[The Swedish Organizer] Creating Space, Vol, 8: Kindness is Rare...& We Have to Fix That. Seriously.

Kindness is Rare...& We Have to Fix That. Seriously.
Welcome
Talent isn't enough.
I wish it was. I truly do.
We all deserve the best in life, and if I had the genie-in-a-bottle power to hand you everything on a silver platter, I would. Faster than you could say "thank you!"
But that's just not how life works, so we can't pretend that it does.
This past year, I’ve seen so many people fall victim to mindset issues. They have all the ingredients for success, but they’re not willing to put in the work to make things happen for themselves. Frankly, it’s painful to watch. To “make it,” you have to rise above your talent, and do the things that others aren’t willing to do: learn how to make deals, network, package your offers, set up systems and operations, create marketing campaigns…. and the list goes on. Those who do it soar. Those who don’t spin their wheels. Their blindspots get the best of them, and they get outperformed by those who have their ducks in a row. It’s that simple. Determination is the great divide.
I’m dedicated to helping my clients, but I can’t do the actual mindset work for them. They have to do that bit themselves. I can help with motivation, of course, but if you’re not willing to put in the work, there’s no strategy I can deploy that fixes a problem that massive.
That's what we call a BIG distraction, remember? Entrepreneurship is difficult, and it takes going the extra mile.
It’s something I work on myself continuously. We're never really finished either because it's an ongoing learning journey. The minute you think you're done learning, you're wrong. If you think talent is going to carry you all the way to the top, you’re sadly mistaken. No matter how much of it was bestowed upon you at birth, there’s no substitute for drive and determination. So with that said, I'd love to know: How motivated are you really?
Hit reply and let me know.

Believe it or not, but the holiday season is soon upon us... which means it’s time to set goals for a strong end-of-year quarter. I love Q4. It means family time, snowy landscapes, and sipping hot chocolate by a cozy fireplace… at least if you’re on my side of the globe. If you’re on the other side of the globe, it might mean sunshine and a strong sea breeze. That’s never wrong either. Regardless of your view though, let's come together to plan abundant bank accounts that we can use to spread...
