OK Dear Readers, you’re focused. You’ve totally adhered to the idea of believing that you will achieve your goals as discussed in the first publication of this series. You’ve worked out a solid plan that aligns your daily actions with your beliefs as this blog prescribed in the second publication. Powered by unwavering newfound confidence, you feel good about yourself.
And then one day you fall on your face hard. Temptations are swarming in all day, every day… For three days in a row! Before you know it, the weekend is here are you feel like crap. You are dreading the beginning of a new day, a new week… You feel so very weak and unsure about life in general. What are you going to do, Dear readers? Are you considering quitting altogether? This blog certainly hopes not, Dear Readers!
Consequently, the third Mindset for SUCCESS to adopt is: NEVER GIVE UP, KEEP AT IT.
Yes, you know it, the JMS team knows it, your family knows… But it bears repeating… When things are rough, frustrating, downright discouraging: don’t give up and keep moving forward! Why you may ask? Because efforts you have made intermittently haphazardly will not bring you closer to your goals, no matter how great they may be. It won’t!
And anyone who tells you otherwise Dear Readers is lying to you and should be dropped from your inner circle immediately… That is not a trusted source of knowledge. And you know what Dear Readers? The Branding24Seven community is your fountain of inspiration as schedules, priorities, and responsibilities beat you senselessly Dear Readers.
For this reason, this blog makes sure to avoid wasting your time with pointless click baits. This blog will always give you nothing but the stone-cold truth so that you have the armor to face the world and its ruthless actors! There is no overnight miracle. To that point, Dear Readers, the only way to guarantee success is to be relentless in the pursuit of your goals and never give up.
The other unsexy truth is that setbacks will always exist and cannot be avoided, Dear Readers. Therefore, the solution has nothing to do with the difficulties themselves. In fact, the solution has everything to do with your approach to roadblocks, Dear Readers.
So, rather than handling them with resistance, welcome them with the most positive outlook by repeating: “this setback is here to teach me perseverance and will help me reach my goal as long as I show up and keep at it”. In time, you will make some progress even if it feels as if you are moving through molasses with ankle weights to boot!
As always, the purpose of this series is to give you valuable hacks habits to cultivate the perseverance you need to see your goals come to fruition Dear Readers in 2020 and beyond:
- Be mindful of what you consume every day. There are so many podcasts out there for you to consume! Why not listen to them when doing mundane activities such as cooking, cleaning the bathroom, or vacuuming the living room instead of having the TV in the background. It is incredibly reassuring to hear how others have learned to keep pushing forward, even amid harrowing obstacles.
- Find your tribe! Human beings are not meant to walk alone Dear Readers! We are meant to be live in communities and not reclusively on islands. That’s how we grow, mature, and ultimately become the best versions of ourselves. So, go ahead and find like-minded people on Facebook, at your local Coffee shop, or here of course at the Branding24Seven community. Your tribe will always root for your success while providing valuable support as you are likely to face momentous impasses and insignificant roadblocks. Furthermore, your tribe is an extremely powerful conduit that channels the energy necessary to combat the epidemy of loneliness we all hear about on YouTube. That’s probably why so many YouTubers have created videos about the many ways to learn to be more comfortable alone!
