I'd like to share with you a story of a baby Robbin and her family. A few days ago I noticed a small baby robbin that had fallen from it's nest. It still had one eye closed, and could barely move.
I wasn't able to locate the nest, but quickly realized the parents were around, as they attacked anyone and anything that happened to come around (including me).
Over the next few days I watched the bird, but more specifically I was astounded by the actions of his/her parents.
It was a lesson in 100% devotion to a singular goal. The parents' major definite purpose.. their own priority goal was that of the protection of their young.
Any time any other bird would come near one of the parents would come out of nowhere and attack with a quick strike. If the bird was much larger than one Robbin could handle, both parents would attack simultaneously until the threat had retreated.
This morning the baby bird was strong enough to leave the area. The parents succeeded despite all of the odds.
Putting your whole self into a project gives you the best chance of seeing it succeed.
Many, if not most baby birds that have left the nest before the right time don't survive. But I would still bet on that bird and its parents. Every. Single. Time.
If you give your business a half assed attempt you're probably going to fail. If you put your whole self into it and make it your number one priority then you still have a huge chance of failing.. but you have stacked the deck in your favor.
Don't be afraid to fail. Fail more. Fail often. Put your whole self into it and go all in. You just might change your life.
Distractions are everywhere. There are thousands of websites, magazines, television shows, sporting events, and music concerts. All of these things are trying to take you away from your main goal. The promoters and creators of these things want you to be controlled by them.
When you switch on the TV, you are no longer in control. If you aren't where you want to be in life, then you need to unplug yourself from the matrix. This mosaic of never ending distractions is designed to keep you in the same place and in the same state. Until the day that you die.
When you are distracted - you open yourself up to failure.
We watch millionaire sports stars at peak physical condition, while we sit stationary doing nothing. We listen to rap stars talk about how much money they have and their 'baller' lifestyle, and we idolize them. Never mind the fact that most listeners will never make it because they spend more time listening and less time actually doing anything.
The robbin parents succeeded despite every odd stacked against them, because of one very simple, yet powerful principle - they had one goal, which they put before everything else aside and didn't give into distractions.
Try something enough times with as close to 100% effort as you can muster.... and I like your chances. I would bet on you, every single time.
