Shake Things Up a Bit or a Lot
You can stay on the train tracks of life or you can take a risk, roll the dice and see where you land. Sometimes you have to be bold and try a new approach and put yourself out there.
You've got to keep creating and innovating and that applies to your life and your relationships as much as it does to your marketing strategies and business.
If you keep hiding and keep playing small with your ideas, you'll eventually get over looked and forgotten. Sometimes, you have to break the cycle you're in, step out and make your own waves. In fact, you'll almost always have to make your own waves.
Don't be afraid to shake things up a bit, do something that gets you the attention you want and helps you to move the game forward!
Every time I've made a move in my life it's been a risk, it's required me to take a gamble and many times it's forced me to eat my own pride. But I'm okay with that now days, because the main thing in life is to make a move and try things.
You won't know if your ideas are any good until you try them and test them. You can look at your mistakes as failures or you can put your white lab coat on and think of them as science experiments. With each experiment, you get a little closer to getting your formula for success right.
So go out there and make some noise, shake things up a bit and get some attention in your industry or sector. You want the big cheque? Then you better be bold enough to make some moves and take a few risks, because no one is paying for boring and uncharismatic.
It's your time now. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise and don't you dare ask for permission to be bold. Give yourself permission. Step up and have a go, you might fall flat on your face or you might win but either way, you made a move and sometimes that's what matters the most.
