The Challenge Is The Fun Part
If you're struggling, maybe even feeling threatened inside your own business right now. You're not alone, me too. You know the AI space is quickly moving and has a lot of competition. So I feel the pressure all the time. I won't offer up how you should feel about it, the pressure -- But this is how I handle it, if that's valuable to you. I look at what needs to be done and I get to work, I see it as a fun (call me crazy) challenge. I mean, the fact that you can lose, also means you have a chance to win, that is a lucky gift to have. The chance to be the best, especially if you believe in yourself. What a lucky place to be in. I kind of secretly love the challenge, in the most uncomfortable way possible. I mean business is competitive. Sports are competitive. And it should feel like it. If it wasn't a challenge, I mean... how much value could there really be in what we're doing? So, maybe not the perfect mental frame to make everything feel fine and dandy, but maybe just the thing you need to pick yourself off the ground and get to work. The best mental frames don't make the anxiety or fear leave, they just make it possible to move forward. And hopefully move forward quickly.
