I'm finding more and more that the reason in the past my businesses have failed is not because they weren't profitable enough or that they weren't scalable (some of them weren't scalable though, like Freelancing/Consulting), but instead they failed because I worked so hard in the beginning and quickly burnt out. I was interested in making a quick burst of cash rather then creating sustainable practices that would lead me to earning a lot more. I've taken a pretty good break from running any type of business. I have held on to a few clients, but thats it.
I read George Leonard's book Mastery.
I have yet to read Robert Greene's book on Mastery, but it's on my list.
George Leonard writes, "At the heart of it, mastery is practice. Mastery is staying on the path."
George Leonard suggests the following 3 people who most commonly fail on their journey to mastery....
In the past I have very much been the obsessive...
I am currently transitioning back into business and with mastery in mind I am trying to create system so that I will never run out of clients, prospects, and also continually be getting better at my craft. I'm trying to make it so I don't obsessed on the results, but instead just do my work each day and try to be consistently working to get better at closing deals and doing my work.
Would love to see how others react to that image above and also what they think about mastery...
