You know those times in life when you have to do something you really don’t want to? Maybe it’s some seemingly irrelevant analysis in excel, or a 5 hour drive with someone you’re not super fond of.
We all have lots of things in our lives that aren’t very fun. And, in entrepreneurship, that is probably even more true. Many times founders are the ones doing the grunt work up until the company hits a certain point. This could mean doing data entry for a lead gen project, or washing the dishes someone left in the sink. The glamorous lives of startups!
In fact, a lot of a founder’s day is stuff they have to do. Write an eBook, send a newsletter, do a demo, follow up with all the people you met at the event last night, check in on an existing customer…the list goes on and on. And, honestly, sometimes it’s super overwhelming. Sometimes you’re thinking to yourself “there are so many things I HAVE TO DO!”
A “Get to” Attitude
If I was smart, the title of this article would be “the one change that will make you so much happier at work.” I really think with a slight change in perception, things get a bit more fun and exciting.
Instead of a “I have to do this” mentality, you should be adopting an “I get to” do this attitude! You don’t HAVE to do that excel analysis, you GET to do it and are now more facile with excel, gained insights into whether or not it’s worth it to do the analysis, got to challenge yourself a bit (even if it’s just to see how fast you can do it), etc.
Adopting a grateful mindset is a proven way to be more happy. If you don’t think this is true, I challenge you to spend 2 full minutes right now thinking about the things you are grateful for and really think about them. Even if it’s as simple as “I’m so grateful for a warm cup of coffee” or “I love how this pair of sweatpants feels” it will make you happier almost instantly.
The Sports Analogy
I remember watching an interview with Charlie Rose and Gary Player a while back. Gary is an incredible golfer and Charlie asked him why he was so good. Gary responded that he enjoys the challenge of being in a bad situation.
This means that when Gary hits his ball into a bunker, his attitude is not “damnit, now I have to figure out how to get this ball out of the bunker and not overshoot the green or else I’m going to lose this tournament!” No, his attitude is something more like “Ok, now I get to challenge myself. I get to figure out this problem, and get better at figuring out these sorts of problems from here on out.”
Startup Life
Obviously, this “get to” attitude is tough to internalize. This is especially true if you’re working 100 hours a week as a resident, or an ibanker, or whatever. It’s also tough as an entrepreneur who’s focused so closely on building a company while not straying too close to the sun.
However, I think it’s an awesome way to get over the nature of work – which is that a lot of it kind of sucks and no one wants to really do the hard things. But that right there is a reason to do them – you’re doing the things no one else wants to do, and therefore are gaining an advantage on your competition. Or, maybe your rational is that you get to provide for your family, or get to gain a new skill, or get to live in the first world where we have so many advantages.
Whatever you do with your days – whether it’s golf or entrepreneurship – try out a “get to” attitude, especially when you find yourself overwhelmed with what you have to do. I hope it brings you more satisfaction and happiness in whatever it is you’re pursuing.
As a disclaimer, someone in my travels framed this “get to” attitude for me – it’s how they try to live their life. I totally forget who and in what context, but they deserve any credit for this idea which has stayed in my brain ever since.

but it has pretty much the same page layout and design. Wonderful choice of colors!
Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my iphone and tested to
see if it can survive a twenty five foot drop, just so she can be a youtube sensation. My iPad
is now broken and she has 83 views. I know this
is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
It’s an amazing article for all the internet users;
they will take benefit from it I am sure.
What i don’t realize is in reality how you’re no longer actually a lot more neatly-appreciated than you may be right now.
You are very intelligent. You know thus considerably in terms of this
matter, made me in my view imagine it from numerous varied angles.
Its like women and men don’t seem to be fascinated until it is something to do with Girl gaga!
Your own stuffs excellent. All the time deal with it up!
Offenbar machten sich viele Verbraucher die letzten Monaten zuhause die Haare schön. Dennoch sich viele Männer im Home Office einen Drei-Tage-Bart wachsen ließen,
griffen sie verstärkt zu Schere und Rasierer. Nach Angaben einer Sprecherin von Procter & Gamble stieg 2020 der Absatz
für Haartrimmer- und Bart-Styling-Produkte. Während des ersten Lockdowns im Frühjahr 2020, als
die Friseure sechs Wochen waren, nahmen viele Deutsche ihr Styling selbst in Angriff.
Laut Umfragen schnitten sich 14 Prozent der
Bundesbürger selbst die Haare, elf Prozent nahmen Hilfe deren Familie und Freunden in Anspruch.
In mehreren Medien wie zum Beispiel der “Frankfurter Rundschau” gaben Friseurmeister zu, in ihrer Wohnung Haare
von Stammkunden zu schneiden. Die Angst, wirtschaftlich nicht den Lockdown zu
überleben, sei größer als die Angst, erwischt zu
werden. Mehrere Friseure berichteten von vermehrten Bitten der Kunden, auf die
schnelle die Haare geschnitten auf Lager. Dass einige Friseure auch
während des Lockdowns Kunden und Kundinnen heimlich – wahrscheinlich erst
recht zuhause – frisiert haben, gilt als Gerede. Auch an TV-Moderatoren ist Kritik geäußert worden. Auch diese sollten sich überlegen, ob sie sich die Haare nicht mehr lange Zähne machen,
meint Verbandspräsident Esser. TV-Studios sind nicht vom Lockdown betroffen. Manche Kunden böten sogar den doppelten Preis, weiß Thomas Trapp, Vorstand des Landesinnungsverbands Friseurhandwerk Hessen, von Kollegen.
Es müssen dort lediglich die Hygieneregeln eingehalten werden.

Hi there Dear, are you actually visiting this web page daily,
if so then you will without doubt get pleasant experience.
Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I
found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said
“You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and screamed.
There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched
her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is completely off topic but I
had to tell someone!
I am genuinely thankful to the holder of this site who has shared this great post at at this

Die meisten der vorgestellten Roboter besitzen einen sog.
HEPA-Filter, der diesen Anforderungen genügt.
Nachfolgend erhalten Sie einen Überblick zu den vielfältigen Möglichkeiten bezogen auf
Steuerung und Programmierung eines Reinigungsroboters.
Obwohl die meisten Saugroboter heutzutage mit einer App-
und vielfach auch mit zusätzlicher Sprachsteuerung ausgeliefert
werden, lassen sie sich dennoch auch durch die am Gerät direkt angebrachten Tasten steuern. Welcher Roboter welche Funktion sprich unterstützt, können Sie unserer Vergleichstabelle entnehmen. Bei manchen Geräten kann man darüberhinaus auch noch einen ECO-Modus per Tastendruck einschalten, und schließlich
darf auf so einem Tastenfeld auch eine Taste “Reinigung starten” nicht fehlen. Ein Tastenfeld an der Oberseite des Staubsauger Roboters ermöglicht die direkte Programmierung am Gerät.
Hierfür ist kein weiteres Setup (WLAN, App etc.) notwendig.
Dazu zählen dann Tasten zur Reinigung, zum Aufladen (meistens als “Dock” bezeichnet) oder
zum Einschalten des Spot-Modus (Saugen im Kreis gebündelt).
Der Trend geht allerdings verstärkt gen App-Steuerung per Smartphone ergänzt durch Sprachsteuerung via Amazon Alexa sowie Google Home.
Immer Haushaltsgeräte werden heutzutage über Smartphone und Tablet gesteuert.
Die Verbindung, welche die Haut mit der Tatowierung eingeht, besteht nicht nur auf der Oberflache des Korpers, sondern geht viel tiefer in diesen hinein. Die
Haut spielt eine bedeutende Rolle und ist daher aus einer anderen Perspektive zu
betrachten, als nur die eines bloBen Tragers der Tatowierung und einer Hulle des Korpers.
In diesem Kapitel untersuche ich die gegenwartige westliche Hautvorstellung,
die Wahrnehmung des Korperbildes und die Bedeutung der Haut fur die Tatowierung.
Das vorherrschende kollektive Korperbild in Europa hat sich seit der cartesianischen Spaltung
in Leib und Seele, Geist und Korper nur wenig gewandelt.
Die Biologie des materiellen Korpers gilt als gegeben und unwandelbar.
Dieses leibesphilosophische Denken, welches der Kultur den Geist und der Natur den Korper
zuschreibt, begreift sich selbst als auBerhalb der Geschichte stehend.
Sie markiert als Grenze das Innen und AuBen. Die Haut ist eng verknupft mit der Leibeswahrnehmung.
Zwar wandelte sich die Leibeswahrnehmung im 18.
Jahrhundert mit den Anfangen der Anatomie, denn das geheimnisvolle Dahinterliegende wurde sichtbar gemacht.
Doch dem kollektiven Korperbild entsprechend, dient
die Haut noch immer zur Begrenzung des Korpers (Benthien, 1999,
S. 1517). Dieses Korperbild wurde durch das subjektbezogene Denken besonders gefordert, welches das menschliche Zentrum
im Inneren des Korpers sieht (Benthien, 1999, S.11-12).
