Introduction: Achieving the Life You Deserve and Desire
There are millions of entrepreneurs like you and me who have a burning desire to skyrocket the growth of their businesses to create a greater impact in the world and make more money because of it. Yet most entrepreneurs fail to reach their potential and achieve their financial and personal goals because of two key constraints: fear and misaligned priorities. First, they allow their fears, doubts, and limiting beliefs to slow them down or stop them from taking the action required to achieve their goals. Second, they spend every waking moment working on their business, thereby neglecting their health, relationships, and every other area of their life.
The reality is that waiting for your fears to disappear keeps you from creating the life you deserve and desire right now. Waiting to be more courageous before taking action is limiting you from creating the life you deserve. And misaligning your priorities massively undermines the energy, focus, and confidence you need to create the most value in your business and skyrocket your income.
The world is changing faster than ever before. On one hand, today is the best time in history to become an entrepreneur with the greatest opportunity. On the other hand, the rapid growth of technology is radically transforming the entrepreneurial landscape by removing barriers to entry, which has led to unprecedented levels of competition.
In order for todays entrepreneur to achieve their life goals, they have to be more than just successful in business. The house in the suburbs and two cars that used to be the American Dream has now become the American Nightmare. Success is no longer defined simply by wealth. Although wealth is a key component of success and happiness, its not the only thing.
If youre like most entrepreneurs, youve made significant sacrifices to get to where you are right now. Youve missed your kids Little League games. Youve canceled on date night with your spouse. Youve hit snooze and skipped your morning workout because you were burning the midnight oil in your business.
This doesnt only apply to entrepreneurs. This sacrifice is common for anyone who is committed to being successful in their career. And although some level of sacrifice is undoubtedly required as you pursue your dreams, being maniacally obsessed with your career severely impairs your quality of life. Obsession is a good thing when harnessed and focused in the right capacity. But blind obsession? That can be devastating to ones life.
To be sure, something is missing in the life of the modern-day entrepreneura sense of happiness and fulfillment. The concept of balance has become more of a far-fetched dream than a reality. It is something that the self-help gurus preach from stage, but rarely live themselves. So the modern entrepreneur is left to wonder, Is it really possible? Is it possible to reach my financial goals while becoming healthy, vibrant, happy, joyful, and fulfilled in all other areas of my life? My answer is a resounding yes!
But in order to achieve your fullest potential in all areas of life, you must first develop a fearless mindset. Now what is a fearless mindset you ask? A fearless mindset is a way of viewing yourself and the world around you. It includes a set of foundational, non-negotiable beliefs and attitudes that propel you to take on new challenges and keep moving forward despite obstacles so you can become an unstoppable entrepreneur. Chapter 5, Becoming Unstoppable, will list ten such beliefs and explain in detail exactly how to go about acquiring those beliefs yourself.
I learned by interviewing some of the worlds most successful entrepreneurs that the secret to creating a fearless mindset is all about how you live your daily life. Its the choices and actions you make every single day that make up your life. Its what you do and think that propels you toward or repels you from your life vision. Building the right daily habits and rituals will help skyrocket your energy, focus, and confidence and allow you to handle any adversity you encounter. The fearless mindset will empower you to live courageously despite your fears, doubts, and limiting beliefs.
When you have a fearless mindset, youll not only succeed in business, but youll be able to achieve balance in your life. This book will teach you how to create a fearless mindset so that as a busy entrepreneur you can get fit in less time, double your income, and become unstoppable.
