High achiever, if you are stuck with your project, read this:

Being stuck, SUCKS. Doesn't matter what exactly your business goal is. You have a picture in your head of your vision. And the reality, for some reason, is different.

You were planning to crush it and be free, but still:

  • No sales

  • No followers

  • No money & freedom

And there is so much advice around you... The internet is flooded with:

  • Tips

  • Tricks

  • Strategies

If you would watch and implement all of them, it would take you a decade.

But you want to be sure that the free ideas are valid. So, you start investing money in cohorts, courses, and books.

God forgive me... When I was in a "stuck mode". Together with @GrammarHippy, we were buying Clickbank affiliate courses…

Wasting our time on quick results schemes and some shady softwares. We had big hopes and tiny results. We tried any business strategy that you could imagine. From affiliate marketing and Shopify dropshipping to direct pocket-heater that no one needed.

And you know what we got from that? Nothing.

Just a big disappointment. And another lesson. And you know how many lessons like that we had? Honestly, I stopped counting... I have bedtime stories for 1 year ahead for my future kids.

The bottom line is it took us years to make money online and get out of being broke and stuck.

We were lucky. We were young with no obligations like:

  • Kids

  • Depts

  • Expensive relationships

And we had each other until we figured out our way.

The basics of creating a successful project haven't changed so much in the last 10 years. What changed is the amount of opportunities to do it faster. But also the amount of evil distractions that slow you down.

Today...

Kids are watching endless, no-sense TikTok videos instead of creating their dreams.

Unfortunately, without being with you at the coaching session. I don't know why you are stuck… What I do know: If you have a rooftop and food on a table, and you have enough money to pay your bills.

You can be in the stuck mode stage forever because your life is comfortable.

It's so easy to get distracted from your goals in that place.

"Cheap dopamine" is everywhere.

  • Social networks

  • Movies, video games

  • Parties that you need 2 days to heal from

So tell me...

How exactly are you supposed to succeed? When everything around you is pushing you down? Including you. Deep inside, you know the answer. You should:

  • Test more & fail fast

  • Read, write & create more

So, if you know, why are you still at the same place? Why are you again looking for a new strategy, cohort, or course when you already know the answer?

2 reasons: 

  1. You have a "blind spot" & you don't see it.

  2. You have a hidden fear that hides behind your excuses.

Let me explain... It's not easy to see your "blind spot" in your:

  • Character

  • Daily actions

  • Way of thinking

This means if you are working on a project for a long time and you don't see results. There is a hidden reason that you don't see.

My suggestion: SEEK a new way of thinking from a coach. During my journey, I met many coaches that pushed me to see my "blind spots".

You need to understand...

We all have different wired brains. We see reality with different "operating systems". In most cases, your blind spots are covering your biggest fears. Fears that you are avoiding dealing with.

We all have them. And dealing with that stuff isn't going to be comfortable. This is why it's so easy to avoid that and get a logical reason why your project isn't working.

But your logical reason isn't the truth.

It's your protective mechanism from a change. And before, you will see a change in your project. A genuine change must happen INSIDE of YOU.

Take care,

Alex
