Week 17 – “You Complete Me”…. Really?

 

This week I was pondering more on the things I think about and that I find, in all honesty, pretty idiotic.   Maybe you have a few of these thoughts yourself.  Those moments you decided NOT to do something because you thought “Somebody does that better than I can.” or “Somebody else is doing that already, so why should I do the same thing?”

I notice that I have those kind of thoughts and that makes it sound like life is some sort of competition, although it really isn’t.

Another thought I have had “Since I don’t have something as good (if not better) than what somebody else has”, I sabotage myself to think that I couldn’t do as good of  job as that guy did simply because I don’t possess the external stuff that the other person has.

It’s like the “You Complete Me” scene in Jerry Maguire that Mark was referring to in the last webinar. It was like me thinking “I need this_______ before I can _______” or “If I only had ________. ”

In actuality, I don’t need anything new to start something. I already have the things I need to start moving towards accomplishing my Definite Major Plan right now.   As for somebody that is already doing something similar that I’m doing (or interested in doing), I remind myself of the line in Scroll IV “Salesman and goods, different from all others, and proud of the difference.” Ya they may have stuff that could make my job easier and better in a lot of ways,  compared to what I have at the time being, but it doesn’t mean I can’t do something AND succeed nevertheless.
