Getting kicked in the ball$ 🤢

Yesterday I had two very adult meetings.

I met with my account in the morning.

I met with my mortgage broker in the afternoon.

As a kid growing up, I was only interested in throwing a ball around and playing sport.

I didn't sit one economical or finance class in my life, so as I've grown older I have strived to increase my knowledge with investments and financial management.

Which, to be honest, I find incredibly boring but have forced myself to be interested in for the better of the business I run and myself and my wives lives.

You need to 'adult' yourself in areas of life you know you are 'adolescent' in, in order to move forward.

This has lead to TBA growing year after year and being able to buy our Sydney apartment last year with more coming in the future.

But seeing my broker and accountant yesterday, was a real kick in the balls.

I felt I could do better.

I felt like less of a man.

I felt I needed to lift the bar.

And that only came from facing my shortcomings, looking at the numbers and taking constructive feedback from professionals I respect and work with.

This is the only way to grow.

Look at your flaws, your faults and instead of being embarrassed and cowering to defeat, rise up and face what you usually avoid.

It's not nice to be told you can do better, but you can.

It's not nice to see you can work harder, but you can.

It's not nice to be told you're putting effort into the wrong areas of your life, but it's necessary for growth.

So here's a reminder from me to you.

You can do better.

You can work harder.

You can dig deeper.

You can out yourself in a better position than you are in now.

You can raise the bar.

And if no-one in your life is telling you that, you have to actively seek it out.

So if I'm going to be the guy that's going to tell you to clean your act up, like I was told yesterday, then I'll be that guy.

Its time to level up, it's time to face the fact you're living under your potential.
