The End of Self-Sacrifice; or Paid to Exist is LIVE

SacrificeSo many people don’t do what they love for a living, because they think they don’t deserve it. It’s more important for them to sacrifice and deliver value to others, than it is to value themselves.

That’s the typical puritanical mindset. Work for others’ benefit, get a paycheck (to make it seem like you really got something out of it), then suck it up.

This is how this paradigm works:

  1. Work to deliver someone else value, while doing something that we don’t enjoy (self-sacrifice).
  2. Get a paycheck, and then trick ourselves into believing that the paycheck is enough to make up for the fact that we don’t care much for what we do.

Well, it doesn’t have to be this way anymore. You don’t have to sacrifice your self.

And the good news is, when you actually care about the value you deliver, you can deliver more of it and do it better.

I’ve seen too many people do this, and it makes me sad.

I’ve seen too many people sacrifice themselves, for someone else’s benefit. And while altruism can sometimes be good, at some point it becomes poisonous to the giver.

If you’re in this rut, I’ve designed a program to help you opt-out of this win/lose situation. You can give other people value, and do what you love at the same time. In other words, you can get paid to do what you love. You can get paid to exist.

It’s time for a new paradigm.

The doors to this program opened up yesterday. A lot of people have signed up and my inbox has been flooded with questions about this program.

Would you like to learn how to create an income doing what you love? Go here, take a look, and sign up if you think it’s right for you.

If you have any questions about whether or not the program is right for you, I’d like to you to email me and let me know. I know a lot of people so far think this is a great program, but they’re not sure if it’s right for them in their specific situation. So, if you have any questions or specific concerns, I’d like to answer them for you.

Enrollment is now open, but it is limited to 50 people. And the enrollment will close on Sunday, October 11th.

If you want to make sure you get in, and actually make this happen for yourself, once and for all…

Go here to sign up now.

    Hey Jonathan,

    People need to give themselves permission to be awesome. You’re right on saying how some think they don’t deserve to get get paid to do what they love.

    If they can picture themselves doing what they love–REALLY picture being who they want to be–the hardest (and easiest) step of breaking that psychological barrier is accomplished.

    Congratulations on launching your first coaching program. Seems like a genuine and useful assist for those who are either having trouble giving themselves permission to be awesome or struggling with taking the steps to actualize it.

    All the best,
    Oleg

    It seems to me that people only give themselves up to other in exchange for a paycheck because they see no other way to make a living. So also congratulations on opening the door and showing people that there is another way.

    Hello Jonathan,

    Great work with your launch and everything. On quick question if I may, how big was the Illuminated Mind Comunity before “The Zero Hour Workweek” ?

    I would really like to know the marketing effect of this amazing free material that you put out.

    Thanks and keep it up!
    Paul

    Hey Jonathan,

    I’ve finished reading your latest eBook “The Zero Hour Workweek”. It’s brilliant! You’re right to say that there’re too many people who are afraid to do what they love or that they’re simply too sceptical to believe it’s possible. I’ve met many of these people personally and it drives me nuts at times.

    I think there are only 3 reasons why anyone should stick to their job. And one of those reasons is you’ve got to absolutely love what you’re doing. I just wish all these people would come to read your book.

    Congratulations on your coaching programme launch! I’m glad you’ve developed a programme to help people get over the barriers to start following their passion. I’m sure you’ll be doing people a great service. I wish you all the success!

    Cheers~

    Mark
