Hey Fastlaners,
I want to share the exact moment with you that I believe turned my life around. This was my FTE. I finally had enough of the ‘struggle’.
The weather was very cold, windy and rainy. I was riding my scooter to the office at 6 in the morning. It was still dark. Besides being freezing cold I felt tired from working 7 * 14hr days for years on row and hungry because I lived on peanut butter sandwiches for three months because I had no money coming in from my ‘business’.
I was soaked to the bone, and rain kept pouring on my face and getting in my eyes. My hands were freezing and when I looked at them they where swollen and blue from the cold. I felt hopeless and small. I looked around and I saw no one on the road.
In that moment, something snapped.
I started screaming.
AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGHHH!!!!!
I started to cry and then alternate crying with screaming. I couldn't take it anymore. I had reached my breaking point.
AAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGHHH!!!
I screamed as hard as I could. I don’t believe anyone ever screamed harder than me at that moment.
AAAAAAAAAAAARRGH!!!!!!!!!
I looked around again and there was still no one to be seen. It was Sunday morning and everyone was still in bed. And here I was driving to the office in the rain for yet another long workday.
I thought about all the things I did in the previous years to become successful. The two failed businesses, The missed birthday parties, The friends I lost because I was always working and all the lonely sleepless nights I faced while thinking of my dreams.
I kept screaming.
But now the scream started to slowly transition into a more powerful one.
I thought about the determination I showed to finish my uni. I thought about the fit body that I had accomplished a few years before. I thought about all the persistence I showed in the last years. All the struggle I went through and I thought: ‘Look at me. Here I am on Sunday morning. No one to be seen. And i’m ready to work again as the resilient motherfcker I am’.
I screamed again.
The scream started to feel good. I felt determination and hope now. I started to scream even harder.
AAAAARGHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After this last scream I started to laugh like a villain in a movie. In this very moment I decided to never give up on my goals. I decided that nothing would ever stop me.
Through the pressure I went and I came out as a diamond.
No more excuses, no more wantrepreneurship, no more fear, no more porn addiction, no more insecurity. I made a decision right then and there that I was done with all that nonsense. I was going to become successful.
The situation felt like a metaphor for all the setbacks and failures that I had experienced and that I would still experience in the future. I decided I could handle everything that life throws at me. I’m ready for it.
Since that transformative moment, my approach to business and my life has changed completely. I've thrown myself into it with dedication and full focus.
Things started to turn around as I took MASSIVE action. I started getting clients for my consulting company because I finally had the balls to just cold call and F*cking close them. I started to do better, But I felt like I was playing around still.
I sensed an opportunity in the solar market.
I took massive action again. And within a year from jumping on it I scaled the company to a team of 14. I’m free to do what I want during the day as the business runs without me. And the best thing? In the coming year I will become a millionaire at 27. Not by valuation, but by cashflow from my business. I am F*cking doing it.
With each milestone I achieve, each satisfied customer I serve, and each new project I secure, I'm reminded of the struggle I went through and my "enough is enough" moment. It fuels my determination and affirms that I made the right choice to leave behind empty promises and unfulfilled dreams. I'm on track to becoming the successful entrepreneur I always knew I could be.
And I know that you can do it too. I know you are capable of it. I know how much you want it. And I believe you can do it.
Remember, this story is not about suffering and struggle; it's about the determination to overcome struggle and setbacks to create a life of abundance and fulfillment. Embrace your F*cking suffering, and let it propel you towards greatness.
So, my dear friends, I encourage you to reflect on your own life.
Are you ready to go all in? Are you ready to burn your ships and do what you were born to do? Will you take the bull by the horns and take charge of your success? Are you really doing everything you can do?
Are you really trying?
I know you can do it. You will have setbacks, you will feel fear and you will feel lonely. At the end you are alone in this game.
But YOU know YOU can do it right? So bet on yourself, start to kick a$$ and never give up.
Here's to your unstoppable success,
I wish you all the best.
Sirrom.
