skill issue
Hey friend,
To have, be & do everything that you say that you want, isn’t some magic thing…
There is just a particular set of skills that you haven’t learnt yet.
You don’t have geographical freedom because you haven’t learnt the skills of online business
You don’t have money because you haven’t learnt how to make & manage money
Your not proud of your body, because you haven’t learnt how to eat
You don’t have enough time, because you haven’t learnt how to manage your time
Your don’t have the relationships you want because you haven’t learnt how to create them
So many of the supposedly insurmountable obstacles in peoples way are just simple skill gaps, that with a reasonable of attention are very solvable.
But people will find any other excuse than admitting the truth to themselves.
Its not because of your upbringing
Its not because of your mental health
Its not because of your family
Its not because its unfair
Its not because of the economy
Its not because of your network
Its not because of anything but you
When you stop blaming everything else, and just admit there are just new skills you need to learn
You take your power back
And you can actually move forward.
