it!
