Have you ever found yourself scrolling around the internet, when you’re supposed to be getting something important done?
Checking the news for the last 24 hours?
How about checking your email?
Or maybe even taking a nap rather than making that important call?
Would it surprise you if I told you that what inspires you to do this is the very same thing that makes people hesitate to jump out of the door while skydiving?
Yep.
It’s all the same thing: Fear.
More specifically, Fear of the Unknown.
After all, you know pretty well what you will see if you check your email, or even the news.
Taking a nap’s pretty safe.
But if you contact that high value prospect? Hmm. Will they say yes or no?
Outcome unknown.
Same as jumping out of the plane.
Will you land safely, or not? You can’t know. Not for sure.
And yet, curiously, the ability to forge ahead and take these sorts of “leaps of faith,” are the very things that drive you and your business forward on a daily basis, as opposed to stagnating in the same soup you were in yesterday.
Now, I have to say.
As far as I know, Fear is here to stay.
There's nothing I know of that will vanquish it for good, take it off the face of the Earth, forever.
Right?
However.
There is one thing that you can do, at any given moment, that will take fear out of the equation, for you, and make it disappear, just long enough for you to do whatever it is you need to do, in that given moment.
So...

| | Here’s your action item for today:
- When faced with fear, or even finding yourself procrastinating because you’re unsure of the outcome of something (see: “feeling fear”) - follow the steps below.
- Think about something you are really grateful for in the moment. Maybe it's someone in your family, or maybe it’s just how the weather could be a lot worse today. Whatever it is, focus all your attention on being grateful for that one thing. If possible, say something out loud about how appreciative you are for that.
- You will find your fear abating for about 30 seconds, while you focus on gratitude. This is because fear cannot exist in the same space as gratitude.
- While your fear is in hiding, take the leap: do that thing you were afraid of,
while your gratitude is in full force, and before your fear comes out of hiding. By the time it comes back out to haunt you, it will be too late: Mission Accomplished!

| That’s it! Simple as it sounds, I encourage you to give it a go and see how it works.
And, you know, if it works for you? Drop me a line and tell me about it! Because hey.
I’m like everybody: if I make a positive change in someone’s life, I want to know! :-)
It’s human nature.

| | P.S. Know of someone that has hit a wall or plateau with their revenue and sales?
Next time you're in a conversation with them, feel free to make an introduction and let's see if we can help them.
You can make an easy introduction by using this app our team built at: https://invite.breakthrough3x.com
As you may know, working with us in some ways is like having a virtual CEO and CMO on your team.
Next time we talk, remind me to share some of the key things working to have a bigger impact.
One of our private clients recently had 5,200 people register for their webinar - over 2400 show up (this is way above average) - and they also did heavy 6-figures in a few weeks with this...
Another of our clients used a simple invitation campaign we helped create for them and it led to over 86 people raising their hands and about 6-figures in business too.
Let's not let 'tech' get in the way of you making money and having a bigger impact.
Frankly, I've been seeing a lot of really talented people trying to rely on tech too much - and struggling.
Here are 3 steps to create a revenue stimulus and generate new clients today:
1 - Pique potential clients interest with value and an invitation
2 - Engage with your potential clients. Take it offline when you need to. Use the phone.
3 - Enroll them if they are a right fit.
Nothing fancy pants about this approach. It just works. ;-)
Talk soon and hit me up if you need something.
- D.K.
