Are you procrastinating in business? Do you keep coming up against “brick walls” that stop you growing your business? Maybe you are flat out, with your wheels spinning and not making the money you should be. I think we all find ourselves in these situations at times. Very often, the reason this happens is because there is a fear we are holding onto that we are not even aware of. As entrepreneurs, if we don’t deal with this fear and move on, our businesses will never reach the stage they should.

This snippet is taken from  a newspaper column written by David J. Pollay journalist and writer back in 2007.

“One day I hopped in a taxi and we took off for the airport. We were
driving in the left lane when suddenly a black car jumped out of a
parking space right in front of us. My taxi driver slammed on his
brakes, skidded, and missed the other car by just inches!

The driver of the other car whipped his head around and started yelling at us. My taxi driver just smiled and waved at the guy. And I mean, he was really friendly. So I asked, ‘Why did you just do that? That idiot almost ruined your car and sent us to the hospital!’
This is when my taxi driver taught me what I now call, ‘The Law of the Garbage Truck.’

He explained that many people are like garbage trucks. They run around
full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment.
As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it and sometimes they’ll dump it on you. Don’t take it personally.
Just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on. Don’t take their garbage
and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets.
The bottom line is that successful people do not let garbage trucks take
over their day.
Life’s too short to wake up in the morning with regrets, so:
Love the people who treat you right. Pray for the ones who don’t.
Life is ten percent what you make it and ninety percent how you take it!”
