  <title>Why are we getting addicted?</title>

  <title>How to get things done and achieve real progress?</title>
  <description>We all want to get things done.  As much as we can. And when we finish everything?    We add more and more... There’s no end to it. But do the things we do actually affect our progress? Or is it just an imitation of productivity - being constantly busy?</description>

</style><div class='beehiiv__body'><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Hey,</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It’s Alex.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">This is a slightly long <b>but important email</b>. It can save you lots of money and time when you would need a coach.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Before I went to study coaching for a few years…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I didn’t put deep thought into the meaning of coaching and how people perceive it, especially online.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">What I realized afterward is:</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Most coaches online aren’t coaches at all.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And sometimes… If they have too big an ego or too much confidence, they can create new problems for you instead of helping with the old ones 🤷‍♂️.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We all can be vulnerable…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Especially when we have mental pain or chronic inner issues that we are dealing with. At these moments, we can be so hopeless that we find ourselves in the hands of the wrong people.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And the last thing we need is someone selling us a <i>magic</i> solution that won’t help us.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Look…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">If it’s about business and doesn’t touch your:</p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Beliefs</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Emotions</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Traumas</p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">There’s no problem with that. Basically, it’s mentoring.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It can be great to learn new skills from someone who already has the results you want.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">The problem starts when “<i>a coach</i>” gives advice, educates you, and guides you when it’s about <span style="text-decoration:underline;">your personal inner problems</span>.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">These coaches don&#39;t know how to work specifically with you. They know how to give you a system <span style="text-decoration:underline;">that works for them</span>.</p><h3 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="heres-a-simple-guide-on-how-to-spot"><b>Here’s a simple guide on how to spot a &quot;fake&quot; coach online:</b></h3><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Let’s start with the basics…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">What is coaching, and why can it be the best thing for you?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">The main purpose of coaching is <span style="text-decoration:underline;">to help you achieve what you want</span>.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">To solve, together with you, any obstacle, inner blocks, or life situations that prevent you from being the best version of yourself.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">To take you from point A to B.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Coaching is all about improving how you see and interact with the world so you can improve your actions and results.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">A coach does this by working with your:</p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Behavior</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Beliefs</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Patterns</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Way of thinking</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And even the way you communicate with yourself (the words you choose when you speak)</p></li></ul><h3 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="what-is-coaching-not"><b>What is coaching NOT?</b></h3><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Today, when someone says: “<i>Let me coach you</i>”</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">People mean it as “<i>Let me teach you something you don’t know</i>”</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Or even worse: “<i>Let me solve your traumas because I solved mine</i>”</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">In reality… A coach isn&#39;t allowed to do therapy under any circumstances. It’s the fastest way to lose your license.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">License?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Yes… Exactly. Real coaches have a license.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">There are a few recognized coaching certifications:</p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">International Coach Federation (ICF)</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Associate Certified Coach (ACC)</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Center for Executive Coaching (CEC)</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">European Mentoring and Coaching Council (EMCC)</p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">For example, if a real coach wants to coach real leaders, politicians, or corporate executives, no one will work with them without one of these credentials.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>What else?</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Coaching also isn’t supposed to provide you with strict guidelines on how to manage your business, relationships, or life.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">A good coach learns to detach their mind in the session so it won’t interfere with what the client is saying. It’s called: “<i>Turning off your internal radio.</i>”</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">In fact…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">The less I know about your business or you, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">the better</span>. This ensures that the coaching sessions are free from my biased assumptions and that I can uncover your potential faster.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Because in the end…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">When you have an inner problem that you haven’t solved with a course, retreat, or workshop. Or when you REALLY want to achieve something in life.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>It’s NEVER about more information from the outside.</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It’s about information that can only come from YOU, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">from the inside</span>.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">The whole idea of coaching isn’t to solve your life; it’s to allow you to solve it yourself.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">A real coach is a professional you come to when NOTHING else is working for you.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It’s when you’ve tried listening to so many mentors, but nothing changes. Because, in most cases, it isn&#39;t about the &quot;tools&quot; or life hacks. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It’s more about YOU.</p><h3 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="im-inviting-you-to-apply-for-11-coa"><b>I’m inviting you to apply for 1:1 coaching with me.</b></h3><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Coaching That Doubles Your Productivity In 60 Minutes A Week.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">My methods help my clients enjoy:</p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Explosive business growth.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Winning habits and work routines.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Neuroscience-based brain & time management.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Turning big ideas into results, fast.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And… Getting rid of any inner blocks that cause self-sabotage.</p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Reply “I’m interested” to this email, and I’ll send you the details.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Take care,</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Alex</p></div><div class='beehiiv__footer'><br class='beehiiv__footer__break'><hr class='beehiiv__footer__line'><a target="_blank" class="beehiiv__footer_link" style="text-align: center;" href="https://www.beehiiv.com/?utm_campaign=0df40a61-7814-4080-8be3-5918aa8b38ab&utm_medium=post_rss&utm_source=alex_s_letters">Powered by beehiiv</a></div></div>

And at the end, you postpone half of your work to next week.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It&#39;s happening to all of us, including me.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>The reasons for this behavior pattern can be:</b></p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">A chaotic lifestyle</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Bad time management</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Or lack of personal management skills</p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">All these things are easy to solve.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">There are so many time management systems and productivity tricks on the market.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">That perhaps… You&#39;ll postpone the task of researching what is the best solution for you... 😁</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">During my 12 years as a Solopreneur, I read many books about productivity and tried many systems on myself.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Including the famous 🍅 Pomodoro technique...</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">But I was still postponing many tasks.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Why?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Read carefully…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We all postpone our tasks, NOT because of bad time management skills.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We postpone because of bad ENERGY management skills.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Being even more specific: <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Energy management of our brain</span>.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Our brain works similarly to your laptop.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">If you put too much on its plate, it can suddenly get stuck and ask for a restart.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And… If you don&#39;t take care of it for a long time, it can get stuck forever.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Like the Windows crash last week across the whole world...</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">In my coaching sessions, I teach my clients how to optimize their brain capacity in a way that prevents:</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Spontaneous &quot;crashes&quot;</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Or</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Overloads that force them to constantly postpone their tasks.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I’m using a 1-2-3 brain-level system and other techniques that can double your productivity. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Because at the end of the day...</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">The more you postpone your tasks, you are:</p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Less productive</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Achieve your goals slower</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And most importantly, you are losing momentum</p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>Today, I’m opening the door again to 1:1 work with me.</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Apply for 1:1 Brain-Based Coaching That Doubles Your

think most people may lose desire for their work at some point in their career.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">This moment... </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Where there is no energy and passion anymore to push and push in your business.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Let me show you what you can do in this situation.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Even if right now everything is great in your business (or life).</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">But first...</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Let me share a story of how I lost my passion.</p><h2 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="from-happy-digital-nomad-to-lonelin"><b>From happy Digital Nomad to loneliness and despair.</b></h2><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It was 3 years ago.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I was sitting in my favorite cozy coffee shop.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Checking non-stop Facebook campaigns of one of my clients that I had. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I just got out of a long-term business partnership with a feeling of betrayal towards me. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>I earned the amount of money that I had ever wanted.</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">But I had no idea what I should do next…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I got so used to working in a team that instead of taking a break from everything, I immediately started a new project with new partners.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And what, of course, happened?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">The project ended like a disaster.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Only after starting another 3-4 new projects with different people, ALL of which, of course, flopped.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I finally hit rock bottom and started to listen to myself.</p><h2 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="i-just-couldnt-live-in-a-lie-anymor"><b>I just couldn&#39;t live in a lie anymore.</b></h2><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I couldn&#39;t stand my day.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I couldn&#39;t look anymore at my laptop.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I was so sick of everything…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I was in such pain that the only thing I wanted to do was <b>run away</b>.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And this is exactly what I did.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Instead of getting into some nonsense project again just to make more money without any kind of meaning behind it.</p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I traveled instead.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Started a new relationship (and made like 2000 pictures)</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><span style="color:rgb(28, 28, 28);font-family:Inter, sans-serif;">I changed my country of residency.</span></p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I mean, I know that I got wild with my decisions…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>But I just couldn&#39;t lie to myself anymore that everything was okay.</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">So...</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I made so many different and new choices that I already forgot how I was when I started all these changes.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I even look different in the mirror (and no, it&#39;s not my haircut.)</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And now.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">When I look back on myself.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Sitting there… In this sad coffee shop doing the same thing without any kind of passion and desire.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>I realize how miserable my life actually was.</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Don’t get me wrong…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">On paper, I had everything. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">But inside?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Uff… like this part of Voldemort’s soul at King’s Cross station at the end of the Harry Potter movie.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>I had endless possibilities around me.</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">But It&#39;s like I couldn&#39;t see all the beauty around because of my deep pain of desperation and boredom from my lifestyle.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I&#39;m not special. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It&#39;s

  <title>How to stop overthinking with a help of a toothbrush?</title>
  <description>Overthinking is such a frustrating thing. It&#39;s one of the major reasons that can prevent us from taking action.  Instead of going out and focusing on what we want to do, we get stuck in our heads — including me.</description>

Checking Facebook campaigns of my client and trying to optimize them.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Over and over again. Every day. Analyzing the same numbers. Optimizing the same process. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Thinking and overthinking.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">You see… I was making a great amount of money for my online marketing skills.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>But inside, I was suffering...</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I didn&#39;t feel any joy anymore from what I was doing.</p><h3 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="i-was-lying-to-myself-that-everythi"><b>I was lying to myself that everything was okay.</b></h3><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">When I was going to the coffee shop, I always imagined myself in a different reality. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Different work, different people around me…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I wanted to do something more connected to people. To have a more social lifestyle and be less isolated in front of the screen. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>But I was stuck.</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I was stuck in my head.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I didn&#39;t know what exactly I should do, and I didn&#39;t know how to find the answer.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">With each new idea that came to my mind, instead of taking action, I was overthinking it and not even trying.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I felt burned out. I couldn&#39;t see myself working anymore without a purpose that I would feel connected. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And still... I wasn&#39;t doing any practical actions to change something.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Instead of researching what I could study. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">What could be the first step that would create a better reality for me.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I was wasting my time on social media and Netflix.</p><h3 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="i-was-numbing-my-pain"><b>I was numbing my pain.</b></h3><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">The pain of boredom, loneliness, and lack of meaning in life in general.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">The thing is... </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">When you lack money, you don&#39;t care about anything else except just surviving.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">When you have enough of it, you start looking for meaning.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And if you can&#39;t find it around you or in your job.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>Pain is inevitable.</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">All this unhealthy lifestyle and isolation brought me to an emotional breakdown.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">After the emotional breakdown came degradation.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Only after I changed my country, traveled, and met a new partner, I started to feel a new meaning.</p><h3 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="i-got-my-new-meaning-through-a-war-"><b>I got my new meaning through a war with myself.</b></h3><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It wasn&#39;t healthy, and I wasted lots of money and time during this process.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I think you can do better than me.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">You know why it took me such a long time to change?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">To realize that 90% of what I’m doing is never gonna bring me happiness?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>I was overthinking.</b></p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Instead of doing new things that could make my life better.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Instead of making new decisions that could open doors.</p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I would self-sabotage any possibility for a change. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It took me 2 years to decide to start learning psychology and coaching. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">3 years creating a solo project without any business partner. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I can give dozens of examples of when, instead of taking the first step, I was overthinking it and then did nothing. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">You see… Overthinking comes from our fears.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">A fear that we will feel <b>the pain of change</b>.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">So, we spend most of our lives afraid of making these brave decisions, even though deep inside, we know they can make us happier. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We have no clue how things could actually be if we weren&#39;t so afraid.</p><h3 class="heading" style="text-align:left;" id="we-think-too-much-and-do-too-little"><b>We think too much and DO too little.</b></h3><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We prevent ourselves from doing more by overthinking, and in the end, we do less…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">So the next time you enter your overthinking mode again, take your toothbrush to your job.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Why?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Because It&#39;s the silliest thing you can do, taking a toothbrush with you.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">(I mean just the toothbrush, without toothpaste)</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">For what purpose?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">This toothbrush is going to remind you how silly we all can be.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">An anchor to the idea…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">That there is no logic in taking only a toothbrush with you and walking with it during the day.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>Exactly like there is no logic in overthinking everything instead of taking action and learning from the process itself. </b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Do more. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Think less. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Would you like to stop overthinking and do more?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">If yes, consider going through some coaching with me.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:start;">Interested?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:start;">Reply to this email with: “<b>I’m interested</b>”.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:start;">And here’s what’s gonna happen:</p><ol start="1"><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">You send a message</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I ask you a question</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">You answer</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I send you some details…</p></li></ol><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:start;">And we start working together and you’ll finally start to see a change.</p></div><div class='beehiiv__footer'><br class='beehiiv__footer__break'><hr class='beehiiv__footer__line'><a target="_blank"

For the purpose of this email, let&#39;s call him Adam.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We have known each other for more than 20 years. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We talk almost every week to this day.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">We grew up together and know each other so well that we can understand each other without words.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">And yet, we are very different, especially in our career path choices.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Adam chose the corporate path while I chased freedom through an online marketing career for the last 12 years.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Adam worked hard in several companies while I traveled the world like a Digital Nomad, building my own projects and trying to figure out how to make money independently.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Adam became successful in his corporate career. He works in one of the biggest corporations in the country, which is, I would say, a dream corporate job.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I achieved significant success in online marketing and decided to shift my career to executive ontological coaching.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Both of us have achieved more or less similar levels of &quot;<i>success</i>.&quot;</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">But there is a big difference in our skill sets and how we approach life in general.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Now...</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Adam developed a corporate skill set that helps him navigate the corporate world:</p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">How to communicate politically correct in the company.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">How to sell yourself in an interview.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">How to work in a team.</p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">These skills help him flourish in the corporate world.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>But there&#39;s one thing...</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">He isn&#39;t happy, and he wants a change.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">He actually wants to move to another country. He would love to work less and to have time to see the world.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">But it’s hard because I got used to stability and a comfortable life. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Right now, he lacks the skills that can push him toward the new direction that he wants. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;"><b>So the reality is:</b></p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">He knows what he wants — to move to another country. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">He knows what he needs to do — to push himself, find a new job, start checking the visa process, and make bold decisions.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">But for some reason, he doesn&#39;t take the steps he should…</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Why it’s like that?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Stay with me, and you will understand...</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">What about me?</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Since high school, I&#39;ve developed a totally different skill set.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">I&#39;m a total beginner when it comes to the corporate world. </p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">In the last six years, I&#39;ve traveled to more than 20 different countries and pivoted in my online marketing career more than ten times.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Things in my life have changed so many times that I had to develop a very important skill — a skill that allows me:</p><ul><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">To live from one backpack.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">To work from any coffee shop.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Find common ground with different people and cultures.</p></li><li><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">To change my residency 4 times.</p></li></ul><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">In other words, through my &quot;<i>unstable lifestyle</i>,&quot; I developed an inner skill to be <b>adaptive to change</b>.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">This email isn&#39;t about proving that being a solopreneur or business owner is better than working for someone else.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It&#39;s not.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">It&#39;s about the skills we develop during our lives that help us get what we want, no matter the playground we choose to play on.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Working for someone else provides a layer of stability and safety that can make us so comfortable that we become resistant to changes <span style="text-decoration:underline;">we want and need</span>.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">Working for yourself creates an opposite reality.</p><p class="paragraph" style="text-align:left;">There is zero stability and safety at the start.
