Avoid Looking Down

And so it has happened what I did not want to happen…

I have been to a number of business lectures, where a successful entrepreneur heads to the middle of the stage to say how she/he did it.

Quite often, they said they finally managed to speak with the CEO of the (large) company, and then following deals were a result of that one ‘big’ call.

Before the phone call, many of the entrepreneurs  described how it took great hard work including doing what they feared and doing what they hated.

I found many of these lectures to be negative.

I was longing for someone to stand up and say,” It was easy. All we had  to do was…”


And so that is part of my intention, of this blog.  To keep a record of how easy it really is to make a lot of money.

So far, I’m failing though, as I am once again faced with doing things that I rather dislike.  I could pay someone to do what I’m doing but this would cut a big chunk of my profit.

I could quit, and say that it just isn’t worth terrorizing myself (it’s not that bad) to earn a small amount of money, but really I am learning a lot about communication and project management -knowledge that will come in very handy as my learning, experiences, and cash flow builds up.


Now, I tell myself that it will get easier, because it will get easier.  What I learn from what I experience will compound.  The practice of learning, including facing my fears, will/is becoming a daily habit.  Things that were stressful will/are becoming less stressful.

(Sure I got sick for a couple of days, which at this time, caused me to slow down.)  But really, I believe that all anyone has to do is to keep going,  don’t stop, (except for occasional breaks), don’t look down, accept to look for a nice view, and keep climbing up until we reach the top of the mountain we’re climbing.
