The help you needed
Are you feeling stuck in your business or life?
Finding yourself jealous of someone or some kind of restatement because it seems so easy to some people around you?
You may have forgotten something important - you have people in your life who know and care about you.
Even if they aren't super close, they may be happy to help if you ask.
And you already have a "no". No is always the default without taking action.

You already feel stuck and are wasting time spinning your wheels.
What if you reached out to that successful person you know who is already living the dream you feel passionate about?
Maybe you've chatted before, or lost touch for a while, or they don't see you as a close friend now.
Making the ask could feel awkward at first.
But isn't it worth it if they could help unlock a door you've been dying to walk through?
I invite you to answer that for yourself because it's today's question.
plus, people don't think of you most of the time. They think about themselves.
This is one of the key principles from the classic book "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Napoleon Hill (this book needs a better name!) is that people love to feel important and talk about themselves.
If you give them that chance, they'll be thrilled and spill it. It will make them feel proud.
They'll be happy to be seen as experts and share their knowledge.
So go ahead, ask the question, or for their advice, or "worst", ask for help.
YOU WILL BE SURPRISED.
Maybe they need support on a project and you can learn from them. Or tell them you'd value learning from them directly.
We become similar to the people we are hanging around with...It's almost an automatic unconscious nature of humans.
Maybe they can connect you with someone who can help.
When you're stuck, go outside your comfort zone and keep your eyes open. Think through your network for talented people who inspire you.
I hope this empowers you to take action!
Reach out today and take that first step.
"Who do I know who can help me get unstuck?
