Ep_108_How_to_be_more_committed
Hey there, funnel builders. Welcome back to the Sell Your Service show. Mike Killen here from sell your service today. I want to talk to you about commitment last week on the podcast, we talked about, you know, defining a niche and rediscovering a niche.
[00:00:15] And I mentioned at the end that I would talk a little bit about commitment because I think when you find a niche, you know, and you find a market you want to go after there's that initial period where you're like, yeah, this is it. This is the market that I'm going to go after. This is the market I'm going to capture. And then you quickly realize it's actually really difficult to find anyone. No one wants to buy.
[00:00:38] No, one's got any money. Everyone's really busy. And you kind of, your, your enthusiasm dies off. So I wanted today to talk about. How to be more committed or at least how to know that you're committed to the right things and how to stick to that commitment. I remember being told, I don't know, uh, probably 10 years ago.
[00:01:02] I can't really remember now when I quit my job as a chef and it was like, ah, you know, young people today that don't have any grit, they don't have any determination, you know, there's no, um, there's no, I suppose sticktuitiveness. Which I never know of is a real word, but anyway, that kind of stuff and the truth is, yeah, I actually couldn't hack being a chef truthfully.
[00:01:21] I wasn't committed to it. And I'm going to talk about what I think the true definition of commitment is because there's a lot of stuff out there. And commitment seems to be, you know, rolled in with a bunch of other kinds of definitions. And I think what people are really looking for is everything from, you know, discipline to motivation.
[00:01:43] To, um, you know, doubling down and betting on yourself. So that's what I want to talk about today because with my Scheffing job, it was really easy for me to quit. And I would argue I did the right thing. I would argue that I did quit, but I also don't doubt that had I had the same mindset that I do today.
[00:02:06] I would have stuck to it and found some kind of success with it there as well. And therein lies. The problem is where do you find success? And if commitment is the path to success, I believe a lot of people are trying to find the right path as opposed to understanding that commitment. Isn't really the path commitment is the choice to walk it in the first place.
[00:02:32] If you struggle with commitment, Or if you want to be more committed, that's what we're going to be talking about on, uh, on this show right now. So I suppose the first question would be then why do you want to be more committed? Why do you want to feel that you want to give yourself more to something or give more of yourself to something?
[00:02:55] Let's take a few different examples here. Commitment to a marriage, really classic one. Uh, we got married last year. And what was funny is a lot of people said, well, you know, you don't really feel that much different. And I disagree. I actually, I made
