Patty: Hey, hey, my legacy there this is Episode 25 this is your solo show. It's just me with some real talk and I wanted to share a revelation.
Not necessarily a revelation as much as pulling Macros it's about time I got this. This whole concept of just asking just letting go just letting go of the assumptions that we make when we don't want to inconvenience someone by saying hey I need help or just asking or I mean I really think it comes down to letting go of control and really stepping up and just asking for help.
I mean you're not fully anybody right. If you're if you're making it look like you have it all together. The fact of the matter is you don't. I know I did it for a very very long time and I always used to say oh it's because I have a type A personality I'm Alpha person or maybe you are not an alpha person and more of a behind the scenes Type person and more quiet and you're. And the outlook that you have is that want to really inconvenience anybody. Either way it doesn't matter because.
Fact of the matter is when you look at it you just can't do it all. And so what I have really discovered in this time that I have been self-employed since January of 2013 is that even if I think I can get it all together and have it all together and I can keep it all together it's just a bunch of bullshit you cannot. So take inventory. I beg you to take inventory because what's going to happen is you're going to get adrenal fatigue. Just like I did.
You are going to have potentially hormonal issues just like I did. You're going to have this malaise about you where you're dragging you're just feeling like you're dragging and you're feeling bugged down and you feel like you know what. How long is it going to take for this business to take off so that I can stop feeling this way? And the fact of the matter is just take inventory.
Are you doing too much because you don't have to? And the whole mentality of the grind and the hustle and the discipline that I was watching OK. I completely admit sometimes I watch real housewives and I was looking at one of the episodes when one of the Housewives was saying she's like I still hustling I'm hustling hard and ever since
I started my program a coaching program with my mentor Jim Forten he's all about the whole hustle idea is just a bunch of B.S. I I Don't give into it.
It's so ridiculous. Why do you have to hustle anything you don't? And so he is about being practical focusing in on the strengths that you have. And of course asking for help when the areas where you just know that you're not good enough meaning you don't have that talent you don't have that super power.
It's not a matter of saying oh I can't do it because I'm stellar do anything to do with intelligence it's taking inventory again going to that point of are you doing too much. Are you spending time on dumb shit that you shouldn't be spending time with. Doing things that you just shouldn't be doing when you could outsource that to someone.
Or are you saying yes when you really should've said no. So that goes into a whole other area that I'm going to skip for right now. But thing is when you ask ask for help ask for the assistance that you're looking for that you wished you could have and while you're thinking of oh it's just easier if I do it because I used to do the same thing.
Now why don't you just ask? You know ask yourself can you outsource that particular thing that you think you're doing that you're saving money on so that you could just figure it out and keep doing...
