THE 5X TRIGGERS

... INSIDE OF "NO MAN's" LAnd

It’s the early hours of the morning and I’m still working. It's not the first time. It's a daily occurrence.

Funny thing was, over dinner, and with my marriage on its last legs, I’d promised my wife, “No more.”

Yet here I am again - bending over backwards for another customer. Putting myself, my family, and my sanity at the bottom of the barrel.

I’m a yes man, trying to keep everyone else on-side while the people that matter most suffer in silence.

It’s a dark place, and one I’d begun to call “normal” after being at the helm of my own business for the last eight years.

A place of complete and utter conflict and crisis, that had all started with a trigger. A trigger that I’ve come to now recognise as ‘overstretch.’

TRIGGER #1

THE OVERSTRETCH

Trigger #1 : The OverStretch

Whatever the cause, the fall-out is simple enough.

A state that's simply down to our male primal instinct and want, to provide more.  A raw desire to take on more work and more business than we should.

One that is all too often amplified by a willingness to please others by saying “YES.”

Now, I’ll have you consider, the BIG problem with reaching overstretch is that for most it immediately leads to trigger number two...

TRIGGER #2

THE CHOKE

Trigger #2 : The CHOKE

Now, I suspect you’ve already experienced the pain of ‘the choke’ first hand. Because the Choke is that place when you’re still awake at 2.37am in morning and you’re like, “FUCK!”

And herein lies the big problem with The Choke - something has to give. And when something has to give, the lowest hanging fruit falls from the tree and stops you dead in the tracks:

It’s exactly why, during the choke, we ALWAYS hit trigger number three.

TRIGGER #3

THE PERSECUTION & PANIC

Trigger #3 : THE Persecution & Panic

Understand that the definition of persecution is hostility and ill-treatment towards those of differing beliefs.

Now, for us that play this game it means....

And I get it - persecution is not fair.

Because, when push comes to shove, it’s not our fault.

I mean, after all, we’re just trying to do the right thing – provide and protect, and that sometimes means sacrifices.

Trouble is, those sacrifices – and our internal justification of WHY they’re OK – don’t fix the guilt.
They don’t stop the arguments at home, and they don’t buy you back time.

It’s EXACTLY why, in my experience, persecution drags most to the bottom of the barrel. A place of even longer workdays, sleepless nights and more suffering. One that leaves us more frustrated, fatigued and PANICKED as our bodies suffer both mentally and physically.

Now here’s the thing…. when you hit that place, there's only one of two ways in which you can go. Collapse and fail OR you suck it up and suffer in silence.

TRIGGER #4

THE Persistence

Those that fight on face a period of hussle. Nose to the grind in the distant hope that you can fight your way out of this misery by just working harder and getting shit done…

Because that’s what men are supposed to do, right?!

Complete and utter persistence in one thing, and one thing only – WORK.

Work justified to those around us by the belief that everything will be OK if we can just:

Now the funny thing is, if you persistently work for long and hard enough, the odds will tell you that things will turn around and you will trigger a Revolt. 

TRIGGER #5

THE REVOLT

Trigger #5 : THE REVOLT

Somewhere on the surface, that seems like a good place. One where you can finally breathe a sigh of relief because you can see the wood through the trees and finally start focusing on making money again.

But here’s the kicker...

I’ll have you consider that when you fight your way through No Man’s Land with pure male aggression, hard work and persistence – there’s only one way in which it can go.

Sometimes, it’s only a matter of weeks, other times it takes months, sometimes years.

BUT one thing is certain. A REVOLT by its nature will always be followed by crisis and conflict, and crisis and conflict is always followed by overstretch.

And it’s exactly why if an ounce of this runs true, I’ll have you once again consider everything you’ve been told about what it takes to be a man at the helm of a business today is DEAD WRONG.
