Who wants to join me in an experiment? Even though I consider myself a go-getter and do my best to get out of my own way, Ive been hyper aware lately of how often I tell myself I cant do something. My guess is that we all do this many times a day without even realizing it. So heres the experiment. For one week, starting now, write down every time you tell yourself no. For those of you that join me, there will be a phase two after this week. For now, just notice, and write down. Here are some examples Ive noticed in myself, in just the past week: Look at this cool job! That would be awesome to work there. But Im not qualified. I wish I could take a trip to visit friends in LA. But I dont have the time or money. If only I had some big investors. But I have no idea how to get them. I probably cant. Id never look good in a shirt like that. Ill get something else instead. This persons life is exactly how I want mine to be. But Ill probably never get there because _____. I cant ask him out, hed never say yes. I wish I would have learned to play the piano. Its too late now. I want to get paid to make the kind of videos I like, instead of the kind I dont like. But people wont pay me to do those kind. It would change my life if _______ , but that wont happen. I want to talk to Amy Poehler, but shes a celebrity, so that would be impossible. COMMENT BELOW IF YOU ARE GOING TO JOIN ME! And then carry a notebook around with you and write down anytime you have a thought like these. You might be surprised at how often they happen.
