Amateur vs. Pro
We are living our lives as amateurs. The simple solution? Turning pro! But turning pro is not for everyone and you have to be a little crazy to even try to do it. It's uncomfortable, it's messy, it's scary, and it demands lots of sacrifices. But turning pro enables us to really pursue our true self, our true ambition. Turning pro will bring clarity and hapiness into our lives. As Steven Pressfield wrote in his book "Turning Pro", here are some of the qualities of a real pro:
- The pro shows up every day.
- The pro stays on the job all they.
- The pro is committed over the long haul.
- For the pro, the stakes are high and real.
- The pro is patient.
- The pro seeks order.
- The pro acts in the face of fear.
- The pro accepts no-excuses.
- The pro plays as it lays.
- The pro is prepared.
- The pro does not hesitate to ask for help.
- The pro endures adversity.
- The pro is recognized by other pros.
I am asking you, when are you going to turn pro on your calling?
This is a short excerpt from the book "Turning Pro" by Steven Pressfield.
