How's your big but? | Mark E. Sackett

ARE YOU GIVING YOURSELF THE BEST POSSIBLE CHANCE? I met another big BUT just now! Next to me at lunch two start up geniuses were also talking about their big BUTS as well! Let's all call it what it is, we struggle from time to time and none of us escape it. So what's the solution? I will argue that in most cases, the solution is right in front of us. But we get very bogged down in our habits and stories and not's! Someone called me around 10am today. This is a person who I have been offering help to for a while now. They said, "Mark, I give up this is never gonna work and I am getting desperate!" To this I said, "Did you call the person I referred you to, and have you posted this on all my groups and walls as I offered and did you send me the email of your business plan for me to review?" He said, "Ummm No!" Look if you are not willing to help yourself, use the tools and resources offered to you and you are stuck, then what up with all that? I hear that story day after day. I know it's sometimes hard to get stuff done but at least get out of your own way and show up for yourself and your big ideas. You really don't have to struggle that much. Well if any of this sounds familiar "The Art of Active Networking" might be for you! If not, pass this on to your network and let us try to help them ok? Next week you have 3 opportunities and this month you have 4! See you soon!
