What's up everyone?
Welcome back to my channel.
Now, it's already mid January, and something that I've been noticing is there's a lot of
videos out there about how to stick to your goals for 2019.
Well, I'm here to do things a little bit differently, and actually tell you why I think you're gonna
epically fail this year on sticking to those goals.
Now, for as long as I can remember, ever since really committing to the path of personal
growth, I've always been super fascinated with understanding the differences between
rich people and poor people.
And I don't mean poor in finances or poor in money, I mean poor in the mind, poor in
growth, poor in abundance.
There's a very clear difference between these two types of people.
And when actually thinking about goal-setting, you're gonna start to realize that it's always
the poor people that never achieve their goals.
And unfortunately, it's the majority of the population that actually fall under this category.
That's why in today's video, I'm actually gonna be raining on your parade and letting
you know why most people are gonna fail at sticking to their goals.
If you wanna know if you're a part of that majority, then keep on watching.
Now, the first reason why I think that you won't be achieving your goal this year is
because you don't see or understand where your goal actually takes you.
Sometimes it's really easy to want to achieve a goal, but not actually be super serious
about actually achieving it.
And what you'll notice is that the difference between rich people and poor people is that
poor people fail to recognize the doors that achieving that goal will actually open.
For instance, it's basically not understanding the fact that, if you work out three times
a week it actually makes the difference between whether or not you live until 65 or if you
live until 85.
Because what you need to realize is that rich people or people with rich mindsets don't
mind spending their time, energy, and resources on building momentum on something, even though
results aren't showing right away.
it's really all about understanding the principle that it's more important to get the ball rolling,
even if there isn't an immediate return.
Whereas with poor people, their mindset is all about short-term gain and short-term results.
These are the types of people that are probably the ones that are most likely to sell their
stock position, and panic sell when the market goes down.
They're also the type of people that want to return courses because they didn't get
results right away, or they're also the type of people that quit the gym because they didn't
lose weight after one session.
So again, if you aren't able to actually see where your goal can take you or the doors
that'll open or the longterm benefits of actually achieving the goal that you have in mind for
2019, then I'm sorry to break it to you, my friend, but more likely than not you're probably
going to fail at achieving it this year.
The second reason why I think you're gonna fail this year at your goals is because you
don't understand the dip.
Rich people understand that they need to keep going even when the going gets tough, and
they understand the concept called the dip.
The dip is basically a concept created by Seth Godin.
What it illustrates is that everything worth having is going to be hard, but rewards are
given to those who are actually able to push past difficulty.
Because there are extraordinary benefits reserved for the minority of people who are actually
able to push through things a little bit longer than most.
To prove this point even further, I'm gonna throw out the diagram of what the dip actually
looks like, so that you understand.
Essentially, when you first start something, it's going to be fun and after a few days
and a few weeks you're still going on because of the experience and because you're learning
a lot.
However, eventually, you're gonna hit the dip, and the dip is essentially the long slog
between actually starting something and actually mastering something.
However, what you need to know is that the dip creates scarcity, because unfortunately,
the majority of the people aren't gonna be able to get past this point.
The dip is where most people actually fail and where most people actually quit.
That being said, scarcity creates value, so the people, the small minority of people,
actually, who are able to push past the dip and push past that pain, they become the most
valuable people in the world.
Now that you've understood this concept, something that you should know is that Seth Godin, in
his book, what he also says is that if you don't believe that you can actually get past
this dip, then don't even bother starting.
When thinking about your goals, really ask yourself are you prepared to push through
the dip?
Last but not least, here's the final reason why I think you're not gonna be able to achieve
your goal this year.
And that is, is that you don't believe in yourself.
Now, I know this sounds cheesy but hear me out.
Rich people believe in themselves, and they believe in their value, and their ability
to deliver that value to other people.
Poor people, on the other hand, do not believe in themselves.
That's why what you'll notice is that most poor people wanna make sure that there's always
a guarantee for something.
Or, they always think about plan B, C, D, E, before they even start plan A.
Because the key difference here is that rich people know that they deserve success.
They believe in their abilities and the confidence that they have to push forward, and they don't
dwell so much and waste time and energy and resources focusing on their insecurities.
And yes, of course, the path to success is scary, but rich people see past that fear
and use fear as a navigation tool for self-growth.
They go out there and work and they earn what they believe is rightfully theirs.
On the other hand, when you have a poor mindset, you're gonna have a tendency to undervalue
yourself and consistently take small actions that truly reflect what you think you deserve.
Which, when you have a poor mindset, isn't much.
Now, with that being said, I know that a lot of people who watch my videos aspire to one
day put themselves out there on social media or maybe even start their own businesses.
Now, what I have to say to you is that rich people are willing to self-promote.
They're willing to actually put themselves out there, promote their work, because they
believe that what they do is actually valuable and will serve the world.
Poor people, on the other hand, think completely differently and they see selling and promotion
as incredibly negative.
Now, what I have to say is, that even if you don't have a business or you're not aspiring
to be a content creator, regardless of the fact, understanding your value and understanding
your worth is still incredibly important in real life.
You're gonna need to have the ability to self-promote and these are the things that rich people
have mastered.
In your job, you're gonna need to actually be able to put yourself in an environment
where your value is actually appreciated, so that you can get promotion.
You can land certain titles, but not only this, you need to be able to see that worth
and actually communicate it to the world.
Again, these are things that rich people have mastered.
So my friends, if you actually want to accomplish your goal this year, you need to have unwavering
belief in yourself and believe in your ability to actually accomplish it.
If you don't have that, then I guarantee you're not gonna be able to successfully complete
your goal this year.
That being said, you've reached the end of the video.
I really hope you enjoyed my three reasons of why I think the majority of the people
are actually gonna fail at their New Year's goals this year.
But, I trust that that's not gonna be you.
