I have recently read Gary Keller's book "The Millionaire Real Estate Agent" and found it very helpful. There is an short part in one chapter titled "The Real You". It is an acronym for the word TRY.
In my last blog post, Live Life Once, Live It to the Fullest, I said to try and fail is not to fail, but failure is failing to try. Right after I wrote that post I came upon a chapter in the book talking about trying. With the analogy of TRY equals THE REAL YOU, I had to spend time pondering this statement. I asked myself many questions and mentally reviewed occurrences in my life to see if what the book was saying had any merit.
I do believe it does. The book said many people never experience the real you because they are afraid to try. Fear is the number one enemy of the human endeavor. It is only when we break free of our fears that we can really accomplish great things. I have in recent years released my fears and gone forth in a way with my business I would have never tried before. The results have been amazing.
It took me years to decide that I had nothing to lose by trying but everything to gain. It took a commitment, dedication and focus I did not have previously. It took knowledge, confidence which came because of the knowledge I had gained, it took support of people I highly respected. Put all these things together and then add the action of TRYing and there will be no holding you back.
Let the world see who THE REAL YOU is.
