4 Success Saboteurs & How To Capture Them - Part 1
Author: Steve Little9 Apr
Often heralded as crusaders committed to improving society and making money in the process, entrepreneurs are people who operate a new enterprise or venture and accept full accountability for the inherent risks associated with it.
By their very nature successful entrepreneurs are wired a little differently from most.
They often operate outside of the conventional and blaze radical new success paths for others to follow.
Usually beginning with nothing more than an inspiration or an idea they often “go it alone” for a time developing a strategy, researching the market and so forth.
Understanding the universal Law of Attraction they intuitively know to focus their internal energy through affirmative focused thought, visualization, and meditation to engage a deep subconscious purposeful commitment to an accomplishment.
As the idea takes shape, they share the idea openly to enroll the energy of others to aid in the manifestation of the desired outcome.
However, because of these traits, entrepreneurs are particularly susceptible to an insidious assortment of challenges to productivity and accomplishment.
The key difference between highly successful entrepreneurs and others is that they do not become subject to them to these challenges.
Instead, they innovate personal behavioral practices that equip themselves to conquer them.
In this multipart series I will identify the 4 of the most common success saboteurs and offer 4 techniques that will help you prevail over them:
Saboteur #1 Multitasking
It is in an entrepreneur’s nature to enthusiastically take on a continuously growing collection of projects and tasks. The urge to multitask can be overwhelming at times.
Do you find yourself clicking from window to window on your computer writing articles, checking and responding to emails and browsing the web in frenetic time slices?
Is your office cluttered with 3, 6, 12 or more projects in progress?
Are you proud to identify yourself as a “multi-tasker”?
The fact is multitasking is not a badge of honor.
It is instead a silent saboteur of your productivity and success.
While it may feel like you are busy and doing a lot of work, I believe at the end of the day you will find that, while there may be lots of checks on a task list, the accomplishment of your purposeful commitment will be completely lacking.
Have you ever gotten to the end of the day feeling exhausted and spent, looked back and felt like, even your did a lot, you did not accomplish much?
If so, you have been a victim of the Multitasking saboteur.
Multitasking is clearly the most prevalent and insideous saboteur.
Stop back next week to learn how you can, once and for all, defintively capture this success assassin.
Please share your comments. I would like to hear you ‘multi-tasking’ story.
Gratefully,
Steve
