How to stop making excuses in life and in business

99% of people are average. But the average is not a bad word; it's just a common word. The synonym of average is to be ok. You are in the middle when you are ok, so why change? People paralyze here; they do not change because the idea of being in a worse scenario than your current one is too much to take in.?

Now an excuse is a polite way of saying no and a smart way of hiding your fears. You make an excuse when you don't know how to make something.

When that thing moves you out of your comfort zone

When you have to admit vulnerability?

The only way in which people change is when change is their only choice. And usually, people have choices; those choices are excuses.?

Now the only way in which you will stop making excuses is when change is necessary when you learn to put limits, and you have realized you've been moving in circles in patterns.?

What do I mean by this?

You are a business owner, you've been doing business for more than 15 years, you like routine because it distracts you, and you are addicted to problems because they give you that adrenaline rush you crave.?

You like to micromanage because it makes you feel important and needed.?

Suddenly someone walks in your door and says, hey, I'm an expert in the field and I can help you improve. I can make you richer and make you work less.

Here is the reality of this scenario:?

• First: you like your reality; it's the only one you know
• Second: you believe that change means new problems and challenges, and you know how to deal with the current ones; you don't want to be under control.
• Third: what is richer? Yeah, to make 100k a month or month sounds nice, but deep down, you don't believe that to be a reality for you.?

So the result of this equation is that consultation will not work.

Then life throws low balls at your business like, covid, economy or you have to move to another place. In terms of health, you are tired, fatter, or have a health problem.?

Now you have to change; at least life is giving you warnings to change… but still, you do not change. You make excuses.?

Why? Because you don't know another way, because you don't want to ask for help, because just thinking about diet, exercise, or a new routine is too overwhelming. You stop growing.

How can someone change? And stop making excuses?

By feeling like they are not changing, make small improvements and have a reward after them, by taking baby steps.?

By making this new way the only way. You either change or die.?

Look at a baby. Poor baby, they must learn how to eat, go to the bathroom and walk all before being 3. Why do they do it? Why can't they just wear diapers forever? Because they do one thing at a time because it comes to a point in which walking is their only choice. Because moms hug them every time, they fail.?

Just to recap, you must be aware you are making excuses when it comes to doing something new. And we need to understand the reason for the excuse. Then ask why? Why are we afraid of it??

Then try to make small baby steps every day.?
