Last week we finished by explaining how, when people have less problems, they broaden the ‘problems’ criteria so they can stay comfortable, as well as how My Drunk Aunt is hoping to meet a man the old-fashioned way.

Speaking of hoping to get locked in a tower while waiting for a guy singing on a donkey to come save her…

I was at a high-end hotel with a French friend who likes the finer things in life… here’s how his conversation with the doorman went:

Frenchman: Excuse me M’sieur, I would like some pepper sent to ma room.

Doorman: Certainly, Sir, black pepper or white pepper?

Doorman:

Everything you don’t measure is underperforming.    

Anyhoo…

Your one PROFIT ACCELERATION THING today is:

’10 Reasons 2026’

Every one of your prospects is working off a list of things they plan to accomplish in 2026.

I don’t need to see it to know their list is eerily similar to last year and the year before that…

… But they’ve never taken the time to compare.

Here’s a list of reasons your prospects will fall far short this year (same reasons as last year):

1. Addiction to instant gratification… otherwise stated as treating a marathon like a sprint.
2. They’re consumed with the ‘little stuff’ that doesn’t matter (what they’ll wear, what they’ll eat etc.).
3. Lighting time on fire doom-scrolling social media.
4. Staying in their head ‘deciding’ if it’s the RIGHT MOVE. 
5. Worrying about people judging.
6. Feeling selfish for wanting to change.
7. Telling themselves the ‘timing isn’t right’ because Christmas was coming up, Thanksgiving was around the corner, school holiday’s coming, summer holidays… and the list goes on. START.
8. Feeling that they’re unworthy and underserved.
9. They don’t surround themselves with people that can help.
10. This one needs to be the first and the last. Addiction to instant gratification…. otherwise stated treating a marathon like a sprint.

Your greatest successes come through other people… and the people that helped you get ‘here’ will likely not help you get ‘there’.

When I do a water fast, I create a list of reasons WHY I want to complete it and each time I get hungry rather than grabbing a chocolate bar…

… I read my list of REASONS.

Hunger subsided, and the bigger picture dominates the little picture. 

Create your list of reasons WHY.

This is YOUR YEAR and help your prospects make it THEIR YEAR to accomplish all their wants, hopes and dreams.

You got this.  

You heard it here first.

Now, pick up the phone and go help someone.
