EP85: Getting Unstuck

On this episode of The Wednesday Call podcast, Andy Albright covers how you can get unstuck, more contests coming your way via The Alliance and some other big news that you don’t want to miss! Andy announced a number of different contests being held during the next three months. To learn all about the contests, visit www.NAALeads.com/contests. Do you ever feel like you can tell everyone else the right answers, but you feel terrible and you don’t know what to tell yourself? People talk themselves into quitting! I have found this … what we have built so far is with very imperfect people and we are going to need more of them to get bigger. Yes, we have to get better. This is our challenge. It is not negative. We avoid the negative. What are you going to do with your time? How about staying off of social media? That will free up some time. A lot of time! Too many people think social media is great. Reading is greater than tweeting. Too many people think social media is educational. They should be reading books and listening to great audios. You don’t need to believe everything you hear a person say. You can, however, bank on what they do repeatedly. Have you heard the story about the kid, who got on the potty? He wanted to know what it was like to be high on pot (the potty). What would you do with that time? Plan, Plan, Plan!!! Success takes time. We are in a race against time. If you want to get things done, it needs to happen now. You can’t wait 50 years to be successful. You can’t get any time back. You can always make more money, but we are all in a race against time. Focus on the positive and do things that move you toward a goal. It is all about having a plan. It takes people skills. It means being nice. It takes performing skills. The DO! Plan and Execute. Are you doing the basics? Get good at the basics. Recruiting, referrals, everything. Do it all to get great. What do you want to do five years from now? Who do you want to be five years from now? The answers to those questions should determine what you do RIGHT NOW! Move with a sense of urgency. Reality is a leader’s best friend. You have to start now. Start with productivity items. Don’t wait five more years. It has to start now. Get busy. Start doing. Stop working on things that don’t matter. Decide what is important and focus on that. Do what has to be done to get you to where you want to be in five years. Do it now! Reality survey plus urgency equals a dream building session. When you dream build, you start to ask “how.” Once you have a dream, then you start planning how, you plan and do and you start to “get.” Where are you now? Where do you want to be? What you say is what it is. What you decide is what it is. Make a list and be simple. We have open slots for 33 people who want to help us find 300 winners. The key is to pour into a few that want to make a difference in the world. It is not all about the money. There are three big things happening at The Alliance. We are finding people with talent, skills and a sense of community. Those things lead to having the right heart that it takes to win big. We are looking for people with more stickability than quitability. We want people who are leaning in and following the playbook. What you do will be copied by others. There were 320 million people in the United States in 2014. The Alliance is looking to find 33 people who are fanatical about winning. www.AndyAlbright.com @AndySAlbright www.NAALeads.com @NationalAgentsAlliance @NAALeadsTheWay #TheAlliance #DoTheDo
