Crash and Quit or Crash and Create
6 Steps You Can Take To Create Before Quitting
When you crash into a mental brick wall do you quit or create?
Are you reactive or proactive? Does victimhood suit you or do
you reject it?
Have you ever crashed? Most of us have. I certainly have. I've
been in at least two car crashes, one plane crash (I lived), one
motorcycle crash, a bus crash and I fell off the side of a very
small mountain once. Oh, and I've been shot, but only once.
That's when I stopped making statements like; 'I've got to
get out more often.'
Those experiences are why I'm so fond of the quote from
Richard Bach's book 'Illusions.' 'If you're wondering if your
mission on earth is complete and you're still here, it's not.'
The kind of crash I'm writing to you about today is the mental
kind. Physical survival can sometimes be easier on the soul than
the extreme challenges that come from within.
A mental crash is any negative event that isn't physical. A death
of a loved one, the loss of a major client, the failure to make an
important sale, disappointment in not getting a raise, the loss of
a relationship from breakup to divorce are all mental crashes.
You can also look at a myriad of daily challenges the same way.
There are problems that seem unsolvable that defeat some
people before any actual losses occur. Quit or create?
When it comes to businesses, companies don't fail, people do.
Whether you're a sole proprietor or part of a conglomerate,
people determine direction, action and reaction. How we solve
our problems and recover from crashes is as a result of our
learning process. Some crash and quit. Some crash and create.
When I began the seminar and then writing the book, 'How To
Take No For An Answer And Still Succeed,' it was about creating
after all kinds of crashes. Heck, I was an expert by then. (For
the story of how the seminar and book came into creation, visit,
http://http://howtotakeno.com/index2.html )
Creativity has to be called upon to solve any problem - except
when the solution is to quit. We have the power of amazing
resilience. If it doesn't show up we can call it up.
6 Things You Can To Create Instead of Quitting:
1. First, accept what's happened. It has happened, that's it.
Time to decide what's next.
2. Ask yourself if you're being reactive or proactive.
3. Then ask yourself this question, 'If I don't quit, what's the
best thing that could happen to me?
4. Then this one, 'How can I make this better?' What can you
do? Write out all the ideas you can think of, no matter how
outrageous they seem.
5. Who can you call on for help or advice? Write out all the
names you can think of. Scan your address book for more.
Don't be afraid to ask. What's the worst thing they could say?
NO! Big deal. If you have a problem with that be sure to read
my book.
6. What positive action can you take NOW to improve your
circumstances?
When you get used to considering your options you won't be so
likely to be reactive. In emergency situations you won't have
time for this kind of thinking. But if you consider these things
when you have the time, you'll be more likely to create positive
actions under the most stressful conditions.
The focus here, however, has to be on the crash and what you
can do to recover. Part of our lessons in life is how we learn to
avoid perilous situations. It doesn't mean they won't happen.
My concentration is on what we do after they happen.
The book that's sold all over the world is now available in an e-book! Including some very special handpicked bonuses that I know you're going love.
