Burn your ships.

As surprising as it is, thousands of men, every single fu-king day, try to get back with their ex. They don’t know how to make a clean break. Instead, they give them ties in which to get back into their life. Why is that?

They aren’t just desperate, they are relying on sh-t like backup plans, fail safes, plan B’s, etc. (They are afraid of being alone.) It doesn’t matter if you’re in the business world or the dating game, those things will destroy you! As Alexander the Great once said, equipping your mind to deal with ultimately overcome fear is the difference in battle.

Consider Caesar’s failed first invasion of Britain back in 54BC. Sure, he was disastrously defeated, however, his second invasion in 55BC would forever change the story. His plan the second time included burning the ships of his men. By doing so, he forced them to either succeed or ultimately die. There was no backup plan, there could be no retreat!

If you have things like a plan b in place, you’ve already built that kind of thinking into your subconscious. You will fail! You’re essentially telling yourself, “It’s okay to fail”. Failure must NEVER be an option. Remember, FEAR is false expectations appearing real. You must never be afraid of fear, nor the idea of embarrassing yourself. Neither of two ever stopped Caesar from claiming victory he believed to be rightfully his.
