James Malinchak's The Top Eight Reasons Why People Don't Make It In Businesses Part 2 Of 5

By Stanton Harper


If you do not believe me about taking responsibility, take it from Larry Winget, the Pitbull of Personal Development who is blunt about who is responsible in your business. Larry Winget is funny, but he's also bitterly truthful. He's got books titled something like 'Your Kids are Your Own Damn Fault." Therefore, you can see he doesn't hold back. With regards to responsibility, he says, "The hardest thing you're ever going to have to do your entire life is wake up out of bed, walk to the bathroom, look in the mirror, and say, 'Yup. This is all my fault.'"

3. They are drama mamas.

The secret is that we should never do any of these 8 reasons in our life because they result in the drama mama situation. These people thrive on drama. They would like to create it wherever they are in life. By the way, I think some of you are going to be shocked at a number of the things I am going to talk about here regarding running a business and you think about running a business. Chances are if you find yourself in the middle of drama a lot, then you're likely a drama mama or you attract drama mamas into your life. Cut that out or cut them out. They won't bring good to you unless you own The Jerry Springer Show and have them on for ratings boosters!

4. They strive for perfectionism.

Perfectionism is a big reason to be held back. People who want things to be perfect are never done. Why? They are held back because it cannot ever be perfect. You can take the greatest novels ever written and find errors in them. Despite reprint after reprint, and diligence by editors, something always needs corrected. Perfectionism is a huge reason for delays on projects, proposals, book drafts, emails, etc. The perfectionist wants to say the right thing the right way, when all the person wants is the document! As we say here at James Malinchak International, 'Good enough is good enough, so get the document out the door!"

5. They cannot handle criticism.

Criticism is like putting a jigsaw puzzle together. It's like a puzzle because if you've ever put a puzzle together, there are 500 pieces laying all around the table. Seemingly, you search and find 499 pieces that do fit together except for the slot you need which has fallen underneath the couch. When someone walks in the room, they don't say, "Wow, what a magnificent puzzle, nice job on the 499 pieces!" They say, "Hey, what happened to the missing piece?"
