Next book on my reading agenda. This guy, a former 10 year Navy Seal, teaches us how to conquer fear. Because, as he says himself, without the knowledge of how to conquer fear it matters not what you have learned or what tools you use. You will still chicken out when it is time to do the magic. That is why the majority of people never make money in business. Their "bad luck" is more a question of being scared to death.
We have all seen all of these people asking us what they should do, if this or that is the way to do stuff etc. Those are good questions, but if they are still "chickens", they will have no use for that kind of knowledge anyway. I know a lot myself, but the question is: How much of it am I actually ready to apply in real life? That is the million dollar question. That is the ultimate test.
Personally, I think I have what it takes to succeed because I am willing to do "nutty" things and embarrassing things to reach my goals. You have to see it as a game and then go ahead. That is the way I conquer my fear. I play a game and that works wonders. Whatever works, works.
One example: On my older sisters wedding I did karaoke. The thing is, I hate standing on stage. Not my thing at all. But I did and pretended, really pretended, I was Justin Timberlake. Worked wonders. Whatever works, works.
