Stop Worrying and Be a Success
What’s the single, most destructive distraction on your path to success?
This may surprise you.
It’s not social media. Or the internet. It’s not your phone or your e-mail.
It isn’t music. Or even TV.
It’s worry.
We saw this great photo when we were working on a post about money problems. The author of the note nailed it. Worry keeps you from what’s important.
That’s why it’s the most destructive distraction of them all. Worry is a roadblock on your path to BIGG success.
Worry attracts more of the same
Your mind can work for you or against you. Worry is a distraction that leads to attraction. Unfortunately, it’s won’t attract what you want. Worry will only attract more of what you worry about.
Worry is an actionless activity
Have you ever known someone who only seemed happy when they had something to worry about? How successful were they?
We’ve known good people who were like this. Unfortunately, none of them have ever achieved any significant level of success.
Why do you suppose this is? Could it be that all they did was worry? They never actually did anything to turn their worry on its head.
3 steps to stop worrying
Worrying accomplishes nothing. As a BIGG goal-getter, when you feel yourself start to worry, remember these three steps:
-
Focus on what’s important
BIGG success is life on your own terms. If you’re worrying about something that won’t move you forward on your path to BIGG success, stop!
-
Think solutions, not problems
Here’s something we will guarantee you: If you only think about problems, you’ll get more problems!
Spend the overwhelming majority of your time thinking about solutions. Then you’ll wind up with more solutions.
-
Act!
Thinking alone won’t do you any good. You have to take action. Once you have a solution that you think will work, act immediately!
Your solution may not work. That’s okay. By acting, you’ll gain valuable insight into the situation. Before you know it, you’ll be back on the path to BIGG success!
