The beauty of being your own boss is that you are your own boss. You can write and rewrite the rules whenever you want. The worst thing about being your own boss is that you are your own boss. So, you want to create mechanisms to keep yourself accountable… You want to start thinking: What is E.L.F.® (Easy, Lucrative, and Fun!) – in your Business and Life?
When is the last time you had a Super Happy Fun Day?
When is the last time you had a date night with your partner? When was the last time you called someone who was instrumental in helping you in your Life and said, “Thank You. I love you. I want to send you a gift. I want to hang out with you…”
As my good friend Dan Sullivan says, “Entrepreneurs who are too tightly scheduled can’t transform themselves.”
As Entrepreneurs, we need to constantly do so much to feel like we’re valuable. Anyone, including myself, who puts themselves out there with podcasts, videos, books, and more wants the world to like them. We want the applause; we want the validation. This is great if it helps people, but if your whole world revolves around your ego, it’s a very empty way to live.
You can make a lot of money and be very well known, but, again, it’s a very empty way to live.
What will make you feel your best is completely up to you. No one gives a sh*t about your life the way you care about your Life. Maybe your family cares. Maybe someone who is an amazing friend would take a bullet for you… But if you think about it, what would you die for in this world? WHO would you die for? What’s so important you would die for it? Are you giving those things the time, attention, and energy they deserve and need? Or are you consumed by all the trivial nonsense that is constantly there?
