It's Hard To Be Humble When You're Perfect In Every Way

I can't wait to look in the mirror, I get better looking each day..........
(apologies to Mac Davis)
  • I think the solutions we provide for our clients are the perfect solutions.
  • I think we do a great job.
  • I can honestly say that when a prospect rejects our proposal my first thought is "Oh bad luck. They don't realize what they're missing out on."
For some reason I've always had this insane, unbreakable belief that I can do anything.

I have absolute confidence in myself.

Some see this as arrogance, over-confidence, being completely up myself, whatever.

Some people get mighty angry when I even speak about having this confidence in myself.

I Don't Care What You Think


But you know? I don't care.

I don't care because, as I've built my business over the past 10 years, I've needed this confidence in myself and what I do to survive.

This same stupid self confidence has been the same self confidence that kept the wolf from the door on many occasions.You have to believe you can do it

In business, like life, you'll:
  • get rejected,
  • get laughed at,
  • be ridiculed,
  • deal with rudeness,
  • deal with idiots.
You don't have to be like me and be, and I quote: "An arrogant, obnoxious dickhead", but have confidence in yourself to accept the criticism, the rejections and the put downs and continue on your path to success.

Business is hard.
Life's hard.
Believe in yourself and what you're doing.
Don't let others get you down.

You have what it takes

Cheers

Brendon

P.S: I'm now an old man of 42. For those who don't know the song the heading alludes to, here it is. Take it away Mac:

I bet that is your ring tone.
Now, now Brendon. What have you been told about using big-boy's words? Even if you are 42!

Good point though - ignore the detractors or they might pull you down. Your success speaks for itself, and your entitled to be proud and to shout and boast about it at every opportunity.

Can't help wonder what prompted such a post!
Great advice Brendon. Thanks!

Man... That is some hair!
