“While we are postponing, life speeds by.”
Lately I have found myself very easily distracted. Whether it be taking the dog out for walks or talking on the phone with a friend for too long or reading everyone’s status updates on Facebook, I am distracted. There is also that little thing going on right now called the “financial meltdown” that is also quite distracting. Distracting me from what? It’s all distracting me from holding my focus, being clear on what I want to achieve and actually doing it. I have found that a lot of people right now, understandably so, are feeling not only distracted but discouraged with the state of the world. They are adopting what I call a “freeze” mentality. And what that means is not doing anything but sitting tight. People who are unhappy in their jobs are “freezing” because it isn’t the time to take risks. People who are thinking of making big changes in their life like buying a house or traveling for a year or starting a business, they are all “freezing” until they see how the world shakes out. We hear the word “freeze” all over; “Hiring freeze”, “Spending freeze” or some guys may even say “relationship freeze”.
Where does this “freezing” leave us? Frozen and pretty damn cold, I say. So, how do we thaw ourselves out of this freeze while still staying responsible? How do we get movement back into our lives? And what are we moving towards? I have decided to take all of these questions and turn them into our first “Mastermind Series” event which I have listed below. I have been working on this for quite some time and am really excited to get all of your minds together to challenge each other to take things to the next level. We will be hosting it at the wine bar and restaurant Bin 38 where you can learn and grow all while sipping a glass of wine! The first ten people to sign up will get in for FREE so be sure to sign up early.
