Why do people quit?

Did you quit? Did you give up on your business? Did you decide "it doesn't work"?

With 8.5 years of experience behind me, I find myself reflecting on why people quit. There is a lot of material written on this subject. The message is similar - all the experts agree it exists - this trend to quit before one gets going.

I remember reading, years ago, that people tend to quit just at the corner of success.

I find some even get a taste of success and still quit.

Why? What makes a person "give up" or "change gears" just at that point of success?

There is really only one answer - Fear.

It's that simple. People are afraid, afraid of change, afraid to face the unknown. And while I can hear you saying, "I'm not afraid ... I really want to be successful", and if you are truly honest and listen carefully you will hear the fear inside you saying "Sure you want it BUT ....".

Success, to most, is a relative unknown. We all think we want it but reality is, we are scared to death of it.

Why is that? What is it people are afraid of?

Freedom? Does that scare you? The ability to make your own decisions? That's really what freedom means. Are you afraid of what money might do to you?

The real question is, how does one overcome that fear? What button does one push to turn it off? Reality is, we don't even know where the fear comes from so it's difficult to recognize and shut off.

So, how do you shut it off?

It's simple, really .... You BELIEVE and then TRUST!

You work on your belief every minute of every day until you "get it" and then you trust. That's it.

I will admit that I know this fear and facing it can be difficult ... but when you "get it", you will wonder what on earth you were ever afraid of!

When you truly understand the power you have to create whatever you want in your life, you will look forward to every moment of every day with anticipation and excitement.

You will welcome all the new that will come to you. You will become whatever you want to become, you will realize your dreams and more.

You will know and understand a freedom that is beyond words.

Ok, I can hear your burning question. Where do you start?

Everyone is going to find their favourite mentor or book or video or audio or whatever they need to help them release that fear and learn to believe and trust.

I had many mentors along my journey and one stands out above the rest for me and that is Tools to Life with Coach Devlyn Steele. My mentor for the last 6 years, Dev has developed a system that helps anyone overcome their fears in a way that really does work.
