Add a first choice
Jeff Altman, Big Game Hunter
Although many people will be surprised to read this article, if there is one thing I have over time, it is that if there is a chance to procrastinate, I will take it on something important. My first book took 15 years to write. I applied for tax extensions. I arrived on time, but at the last minute, a lot of things.
I’ve been working on a model to change my behavior and desires. It includes Simon Sinek’s groundbreaking questions and some ideas that combine over time. I don’t think this model is useful unless you’re working on something important to you. Otherwise, it feels like another item on the list you want to do.
It will start with the courage to change and be willing to pay the price to make the change. After all, if it’s easy to do, you’ll already do it. Obviously, something is holding you back, and some emotional booing will interfere with you taking the necessary steps.
Ah! You think you can beat this with a card that “I don’t have time”. That is one of the classic lies we tell ourselves. After all, if I told you that when you finish your project or do the job you want, I would give you a check of $25 million and almost everyone would find the time. We just make choices that are victims of our fear or inertia.
This is what I want you to do:
Step 1. Answer this question: What do you want to be?
I don’t care what you want to do. I want you to think about what you want to be. If you can remember how to dream again, “do” will follow.
Step 2. Sinek’s big problem. . . Why?
Why do you really want to do this? It’s important to write my first book because I want to overcome my fear of writing a book and being regarded as a writer. Why do you want to do it? What is this important to you?
If you, like most people, once you start thinking about why you are procrastinating, you will dabble in the whole effort into fear booing, sitting on your shoulders and sitting in your ears. Lessons we must say
Sometimes, don’t use whips
Step 3. This week some measures are taken to move the needle.
Do something to move in the direction you desire. If necessary, put it in your calendar. It can be 5 minutes or 30 minutes or 2 hours. Just do something. The ideal way is to do something every day. Think about it. If you write 30 minutes a day, you will invest 182 hours a year to write a book. If you write for an hour, it’s equivalent to investing in your book, movie or fitness system for 2 and a half weeks.
Step 4. Check your performance.
I want you to review it to understand how you work and to review it without any judgment or accountability. Do you do what you intend to do or live your life the way you sometimes do. What can you do? Did Boogman win this week? What strategies can you use to accomplish what you want to do instead of succumbing to Boogeyman, it’s fear.
I point out that you will have your review without “accountability”. Accountability is weaponized by schools. Business becomes something that feels like punishment.
“You didn’t finish your assignment; you lost 50% of your grade on day 1. There are 50% left on day 2 and got zero on day 3.” Ouch!
You did not complete the items we collected on time or within your budget (without any input). Your salary increases, reviews, and perhaps even your job is threatened by failure. That’s the company version of accountability.
Remove accountability from your personal vocabulary. It feels like punishment because you’ve been trained to think of it as sitting in a police area with a gleaming light experiencing the Inquisition at the trial.
Just do a review and see how you performed and what you learned from it. Do this when you do well, when you do not do well. You are learning something in both cases.
repeat.
I assure you an optional step in the process, but for most adults, this is probably the hardest step. That’s why I asked you to consider it optional
Step 5. See if you can have some fun while you are doing the event (or introduce the spirit of the game to the event).
From the time we entered the school system, “fun” was already in trouble. “It’s serious! It will account for 50% of your grades! It will affect your ability (go to college/do your job/stay your job/avoid being fired).
I don’t know what this is going on for you, but when I was a kid, I used to laugh more and feel good before being beaten by the “evil twins” (school and work). I have done a lot of things and learned a lot of things. Try having fun or having fun every week.
However, it starts with courage. . . Courage changes. Courage will require you to stay true to your true nature and serve the world by sharing your true talents and talents, truly explain who you are, share your heart and be effective.
If you work hard to do this, hire a coach to help you.
Life is not a long time. In this life, your time has run out. Let’s get on the stage.
