The best of the best in business, whether it’s an Elon Musk, whether it’s a Steve Jobs, whether it’s those great celebrities, CEOs or massively successful entrepreneurs, almost every single one of them have bulletproofed their interior life.
And what I really mean by that is, you can change the world in terms of being a business titan, or you can get knock down everyone throws a rocket you, you don’t get to do both.
And so the starting point of being a titan in business is developing an interior core where when people laugh at you, they dismiss your impossible dream, they think it’ll never happen, they will say you can’t do it, they have you questioning yourself, so your mind starts to fill with self doubt, you actually have such a strong interior core. You stay true to your ambition, you stay focused and you dismiss the naysayers.
So that really is all about interior bulletproofing, and how do you do that? It’s about reading the autobiographies of people who’ve done it. It’s about listening to the right podcast that fuels your positivity. It’s about protecting your mindset, protecting your hearts, and protecting your energy. It’s about taking the time to work on yourself and even noticing what things activate my fear.
And rather than running away from the things that activate your fear, going into them,
breathing into them, because when you sit with the fear and notice the fear no longer has any more power over you, and the more time you can spend on your interior life, bulletproofing your mind set, bulletproofing your emotions, taking care of your physical life through fitness and the proper nutrition and getting enough rest, and the more you can actually strengthen your spiritual core, so you’re living for a cause larger than yourself.
I mean, Martin Luther King, Jr. said, if you have not discovered something you are willing to die for, then you’re not fit to live. And if you want to be a titan in business, just imagine if you have developed this compelling cause that is so much larger than your own ego, something that is so massively attractive to you as a human being, that you would take a bullet for it. You literally will be undefeatable.
