What does it mean to be a “warrior”?
Well, first things first… The warrior — as I teach in my programs — is an archetype and is used in mythology as a model to help us better ourselves.
The warrior is a model of inner power. The warrior’s way is the way of action.
And to be a warrior, you must not only take action, you must take UNCONDITIONAL ACTION.
In other words, if you want to succeed, you will need to become someone who takes action — no matter what. You need to become a “whatever-it-takes” kind of person.
Think about a warrior in the heat of battle in the battlefield — which could just as easily be you in the business world when things get tough or uncomfortable, or don’t go your way.
Is a warrior going to say things like, “Oh, I don’t know, it’s getting kind of late, I’ve been fighting all day, I don’t feel like it.”
What happens if they say that? Boom, they’re dead. They cannot say that — they don’t have that luxury. And neither do you… IF you want to reach high, high levels of success in the real world.
The Warrior Way Is Either 100% or 0% — Do Whatever It Takes To Fight For The Success You Want
So, let me ask you a question: If you lived your life like you are in the battlefield and you are fighting for your life right now, and every second is a life or death situation, and if you did not succeed you would actually die…
... Would you be taking any different actions than you are taking right now? Would you have a different attitude than you have right now? Of course you would.
Then you may say, “But Harv, I’m not in that situation.” Right, and that’s why you don’t take those actions, true or true?
And that’s why you’re not as successful as you could be.
Then you may say, “But Harv, how am I supposed to keep a balanced lifestyle if I’m always focused on getting the job done?”
My friends, it doesn’t mean you’re not in balance if you’re a warrior. When you play and when you do business, the warrior way is either 100% or 0%. There is no black and white. It’s life or death. You are either involved 100% and giving 100% of yourself, or you’re not:
… When you’re resting, you give 100% to rest.
… When you’re playing, you give 100% to playing.
… When you’re with your family, you give 100% to your family.
… Then you go back into your work or business, and you give 100% to that.
Now it’s also critical that you understand that a “whatever-it-takes” type of person will act in spite of their mood. And this is something I see that stops the majority of my students from becoming as successful as they’d like to be.
You may notice yourself saying fear-based things like: “I don’t feel like it.” … “I’m not sure how to do this.”… “I’m afraid.”… “I’m tired.”… “What if they don’t like me?”… “What if I fail?”
Feel the fear and do it anyway. Act in spite of fear. Act in spite of your mood. Act in spite of anything.
That is the true warrior, and I KNOW it is in you. Read on to know why…
Separate Yourself From Your Mind, And Act In Spite Of Fear
The key here is that when your mind is saying something to you, you can still act. Remember, your mind is just an inner voice, it isn’t even real. And most people believe their mind. They believe that their mind is them, giving them accurate information.
But you don’t have to believe that voice in your head. That is a conditioned, learned response.
Instead, you have to act in spite of fear. Don’t try to get rid of fear — because you can’t. The only time you ever get rid of your mind and your fear is when you die.
So what do you do when those thoughts creep in and your mind starts chattering away? What do you do when your fear-based mind starts to control you?
If you’re not living every aspect of your life at 100%, join me for my free web class,
Don’t Believe A Thought You Think,
You’ll discover how to tame your fear-based mind so you can master your life, succeed even in the face of fear and challenges, and become truly unstoppable.
You want to be living at 100% by making choices based on your inner power, not fear. Fear will keep you from having what you truly want in life, and that’s no way to live. So to make sure that doesn’t happen to you, I highly encourage you to join me on my class as my guest.

Thank you Harv! Since i’m an entrepeneur (8 years), i’m always in the warrior mode. In the past I’ve had 6 company’s shared with other people. Guess what… i was always broke, i could only pay my bills. Now i have one company and i’m 100% owner. For the financial situation i’m in, this is way much better. My problem was that i was busy with to much things at one time. Now i have solved that problem.
I followed almost all your courses. I have cleansed up myself, now i have started with the automation of my e-mailmarketing. The next step is to test my newsletters for conversion and make it work. The next step is to try out a webinar.
Thanks for your motivating words and the repetition so i remind myself the things i have learned from you to practice them!
I have much more to tell, but now i have to “fight” the battle to make the automations work for me.
Oh another thing… i just took some pictures of myself to make my newsletters more personal.
I am a warrior and i will achieve my goal to become a millionair.

Becoming a single parent with no family support set me in warrior mode years ago. Many attempts were made to get a business going with no success. Returned to school for a teaching degree while raising my daughter. The learning was priceless but after a few years I also learned I didnt wish to be in a school setting. Now seeing my grown daughter killing herself on a salary, having acquired free knowledge to run her own business ….I am determined more than ever to create a new way for us both. This amazing gift from God literally saved me and now I will not stop to return the greatness back to her. My motto has always been sink or swim. I choose to swim! I just enlightened her about passive income! My gratitude to you for all this learning cant begin to be expressed in words,but I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am understanding where you are coming from in your book and in these webinars. Much appreciation sent your way,peace out.
