FM's Uncensored Opinion on Why You Won't Change
Sep 27, 2017Every day, just about, I sit down to write to you.
When I first suggest this habit to other teachers, they look at me in horror:
"What?! Write every day! I cannot do that!!"
But why not?
Because you have tired old habits and beliefs that crush your creativity, suck away your vitality and leave you cold and bare upon a rock of hard times.
I enjoyed writing that sentence! And still I believe it.
You speak every day. If I went up to you and said:
"Tell me an interesting story that happened to you."
You could. It might take you a minute or two, but you'd remember something. Somehow, that doesn't seem too much of a challenge to people.
But as soon as I suggest - "Write that down in an email, and send it to your fans." - all manner of objections start fluttering out of your mouth. It's crap.
FM gave three reasons why people don't change:
- Lack of motivation
- Fixed ideas and beliefs
- FEAR.
FM didn't put it as nicely as that. Instead, he called it laziness, prejudice and fear.
People resist my suggestion to write every day because of one, two or all three of those reasons. It goes like this:
They can't bother. There is always something better to do. If they can bother, they sit down and think "I am not a writer. I am bad at essays. I can't." and they don't write anything. And if they - FINALLY - do get a few sentences out, they worry: "Oh, people will think this is rubbish. They will be bored by me."
Do you see those three reasons working?
If you want students, then número uno is you be able to articulate your vision of the work - in a way that appeals to them. That ain't just going to happen - you need to practise. You also need to overcome with your laziness, your prejudice, your fears.
This is the work of ATSuccess. It isn't just about biz strategies, it is about mind-set. Change the mind-set, the strategies tend to fall into place. Of course that's the benefit of studying with me. I will call you out - IMMEDIATELY - on mindsets that are obstructing your ability to be a successful teacher.
The strategies are there and waiting to work - IMPORTANT TOO - once you've mastered your habits of body, speech and mind.
Just 5 days to before we start.
