Watch This if You Feel Lost or Overwhelmed in Your Business

I bet that a tremendous amount of you running your business have at some point felt lost, overwhelmed, confused. You don't know what to do. You're frustrated, you're trying to make it work, but nothing isn't actually happening. There's too much stuff going on. It feels like you're just constantly defeated, like nothing's going your way. You can't get clients. You do have clients. Something goes wrong or you're doing your first sales calls and none of them are closing. You're not getting responses on whatever the fuck you're sending. It's a whole colossal cluster fuck of stuff. It really just makes you want to quit and stop doing this. You don't know what to do with yourself now if you don't know who I am. My name is Daniel Fazio. I run a company called Client Ascension and Lizkit. Client Essential is a coaching company. Let's get is a software company. We make anywhere around like right now, like 1.2 to $1.4 million a month. And through Client Ascension I see hundreds of you guys all the time doing the same thing over and over and over again. The feeling of you being lost, overwhelmed and confused is not unique to you. This is a very common thing to occur and I know exactly why it happens. And it happens to me as well. So it's not just me preaching. I'm going to expl how I feel about things. Sometimes the reason why you'll get into this feeling, it's unrelated. They're piling up and it's uncertainty. Normally if you have a task to do, it's a pretty straight line. You have this task over here, this is step one of the task. And then once you do step one of the task, you do step two of the task and then what you do is step three of the task and then it's completed and congratulations, you did it. That's what kind of like a normal like 9 to 5 job would be. For instance, like you just have a specific task, you do the steps of the task and then it's completed. However, the problem when it's unrelated, like you're starting a business for the first time or you're operating a currently active business. Like for instance, you might need to film a vsl, you might need to do outreach, you might need to do Dream 100 DM outreach, you might need to figure out client fulfillment, you need to like figure out a sales call because you've never done sales call before and you need to like watch a bunch of videos. Unrelated activities that aren't the same task, it begins to look like this. This is task one. And then you'll have. Over here, task two, and then you'll also have task three. And it's like the completion of task one is contingent upon the completion of task two and task completion of task one and task three is contingent upon the completion of task 2 and task 2. And then the completion of task 1 is contingent. The completion of task 3 is contingent upon the completion of class 2. The arrows go in different directions. Different things from different tasks are required to complete a full task. This gets worse because when it's all unrelated and it's spider webbing like this, it's piling up. Not only do you have to do task one, test two, test three, you also then learn you need to do task four. And then, like, task two gains a new thing, task three gains a new thing. That's contingent upon something else in task four. And then, like, another thing pops up in task four, and that's contingent upon this. Over here in task three, all this shit, it's all contingent upon each other. And it's a giant spider web of shit. You don't know what to do because it's just too much. It's too unrelated and it's too spiderweb. This gets worse when it's uncertain. So I want to define uncertainty real quick and give you examples of what I mean specifically about uncertainty. What I mean when I say uncertainty is you don't know how to do it because you've never done it before. If I said to you, like, hey, you have to film and write a vsl, you have to make a landing page. You have to send 1,000 cold emails, automated. You have to get on a sales call. And if you've never done this before, like, if you've never filmed vsl, this is gonna feel uncertain to you. So, like me, where I've done it before, and then you, where you haven't done it before. My stress to do this thing, film and write a vsl, the line of stress is really not that much. But for you, it's like a lot. Your stress is up here. It's up to the max. Mine's like I've done before. It's just worked to me. But since you've never done it before, it's like five times as more stressful because you've never done it before. Now what you need to understand is that when you do it for the first time and you complete it, it is no longer uncertain. Once you have done it for the first time. So when you go over here and you have to make a landing page for the first time, it's five times as more stressful for you as it is for me. When you have to figure out how to send a thousand cold emails automated this is five to ten times more stressful for you than it is for me. When you have to get on a sales call for the first time, it is five times to 10 times more stressful for you than it is for me. What? You have to understand that you have a finite amount of mental capacity that you can expend per day. So imagine you just have like this bar of mental capacity. And then what happens is if I have to make a vsl, like I'll use this much of my available daily mental capacity. This is my daily mental capacity. And I'm going to express this like over here. This is your available daily mental capacity. And when you have to film a vsl, you use like all of it, like above your daily mental capacity. You use like a day and a half of mental capacity. So what does that mean? When you use more of your mental capacity that you have available available at any given time, what does that lead to? It leads to burnout. That's what burnout is. You're using more than your allotted available mental capacity available to expend because you've never done it before. That is the price you pay as a beginner. If it was so easy, everyone would be a fucking millionaire. But everyone is a piece of shit lazy bum and they don't do anything. They refuse to go above. They don't want to feel stressed, they won't do it. That's why they're poor. If you want to not be poor, you have to do things that are super uncomfortable. It's really funny. You'll see the kind of meme of like, oh, men will go to war or something like that. And then people will equate it to like online business. You're like, bro, shut up, you're not going to war. You're clicking buttons on the screen like, this is what they mean by it. This is what they mean by that. You are over expending your available mental capacity. That's what fundamentally what going to war is like the equivalent to you're not fucking fighting in a war. But you get the point, right? It's romanticizing it to invoke the motivation in you. You get what I'm saying by this? So how do you solve all of this fuckery going on here? All these tasks going on over Everything's uncertain for you in the beginning. Like, how do we make it so that this doesn't happen? I got a DM from someone inside of AI Assisted Agency, our program. And this guy literally said to me, he goes, I'm feeling overwhelmed. I haven't got results in two months. So you're like, daniel, he hasn't got results in two months in your program. And then the next fucking sentence this guy says is, I haven't done any outreach yet. No shit, you haven't got any results. You might also be thinking, well, Daniel, it's like your job to make sure he's getting his stuff done. We fucking did. If I go into his private channel, I look how many messages we've sent. We've gone on two, one on one calls with the guy and we've sent three, four, five check in messages every single fucking week. And the guy just like, doesn't respond to it. And I had to send a message to the guy. I was like, bro, like, this is your fault. There's literally nothing you could say to me right now. And he wasn't saying he wasn't getting results in a dickheadish way. Like, he was saying, like, I know it's my fault. Like, I haven't been doing anything. He wasn't doing anything because he was feeling overwhelmed. Why did this guy not send outreach messages? Why? We have every resource available to do it. We show people how to automate it. We show people how to use AI to fucking make the scripts and find the leads and make the dream. 100 deliverables. You can use the fuck out of AI. Why has this guy just not done it? It's so easy, it's so automated. But why hasn't he done it? Because he's up here and he has one task to do, second task to do, third task to do. It's too many things he's thinking of at once that are all uncertain and all unrel. There's different things he has to do. He's over here and he's got a little frowny face. This is a rock and this is a rock. This is a rock. This is a rock. This is a rock. Rock, rock, rock, rock, rock, rock, rock, rock, rock. There's fucking rocks everywhere around. These are all rocks. What is a rock defined as? A rock is a thing to do. It's an activity that must be done. It's something he knows he needs to do. It's something to learn, it's something to do. He's just buried under piles of shit to do in this position? How do you get out of this? How do you make this stop happening? Like me, as somebody who's experienced this, I still have this happen to me because I have list kit, I have AI Assisted Agency, I have Olympia, I have some other fuckery that goes on. I have my personal life, I have hella shit. And then there's like different activities to do within each of those businesses. So like we have challenges to do, we have webinars to do, we have VSL funnels to make. I have filming sessions for ads, I filming sessions for content. I filming sessions for BSL funnels. And all the copy needs to be written for this. And then some of the funnels break sometimes. And then like the sales team needs to be managed and the fulfillment team needs to be managed. Then I need to do client work and talk to clients. There's a lot of fucking shit. When there's hella shit that's piling on, what do you do? The answer is you take one rock at a time and you fucking remove it. You go one rock at a time. That's it. You take one rock, you get rid of it. You go to the next rock, you get rid of it. Go to the next rock, you get rid of it. You might only get one rock per day. You might only get one rock per two days or three days. You might only get like two or three rocks a week. But gradually, over time, the rocks are removed. And then what you find is that because all these rocks, they be become familiar, AKA not uncertain. So therefore, when you get those rocks again and you have your daily mental capacity load here, instead of it fucking taking this much all the way up to the top, it only takes this much per task because it's not uncertain anymore. You know how to do it. You figured out how to do it, you've done it before, you've been here before. You're not nervous about it because you know how to do it. Your capability of being able to remove multiple rocks per day increases. You have to understand that, like, you just need to get the concept of momentum. This is like a universal concept. That's one of the most important things to understand. For instance, I tell people all the time, hey, dude, if like you're signing clients right now, like, don't stop doing outreach. Like you think you should stop doing outreach to focus on fulfillment. You shouldn't. You need to keep your momentum. Momentum is one of the most important things to ever have in business. You need to keep your momentum. When you remove one rock, you build Momentum, emotional momentum. You feel capable of removing rocks and completing tasks. The next rock is easier to remove because the weight is lifting. The weight is lifting off of you for every rock you remove. Therefore every next additional rock you remove is easier to remove. This is a cascade. That's how it works. It gets easier over time the more rocks you remove. This is what you have to understand. You can't get trapped in this situation where you do nothing, because when you do nothing, more rocks pile up. And when more rocks pile up, it's heavier. And when it's heavier, it's harder to start. There's pretty much nothing in life that works without consistency. Let's just use the gym. You want to lose 10 pounds. One pound of fat is about 3,500 calories. You can go walk on an incline treadmill and burn about 10 calories per minute. If you held the same amount that you're eating per day right now, and you were eating at maintenance calories, you walked in the treadmill for 350 minutes, that would be 3,500 calories. Like, theoretically, that's 5.8 hours. So 5.8 hours is like 40 something minutes. You can't go on the treadmill for fucking 5.8 hours per day. It doesn't work. It has to be 40 minutes a day. You can't fucking go in the treadmill for 5.8 hours a day for 10 straight days and lose 10 pounds of fat. It doesn't work like that. It functionally does not work. The physics of that do not compute. But it should. The math computes like that. Well, Daniel, why wouldn't that work? And it's like, well, your fucking legs are going to fall off, your body is going to degrade and like fall apart. You're not going to be able to move the next day or you're going to be too sore. Like, you're literally not going to be able to walk. You'll be all sorts of fucked up. You're. But you can't do that 10 days in a row. You have to elongate it out over time. It needs to be done throughout time. It's small progress daily. It's also the same case with investing. If you put $500,000 into a brokerage account one week from now, you'll probably still have $500,000 like you fucking just will. Now, if your initial investment is $0 and your monthly contribution is $10,000 and you're going to do that for 50 months for the same $500,000, and then we'll ass like 8% return. It's kind of like 9% with dividends reinvested. So I'm going to put that you end up with 10k a month for 50 months is 575k. It's more fucking money. Let's compare these two. Okay, $500,000 with 0 monthly contribution for 20 years at a 9% dividend is 2.8 mil. However, 10k a month for 20 years at 9% is 6.1. So it's a fucking shit ton more money. By just being consistent, you understand that everything is a product of consistency. Like if we assume all of the skills to be good at business, like you, if you're running an agency, like what are the skills that you would need to become proficient at in order to make a pretty substantial amount of money? It would be 1. Lead gen 2. Sales 3. Client fulfillment slash ops 4. Hiring. You have to become good at this, this, this, this and all of these have like a million fucking subsections. So like lead gen, there's cold email, there's the, there's Dream 100 content ads. Each of these have fuck tons of their own subsections. There's just hundreds of different things that you need to get good at. This is time and then this is proficiency. You think it just is like, boom. It's a multi year process. And I understand particularly if you're young, if you're below the age of 30, I'm 28 right now. You hear shit all the time where it's like you only got a year left to make money or some bullshit like that. And it's like in a way, like, yeah, you need to have urgency but at the same time it's like, dude, it's not like you're not going to be able to make money fucking for the rest of your life. It just takes time. You have to get good at things very slowly. It just takes time to fucking learn things. The only way to do that is consistency. Dude, you just have to do something every day. Like the same fucking dude I was just telling you about. Like I'm feeling super overwhelmed. I'm just starting outreach. Fucking two months later. It's like, bro, if you had just sent literally like five per day for two months, you would have already sent 300 Dream 100 messages. You got to like really fuck some shit up to not get any responses from fucking 300. Like you would have probably got like at least 8 sales calls from that probably. And if you didn't get eight sales calls from it like you're fucking something up. So, so you just allow so much time to elapse, like doing all. Nothing. It's just like, it's just so ridiculous. Like you can't do that, bro. You need to constantly be just doing even just a little bit. Just, just a little bit. I'm 28. I've been consistently working out since I was like 16 years old. I've gone spouts of multi months, probably like eight months without working out at all. And then like sometimes like I'm pretty consistent right now, but then I'll go like a week where I don't work out. I was out like drinking and like that with my friends or I was like on a trip or something like that. I get back and it's like, I'm so lazy and I don't want to do that. That's like, bro, this took so much effort to do that. But it's like, I don't want to do it, but guess what? I fucking do it anyway. I do it when I don't feel like doing it. This whole bullshit around like motivation, it's fucking nonsense. You're not going to be motivated to do something. Like if you're watching this, like, bro, you need to just be a man. You need to be a grown up. You can be like 35 years old watching this and you can legitimately just like not be a grown up. You're so dopamine fried because all you do is fucking sit there and watch videos all day long. Even the idea of fucking doing something that requires any mental capacity is super strenuous and stressful to you because it isn't like brain rot. Put your phone down, recalibrate your dopamine levels and calm the fuck down and just be consistent. Consistency is not extremely high sustained levels of effort. That is not what it is. It is moderate levels of sustained effort. It's moderate levels of sustained effort. This isn't some fucking insane feat. It's moderate levels of effort. You could spend legitimately one hour per day on your business and in three months, months you could be making money. You could do that. That would work. So like, for instance, even if you're trying to lose weight, 30 minutes of walking will make you lose weight. Like you're not running a fucking marathon. You're just doing moderate levels of effort. It's like super important that like you recognize in yourself, like, are you capable of being consistent with something? You just need to have a moderate level of sustained effort. And if you can do that, you will be successful. You just will. It's just going to happen. Please stop being a fucking pussy about it. Grow up. Like, not to be, like, red pill fuckery, whatever. Be hard. Like, just grow up. Just be a man. Like, it's time to take some responsibility. Stop with all the little bullshit nonsense. It's literally nothing at all. It's not even remotely close to as difficult as you think it is. If you're going to sit here and, like, pout and moan about how hard it is. You are such a fucking baby. Like, you're such a baby. It's, like, repulsive. But you have to understand that that is, like, the most unattractive trait you could possibly have. That is repulsive to women. It's repulsive to me. Like, you try to have, like, a friend group of people who are successful, they find that literally repulsive and disgusting. Stop doing that. Okay? You've made an agreement with me now that you're not going to be a big fat anymore. All right, cool. If you like this video, leave a. Like, send it to somebody who you think needs to see it. But if you want to learn about the shit I sell, if you want to check that out, the links in the description go. Client Ascension. AI, you can go check that out. That's it. Peace.
