7 Reasons Why Making Excuses Will Sabotage Success and Progress

Welcome to “No Excuse” Midweek Manna!

I hope you’re off to having an awesome week thus far. The weekend is behind us so I trust you’re out of the “let’s chill” mindset and back to grinding to make your dreams become reality so. For today’s midweek manna, I’ve got a personal message for you about the 7 reasons why making excuses will sabotage your success and progress, and, what you can do about it.

But first…

You see, Bob was in a wheelchair. Yet he paid over 5-figures to be at that conference because he committed to making at least $10,000+ a month in his online business so he can fund his dreams and passions, and make a lasting impact.

I thought to myself, “If Bob can be here in a wheelchair in his condition, push himself to type on his laptop, ask for help to move around, and still run a successful email marketing business, then every reason for why you and I fail is just an excuse. Period!”

That’s why today is a No Excuse Day.

1. Making excuses robs you of innate power to do anything worthwhile and advance toward your goals.

2. Making excuses zaps your confidence and creates inertia.

3. Making excuses makes you cynical, critical, and pessimistic.

4. Making excuses causes you to fear and doubt. A recipe for cowardice.

5. Making excuses casts blame on others and makes you dodge responsibility.

6. Making excuses causes you to make more excuses and can turn you into a chronic liar.

7. Making excuses will weaken your leadership and cause others to lose faith in you.

Seriously. Take ownership and do something drastic about your life, business, or ministry today.

Divorce your excuses for why your business, health, marriage, or finances suck!

Nothing will change unless you change. Stop waiting for the proverbial “ship” to come in. It’s not! Build your own ship.

As an author, speaker, pastor, and lifestyle coach, I hear excuses all the time. I have to especially kill them when they surface in my own life.

Because this I know, we can make up any excuse to justify or rationalize our weaknesses and failures. But even with those situations, champions focus on their strengths and succeed in spite of limitations and “justifiable” excuses.

Here’s a Midweek Manna Exercise you can do right now:
A. List 3 of your top excuses for why you are not where you are in any area of your life (Spiritual, Physical, Social, Financial).

B. List 3 things right now that you will do to divorce yourself from those excuses and instead be proactive.

That’s all for today. And remember Bob when your excuses try to resurface today.

If he can do it, so can you!

To your success,
Chance
