10 000 Hours To Mastery

Making money is cool, feeling like you haven't earned it, not so cool. Mastery is a 10 000 hour investment of time, that's a lot of messed up minutes and hours in practice mode. The novice not only lacks skill, they also lack confidence. With increased skill, confidence in ability grows.  When money is attached to the equation, with increased skill, increased confidence, one would assume there would be a commensurate increase in pay, unless, of course, the service provider doesn't feel like they earned the more money part.  One if the hurdles is the heart in this equation.  There is an idea floating around out there in pretend entrepreneur land that if you have a gift, an offering that will serve others, should you really get paid?  Yeah, you should!  When this floaty thought is held, pinned down and asked to explain itself, it can't!  What usually surfaces in the questioning is money stories from the past, either distant or painfully recent, regardless of the time line, there is a block when it comes to the exchange of service for its real cash value.  The invitation is to keep working on mastery and in the mean time, hang with people who make the kind of money you want to make, somehow, it rubs off, and you, My Dear, will slay another one of your money monsters.
