Today has been very Calm...
Perhaps Too Calm.
Emails were Few.
0 Minutes in the High Stress Zone.
Received a Package Early with Equipment for a Certification I'm Starting Soon.
Got my Sister-in-Law to the Airport Smoothly.
Breathing has come Easy.
Overall, it was a Very Calm Day.
But there is Something Else that I Know...
Chaos is about to Explode.
New Years.
Everyone, Everywhere, is about to Strike Simultaneously.
Now, for me, My 2025 has already Started.
Every single thing I want to Work On Next Year, I have Started.
Projects.
Readings.
Certifications.
Daily Writing and Publishing.
I've been making Progress on All of them.
The Best Time to Start was Any Time before January 1st.
Now, if you haven't Started Yet, this is the Next Best Advice...
Start as Soon as Possible...
But Do Not Expect Gigantic Results...
At least Not "Yet".
It has "Nothing" to Do with You.
You're an Amazing Human with So Much Potential.
But the Reality is that On January 1st...
Chaos Breaks Out.
Everyone Will Be Screaming at the Top of Their Lungs.
They Will Be In Your Face...
As Well as "Everyone" Else's Faces.
What will this Do?
Cause Confusion.
Everyone will be Simultaneously Confused.
You will Hear Everyone Tell You...
You Need This!
This Solution Will Work!
You Will Not Be Complete Without This!
Everyone and their Mothers will be Talking Down and Up to You About...
The Newest Thing.
The Latest Thing.
The Breakthrough Thing.
The Oldest Thing that Everyone Forgot Existed.
Then, they will Try to Sell You On It.
Try to Convince You They Will Commit for the Full Year.
Give Project Updates Every Second Of Every Second.
25 Hours A Day, 10 Days A Week.
Because of All of this Chaos, there is One Thing You Can Be Certain Of...
You'll Barely Be Seen.
Unless You "Had" A Following.
Unless You "Started" Sales Conversations.
Unless You "Already" Began Progress.
If Not, then Few People Will See You.
Then, "If" They See You, it will still Get Drowned Out by the Hundreds of Millions of Others Screaming Similar Things.
Again, it has Nothing to Do with You.
You Might Be The Real Deal.
You Might Be Making Incredible Content.
You Might Be Best In Your Industry.
But It is Difficult to Be Heard and Build Trust in the Chaos.
It's a Part of Psychology Called Information Overload.
When People Have "Too Much" Information Strike Simultaneously, Our Brains Choose One Option...
Stop.
It's a Survival Mechanism.
Too Many Options Causes Excess Energy (Mg-ATP) Use.
Most People Are Too Low on Energy to Begin.
Their Brains Shut Down to Conserve Energy.
It's Not Personal.
It's Survival.
So, You'll Never Break Through During the Chaos.
But there's Good News.
You Do Not Need To!
The Reality is that "This" is Not the Time that Matters Most.
Do you Need to Move As Soon As Possible?
Yes.
But Not To Win "Now".
Let me Explain what I Mean.
To Win, You've Got to Play the Long Game.
Most People Will Quit Shortly After This Period.
They are in for the Wrong Reasons, as I Discussed Yesterday.
Many will get Deterred When They Fail to get Results Quickly.
They'll Quit...
Which becomes "Your" Opportunity.
When Everyone Else Quits in the Chaos, those who Remain have the Advantage.
Why?
People haven't Gotten what they Need Yet!
Remember, they were All in Information Overload.
They were in "Wait" Mode.
Until the Chaos is Gone.
"Then" they Start Looking for Who is Left.
For Who Didn't Give Up.
"That" is Your Time.
But Do Not Forget...
If you Wait to Start, You'll just Delay Yourself.
Success Requires Momentum.
It Also Requires "Trust" in Yourself.
Something You Will Never Obtain if You Do Nothing.
Others will Struggle to Trust You if You Fail to Trust Yourself.
So, Begin Now.
Develop Trust In Yourself.
So, this is the Perfect Time to Gain Trust in Yourself.
Why?
If you Miss (Which You Will, You're Human), No One Will Notice!
Everything Will Be In Chaos!
So No One Will Truly "See" It!
So Go Forward!
Get in Your Reps Now!
Start Getting Good During the Chaos!
Then, when the Chaos Dies Down...
You'll Already Have Trust in Yourself.
People who are Looking will "See" that You Trust Yourself.
You'll have a Track Record Showing that You're an Exemplar of Your Goals.
Even if You're Imperfectly Human (Which People Enjoy).
Which makes it Easier to Earn People's Trust.
With Trust, You Can Win.
So, Prepare for the Chaos.
It's Coming.
Settle In and Outlast the Chaos.
