I think there is a point where in life or business you reach using your natural ability. And then there is a point where you have to struggle to go beyond. Like a baseball player who can consistantly hit home runs while in little league, high school and college. But when he reaches the pro’s he struggles and has to force himself to really LEARN the game of baseball or fail. I think this is the point when people start to feel like what they do isn’t “fun” anymore. You’ve had this feeling before right?

I have friends who are struggeling to make it beyond the point of natural ability. They are working hard to succeed but aren’t getting any hits. It’s been hard for me to give them advice just because I didn’t understand it myself. I can’t give advice when I’m not entirely sure how I got here.

When I was in Osaka I felt like I was lacking a lot…granted I had a book about to be published and income from my small consulting practice but it was a steady pace. When Martin introduced me to Kiyosaki, Napolean Hill and all of the other business related books he showed me what I was lacking and helped me aquire it.. It made me change the way I thought and moved me in another direction. But the introduction of something new only last for so long because eventually we get set in our ways. I’m preparing for the next change, changes that I urgently need to improve my business. I guess this is just the way things work. When you feel stuck it might be time for you to introduce change. And that change will only get you moving again for a short period of time before you need to re-evaluate yourself again. It’s a continual process. If you aren’t frustrated, you probably aren’t trying. Or as Martin once said “if you aren’t getting rejected by woman, you probably aren’t trying hard enough.”

By the way, I did get my tooth fixed. NYU dental school did it for $90. But it was done by a student. Word to the wise, when a student is doing something in your mouth and says “oh no…” “oh geez…” “crap!” you are right to be worried! Luckly NYU faculty who was a real dentist was around to save the day…and my mouth!
