Reflections of a Young Warrior: Distraction + Focus 11/21/2020

Hello all

I’m writing you this letter as I reflect on this week.

It’s Sunday and there are so many things that I could be doing.

So many things that I can be focusing on

And I find myself getting distracted very easily.

This past week I spent it hard-focused eyes to the grindstone and making 100 phone calls a day. It’s not an easy task and it requires a lot of concentration and focus.

Especially when I am scared of rejection and judgement

As the weekend comes along, I welcome my free flowing creative energy that isn’t disciplined but simply flows.

Lately i’ve had to make decisions on my business that I don’t want to do.

I’ve taken on so many opportunities and I realize the more I put on my plate

The less results I get

So my practice has been simplifying everything

I made this decision to get a job as a Labourer in construction

That way I have money coming in — not on commission but as a guaranteed salary as I build my business

Building a company includes many risks and I need a sense of safety and security to make sure I can survive

Frustrated have I been as I grind hard on my business and can struggle paying my bills.

As humble as it makes me, I have to reset sometimes and start from scratch

I’ve been working on my businesses for almost 4 years now and i’ve learned 3 things

1. Always have a constant stream of money flowing
2. Focusing on ONE thing will bring the most results
3. Having a salary paying job can help cover your business expenses as I grow (this one has been hard for me to swallow)

Getting distracted is so easy, especially when I go on Youtube or I see an AD on Facebook on a successful business owner

I can easily get sucked in

And when I get sucked in, it’s only because I didn’t have enough faith in this business

So as I let my creative juices flow freely, without a place of concentration or guideline — I am here to be me

That focus needs a little bit of distraction

Discipline needs a balance of creativity

A business needs a little bit of money.

Have a great day, thanks for listening.
