Sup. I've been reading Unscripted recently, and when I've read about the Slowlane, MJ has always talked that they "hope" that market will play out in their favor, "hope" that they will get a promotion, etc.

I feel as if I'm also "hoping". Not about the market and the job (although I'm getting more and more to flat broke), but about my businesses.

I was "hoping" that my startup will succeed.
I was "hoping" that my ads would run well.
I am "hoping" that I will create an idea before I run out of money

And, quite frankly, I'm sick of it. It is as if I constantly gave out control to someone else.

How does one stop it? How to crystalize your "hopes" and "mind prays" into reality?

Thanks in advance, lads. You are the best.
