Are you afraid of hard work? Let’s be honest right now — really honest. I am in Vegas right now working with a client, looking at a lot of people who are afraid of hard work and looking for the miracle to happen.

Are you afraid of hard work? I want you to think for a second about all the things you have in your life.

How did you get them? Did you work hard for them, or were they handed to you?

Now what I want you to do is think about all the things you want. Next I want you to write down all of the excuses you have for why you don’t have those things in your life.

What are your excuses? Be really honest and write them down.

Let me tell you something. I work my ass off every day. I may not work many hours some days, but when I work I am 100% focused on my work.

I don’t pick up the phone and chit chat with a friend. I don’t have IM sessions or text sessions with anyone. I don’t talk to my friends via email.

What I do when I work is dial in completely to my work. The reason why I do that is because when you work really really hard, great things happen to you.

Do you know what annoys me the most, and where I am going with this blog? I’m glad you asked.

What annoys me the most is when someone emails me — not respecting my time or looking for real help via one of my products or wanting to really learn — and send me an email just like this one below.

“Give me a line I can say to a woman in these specific situations.”

They don’t say, “Hey David” and ask me a question. They don’t even sign their name. They do this, and they wonder why they’re lacking in social skills and can’t meet people?

I can tell you why they can’t meet people. It’s because if they could, they would know to start their email and write their email to me something more like this:

Hey David,

I know you’re a really busy person and I know you may or may not answer this. I’m not sure if you have a product about this, but I thought I’d see if you could take a moment and answer this question: Is there a line I can use in any situation to help me out in talking to women?

Thanks in advance,

Tom

An email like that I’ll actually read. That’s an email written by a person who actually has social skills.

The email I received is written by a barbarian. That person may as well get a club and hit a girl over the head to get her attention, because the way they behave is just like a caveman.

Here’s the bottom line: There is no shortcut to anything in life.

If you want anything in life, you have to work hard for it. You need to work your ass off and you’ve got to play hard.

I hate to say it, but hard work equals rewards. If you work hard and you work smart, you’ll actually have a hell of a lot more free time than you ever imagined.

If you want to know that secret, you’ll wait for a different blog. In the meantime, work your tail off and stop buying into all your excuses.
