Patience And Discipline - Virtues To Grow Your Business Successfully
I'm a fan of animals in their natural habitat. I'm not really a fan of like them at my house or zoos but yeah, and I remember, I was in the amazon. I stayed with these tribes. This tribe called the matisse and these guys were former cannibals and I hung out in the jungle with them for a while and I remember watching this like and by the way, when you're with native people in their in the jungle settings, like an activity like watching a wild animal appear is like, that's it. That's all that's going on for the day like, they will sit and they will just watch all day long this happening and I remember watching this like, beautiful black jaguar which is you think happens all the time in the jungle, it's rare.
I was there for months and you know really I think two times we saw a jaguar and it was for seconds and we saw this cat come and you think okay, what makes this cat an effective predator. What makes this cat a useful creature and so you're watching it and it would wait forever. It would sit back you see these like bright yellow eyes like just through these like leaves and it would just be patient. And you realize this is a cat that could probably jump like 40 feet in the air and like pop trees and gates and do all kinds of stuff but ultimately it's the fact that it's a stalker. The fact that it's got patience is the reason why it's effective. And if you want to be effective in business and life in any of these things, you want to become what Carlos Castaneda, the great author author from the 1960s 70s and 80s would say.
You want to become a person of power, you want to become a stalker, you want to have the ability to stalk your prey. I'm using that symbolically. Obviously, please don't become a stalker in the in the weird sense of it. But you want to have the quality of patience because others will lack in that discipline and when they lack in that discipline, you can pounce and take advantage. It's exactly what we teach on amazon. We teach people hey, find a niche. Look for the vulnerability and then you know, people follow our system that we teach on our FBA seller course and you follow the system. You find the niche, you find the vulnerability and then you just wait. You wait until the right opportunity and then you pounce and that's how it works. That's pretty interesting.
