When we're walking down the path of light on any one of these endeavors, and we hit a big Roadblock, a lot of times, most people perceive that is up, I failed. This obviously is the wrong path, I need to turn back and go on a different path, one that I'm not going to fail on because I hit the big failure down here must be the wrong way. So then you retrace your steps go back to zero, and you start down a new path. And then you keep going, and you hit another big Roadblock, and it's up. I failed on this path, too. Obviously, this was the wrong path as well.
And this goes on and on. And I have friends that have literally spent 1015 years is jumping from path, the path The path because what happens is every time they fail, they think that's the wrong path. But here's the secret. Look at this graphic here. On the left side, this is what most people believe that one path leads to success and one path leads to failure. But what they don't realize when you're failing, that means you're on the right path, fail, fail, fail, when that's how it happens.
You're gonna have to get past those failures. So when you start Feeling going down this path you need to keep going. And it's very easy when you first set out to say, Oh, yeah, no problem. I'll do it. Sure. But I'm telling you now I've seen it with other people who have gone down the YouTube path when when stuff is hitting the fan and everything is going wrong, your whole plan is just falling apart, you have to keep going.
Not only do you have to keep going, you have to keep going like everything's going great with a big smile on your face. You can't let your subscribers know that your rent is late. They don't care about any of that. All they care about is I want to see a great video or they're on to the next one. So you have to fake it till you make it essentially and keep that smile on your face and keep your channel going as if it's already making a million dollars.
