Yo!
This is a reminder that there will be days when you will struggle on your Entrepreneurial journey.
You know what I mean:
There will be days when things don’t come as easy as you expected…even with things you are good at.
There are days where you make some really dumb, bone-headed mistakes.
Then, there will be days where you run into a new problem, and you wont know how to solve it.
These things happen!
But what should you do? Should you give up (hell no!) Should you try bitch and complain? I guess you could, but it wont help.
What I have learned in during these times is to embrace the suck.
That just means that you understand that there will be times you struggle,and instead of being frustrated or upset by it, realize that this is all part of the process, and once you get thru this rough path, you will have leveled up!
Usually, getting a humbling reminder that there is a lot to learn, and many skills to master in each domain can make you feel overwhelmed.
This feeling can lead to inaction. From there, you lose any momentum you had. Once that happens, its not long before you quit all together.
I’ve seen this happen so many times.
In fact, I’ve written about this before
The point is, during these times when things aren’t going your way, you have to double down and adopt the attitude that “I will get thru this no matter what!”
Perhaps to do so, you need to block out some time thats distraction free to think about the issue, read potential solutions, or just try new approaches.
Maybe you can meet up with a mentor or a mastermind group, and get their advice.
Either way, this will be a time of growth…its just that you are going thru some growing pains.
With the proper mindset, you will get thru the issue, and you will be better off for it.
Understand that you wont be good at everything right away, so embrace the suck!
Get comfortable with it…because eventually another issue will happen.
But next time you will be better prepared and have more confidence you will get thru it even faster!
