I love proverbs and old sayings.
For short little phrases they can pack a lot of power. Unless… They’re flawed.
Jim Rohn was the first person I ever heard talk about this.
There’s tons of old sayings that are floating around in our heads that are incorrect. Like, so incorrect they’re bad. Like, if they manifested and crawled up to us, you’d probably try to whack them with a hammer.
One old saying Jim Rohn picked on was, “ignorance is bliss”.
Ignorance is NOT bliss…
Ignorance is poverty, ill health, and shitty credit. To be ignorant about something important will give you feelings FAR from bliss.
Growing up I remember, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me.” This one may help with bullying on the playground but the older you get it’s about as useful as trying to run your car off toothpaste.
Why?
Because what someone else tells you means nothing. What YOU tell YOU means EVERYTHING. What you tell you, WILL break you.
It affects your relationships.
It affects your self esteem.
And it affects your ability to grow your biz and live your best life.
This is one of the big hurdles I had to get past and I’m going to show you how you can do it too.
This week I’ll be unveiling my five week boot camp. We’re going to deep on the spiritual and practical things I did to grow my businesses over the last 18 years and bounce back after 2020.
Stay tuned!
