You lose because you aim for comfortYou can do more than you know, it’s just you haven’t trained yourself to push past the times where you think you can’t go on. This could be one more push up or one more blog like today! You lose because you aim for comfort when you could aim for that one more thing that pushes you that makes you feel a little uncomfortable that’s where you grow. This is what happened to me today. I had a full-on day delivering coaching training and a ton of admin afterwards. I have been up since 5 am where I went for a run and my brain just wants comfort! I know I had to do the blog and I could have easily blown it off for tomorrow, but I wanted to push myself and that’s why I’m writing this now. I want to push passed my current thought patterns so I can grow and be better. I did get some amazing feedback off the back of my training and that has probably helped, I just feel that I have momentum and I need to write, but my brain wants me to kick back and eat. This is the battle of the mind where you need to take control. Remember you’re in charge! That’s the training and sometimes it’s better where it’s not so polished because it’s in the moment I get it, I am getting to know myself more and more and I know I can give more than I’m currently doing and it feels great, it also gives me great content to write about. I need to be able to speak from experience, so for all you bloggers or content creators you just have to keep going. Yes it may not be the best quality because you feel you can’t go on, but I promise you, you will be proud of what you do and that’s the point. That’s the training and sometimes it’s better where it’s not so polished because it’s in the moment stuff it’s real! Also something is better than nothing! I am pushing and it’s knowing when to push and when to rest. The other advantage is that I get ahead for tomorrow, I am pushing and it’s knowing when to push and when to rest. We just have to realise that by testing those limits by really looking at ourselves and saying I have the resources to do this. let’s try and give it a go. If I was feeling really out of it I wouldn’t do it it just wouldn’t work, but I know I have some energy and I need to use it productively. This is what I want for you. Oh, my food has just arrived so I’m going to stop writing and will be back! “Sweat more in training bleed less in war”I’m back and I was just thinking of something that I heard from Robin Sharma and he quoted the Spartans “Sweat more in training bleed less in war” I just love this because when we push when we press on with our training yes we sweat more and then we can grow more. The reason for this is that life is coming for you and you need to be prepared, you need to be ready. Now I’m not talking about war I’m talking about change. The world around you will change it will keep evolving and if you don’t seek to improve yourself, improve your skills then you will be left behind. You won’t be ready when that change comes. When life comes for you, you need to be ready and now more than ever. If you’re in a career or business AI is making and will make an even bigger impact, so you need to evolve with those changes. The way we work is going to change and the way we do business will keep changing. You have already seen it when the Corona Virus hit a lot of businesses when out of business, it was only those businesses that were willing to adapt to push themselves to try a new way were the ones that survived. So I need to keep adapting, be conscious about the change that’s going on around me and that means being willing to do the work When I look into the future AI will be the thing that continues to change everything, machines just don’t stop so you need to upgrade your skills take the opportunities and throw yourself into your uncomfortable zone to try new things. But those machines will need to be managed, at the moment machines cannot be empathetic so perhaps my role as a coach is safe at least for the moment! Who knows what will happen! So I need to keep adapting, be conscious about the change that’s going on around me and that means being willing to do the work. To do the self-work that’s required to improve my mindset, to make sure that I bleed less in the war which is coming! No, I’m not talking about the Terminator, but it’s a version of it right. I’m passing this to you because I want you to win.So when you think you can’t do anymore, just push yourself that little bit and you will be surprised about what you can accomplish, I just wrote this blog when I’m dead tired! If I can do it you can do it too. Just try it, so when it’s hard that’s when it counts that’s when you are training yourself and I’m learning to love that, I’m passing this to you because I want you to win. This is why I’m giving you this information now so you can get prepared you can do the training now so you’re in shape for when life arrives and asks you the big questions. In that moment you will be able to stand tall and give those answers and that’s when you will thrive and live that life you want to live. So get to work and as always stay inspired.
