Burn Your Boats!

Burn your boats!

Many believe the Viking legend that proposes the Norsemen burned their own ships as they invaded a new frontier. Within that unconventional behaviour was the thought that taking such action guaranteed commitment to conquering the territory. The Vikings knew how the mind works. Retreating to a safe harbour when situations become difficult is something most of us are all too familiar with.

We know intuitively the right path for our lives. And while we all get off task and distracted by our work-a-day worlds and relationships that demand attention, we know when we are on course. Most of us are experts at quitting unproductive behaviour… because we’ve quit and then re-started that poor behaviour many times.

Here are the four ideas that will help you on your conquest to gain what is rightfully yours:

1 – Identify the major roadblocks
2 – Agree you have the ability to overcome any obstacle (Many times we created it)
3 – Surround yourself with people that support your dreams.
4 – Burn the ship… take away the fears and behaviours that allow you to retreat to safe and unproductive harbour’s.

Burning the ships is one of many legends of the Vikings (good and bad). We are responsible for creating our legend.

Set sail to new territory today… and burn the ship of self-doubt when you get there!
