I was talking yesterday with a coach who told me she wants to break into corporate wellbeing consulting.
She’s hesitating because:
“The world’s a crazy place right now!
The economy is uncertain!
We might be on the verge of WW3!
I want to wait till things calm down a bit!”
OK. Let’s unpack that.
1: The world is always a crazy place. That’s what makes life fun and rewarding.
2: The economy is always uncertain. That’s why it’s such a privilege being able to build our own economy as entrepreneurs.
3: WW3 is always a possibility. Or not. So what? You’ll be better off in either scenario with a thriving business and financial stability.
4: Things will never calm down. The natural state universe of the universe is entropy – the tendency towards chaos.
The real issue for this lady is confusing things over which she has no control with those she can control.
Can control: Personal emotions, thoughts and actions
No control: Everything else
Understanding that universal truth is the ultimate key to success in life and business.
For the record, this happens to be an excellent time to get into corporate wellbeing consulting. You get paid more, for longer, and you only need a small handful of clients.
Love you lots
