There Is No Big Bang Theory For Success
The # 1 question asked of me: How do I make the leap from corporate slave to full time human being, living the life I love?
First of all, it is not a leap. It is a gradual change in your belief that you are indeed special and capable of doing awesome, unbelivebale things with your life. But don’t look to anyone around you at work for this type of guidance. It is very unusual ( read the “Salmon Lesson” in my e book for more clarity).
Most people spend $100K on an education to prepare them to get the best job and work for someone else the rest of their life. Entrepreneurs like myself, coach people to own businesses versus working for businesses. Would you rather flip burgers and yell “fries are up!” or would you prefer to actully own the fast food store? It’s a silly quesiton but most simply cannot see themselves as successful entrepreneurs. An oh by the way, just because you wear and suit and tie to work doesn’t mean you’re any different than the Whopper Floppers. Take out “Fries are up!” and insert “Here’s your report boss.”
So what makes someone take the big leap from slave to a job to freedom for life?
Change your thoughts.
Stop associating with people who have limiting beliefs. If you’re going to lunch with people who have maxed out credit cards, smoke, drink or cheat on their spouse - run for the hills. Devleop a belief system that you YES YOU can change your life right now. Start believing. Without the proper thought process you can forget about taking action, you will be stifled by your negative thoughts.
My three favorite books to help anyone on their way to living the life they love and making that gradual change from stressed out slave to Champion are: Rich Dad Poor Dad, Think And Grow Rich and Richest Man In Babylon. I still refer to these three classics when I am seeking wisdom.
Remember, it’s not a huge one time leap into the success arena. It is slow methodical daily action steps that after awhile, you look back and say “Wow, I made it! The journey seemed so long and difficult while I was in it but as I look back it really wasn’t that bad.” Then you transfer that knowledge to someone else who is ready to receive. Giving starts the receiving process.
You are a champion.
