Get and Stay in the Game!
Get In the Game and Stay In the GameAs a personal success coach and mentor to entrepreneurs from all walks of life, I have had the privilege of spending thousands of hours with clients who are just getting started in free enterprise as well as those who have been in numerous entrepreneurial endeavors.I have coached people who have achieved no money, people who have achieved millions, people who have gone from zero to hero and people who have struggled to just"make ends meet" yet refuse to go back to the j-o-b and Corporate America.I have coached professional athletes, actresses, movie producers, and stay-at-home moms. I have a very diverse client base, but one situation all of these people have in common is that they have had to"GIG" -- get in the game -- in order to begin realizing success as an entrepreneur.Getting in the game means making a decision that you will not settle for living an average life in someone else’s dream because you are going to create an exceptional life by living your own dreams.Most people have the greatest challenge making a decision. And if you are going to succeed as an entrepreneur, you will be required to make multiple decisions every day.I believe that most people avoid making decisions because they do not want to be held responsible for the resulting situation. Most people associate responsibility with a negative outcome, but in reality claiming responsibility lead to both positive and empowering results.Take a Chance and ParticipateIn many of my one-day workshops I play a game with money where I stand on the edge of the stage holding up a one hundred-dollar bill and ask,"Who is responsible for this?" At every event, the first reaction of my entire audience is to freeze. Everyone looks at each other, waiting for someone to react, wondering what to do next.I repeat the question until a few people begin to say"I am." I nod my head and keep repeating the question. Eventually, one person finds some courage and begins to move toward the stage, which then allows about four other people to come to action.Suddenly, all four are racing toward me, each more anxious than the others to claim responsibility. In the end, one person reaches me first, takes the"C-note" from my hand and claims responsibility. The result is the easiest hundred dollars ever achieved in the five-second journey from chair to stage.My point here is that making decisions will require you to get comfortable with the idea of being responsible for both the desirable and less-desirable outcomes your decisions create.Realize that your decisions do not have to be perfect and that in five years you will probably look back at many of the decisions you make today thinking if I knew then what I know now I would have decided differently. This is true for all of us, no matter our vocation.What matters to you now, as you begin to claim your destiny and take back control of your present, is that you decide to get in the game and to make the best decisions you are capable of, knowing that you have many great lessons ahead of you and that you are on your way to manifesting your vision.Participation Makes a DifferenceGetting in the game means committing to learning a new set of life skills that will allow you to hone your craft so that you can get paid what the free market bears for the value and service you bring to the marketplace.It means becoming comfortable with the knowledge that success is a process and having the courage, the guts, the intestinal fortitude to dive into that process each day, leading with your heart, knowing that the lessons you learn will prove invaluable in a future situation.Each day you have an opportunity to grow from the people you meet, situations you encounter, lessons you learn, challenges you turn into triumphs, and risks that you take to earn the rewards that you seek. The game of free enterprise and entrepreneurship is really the game of your life, and the question is:"Are you ready to play?"Are you ready to start? When the whistle blows, will you be ready to take off from the starting line, or will you be sitting on the bench tying your shoes? Are you ready to get in the game of free enterprise?If so, you are playing for high stakes– your freedom, your dreams, and your life on your terms. Getting in the game means committing to making short-term sacrifices to achieve long-term goals, it means learning to be consistent and diligent, and it means being rewarded for your efforts based on what you decide your time and energy isworth instead of what someone else is willing to pay you to complete a task on a job.Getting in the game means allowing yourself to have dreams and visions of what your future will hold and then using your creativity to turn your ideas into results that will allow you to manifest your dreams.Many people say,"But what if I am not creative?" Each and every person has creativity inside of them. Each and every child used crayons, pencils, and markers to make pictures at some point in their childhood, and perhaps you are not a great artist, but you have creativity!What happens to most people in our society is that at some point during their childhood they are criticized by a teacher, a parent, or a peer and they end up stuffing their creative impulses down inside in an effort to avoid humiliation.Your creativity is your uniqueness, it is what makes you different than everyone else, it is intrinsic to you - no one else will ever be able to duplicate it, and this is the value you bring to the marketplace. This is the value that if you have the guts to reveal, I guarantee you will find a market for. The process here is to take your vision, your idea, what you can see in your"mind's eye" and create a tangible product or service that will allow you to receive results in exchange.I say results because not everyone is in the game for money, although on my journey I have found that while"love makes the world go 'round", money pays for the trip. Whatever results you are seeking on your journey, the game is taking your ideas and creating a product or service that becomes valuable to the marketplace, and from there it is an experiment to see what value the free market will bear in exchange.Stay in the GameOnce you have made the decision to get in the game you will find that to"SIG" -- stay in the game -- will require a different set of habits than those that serve you in a typical job. Remember, this is the game of your life! Begin creating million dollar habits and you will greatly increase your odds of succeeding!Begin studying millionaires to see what they do with their time. You will find that almost every millionaire you meet has developed great habits to enhance the skills that have allowed them to achieve the level of success that they are achieving.Entrepreneurship will require you to learn a whole new set of life skills because in this industry you get paid for your results, not for your time.We as a society are conditioned to be hourly employees, and are generally conditioned to create very few results in a short period of time on a job because we get paid for the time we work, not the results we produce. Free enterprise works in exactly the opposite way.The free market will often pay you more for an idea or result that you create in an instant than for a project that you sweat and toil over and brainstorm and plan and perfect and get ready to do. Having said this, I will also tell you from my own personal experience that I have yet to meet an exceptional entrepreneur who has not developed a routine to focus the direction of their ideas and enterprise.Successful entrepreneurs develop simple, effective routines that they are able to commit to repeating day in and day out over a long enough period of time to begin to experience quantum returns on their continual efforts.YOU DESERVE TO HAVE IT ALL!Goodluck
