5 Ways To Prove The Naysayers Wrong And Do Something Remarkable

Published

Prove the NaySayers Wrong

Do you want to do something remarkable in your life, but you’re surrounded by naysayers?

When I decided to quit my 9-5 job, I unleashed a storm of negativity.

–>If starting a business would be that simple, everybody would do it!

–>You will fail! There is already too much competition in your niche!

–> “That’s a ridiculous idea! Why don’t you keep working here? You’ve invested so much, you can become a director in a couple of years!”

None of the arguments were legit. I had a rock solid plan. Nevertheless, I started to believe what others were telling me. I started to worry about being a miserable failure.

Getting back on track taught me an invaluable lesson: even obvious nonsense can feed doubt and discouragement, if you only hear it often enough.

 

In order to do something remarkable, you have to protect yourself from all negativity. Here’s how I did it!

 

1. Stop Talking About Your Plan

Your means of protection against negativity is silence. If you don’t talk about your plan, nobody can discourage you with negative feedback.

It’s your free choice to keep silence about your plan. You’re not obligated to talk with anybody about your life.

Some naysayers might feel offended, but that’s none of your business. You’re not responsible for the feelings of a negative person. Your sole responsibility is to protect yourself.

Therefore, never talk about your mission with small-minded people. If you need advice, go talk to an expert. An expert is a person you has already done what you’re planning to do.

The advice of an expert is invaluable. It can protect you from making mistakes and shortcut your way by months or even years.

 

2. Build A Kick-Ass Team

The easiest way to do something new is to hang out with people who are already doing it. If you’re surrounded by greatness, your own standards and entitlement will grow.

–> If everybody around you owns a business, you’ll start to do the same

–> If everybody around you hits the gym, you’ll start to do the same

–> If everybody around you creates art, you’ll start to do the same

Build yourself a team that inspires and challenges you. Finding the right teammates is not as hard as it might sound.

Behave like your ideal teammate, and you will attract the right people. Therefore: be positive, never complain, pursue your goals, show genius interest, and help others. In two words: offer value.

Of course you won’t build a kick-ass team overnight. It will take you months or even years. But don’t worry! You can emulate a strong team in the mean time.

The greatest thoughts and achievements of mankind are only a couple of clicks away. Read books and blogs about your topic. Watch videos. Skype with experts. Immerse yourself deep. Eat, breath and sleep your topic.

3. Fight Your Inner Naysayer

Have you ever wondered why it’s so hard to do something remarkable? The answer is pretty simple: your brain is not playing in your team.

Your brain does not care about greatness. All your brain wants is to safe energy and keep you stable.

Whenever you want to take your life to the next level, your brain comes up with some sneaky excuses.

–> “Let’s wait for tomorrow…”

–> “Let’s do this other task first…”

–> “This is not for me…”

Your excuses will be your life long opponent. You’ll never be free of them. But you can learn to ignore them and take action anyway. Do the opposite of a small excuse today and grow further from there.

–> Hit the gym in spite of being tired

–> Make a cold-call in spite of fearing rejection

–> Start your own business in spite of having self-doubts

Train your ability every single day. With time you will build a great momentum. When it’s time to do something remarkable, you only have to repeat what you`re doing on any given day.

 

4. Have A Rock Solid “Why”

Doing the opposite of your excuses will be a tough challenge. It will be a daily fight against your inner weakness.

You need something that is stronger than your excuses; something that enables you to take action.

You need a rock solid “why”.

Realize why your mission is so important for you? What is your motivation? What are you willing to sacrifice?

Don’t bother with any half-baked attempts. Go for the things that you want 100%, don’t go for anything else.

 

5. Be Willing To Fail

The conditions to do something remarkable will never be perfect. There will be always some obstacles in your way.

If you wait for the perfect moment, you will wait for the rest of your life.

I understand that starting out is frightening. Starting out scared me to death. But I did it anyway. What should I say? It was one big struggle.

I failed tons of things that were new for me. I made mistake over mistake.

Nevertheless: I’m still alive, I’m still learning, I’m still happy, and I’m still moving forward.

Every successful person I know fails at least once in a while. They try new things, they fail miserable, they learn from it, and they do it better the next time.

Their willingness to fail separates them from the average Joe.

 

What’s with you my friend? Are you willing to fail?

How to Break the Cycles of Mediocrity and Manifest Your Greatness

There is no greatness without becoming and there is no becoming with authenticity

Published

In just a few weeks, we will be wrapping up 2023. Can you believe it? This year has been absolutely incredible for me.

I have seen amazing doors opened, new relationships formed and I am seeing dreams realized in my life. While this seems like the hallmarks of a great year, this has also been the most challenging year of my life. With all of the change happening in my life, I have been forced out of my comfort zone and challenged to grow in every area of my life.

I can truly say that I have made the most of my moments this year and I have used everything as a catalyst for maximizing my greatest potential.

As a revolutionary leader, I have the pleasure of consulting and advising leaders around the world to fulfill purpose, realize their greatest potential and make an impact.

I want to share some insights with you that will help you to break cycles of mediocrity and manifest your greatness

Everything legal must come through the matrix

I am sure that some of you are wondering why I am using the term matrix. However, what you have to understand is that I am trying to make a highly complex spiritual principle practical to understand.

Regardless of your spiritual beliefs, every life has an origin and I believe that origin is divine and begins with eternity. You are birthed from eternity and into time to fulfill a unique purpose and assignment in your lifetime and generation.

The matrix is simply the portal or vehicle that brings something out of the invisible realm and into tangible form. The problem with much of the teaching today is that it excludes the matrix. We are told to believe that success is instantaneous and overnight.

Nobody talks about how a dream progresses through stages beginning with visualization and ultimately culminating in manifestation. Without a matrix or portal then everything that you attempt to birth and build will be illegal.

The matrix not only makes you legal but it gives you the authority and power to function as the greatest expression of who you were created to be. 

Every matrix has an incubation process

While many people admire and respect me today, I remember a time when nobody knew who I was or the significance of my message. How did I get to where I am today? I got here through an incubation process.

In other words, everything that has been destined for your life is incubating and awaiting a set time of manifestation. The problem is that most people live their entire lives idle and never initiate the incubation process.

What do I meany by that? Most people are living reckless and very few people are living intentionally. I am amazed at the number of people I have conversations with that have no vision, goals or strategies for their lives. They show great promise and they have undeniable potential.

However, without development they will die with their dreams still in them.

Everything that has been destined for your life must be incubated and converted to become realities born to time. 

“Visualize this thing that you want, see it, feel it, believe in it. Make your mental blueprint and begin to build.” – Robert Collier

You must give expression to that which is not yet born to time

When you think about a matrix or a prophetic incubation process, you have to understand that potential is often unrealized and untapped. In other words, your potential is in raw form and your potential cannot serve you as long as it is untapped.

The thing that makes me valuable is that I have the ability to convert potential into power. I have done it in my own life and I have empowered leaders around the world to do the same. How do you convert potential into power?

First, it is important to note that you have to perceive potential. If you cannot perceive your potential then you can never cultivate your potential. In addition, you must take the time to cultivate your potential. We often get excited about our capabilities; however, we never expand our capacity in order to realize our greatest potential.

In other words, the strength of your potential is only discovered through your willingness to stretch. The more we are challenged the more we are empowered to expand our capacity for greatness. Most of all, you must begin to express your potential. The expression of potential is different for every person.

For example, the expression of my potential is best demonstrated through the thoughts, ideas, products, services, books, etc.

For another person the expression of potential may look like a screenplay, artwork, sports, scientific discoveries, medical breakthroughs, etc.

Regardless of the form of expression, I know that you will live empty and unfulfilled until you make the decision to express your potential. The expression of your potential gives voice to your dreams, life to your vision, significance to your moments and activates your true power.

You must manifest your greatness

As a revolutionary thinker and leader, my work has impacted people around the world. I am grateful that my life is a source of empowerment to so many people. However, before anyone could ever benefit from my life, I had to make a non-negotiable decision to become who I was born to be.

I wish I could tell you that this journey is easy and that you will get there overnight. However, in a world that celebrates us for doing we are often criticized for being. As a result, I wasted a lot of time trying to be who other people wanted me to be instead of being who I was born to be.

There is no greatness without becoming and there is no becoming with authenticity. It is through our bravery to be vulnerable that we ultimately manifest our greatness. We do not bless the world by being a duplicate. We bless the world when we honor our difference. When you honor your difference you honor your potential.

Ultimately, your difference is how you manifest your greatness.

When you present anything but your authentic self to the world, you are playing small and you are robbing the world of your significance. Manifesting your greatness requires you to master your gifts.
