Exposed: The great workaholic lie!

workaholic
Workaholics are not really workaholics.
It’s never work, which the so-called workaholic is addicted to. Instead, they’re hooked on the feelings that come from doing something they love. That passion and joy is what inspires them all day, every day.
When you do something you love, it’s natural to want to keep doing it.
  • It’s why Nile Rodgers still creates and performs.
  • It’s why Arnold Schwarzenegger is still making movies.
  • It’s why Bill Gates is still making a difference.
ALL of those guys are in their 60’s. NONE of them need the money. What they do need, are the feelings associated with their “work”.
Conversely, someone who finds their work frustrating, boring or stressful, pays to go on vacation… to get away from work. They spend a tiny amount of time each year, doing what they love. They have the equation completely the wrong way around.

No one is addicted to meaningless work

If you get paid for doing what you love, you may be a passion-aholic. You could be a joy-aholic or even a pleasure-aholic. But you’re not a workaholic. No one is addicted to working, just for the sake of work.
  • Work without meaning is a way to pay the bills.
  • Work without meaning is empty.
  • Work without meaning leaves you doing things you don’t want to do, for the majority of your adult life.

7 Things you need to know about Worry!

Here are 7 things you need to know about worry, including a more helpful alternative. Stop Worrying Worrying doesn’t make things better. In fact, it’s 100% counter-productive. Worrying is a hideous waste of your time. Time is your most valuable resource. Worrying is infectious to your clients and customers. You can usually tell very quickly, when a business owner is worried about business. It’s common for people to pull their accounts from vendors, who they believe may be about to go broke. Worrying causes you to make bad decisions. The vast majority of things we worry about, either never happen or when they do happen, were nothing to worry about. Worrying causes you to feel worse [and worse and worse]. Worrying is the lowest possible use of your amazing imagination. When we worry, we use our mind as a movie theatre, which plays the worst case scenarios of whatever we’re worrying about, over and over again. Instead, change the movie. Use your mind to build images of what you

How to Bake Marketing into your business

Image
The most successful businesses bake marketing into their services. In this post, I will explain what that means and why you should do the same. If you have not heard the term before, baking marketing into a service (or product) means creating something, which is of so much value and interest that people want to buy it and also tell their friends about it. This is how products like the iPhone and services like Uber grew so popular, so fast. Most small business owners do the opposite Look around you at your competitors and you will notice how similar they are. Remarkably so. In fact, their similarity to one another is the only remarkable thing about them. So, they try and undercut one another on prices or fees, out network one another or outspend one another on marketing. They are focusing their time and money in completely the wrong direction. They are trying to get people interested in something, which isn’t interesting. This is a costly, avoidable mistake. I want something
