PT 1: Control what's Controllable

Many of us are looking for a breakthrough but we don’t know the specific details of what it is. How does this get in our way of actually getting that breakthrough? How do you make your goals and dreams more attainable? On this episode, we talk about the power of grabbing control of your life and how that affects your outcomes.

Takeaways

When a goal is easy to say it’s also very easy to not accomplish it.

Our greatest fears come from things we feel we cannot control.

When you take control, external factors will affect you a lot less.

At the start of the show, we talked about how people are usually looking for a breakthrough without actually knowing what it is. Next, we talked about why we should view ups and downs as a normal part of the road to success, and the importance of making a goal attainable in your mind. Towards the end, we shared why it’s so powerful to start controlling your own success, and your own reactions.

We also spoke about

• Why it’s difficult for us to put what we want into words
• Why nothing is going to change until you get disturbed
• Why focusing on your vision takes the fear away

If you don’t feel like you’re in control, you’re not going to like your business because your fears are in the way. Whatever you want to achieve and whatever legacy you’re going to leave behind is yours to control, so why not take control of your emotions, your work, and your outcomes? When you take control, you lose the fear and you’ll no longer be vague about what you want to accomplish. Remember, nothing is going to change until you get disturbed by where you are right now.
