Diamond Effect - Strategies to Scale Your Service Business as a Sellable Asset
You're not incapable. You're overloaded - MM 255
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
So if you’ve been telling yourself, “I can’t do it,” try this instead:
“I can do one small piece of it.”
Because momentum doesn’t come from doing everything.
Momentum comes from doing the next right step consistently.
And now—let’s do a “one thing” roll call. What are you completing today before you touch anything else? Share it in the comments.
If you've been saying, "I can't do it," I want you to consider this: you're not incapable, you're overloaded. Most of the time, I can't actually means I'm trying to do too much at once. This is what it looks like. You sit down to do the thing, make a phone call, plan your week, send a proposal, follow up, and your brain starts fighting you, so you procrastinate, you scroll, you clean your desk or kitchen. You suddenly need to reorganize your entire Google Drive. And then you start asking yourself, "What's wrong with me? Why can't I just focus?" But nothing is wrong with you. Your brain is just hitting capacity. Recently I said this on one of my coaching calls. Even when I'm doing something I believe in, if I try to do too much in one day, my brain will fight me on that as well. So the goal isn't to become a robot with an endless discipline. The goal is to stop asking your brain to carry a whole week worth of pressure in one desk sitting. So here is what I invite you to do today. Pick one outcome for today, not five, just one. Then chunk it into the smallest next step, like Dial the phone number and make that phone call. Write the first sentence of the email. Take 30 minutes to think about that proposal. Then once you start seeing a real discomfort because you sat at your desk for an hour or more focusing, just take a break. Five minutes can reset your focus and make you much more productive than you trying to sit through and push until you hate your business And don't forget to celebrate your progress. So if you've been telling yourself, "I can't do it," try this instead: "I can do one small piece of it with this step." Because momentum doesn't come from doing everything all at once. Momentum comes from doing the right next step consistently. Now let's do a one thing roll call. What are you completing today before you touch anything else? Share it in the comments
