WEEK 12

Day 78: On Collaboration

Life  is  not  a  solo  act.  It’s  a  huge  collaboration,  and  we  all  need  to

assemble around us the people who care about us and support us in times of

strife.

—Tim Gunn

Even  though  there’s  “self”  in  the  word  “self-discipline,”  it  doesn’t

mean that you need to refuse the help of other people or that you need to

reinvent  the  wheel  because  you  can’t  make  your  decisions  based  on  the

knowledge  acquired  by  other  people.  It’s  easier  to  put  up  a  fight  against

temptations  and  stick  to  your  resolutions  when  others  have  your  back.

Learning  from  the  experience  of  others,  regardless  if  it’s  in  the  form  of  a

book or a conversation, makes things easier, too.

I’ve greatly benefited from the power of social support by participating

in online forums. I’m pretty sure that if it weren’t for the people I’ve gotten

to know over the years of my entrepreneurial journey, it would have been

much harder for me to reach success. Knowing that the people who inspired

me also had faced obstacles and were tempted to give up, it was easier for

me to keep going when it was me who was facing the immense difficulties.

It  doesn’t  mean  that  you  need  to  become  great  at  making  online

friends,  though.  Most  of  the  people  who  immensely  helped  me  on  my

journey don’t even know me — it was the breadcrumbs they left in the form

of  forum  posts  and  articles  that  changed  my  life,  not  my  friendship  with

them.


Another  way  to  collaborate  is  to  find  a  person  who  will  hold  you

accountable:  a  friend  who’s  on  the  same  journey  as  you  or  perhaps  an

online support group.

The  key  to  benefiting  from  this  strategy  is  choosing  the  right

accountability partner. Go with a person who’s strict, rather than lax, so that

when you don’t feel like doing something, he or she will push you to keep

going rather than give you a pass and a pat on the back. Ideally, this person



should be great at what you want to accomplish, and if not great, at least

slightly better than you.

Last but most definitely not least, if there’s a way to accomplish your

goal  more  quickly  through  working  with  a  reputable  coach  and  you  can

afford  it,  do  that.  I  learned  the  fundamental  knowledge  about  self-

publishing in just a couple of weeks, thanks to working with a person who

was  knowledgeable  about  the  industry.  It  greatly  shortened  my  learning

curve, inspired me, and helped me avoid several obstacles that would have

otherwise tested my resolve, if not outright discouraged from entering this

business.
