So I guess you might just have to choose to be a Warrior.
"Out of 100 men who go to battle...
10 shouldn't even be there.
80 are just targets...
9 do all the fighting; and we are blessed to have them. For they make the battle.
Ah, but one. He is a Warrior. And he will bring the others back."
This is from Heraclitus, the great Greek philosopher.
So which are you?
I see so many make commitments and not keep them in today's world.
They think they're going to battle; and they say they're going to battle; but they're not.
They're not willing to do what it takes. They're not willing to pay the price.
It's a documented fact that 90% of the start-up businesses fail in 18 months or less.
And with 543,000 new businesses starting EACH MONTH, 90% is a LOT.
So the amateur may think, "Well, I better just stay safe and on payroll."
Right?
Wrong!
Because currently more payroll jobs are being LOST each month than the number of new businesses being started!
Please read that again and THINK!
Forbes predicts that 50% of the payroll jobs will be completely gone within 3-5 years!
Are you thinking?
I see SO many people easing off the gas and thinking it's time for them to "take it easy" or "take some time off."
Okay. You do that. Take time off. But please don't fool yourself into thinking that you're going to grow a business.
Please don't think you're going to be in the 10% if you want to play that way.
True Leaders and entrepreneurs look forward to getting more done uninterrupted.
Einstein stated, "Mastery takes ALL from a person."
Your business is your own personal pursuit of mastery.
And if you're not up for the battle then please don't enter the arena.
But understand, if you DON'T enter the arena, then you're REALLY putting yourself at tremendous risk.
For the greatest risk in today's world is NO risk.
So I guess you might just have to choose to be a Warrior.
Pay now. Pay later.
Either way, you must pay the price.
What are you going to do?
Time is of the essence.
Tick tock.
