Show Up Everyday and Breathe

Back when I used to run large underground utility jobs (read pipe installation) I would repeatedly get a question like, "What do I have to do to get ahead in this line of work?"

My answer would invariably be, "Show up and breathe!"

Really it should have been, "Show up and have a great attitude. Listen to what I tell you to do. Do that. If you have a better way to do that, tell me first. That way we will be working together in the same direction."

Here at the Wealthy Affiliates Community, I would say much the same.

1. Show up every day if possible.

2. Breath..... some thoughts and input into the community.

3. Study the training and put it in to practice.

4. Repeat daily.........

It's really not difficult. It's just a habit of activity that after a month will become a fixed way of life. It is sort of like a real job, except that we are the bosses.... No one will fire us if we don't show up. But the great benefit comes when we do, and do a lot of heavy breathing!

Just sayin

Thanks for the great advise! I seem to have so many distractions and then it seems like I can't remember anything and start questioning myself and if I'm doing things correctly. All I know is I will not give it. I must push forward!

Great post! Our ability to achieve the success we seek comes from consistently repeating simple steps that move us in the direct we what to go. This can be very hard, but one major key is never give up, and never surrender.

yes that is so true as long as you breathe and have a great attitude you can succeed all the best

excellent reminder to self - thank BDF

Well said Fred. I show up and breathe, do something everyday now for 4 months. It has become a habit to open WA and do something every day. I know it will pay off in time. Just keep breathing BDF.

Do you have running sand over there? We were building a piered crossing over deeply embanked river to run a large water pipeline. The first pile was located, the pile driver made the first whump and the pile disappeared into the river bed completely. That was a breath of fun for sure.

We call it quicksand or sink hole. Entire houses have been swallowed!

it's not quite the same but almost. The neighbours (not nice) didn't do any geo tests before they put their pool in. One day it was an inground pool. When the sand was disturbed it all ran away and left the pool (there was rock and clay at supporting the bottom. You needed a ladder to get in until they fixed it.

Just keep chipping at it, it will repay you.

Nice short easy advice that can't be argued with.

Excellent advice!!

We miss lots of opportunities JUST because we weren't there to receive them!
