Addicted To Growth

Mihaela and Coach tagged me to write about the little secrets that have helped me to succeed. Well, first of all I´m not quite sure if I am successful but I don´t want to look too decent here so I will give it a shot.

I will tell you my first though when I asked myself this question: "Hmm...what has helped me to succeed? It must be my curiosity to life. My love to fear.  My addiction to growth.

When I talk about growth I mean personal, mental & spiritual growth. I talk about what´s happening in the inside not the outside world. I´m not too interested in money, fame & wealth - I am interested in the rush and the vibrating feeling of learning and teaching. I´m often called "talented" and "gifted" when it comes to learning something new because I make very fast moves. I am NOT gifted or special talented. But I have a little secret and I´m about to reveal it to YOU ( although I believe you will be disappointed):

Let your fear show you the way!

The most important lessons I learned in my life is that my fears are where I have to go to. It´s where all my potential is buried.
Every time I´m thinking about doing something new and feel this certain response within myself ( fear of failure - fear to change) I know what to do. GO FOR IT!

That´s the reason why I started Supercool School ( and believe me I was afraid)!
I was the anti-geek. I spend full 5 minutes a week on my computer ( today I do about 19 hours a day). I didn´t wanted to do it BUT I knew in the minute I felt my inner ( very strong) response that I had to GO FOR IT!

Ask yourself this question: "What am I afraid to do in my life?" and then go and freakin DO IT ( I told ya that you might dislike my secret - you had a chance - now you have to GO FOR IT ;)!

I would love to know what Jonathan, Ilker, Jim, MrBiggs,  Mother, John and Erek  have to say about their success secrets.

Sure you are successful! Look how many supporters you have for your project!
And what a great entry! Kudos to you too! It's not so easy to admit our fears...

Is this a meme? It is.. isn't it! :)

Well.. like I always say, the secret to success isn't actually a secret. Everyone knows content is king! I already posted how my content was successful.

If you are not successful despite your great content, then perhaps your blog needs some recognition.

I hope this was helpful. I would have blogged about this hadn't I already said what I wanted to say. Really..
