Last night I sat down to watch the season finale of Scandal and like millions of other people, I was glued to my television set, (yes, this is my weekly guilty pleasure) and by the end of the show I realized that the character Quinn Perkins, played by Katie Lowes actually taught me a few things about life and myself and internet marketing.
1. Given enough time, you can learn to do anything
When the character Quinn, first comes on the scene of Scandal she is a sheltered, innocent young woman who seemed afraid of her own shadow and who had absolutely no experience in the world she had been thrust into.
She was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed a short nine months ago and as the season finale of Scandal came to an end last night, she had done what I'm certain she would have imagined as unthinkable (I won't ruin it in case you didn't watch it live). This taught me that if I give myself enough time, I will learn to do all that needs to be done in life and in my business.
2. A good mentor is key to your transformation
Quinn was being taught by the best in his industry, Huck. You watch a perfect demonstration of mentor and student working together. He initiated the basic training in the safe environment of their office where he did the work and she got a bird's-eye view while looking over-his-shoulder at every keystroke he made while working on the computer to gather information. Huck trained Quinn on what to look for and how to behave when in public (networking), and then he began teaching her how to think about herself and the work differently.
3. A mastermind group will help you think differently
Olivia Pope, the character played by Kerry Washington, calls her four person team, The Gladiators. They come together to think and talk through the situations they find themselves in. They meet in a "War Room" daily and create plans together about how they are going to "fix" the latest Scandal.
With this very tight mastermind group of Gladiators, Quinn learned to process the information she was being made privy to differently. What made no sense to her at the start of the season, was perfectly understood at the end of the day. The same can be said of your life and business. Get yourself into a solid mastermind group and your mind will change.
4. There is more to your identity than meets the eye
At the start of the season, Huck's assignment was to drug, kidnapped and relocate Quinn from California to Washington D.C. Upon waking up, she found herself in a hotel room with completely new identification papers and she began the journey of releasing her former self to become the person who matched her new identification.
Similarly, when you chose to start your home based business on the internet, on most days you probably went back and forth with your habits and your conversations with yourself and others because what was real ans right before suddenly feels all wrong... until you finally accept and integrate your new identity as a business owner.
What To Do Next To take everyday activities, like watching Scandal, and turn them into living lessons?
