When I first met Kevin Hogan, I would often start projects in a blaze of energy and exctiement. I would work long days and long nights getting things done and planning out each step in detail.
And then, as the project started to get closer to completion, I would lose the passion just a little at first, and then a little more, and before I got to the finish line, I would find another project to get all excited about and begin the process anew.
This behavior leads to a lot of very long days, a lot of hard work, and a large pile of unfinished “projects”. And do you know how much value is generated from unfinished idle projects?
Zip. Zero. Nada.
This wasn’t the case for me with everything. I have ran my own successful business with a co-owner and we have done well. I have a great family with three kids and we have been able to do so many great things as a family that have required focus and effort. But in some areas of my life and some types of projects, I seemed doomed to remain incomplete.
Then I met Kevin Hogan through a teleseminar he did on “The Secret”. This hugely successful book really ticked me off, and I searched for kindred spirits to discuss this abominable concept with, and I found Kevin. And then I started to buy his programs, starting with “The Three Disciplines” and progressing through “Lifestorms”, and then everything he has recorded and written.
And for the first time I understood the concept of Self-Sabotage. And how our brain actually works against us to shut down our dreams. And understanding what I was up against changed everything.
I have for a long time played around with the idea of creating a product to help small corporation owners to keep track of all the record keeping they need to be doing. Once I identified the self-sabotage, I was able to dust off my abandoned project file and start working on it again. And six months later I had finished the product (Phase 1) which I call CorporateVeil Pro and in July/August of this year I had 33 people in all sorts of businesses take a “Test Flight” with me and we went through the system together…
I got rave reviews about how easy-to-understand it was, and it has inspired me to do more of the same type of products to help small business owners cut through the garbage and get to the clear, concise, step-by-step truth of business matters…
I’m not working any harder, I’m just getting things “finished”. And that, my friend, makes all the difference… Thanks for the insights, Kevin Hogan!
