Dean Graziosi, in his book "Millionaire Success Habits," emphasizes a unique perspective on struggles: What if all your challenges are actually designed to demonstrate your worthiness of success? It's a different way of viewing adversity.
When you face difficulties, consider the emotions associated with them—feelings of unfairness, frustration, or the belief that it's happening more to others than to you. Instead of dwelling on these emotions, imagine your struggles as a tax on success.
Life conducts occasional audits, checking if you're in alignment with your goals. Sometimes, life tells you that you're worthy, while other times, it points out areas where you need to keep paying the tax.
Even during moments of frustration, tell yourself, "I'm just paying a tax today." The more you invest in overcoming challenges, the greater your eventual success.
Look at successful athletes who pay substantial taxes because they earn big money. Your focus should be on positioning yourself for success.
Furthermore, what's the benefit of judging your situation and adding a negative narrative? It's unproductive and emotionally costly. Doubt, fear, and hopelessness may arise, but let those thoughts pass without giving them more attention. Instead, affirm that you're paying a tax on success to prove your worthiness.
So, on days when you're frustrated and success seems distant, remember to do your part, pay the tax, and keep moving forward.
