Welcome to the latest episode of The Disruptive Entrepreneur Podcast! On today’s episode, Rob shares strategies you could apply on yourself when you’re in stuck in a slump of not really doing the thing that you know you should be doing.
Rob says most of the times, it involves fear or is deeply-rooted on a significant event that happened to our lives. Yes, these reasons are valid. But what happens if we keep acting this way? Nothing. Or if nothing, we head the wrong path. So, the most important thing to do when we realize we are in this kind of situation: Just do it! Don’t give your time to overthink or to over analyze. You’ll be more than satisfied with what you’ll discover after you do it!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
‘Picking up the phone, holding your breath, and dialling the number.’ This an advice from Rob's mentor. In this way, there is no time to overthink and over analyze what you're about to do.
What if you don't know what to say? If you give yourself too much time to think, to worry, or procrastinate, then you won't do it. It will eventually come to you.
Compartmentalize your fear. Is your fear something that's going to cause your death, bankruptcy or can be very harmful to you? If not, then do it! Just don't do anything risky.
Tweak your strategy and improve it. Change the way of your approach if it will help you to eventually do it. Tweaking should not add to your anxiety, over analysis and worry of what you need to do.
Take small consistent actions. You improve your skills. You get better every time you do it.
For some, consider forced accountability. If you know what you have to do and you're not doing it and you don't know why, take yourself out of the equation. seek help from a coach, a mentor, or anyone.
BEST MOMENTS
“Be careful with what you label yourself. Who says you're an introvert? Don't tell yourself that aren't necessary.”
“In reality, we often make things harder than they are...”
“What you'll discover is: the reality was not what you perceived and not how you imagine it. I say at least 95% of the time it is better. You always learn something. You realize you're stronger than you think.”
