Are you challenging yourself?
Hi, I’m Brian Pombo. Welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.
I was working with a friend tonight. And I’d mentioned previously that I was helping out with some local politics and national politics and stuff like that. And we’re both doing things locally for it.
I love seeing volunteers, people that have never done things before or haven’t done type of things that we’re doing, like one of the things we’re doing is making phone calls.
And I’m not gonna get into, you know, which side or anything else, that it’s not important. What’s important is that you put yourself out of your comfort zone as often as possible.
As soon as you feel too comfortable, you’re not growing, you’re not moving to the next level. And I have a friend that had never sat down and made these type of phone calls before or no time recently. And they’re really good exercise to be involved in because no matter what you’re going to get people that don’t want to be called, you know, get people that do want to be called, but don’t like the person you’re talking about, or the measure you’re trying to promote or whatever.
And no matter what you’re going to come across adversity with the situation.
It’s great, it’s really good to come in contact with that type of thing so that you can build up resistance to it. So my friend was doing it did two nights in a row.
The first night, the her anxiety was so heavy, that she said she she was just starving, hungry, even though she normally wouldn’t be at that time at night, she was starving afterwards, she said it was because she was so anxious about the situation.
Then tonight, she went through the same situation felt a lot better. It’s getting in the groove of things, and everything is just there’s so much that you can get from pressing yourself out of your comfort zone. So in that last few videos we were talking about, and we do these these every night, if you’re new, we get together and we talk about these principles and strategies and tactics that you can use in your business or to build a business from scratch.
So we’re talking about starting a new business, doing something new, or starting a new piece of your business, starting a new project, and how these type of things can really have the mindset that you have to be in when you first start out.
And I want you to really think about if you’re thinking of doing something new, I want to encourage you to go for it.
Just move forward on it, especially if you cover those first three questions that I mentioned in the last three videos, if those are all for affirmative, you’ve got to press forward. Because the whole thing can go bust the whole thing, you haven’t really you don’t have any control over whether it works or not.
It may not work and it may not have nothing to do with you. But you’ll never know unless you go out there and move forward with it.
I don’t care if you’ve been successful in 100 other businesses, if this if there’s something holding you back, but that something is your comfort zone, you need to get over it, you need to get through it.
And I know you’ve heard all this before.
This is not I not acting like I have any special knowledge here. Okay. And it’s always something I’m challenging myself about. And when I hear that encouragement from others, it helps take me to that next level. So hopefully I can help be then encouragement for you tonight.
Hopefully it’s helpful.
