A short conversational excerpt from the YouTube video "Set Yourself Up To Win!" (created/uploaded by Catherine Bell) where two speakers discuss how struggle builds capacity but poor habits—procrastination, avoidance of finances, and delayed decision-making—compound negative thinking and anxiety. The dialogue ends with a reflective question: do you set yourself up to fail or to win?
The benefit of the struggle because it's only inside of the struggle that we develop the muscle to be able to fly.
And a lot of people can relate to that. But what ends up happening is they, they. They compound everything. They compound their lack of creativity and the negative thinking. But I also realize that when you don't handle your business, when you lack the ability to make decisions, when you're afraid to look at your checking account, when you're, when you're not paying your bills on time, when you're, when you're allowing things to just get to the 11th hour before you do them, well, then of course you're going to have negative thoughts because you've created this space of. This anxious space of it's got to get done now or else. But you've had months to get stuff done. I used to be the 11th hour kind of guy.
So do you set yourself up to fail or do you set yourself up to win?
When that instance, they're setting themselves up to fail. But if you plan, then you'll win.
