So How Does An Insecure Seventh Grader Help You Define Successful?

 

So entrepreneur do you have any kids? Or maybe you’ve got immediate relatives (a sister or brother) that has kids. If not, remember when you were that extremely shy and totally insecure lowly seventh grader?

Yea that person. Remember how incredibly intimidated you were to be the part of the lowest group on the totem pole, in (of all places) junior high school? It was down right scary wasn’t it?

Because here you were (with your friends) no less than five days per week, facing those big bad (and let’s be brutally honest) sometimes more than a little rambunctious  and just short of occasionally rowdy (at what ) appeared to be on the surface anyway, totally confident eighth and ninth graders!

At times it was down right scary, remember? Anyway, did it or has it ever occurred to you, that (believe it) or not, those lowly puberty stricken and totally insecure seventh graders can be extremely helpful,  when it comes to how (hopefully) going forward, you and I properly define successful? 

Nod your head cadets, because it’s true!

 

So How Does A Totally Insecure Seventh Grader Help You Define Successful?

Okay, so here’s the deal (already), you see that extremely or slightly shy seventh grader when they’re away from their closet friends and or other immediate family members, they’re constantly struggling with a ton of personal and psychological issues! You know what I’m talking about!

After all, their bodies are changing, and their voices (this part is true for young boys anyway!) are starting to change as well.

And at different rates and stages mind you! So while  some friends clearly are advancing faster in their development than others, this difference in varying stages of development really weighs heavy on their minds!

They’re not sure if they even measure up to their peers yet! Because you see, to that slightly shy (or downright) awkward seventh grader, at least five days per week, they see those totally confident ninth graders and occasionally cross paths with those totally cool eleventh graders that are already in high school!

And man, look at them, they’re practically grown! Some of them are already smoking like chimneys!

I mean, they’ve got their own cell phones, they’ve got (in a lot of cases) a drivers license! Their own cars!

They sit and text friends, family and probably (in all likelihood) either their boyfriend or girlfriend etc! They listen to their own style of music, they may even already have after school part time jobs! And they’re so much bigger, and mature and so outwardly confident, right?

They watch all kinds of cool stuff online (without) being monitored by their parents or guardians with their phones, notebooks and tablets etc! How in the world can a lowly, puberty stricken and totally insecure seventh grader possibly compete with all that?

Defining Successful Is Really All A Matter Of Having The Proper Attitude And Perspective!

Well, guess what? To that extremely shy, confused and totally insecure four grader, that puberty stricken seventh grader is the bomb! After all, they’re already in junior high school!

So how cool is that? And their Mom & Dad or guardian no longer packs their lunch for them! And some of them (if not most!) have already got cell phones and they text their best buddies, sometimes even during class! Say what?

So that shy and often frightened fourth grader tends to look up to and downright admire that lowly seventh grader! Okay, so what does all this have to do with how you (hopefully going forward) define successful?

Very simply. The very next time you get totally down on yourself (because) to date, you’ve only got 97 opt ins on your email or mobile marketing list, after 13 have already unsubscribed! Or to date, you’ve only got 38 blog post (or less), and have no clue what to write about going forward!

My friend, (fellow entrepreneur), rest assured that you’ve got 97 more opt ins. ( Or X number) more than literally millions of others that are just trying to get started online! And are totally clueless and downright terrified of trying to market online!

You’re Definitely More Of A Potential Pro-active Leader than You Currently Realize! (or Dare To Give Yourself Credit For!)

(So even if you currently only have 13 opt in subscribers after three have already unsubscribed! You’ve still got 13 more than literally millions of others!)

And you most certainly have 38 (or X number) more blog post than 99% of most beginners do! So don’t focus so much on the man or woman that has 10,000 opt in subscribers (or more) and has already earned multiple six or seven figures etc!

Because that’s not your true target audience per se! No instead, just like that slightly shy and semi awkward, puberty stricken seventh grader, you need to be offering assistance to those shy and slightly confused 4th, 5th and six graders!

Help Others Overcome Their Doubts And Fears! (And Watch Which Direction Your Long Term Profits Start Constantly Flowing In!)

After all, you’ve already been where they are and where they’re headed! Right? Yep!

Translated: write some blog post on how you were able to (not only) overcome the fear of writing your very first blog post (and or) find the courage to do your very first in front of the camera video etc!

But more importantly, what have you done or what you do currently, to consistently generate fresh new blog post/video ideas etc.

And it won’t hurt if you share how you effectively dealt with getting your very first or second unsubscribe notice! And how you actually generated your very first opt in lead or how you generated your very first 500 or 1,000 followers on tweeter etc.

(And what those incredibly meaningful experiences have taught you!)

Don’t Be So Hard On Yourself! (Especially Since You’ve Managed To Overcome Several Obstacles!
