You Only Have a Lap When You Sit Down | Monday Mindset

We came to you live from the Settled conference on Friday, and I have been sitting with one thing Jason said ever since. Luke says give and it will be given to you, poured into your lap. But you only have a lap when you are sitting down. Standing up there is nowhere for the overflow to go, so every time somebody needs something you are pulling it straight out of your own cup. That is where resentment comes from. I have felt it, resenting the client who asked the fifteenth question this week, and underneath it is fear of losing them or of what they think of me. Sitting down is not laziness. It is releasing control. Then my one thing for the week, which is Enrique, a dry cleaner I met at a networking event who is completely convinced his is the best.

If you are not convinced yours is the best, nobody in the room will be either.This show is for general information and encouragement. It is not tax, financial or legal advice.
