Dominate ONE thing – Elliott Hulse (@ElliottHulse) – #Entspresso


good morning believe nation today’s
messages dominate one thing over you
Elliott Hulse TV go I’m reading a really
fascinating book right now called the
one thing can’t remember the name of the
author right now but you can look it up
on Amazon and this author asserts and
and I found this to be true in my own
experience and that’s why I find the
book so fascinating he asserts that if
you put all of your eggs in one basket
like Andrew Carnegie once said and just
watch that basket grow you will reach
your greatest success and that basically
means you choose one thing and you
dominate that one thing and it will if
you choose the right thing and we’ll
talk about that a moment if you choose
the right one or what I’ve also heard
described as or called the Keystone
habit you choose the habit that’s
associated with dominating one thing it
will inevitably trickle over into
all-area other areas of your life you
will see success in other areas if you
just dominate this one thing it’s also
been described as the Pareto principle
or the 8020 rule that whereby all of
yours they say eighty percent of your
results will come from twenty percent of
your efforts the trick is to try to
figure out what is that twenty percent
require you know which one of these
things do i hack hack at you know put
all my time effort energy talent and
faculty into dominating so that it will
have a tremendous effect on everything
else if you look at the people who had
the most success in any field is because
of their ability to focus on what
they’re doing you set a goal for one
thing that you want to accomplish and
you don’t stop you don’t quit you don’t
get distracted until you achieve that
outcome and I see too many entrepreneurs
coming to me and say Evan I want to
diversify my income streams right I
gotta find other ways to bring in money
and is usually coming from two places
that I find one is desperation and
one is boredom and it’s talking about
desperation that’s the more common one
really is because you haven’t made
enough money from your passion from what
you’re really excited about from your
business and you have to pay the bills
right I gotta put food on table I gotta
pay for my internet bill right I gotta
pay for electricity all that stuff I’m
not talking about lavish luxury
lifestyle living just pay the bills
right and so the interesting thing is
you get forced into a situation we try
to find other businesses that you can
start and run but if you haven’t had
success with the business that you are
passionate about and that you know a lot
about and that you’re improving yourself
on then how do you expect to have
success and businesses that you know
nothing about and that you’re not
passionate about you’re doing it just
for the money you’re probably not right
and then you end up in this loop of
having to spread your time across all of
these different businesses and none of
them ever doing really well because
you’re doing everything in a mediocre
way instead of going all in on something
and being really successful at it now it
can take time to reach your goal and you
will have to learn and you will have to
get better you will have stumbling
blocks along the way and sometimes that
means you get desperate need to make
money the solution that I would have is
maybe a little off the wall from what
you might be thinking but it’d be to go
get a job go work for somebody because
the reason the work isn’t just to make
money and that’s the mistake most people
make they work to make money and that’s
that’s the worst reason to go and get a
job you get a job yes to make money but
to learn right look at your business
look at why it’s not working and see
look what’s the skill that you’re
missing what are you just not getting
and how can you acquire that by going to
work for somebody who’s going to teach
you right go find a job at a company
that that you want to be like in five to
ten years get the founders possible
learn from them you’re getting paid to
make mistakes to make connections to
understand how the industry works
meanwhile you’re still working on your
business every single day 30 60 90 120
minutes plus every single day to move
your dream for you’re still hustling and
so the solution isn’t diversify your
income streams and start other
businesses because it’s a desperation
play and you end up not getting to where
you want to go and people see taking a
job as a step back but it’s really not
if you’re learning through that process
I don’t think you’ll get a job at
McDonald’s lipping burgers right unless
you’re trying to start up
food chain go get a job where you going
to learn something and make money and
make connections and pour that knowledge
into your business to make you better
entrepreneur the second time i hear is
when people are our board really if you
dig deep down and why are they saying
that is because they’re bored with their
business and it happens to a lot of
entrepreneurs we’ve been around for a
while number of years maybe your
business has made a lot of money maybe
it’s just provided for you at some point
a lot of entrepreneurs get bored and
it’s often because usually this is what
happens you grow as a person right you
have different interests different
skills you have different habits you
want to explore different areas and when
you started your business that was all
aligned right what you were excited
about and passionate was aligned and
that’s what made the business come to
life but over time you went here and
your business kept going on that
straight line and the more time goes on
the more you guys diverge and the less
and less interesting your business
becomes the mistake is that your
business didn’t adjust as you adjust it
as a human being as you develop new
passions and interests your business
needs to sway with you your business
should always be a reflection of who you
are is individual right my business is
always reflection of who I am and what
I’m interested in I wasn’t doing YouTube
videos ten years ago because I don’t
even know if you to exist it if it did I
wasn’t on it I was doing only the
website and if I just stuck doing the
website then I would be pretty bored
right now and say I need I need
something new right the challenges you
want to have growth and if you feel
you’re not growing anymore in your
business then you seek it elsewhere as
human beings crave growth and so your
two options are one change your business
with you whatever you’re excited about
now go and do that or if it’s just if
it’s just you got to get rid of it you
know you don’t want to do it anymore you
can’t change it to match your needs then
sell it find somebody who can buy and
then you go off and start something new
because you just hanging on hanging on
hanging on to the business it’s not
going to grow anymore it’s going to
start off just going steady and then
over time it’s going to decrease because
you’re not putting the love into it you
don’t really care about as much anymore
you’re not innovating anymore and your
business going to start the decline so
you want to sell it now when the price
could still be something hi you get a
return on it we’re in
five years after it’s gone down you
won’t be able to sell it anymore sell it
now move on to something else always
follow your passion so the real power
the real success the real domination
comes when you focus on one thing and
see it through to its execution and if
you can’t then it’s often because of
that separation or because of boredom
and hopefully giving you some strategies
to be able to attack that in your
business in your life belief so the
question of the day today is maybe going
a little deep are you desperate or bored
in your business leave it in the
comments below and I’m going to join in
the discussion thank you so much for
watching have an amazing day continue to
believe and I’ll see you again tomorrow
