how to BANISH frustration from your life
Frustration is the child of stagnation.
We are most alive when we are making progress [even micro-progress] in the direction of ideals that excite us.
Our spirits take flight when we stand steadfast along the path of the mighty mission and heroic ideals that call out the finest within us.
And when we exercise our native creativity to make things that help others, push our craft to the jagged edges of its farthest limits and lean into what frightens us.
It’s an interesting time we live in...
...a pandemic ravages lives, businesses and economies.
...social injustices that have been going on for far too long are causing deep upheaval as we are weary of seeing our brothers and sisters mistreated.
...social media addicts us, providing an escape from a tumultuous reality.
...uncertainty and volatility overwhelms many of us.
And yet there is a beautiful solution to all of this...
...retreat from the world (at least more often) and find that place of creativity, courage and serenity that sits at the root of every human soul. [I’ve been spending more time in silence, prayer and contemplation than ever before].
...reorder your days to clear out complexity, remove toxic negativity and release all mediocrity. You become your ecosystem. Purify your environment and your positivity and performance will rise. I’m writing a lot about this in my new book which is now on round #8 of refining. I’m doing my best to get it to you as soon as I can.
...remove the resistance to standing on the fires of the discomfort that is—in truth—nothing more than your growth coming to get you.
Life’s just too short to get caught up in the frustration of living each day in the same way—with no real creative fire, personal inspiration and authentic productivity.
Please don’t live the same week five thousand times and call it a life.
Three quick suggestions for you:
1. Learn my new Trinity of Vitality Model to multiply your energy and stamina. For now, I’ll simply suggest that you explore intermittent fasting, become a sleep expert so you recover better, delete sugar from your diet and get serious about home cooking [so you’re not polluting your body with processed goods]. Food is medicine. Your nutrition and hydration affect your energy, mood and productivity. So dial it in well.
2. Do a Personal Progress Inventory where you list all the ways you’ve advanced over the past 7 months of 2020, from your craft and any business wins to the human growth you’ve earned. This will create confidence as well as momentum. Even in the upheaval that is this year, you can find a ton of tiny triumphs to celebrate. And the more you actively cherish your progress, the more you’ll turn adversity into precious opportunity.
3. Turn off all notifications on your phone as the distraction and interruption they generate is costing you a fortune. I also recommend that you turn off your phone at 8PM each night and ease into an excellent pre-sleep routine. And read the news just once a week. Its job is to scare and addict you versus to introduce you to all the good things happening. And unfolding.
It looks like the second waves and “re-lockdowns” will happen for a while.
All the closures will likely create The Mother of All Recessions. Or what some economists are calling The Greater Depression.
I get that it’s easy to worry and fret about the future.
Yet I must enthusiastically share that what makes us human is our ability to invent. And to endure. And to overcome.
I pray you will leverage this season to reaccess the bigness, honour, kindness and strength that I know is you at your best.
It’s the best time I’ve ever known to build your most exceptional you. And to upgrade your skills. And to lead your field.
This is a fine stage to x10 your dedication to personal mastery. And to lean out expenses. And to reorder your priorities. And to build an even better business. That moves quicker and serves more people.
I am bullish on the future. I am on fire to help you make this surprising time the greatest time of your life (yet). And I am here to encourage your ideals.
And if you REALLY wish to make this period the period that you experience the most glorious transformation of your entire lifetime... massively accelerating your business success as you multiply your influence, performance and service to society [while creating a world-class lifestyle that wows] then keep reading as I’ve done something super special for you...
...I’ve spent three deep months reviewing the “game charts”, mental models, morning routines, prosperity frameworks and lifestyle elevation processes that I’ve taught to the billionaires and sports legends I’ve mentored for over 24 years.
...I then handcrafted the best information into a truly revolutionary online membership course for empire-builders and world-changers.
...In other words, I’ve decided to share my entire playbook that I’d previously only offered to my ultra-successful clients, so that you will x25 the rest of your pro and private life.
...I named this absolutely world-class new online course The Top 5% Business Accelerator. And it’s the finest program I’ve ever made available—specifically designed for self-transformation and business optimization amid volatile conditions.
My team has decided to make a limited amount of memberships available by application only given the exclusive nature of this digital academy for entrepreneurs. Get the details here.
DISCLAIMER: If you’re not ready to learn, grow while others contract, do some work and get truly amazing results during this global crisis, The Top 5% Business Accelerator is NOT for you. Save your money. Please.
...And yet, if you’re a serious entrepreneur who understands the extraordinary value of transformational learning and premium education as a means to remake yourself into a wiser, stronger, faster and more agile performer while significantly growing your business, then this digital program will be life-changing for you.
So do what all those in the Top 5% do and release all excuses, get off the fence and apply for your membership into one of the world’s finest online programs to maximize your performance and grow your business during turbulent times.

4 年Robin Sharma really helpful tips. To conquer frustration, one must remain intensely focused on the outcome, and not on the obstacles. Once in a while we are all hit by a mental block. We must know when to dive into our work and when to retreat and take a break.
