You don’t have the resources to be successful!
You don’t have the money to start or grow a business….
You don’t have the time to dedicate to working on yourself…
You don’t have the knowledge, experience and skills needed to be good at something you’d love to do…
That’s what you keep telling yourself anyway, isn’t it?
It’s easier to look at our goals and justify why we haven’t hit them by looking at all the things we don’t have.
When I came out of prison, I went to rehab for 6 months.
Whilst I was in there, I had to sign on benefits…
… and when I was released from rehab:
I had nothing.
– Not a penny.
– No qualifications.
– And my time was spent in full-time education during the day, work in the evenings, and drug and alcohol meetings on the weekends.
It’s fair to say that some would assume I had no resources…
However, I did!
I had the most POWERFUL resource available to anyone…
My emotional and mental state.
I was hungry, determined and opportunistic.
You see, this is a resource that we can all summons up.
One that will allow us to become…
Resourceful!
When you’re resourceful, you can acquire any additional resource you want.
With passion, or hunger, or determination…
– You can take action to start a business.
– Have the patience to get an education.
– Prioritise your life to find the time for things that are important to you.
Because the truth?
Although you feel that you ‘NEED’ all these resources in your life to succeed…
… resources are simply ‘nice to haves’.
They make life easier…
Yeah, lots of money, time, qualifications and experience would make life ‘easier’.
But that doesn’t mean you can’t have the things you desire…
To acquire them, you have everything you need right now!
Your emotional and mental state.
So, next time you tell yourself you don’t have the resources to be successful.
Change the story you’re telling yourself…
Decide to become resourceful.
Look in the mirror…
And realise that that YOU are the only resource you really need to have whatever the fuck you want.
