Mindset Explosion For people whose life looks fine but no longer fits. I'm Matt Rudman, coaching since 2005, and I left engineering because something had to change.

Practical ideas to reset, rebuild and move forward, without blowing your life up. The rising Tide raises all ships.... I truly believe we have so much to give the world, it comes from within and it starts with ourselves. We all have the potential to live our dreams, do the things we thought we couldn't and take full control of our own lives. Sometimes we just feel stuck. All it takes is that first step.

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝗼𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗶𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗿𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗰𝗲.

You sit at work thinking, "I'd love to be doing something else... but what else could I actually do?" So you decide you're not ready. Another course first.

Most of what you need, you build by doing it, and the job you're in can pay for that.

What's the one thing you think you need to learn first?

𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗰𝗸 𝗶𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗷𝗼𝗯 𝗯𝘂𝘁 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝘃𝗲?

Most people think "not ready" means another course or another qualification first. It doesn't. It means practice, and the job you're in right now can pay for it.

In 2005 I went from electrical engineer to martial arts instructor to business owner. New video: the five skills that made that move possible, and a low-risk way to build each one without quitting.

Which one do you need most?

𝗜𝘀 𝗶𝘁 𝗮 𝗯𝗮𝗱 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵, 𝗼𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗶𝘁?

A bad patch has a reason, and it passes. Outgrowing something is different. The feeling keeps coming back, even when things are going well.

Which one does it feel like for you right now?

"I should be happy with what I've got." A lot of people use that line to keep themselves exactly where they are.

Wanting more doesn't make you ungrateful. It might just mean you've changed since you built it.

Do you ever feel guilty for wanting something different?

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲. 𝗦𝗼 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗳𝗶𝗻𝗲?

The job, the house, the income. Nothing is obviously wrong. So you tell yourself you should be grateful, and stay exactly where you are.

Feeling stuck when life looks good doesn't mean something is wrong with you.

What's the one thing that looks fine on paper but doesn't feel right anymore?

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗿𝘆 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝗽𝘀?

When I asked what's stopped you making a change, every answer was the same: fear of getting it wrong.

But a flop isn't a verdict on you. It's information about the idea. Test small, and getting it wrong just tells you what to change next.

What's the one thing you're scared of getting wrong?

𝗔 𝗳𝗹𝗼𝗽 𝗶𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝗮 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗱𝗶𝗰𝘁 𝗼𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂.

Last week I asked what's stopped you making a change. Every answer was the same: fear of getting it wrong.

So today's video is about what to do when it does go wrong, including a business I bought that didn't work out.

What's one thing you tried that didn't work?

𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁.

It's easy to fall in love with an idea from behind a desk. You read about it, watch videos about it, and it feels like progress.

But it's research, not testing. You only find out if you'd enjoy the work by doing a small piece of the work.

What's one idea you've been researching for too long?

Fear of getting it wrong.

I get it. When you've built a career and a reputation, it feels like there's more to lose.

On Thursday I'm sharing a business I bought that didn't work out, and what to do when something flops.

Is that what's holding you back?

"𝗜 𝗵𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗱𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀" 𝗶𝘀𝗻'𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲. 𝗜𝘁'𝘀 𝗮 𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗮𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀.

Test it small, and there are only two outcomes. You love it and give it more time. Or you don't, and you've ruled it out without quitting anything.

Both are progress.

What have you ruled out that taught you something?
