Scarcity is a lie. Many of us are raised with the idea that there is never enough. Why? Because most people want the easy way out. They want to look around and agree to just follow the party line. They think, "Oh that person had a great idea for a company, but I couldn't do that". Well, guess what? That's your inner critic talking... and it's feeding you the biggest line of crapola you can fathom.

Excuse me if I rant a little bit today… I wish I had a dollar for every person who’s come up to me and said, “I just can’t think of an idea for a business. All the good ones are already taken.”

It’s amazing how close-minded we can be. We actually believe there’s a scarcity of killer  business ideas, that there’s nothing new under the sun to cash in on.

What a crock.

Scarcity is a lie. Many of us are raised with the idea that there is never enough. Why? Because most people want the easy way out. They want to look around and agree to just follow the party line. They think, “Oh that person had a great idea for a company, but I couldn’t do that”.

Well, guess what? That’s your inner critic talking… and it’s feeding you the biggest line of crapola you can fathom.

Entrepreneurs and intrapreneurs look at the world from a different point of view. They see something and say, “That’s inefficient” or “That’s broken” and “Hey, I could do that better” or “Why don’t we have a such and such?” Then they come up with ideas to address those issues directly.

And I’ve got great news for you–the pie is enormous, and it’s getting bigger every day. There are so many ideas and so much money–the Department of the Treasury is printing more every day. There’s a lot out there to be had, and don’t let anyone make you believe otherwise.

So, this week, make a point to look around and ask yourself “What’s broken here?” Make a list of 20 ideas. They don’t have to be long, drawn out business plans — just a thought. Then bounce your ideas off some people and gauge their reaction. But be forewarned — more than one of you may have the same idea. And that’s okay. It’s the follow-through and the execution that will set your idea apart from theirs.

And if you’re tired of being dragged down by OTHER people, come to my 7 Figure Business Summit and work with a room FULL of like-minded business builders.

The Summit is only TWO weeks away now 4/30-5/2.  So hurry! Get your seats before they’re gone. (As I write this, there’s only 30 seats left – and you can STILL bring a friend for half price. (My personal recession buster) — 7 Figure Business Summit.)

To your amazing and IMMEDIATE 7 Figure Success,

PS: IF you cannot attend my Summit for any reason, then by all means, grab my Results Now Webinar and get started – but I think you should ALL be at that Summit and give me a chance to see you and hear the extraordinary life that YOU want to build.
