I am staggered right now, as FINALLY business broke open like a dam bursting.
And I didn't really even do anything to cause that, it just happened as I wasn't thinking about anything at all.
Though thats not to say there wasn't a likely cause and some foundations. The big breakthrough was preceeded by kinda out growing my mentor, which was a relationship involving brand strategizing etc, I finally let go of it about two days ago. I like the guy, but I realised that PART of him was sucking on me, and it was time to go it on my own. I had no idea what awaited me, and to be honest I felt a bit scared cutting the cord but I finally had the courage to face it all on my own. So I stepped out and went off by myself.
I realise now that success in business financially is really the easy part, it is success in your soul that is hard. Money requires adjustments, and we can all do that stuff, I basically live off a few hours work a month, but thoughts, they require much more rare events to be changed forever. To be honest I was freaked out that I might never feel this way I now feel... Thats how tough the mental world is to change.
My big "dam bursting" epiphany is actually a very simple adjustment of my perspective, I realised how I could THROW myself into everything I see. As I calmly realised that, I stirred over some more specific details, and watched as my business aptitude was FIERCELY boosted until the point I laughed in fearless wonder at my capacity for SPEED and agility.
Fears like
- Who do I hire
- How do I be credible
- When do I launch
All evaporated in my fierce gaze
I sat back, and smiled gently.
There never was a rush for me to make money, I make enough and at most I really only plan to double my income in the coming months, so its not like I have to rush towards cash. So I just smiled as I realised, I succeeded while still technically pretty poor. It was a very very sweet irony. And quite a prize to feel so calm whilst owning literally only a backpack of things.
I DON'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING, thats the best part.
I can bum around forever if I like, because in my mind, I cracked the secret to financial happiness for me. Fierceness. A fire in my eyes. A heat in my breath. The ability to bear down on the goal.
I'm not sure if this changes my views on how annoying people can be etc, but it is certainly a lesson, and the thing I have learnt is, success IS IN YOUR HEAD.
I finally feel the peace
It was only that slight touch of ferocity getting perfectly balanced that did it.
And boom, click.
I feel secure and sexy.
My girl is going to LOVE this new side of me, because now I really am fearless.
Oh hell yeah, I'm pumped
