The No-Code Advantage

I had the chance to have what I had wanted for months - the chance to start something new and go big. But I backed off, I didn't go for it and I didn't leap. Instead I bowed out like a little bitch. But you know what - it was better in the long run that I didn't go for it at that moment.

Where in your life have you stepped back from the ledge and not leapt into something, but learned that the timing was better by delaying?

So after I was suddenly unemployed and had no idea what to do, I managed to find a way to build structure into my life. I started what became the single-most powerful tool in my entire arsenal - my morning routine. As I started to workout again, meditate, fuel my body with smoothies and journal in a notebook, I noticed changes begin to happen, not only internally, but externally as well.

The more consistent you are with the things that you do - the bigger results you will have. - Consistency = growth.

After a while of being unfocused, unproductive and lacking results, my employer started to notice that I wasn't an asset to them any longer. I was literally forced to exit the company and spent 3 weeks afterwards mulling around my "business opportunity" but made no real progress. It was extremely difficult to be let go at this company and be without the "safety net" of a job to pay my bills. As a result, I went straight back to the safety net of my old job - the one I had previously quit.

Going your own way and doing your own thing in business requires a lot of letting go. You have to learn to let go of expectations, ego and all kinds of things. It is the only way that you can be open to receive whatever is coming to you.

As I pursued down this rabbit hole and started to do more of a deep-dive than ever before, I found different feelings arise within me about what I wanted. I wasn't sure how to handle some things I found about my reality and myself, which was very difficult. I discovered that something was "off" and I didn't want to be in my current job anymore. So I started the process of transitioning out and it happened very fast.

Ultimately, it takes time to figure out what you want and you have to go through this process alone. I can't tell you what you want - no one else can tell you what you want. You have to figure it out on your own - but there is help!

There has been a choice or decision you've made at some point in your life that has led to the "rabbit hole" that you are currently experiencing. Whatever it is and whatever area of your life it is within, the important thing to realize is that it was YOUR CHOICE to go that direction. Not anyone else - YOU. 

So, with that in mind, what rabbit hole are you currently down and can you identify why you ended up down this path?

I can't tell you how many times in my life I ended up chasing overly-complicated things when all I needed to do what simplify the living hell out of whatever I was doing. I stressed myself out, caused un-needed anxst and all kinds of other self-imposed things - but never realized that all I had to do was simplify.

You are better off doing something simply and doing it better than you are doing something complicated and doing it half-ass.

Where in your life do you just need to simplify?
