Posting this here for anyone that might get some value from it .

For me, this is the year of asking.

I think identified a limiting mindset problem I have that most likely stemmed from my childhood of always being told no..

I don’t ask enough.

Simply asking can be the difference between the start of something fantastic, or never knowing or trying.

Ask and you shall receive as they say.

I realised that I didn’t have a fear of failure, it was more a fear offending someone and putting them out of their way by asking.

If you ask and get a no.. no one cares. Even if you ask the most heinous of things… most people forget and don’t care.

All it takes is a few yes’s to potentially get something going.

So this year… if all else fails… asking is going to be the big thing I take away from it.

Shout out to the million dollar weekend for this golden advice.

I was wondering if that is where you got it, I remember it being a point of emphasis.

Ask and it shall be given to you. - Matthew 7:7

But this is a metaphor. You don't have to say any words - your actions speak louder than you can imagine.

I would skip the talking and jump straight into action.

Don't ask for permission. Don't ask for ideas. Don't ask for feedback. Most people are clueless anyway and won't be able to help you.

Make this year the year of ACTION.

Yup, focus on execution and driving relative value, in something that meets CENTS.

<- It's actually way simpler than action-faking. Hard af, but you get the point.

Yes, this is the year of action too! Had a great call today with a friend who’s been very successful running an Amazon ads agency. Was great to actually ask for advice and a catch up, I reminded my self that it’s okay to ask.

Learnt a lot, caught up with a very old friend of mine, and have another call booked in Friday as he’s working on an app!

This is a win for me today.
