The 6 Lies that are Holding back Success
The Six Lies That Are Holding Back SuccessI recently read an extraordinary book “The One THING” by Gary Keller and I wanted to share this with you
Ask yourself how does this relate to my life and my martial arts training
Everything Matters Equally
Anyone who lives by priority understands that some things are just more
important than others. However, many people are fooled into believing
that everything has equal importance. When we realize that everything
does not matter equally, we can debunk the lie that keeps us from
prioritizing our tasks and focusing on what matters the most.
Multitasking
As we become increasingly overwhelmed with information, media and
to-dos, the habit of multitasking becomes more common. Because we’re
working on multiple things at once, we believe we’re being more
productive. The truth is, multitasking slows us down and prevents us
from fully focusing on anything.
A Disciplined Life
Discipline is not interchangeable with success, yet many of us think
that highly disciplined people are the most likely to be successful. The
reality is, we need to train ourselves to be selective and focus the
discipline we do exhibit in our lives in the right way so that good
habits can be created.
Willpower is Always on Will Call
Willpower doesn’t need to be turned on all the time for success to be
realized. In actuality, a constant supply of willpower isn’t even
possible. Because it ebbs and flows, deciding when to use this limited
resource is the key to harnessing the power of willpower.
A Balanced Life
Everyone strives to live a “balanced” life where everything is handled
all at once. Unfortunately, that just isn’t doable. Instead, The ONE Thing
advocates for counterbalancing the various areas of our lives. This
idea is based on putting focus where it is needed the most and letting
other things take a backseat – but not for too long.
Big is Bad
When we think small, success is small. If our goals aren’t big enough,
they end up holding us back. But when we go bigger, think outside the
box and act boldly it virtually guarantees we’ll see success.
This month we are shedding light on the six lies that Gary Keller has
discovered on his path to success. Each post will dive deeper into a
different lie, explore why it holds us back from success, and reveal the
truth that will lead to big results.
