It’s a Fight, But We’re Going to Find a Way to Win

In today’s episode, we’re diving into the reality of the battle every solopreneur and salesperson faces daily. It’s not about sunshine and roses, and while gratitude is important, there are times when you need to lean into your competitive edge, get a little pissed off, and let that fire fuel you forward.

Mental toughness is not just a trait, it’s a necessity in the world of entrepreneurship and sales. This podcast stems from personal experience and from the many one-on-one coaching sessions I’ve had with top performers across the country. It’s also a reflection of the battle for market share that I and many others are currently waging.

Whether you’re running your own business, leading a team, or just hustling to make ends meet, you’re going to face days where it feels like nothing is going right. But guess what? That’s when the winners separate themselves from everyone else. So let’s dive in.

The Reality of the Fight

Let’s face it. Some days, we wake up pissed off that things aren’t moving fast enough. Maybe you’re doing everything right—making the calls, setting the meetings, showing up every day—but nothing seems to be happening. That frustration is natural, and more importantly, it’s okay.

Most people let that frustration turn into defeat. They give up. But what they don’t realize is that their breakthrough could be right around the corner. The truth is, most people quit right before things get good.

The Power of Resilience

What separates successful people from everyone else? It’s resilience. The ability to keep pushing forward, even when it feels like you’re stuck in the mud. Every great leader, entrepreneur, or athlete has faced moments where giving up seemed easier than pushing forward.

The difference? They didn’t quit. Instead, they used that frustration to fuel their next move. You’ve got to do the same. Don’t let setbacks define you. Let them push you to the next level. When you feel like you’ve hit a wall, that’s not the time to stop—it’s the time to dig deeper.

Every time you refuse to quit, you’re one step closer to that breakthrough.

Tapping into Your Competitive Spirit

If you’re in this game, it’s because you have something inside you that most people don’t—a competitive spirit. Tap into that. When things aren’t happening fast enough, get a little pissed off, and let that fire you up.

Don’t sit back waiting for the perfect moment or for things to just happen. You’ve got to make them happen. You’re not just going to sit around and hope for a win—you’re going to fight for it.

And trust me, if you stay in the fight long enough, you will find a way to win. Because that’s who you are—a winner.

Conclusion

Here’s the bottom line: The fight is inevitable, but so is the win. The key is to stick it out when everyone else is ready to throw in the towel. Next time you feel frustrated, like you’re about to give up, remember that’s the moment right before the breakthrough.

Keep fighting, and keep pushing. The win is coming, but only if you’re willing to fight for it.
