The Broken Clock

So you are working your guts out and absolutely nothing seems to be going your way. What do you do?

Are you going to start doubting yourself? Are you going to start trash-talking yourself? It can't be all bad. Even a broken clock gets it right twice a day.

What you may have to do is take a step back and take an honest look at what you are doing and what is happening. And you may need a mentor or reliable friend that can look you in the eyes and give you feedback that isn't sugar-coated with rainbows and unicorns.

First off you need to determine if what you are doing is worth doing. If it's not worth doing, STOP DOING IT.

If the rewards will never exceed the effort and investment you are putting in, cut your losses and find something else to do.

But if it's worth doing, keep at it. Maybe you just haven't put in enough time and effort.

Secondly, you need to determine where you are going wrong in your plan of execution. You do have a gameplan don't you?

Maybe nothing is going wrong. Maybe you just need to keep doing what your doing. Maybe you aren't being consistent doing what needs to be done on a regular basis.

So keep at. Stay in the zone, so to speak. Eventually something will happen.
