The Power of Success Businesses

Email Solo Advertising Advice

To repeat:

There’s nothing wrong with having a lot of money, or being well-known, or having fancy cars and big mansions. Like everything else, these are all just ‘thought fields’ and experience. (<– This is more thoroughly explained in the training PDF that comes with Session 2 of the free Crack Your Egg Introduction Course.)

But so many people get absorbed in pursuing the material ‘dream,’ that they forget about why they’re doing so in the first place.

A friend of mine used to say:

“Most people are so busy trying to make a living, that they forget to make a life.”

Look around, and you’ll see that most of us are ‘human doings’ (or ‘human-not-doings’) more than we are ‘human beings.’ In other words, life lives us, rather than the other way around.

Likewise, there’s nothing wrong with frugality if our preference is to lead a simple(r) life. Nor is there necessarily something amiss in anything that lies in between these two extreme examples.

But getting real forces us to dig deeper into ourselves, and may as such lay bare not only the potential misdirection of our pursuits, but also our deeper, underlying motivations along with it.

And when we do so honestly and genuinely, the crux of the matter reveals itself:

Success

The real problem begins when we allow others (<– people and institutions alike) to impose their (often blindly accepted and equally misdirected) images of ‘success’ on us, and we consider their evaluations the verdict on whether we ‘made it’ in life or not.

So whatever it is you think you want – whether it’s a lot of money, a big mansion, a fancy car, a simple(r) life, a business of your own, making a particular kind of contribution to the world, anything – the real question is:

  • Why do you want it?
  • What’s the underlying motivation?

If it has anything to do with living up to someone else’s expectation or imposed vision for what we should or are supposed to be or do, then what we think is the ‘success’ we want is merely the ‘success’ we think we’re supposed to want.

And as such, it’s not an uncorrupted expression of our own creativity, but rather a statement in reaction to something or someone else.

And here’s the real crux of the issue:
