Loy Machedo's 21 Principles Of Success - Number 10

Loy Machedo's 21 Principles Of Success - Number 10



STOP   BULSHITTING – WITH YOURSELF

We tend to have a habit of trying to convince ourselves

Many possible realities

For example trying to get into the 4am 7kms running session

When you know for a fact, you will give within 3 days

Trying a new online course

when you know you will lose interest within the 3rd week

Starting to read a book –

when you know you will never complete it beyond the 3rd chapter

So how do you actually bullshit yourself here?

You   Consider yourself super special or super lucky or super dedicated

That’s how.

We all like to believe we are more lucky than most

Which is why we purchase the lottery ticket

We all like to believe we will succeed where others have failed

Which is why we open up new businesses

We all like to believe that we will live a long life and get to see our grandchildren

Which is why we spend more time in the office than at home

In all the above cases – the fact of the matter is simple.

We like to believe – whatever it is we like to believe

And the human mind is capable of believing this crap.

So sometimes it is important to stop –

take a stock of all the belief systems we have

All the statements and sentences we give ourselves

And start being   real.

And that take a lot of   Maturity.

If you are fat and ugly – Stop making it look beautiful

If you stupid – well that is what you are

If you are a failure (for now) – admit that

If you are an addict – you need to spill the beans

Sometimes facing facts is what we need before changing anything else.

So STOP   BELIEVING YOUR   BULLSHIT.
