🥕Wait... You Didn't Do It!?

Happy Monday my ol Wise Carrot.

I hope you had a great weekend and ready for some Carrot wisdom.

In today’s read, I’m going to share with you the only 3 reasons why you struggle to get things done even though you said you would.

🥕Wait... You Didn't Do It!?

So back in 2021, I was really still new to the online space and hell, even more so the business world.

I remember working for a company called Remote Fit Pro who specialsied in helping online fitness coaches scale to 10k, 20k and even 50k per month with their businesses.

Now I first began as an appointment setter which means that I got paid a base salary plus commission on deals that turned into sales. On a good month I was making around $4000 which for someone at the age of 23/24 years old, having full flexibility and location freedom, that’s not too bad ey.

Anyways, during my time in this role, Co-Founder James Moody used to hold 1 to 1 meetings with me each week where we would reflect on my week and from there create primary and secondary tasks which needed to be completed with evidence for the following meeting held the week after.

Now most of the time I crushed the goals that were set for me however the times that I didn’t, I felt embarrassed and ashamed because I didn’t want to let myself down but more importantly at the time, James down.

Now when James discovered that I hadn’t completed the tasks which we had set out together the week before, he told one something that has never left my mind since.

He said…

“John, there’s only 3 reasons why you didn’t get your goals completed last week. It’s either due to time, commitment or skill. Now honestly, which do you feel prevented you from achieving your goals?”

Now I was never going to lie to James because first of all, he could tell as he was super clever and switched on, but second, I don’t lie and especially not to those I admire and respect highly.

Now after all of these years, why has that message remained in my mind since?

Well, because it’s true.

Now of course take away any extreme things that could happen, but on a normal day, these are the only 3 things that prevent you from getting things done.

1. Time
2. Commitment
3. Skill

You either didn’t have the necessary time to complete the task.

You didn’t show the level of commitment you needed to show to complete the task.

You lacked the skill to complete the task.

That’s it.

So next time you don’t get something done that you said you were going to, remember this newsletter.

Did you lack the time, commitment or skill to get the job done?

Once you’ve identified that, optimise and continue your journey.

I hope you found this valuable.

If you did please reply back with “value” and I’ll be sure to do more newsletters like this.

Thank you and talk to you next week!
