I'm a 50 yr old millionaire, and I took a picture of your two graphs, to remind myself of your fantastic explanation. I'm going to look at this, when I'm unconsciously being a coward. Thanks again!
You said in a different video, money doesn’t create new problems, it creates different problems. You’ll have problems broke and problems with money. And they’re not the same problems. Obviously. This clip reminds me of that idea, which has helped me immensely.
I love this. Since I turned 30 I stop caring what other people think. Instead of trying to pass a test or a task first time to save face I just jump straight in and make mistakes coz I know it’s the quickest way to learn. Life’s too short. Attack it!
Pretty sure this exact realization is why so many of us are more successful in our latter years than our earlier. It's such a life changing lesson to learn and it takes some of us that first decade of adulthood to unlearn the whole "prodigy" mentality that media puts on a pedestal. Needless to say I agree with you 100% lol
I watch this video every morning before work, so that I keep in mind that feelin` unsafe, uncomfortable, a lil bit fearful is a good thing and it is the only way to success! Thank you!
Literally LOVE all of your content. Alex is great as well but literally everything you been putting out HAS tremendously helped me rethink my business.
You literally just described what I've been feeling for a long time! I realised that I would have a spark of inspiration but instead of mapping it out or literally just starting the project, I'd waste time searching for "more information" and I'd fall down these rabbit holes, and before I knew what was going on, I managed to bore or frustrate myself out of starting. Then I'd keep pushing it back, like this future event. Days turns into weeks that turns into months and nothing gets done, and I can't stop feeling bad, because of the feeling of failure and anxiety over my inability to just do something!!!THIS is so powerful and helpful. Thank you!!
This is so good. It’s also a realization I’m starting to come to right now. In practice this looks like: asking a question that might make you look silly, reaching out to a client before you have all your ducks perfectly in a row, shipping a version of your product without endlessly tweaking every last little detail, etc. Basically just doing the dang thing knowing there’s a chance you’ll fail, because then you’ll know what about it failed and what needs to be adjusted going forward.
Thank you, the realisation of constantly doing something new and being actually scared of failing hit me. I have to do a lot of new things for school and work, over the time I got more and more mentally exhausted and now I realise why.
This is 100% what I'm going through, except I need the approval of my business partner to do anything. Once that started I stopped making money. I am now working at a different company now to hire a team to build systems to completely replace her.
Thank you for articulating something I couldn’t put into words. You’re doing God’s work bc you’re freely sharing your wisdom. I’m in a season of not really having friends but your my virtual friend & coach. Thanks 🙏
Leila I love your stuff! Always have. You and Alex are anomaly’s lmao - thanks for the inspiration. You two literally changed my life and took me from poverty to a multiple 6 figure earner. Appreciate ya’ll
Thank you for sharing your not glorified experience! It is easy to fall into the expectations of the great and easygoing life just because someone else is having that on the outside.
Anyone else would fly to any state to hear Leila speak???? I have so much admiration for you. Thank you for keeping it raw and real with people! I am learning so much from your stories, whether they ended in success or failure.
I am so grateful for how you both normalize feeling like shit about yourself and your character and helping us be able to recognize it and keep moving the ball forward
Damn, this woman explain so clear, I can notice she has a TON of experience and she is not selling CRAP!, my god, thanks god I found this channel!, I learn and also give me a lot of hope!, thanks Leila!.
I know this is shallow in comparison to the wealth of knowledge you provide, but would you ever consider doing a make-up tutorial? In business you may be a tiger, but as a human being you're also adorable and I love your look! I really think being sooo open about your short comings in order to show how you overcame them for everyone's benefit is super relatable and commendable. I'm sure you don't hear this enough but you're an incredibly loveable person.
I just love all the content you share. I needed to hear this video. It is confirmation of the new thing I am doing to get out of my confort. You are a great inspiration. Big hug.😊
- Do things that is uncomfortable to you like try new things because usually that's what stoping you from doing what you wanted to do. - understand what are things that is consuming your times and judge according to your goal.
I am so excited you are doing these TH-cam videos Leila! I love learning from you and I am very excited to get these gold nuggets from you. I am excited to continue to learn from you now. I appreciate you being willing to share these vulnerable moments you have had that I think a lot of us can relate to. Thank you for being you and sharing your wisdom!
From $0-$20M it seemed super easy to work every day, all day and never run out of productive things to do - after that it took me a long time to shift from DOING into THINKING and DECIDING and I was mostly procrastinating for an entire year. Once I finally let go of doing so much I figured out I actually had time to plan and think and make big decisions but it hasn't been an easy transition at all. Great talk.
Y’all have the best advice, constantly, every single time. I spent so much time spinning my wheels, trying to be productive…telling myself that every single thing counts. THIS will help me stay on track, but more importantly, moving upward and onward!!!❤❤❤
This was so helpful, I need to keep watching these and not be afraid. I keep giving my self the excuse that I need a team and cants succeed alone. Thank you, Dawn
Started my first business at 14 years old and have had many many different successful businesses in the last 36 years since and what she’s saying is spot on. I learned that lesson the hard way. Love all your content. Huge fan here!
This is gold. Good things always happen after time spent outside of the comfort zone. I think my mindset just got the little shift/boost I needed. Thanks.
You have no idea, how much I needed to hear this video at this very moment in my life. I understand what my problem is now. I cannot thank you enough. This is worth listening to over and over again
Conducting a time study is probably the most valuable tool I’ve found for increasing performance. I’ve heard you and Alex both reference them, I hope to see many more people using them in the future. Fighting the Pareto principle and making as much of the team highly productive rather than productive procrastinators.
Im learning programming and ive done this more than once. Telling myself that I should probably work on basics over and over, but in reality is was a fear of failing in the next step. Because it doesnt get tiring and frustrating learning something new.I think this is why a lot of people that have plans of losing weight give up early after they lose 15 pounds of the 60 pounds they wanted to lose.
Wow, I needed to hear this. Thank you. I've been feeling a bit fearful of going for what matters to take the business forward because I just don't have the experience Or skills and don't know what to expect. You are right, you end up unknowingly staying in that safe zone and I have realised I just need to go for it and if I mess up so be it, learn, adjust and do it again and again.
You are amazing Leila! This video helped reframe things for me so much! 🥹 I’m in a season of testing and tweaking and it feels like I’m failing… but I’m moving forward with each try. Thank you for letting us know… it’s normal and part of the process! Onward and upward. 🙏
So good! Productive failure.. Failure is a good thing and part of the process. Im learning that as I move forward in my business. You cannot be afraid to take risks, he who risks nothing risks the most. Amazing stuff, thank you for the content Leila!! Telling it like it is!
I’ve certainly caught myself in this cycle of productive procrastination as of late - thanks for putting this out there along with the concrete actions you took to get back to where you needed to be! Love the content, Leila!
I can't tell you how grateful I am to have discovered your channel, even though I am broke and working my way up. Thank you so much. You're the greatest. I genuinely care about you. Because I've spent hours watching videos that teach you how to stop procrastinating. This is by far my favorite. Why? Because it revealed the issue and what I was doing incorrectly. And what should I change in such a simple way. This means a lot to me.
So much gratitude for this; I can't explain how much your work touches me. I have been held back by fear of failure - no wonder I've not yet succeeded. Thank you!
This may have changed everything for me. Crossed 1Mil in revenue at my startup and realized that I felt like a complete imposter. I was bottlenecking the business bc I stopped working on what mattered. Tomorrow, I will productively fail. and say it's ok to do the thing I might fail at. It's worth it because it's an important part of the business. Thanks Leila.
So happy that you launched your TH-cam channel. Your IG stories always have immense amounts of value and now getting to hear your insights is even better. Thanks for doing this Leila!
"I embrace productive failure and step out of my comfort zone. I take risks, make bold decisions, and learn from both failure and success. I am not defined by perfection, but by my courage to try new things. I am unstoppable in my pursuit of growth and fulfillment. I choose to break free from procrastination and create a thriving and purposeful path. I am capable, resilient, and in control. Today, I choose to be a productive failure, unlocking my true potential and propelling myself forward."
Thank you so much Leila. This is exactly what I'm going through right now. I'm successfully avoiding failure and successfully avoiding success too. Change must happen now. Your video is eye-opening.
Thank you, Leila. I am nowhere near 7 figures but I this video has been extremely helpful. I can definitely relate to the productive procrastination mindset because when I first started I was overly confident and became more humble and cautious over time - and now just do things I already know how to do, but I like the productive failure mindset. It's real and it works. I know this, because I used to do a lot in the beginning.
Gems being thrown at me is all I see when I watch Alex's or Leila's videos. Incredible stuff. Thank you guys! Sometimes only years later you realize those productive failures. That's so true. You can not connect the dots looking forward, you can do it only looking backwards.
This is exactly what I needed, thankyou Leila ! Believe it or not, you brought me to a whole new level like this video was a 1 on 1 mentorship with you
'The Expectations Video' Leila was Amazing and I just wanted to tell you. I'm watching all of these videos for my Production Company and I feel you should write a quick read E-book with all this all the steps in order as much possible. Congratulations on all of your success and keep making these gems.
I love this! You have a fabulous way of teaching things and breaking this down in the simplest form! That's your gift! I learn so much from you! Thank you!

I love how you said you realized you needed to shift from productively procrastinating to productively failing.
thank you!
Facts!!!

Needless to say I agree with you 100% lol
@@austinjrb I think most people in their teens and 20s feel like this. There is too much pressure to be some kind of prodigy because of social media
You just synthesized 400 business/psychology books into a 10 minute digestible and actionable video. I’m doing this NOW! Thank you!!
I so agree, I feel like everything that I hear or see in another TH-camr is condensed here!, is just fantastic.
I can listen to you and Alex all day. Not just for amazing business knowledge but you are just great humans. Thank you for always being real.
I watch this video every morning before work, so that I keep in mind that feelin` unsafe, uncomfortable, a lil bit fearful is a good thing and it is the only way to success!
Thank you!
Literally LOVE all of your content. Alex is great as well but literally everything you been putting out HAS tremendously helped me rethink my business.
I’m so glad! That’s great to hear
The Hormozi's fuckin slaughter. Appreciate you both so much
This was SUCH a needed video. 2 years old and so golden.
You literally just described what I've been feeling for a long time! I realised that I would have a spark of inspiration but instead of mapping it out or literally just starting the project, I'd waste time searching for "more information" and I'd fall down these rabbit holes, and before I knew what was going on, I managed to bore or frustrate myself out of starting. Then I'd keep pushing it back, like this future event. Days turns into weeks that turns into months and nothing gets done, and I can't stop feeling bad, because of the feeling of failure and anxiety over my inability to just do something!!!THIS is so powerful and helpful. Thank you!!
Same exact thoughts! I have six months to turn it around thou!
Please don't ever stop. Shit is SO good. Needed to hear this today. TH-cam must have known.
This is so good. It’s also a realization I’m starting to come to right now. In practice this looks like: asking a question that might make you look silly, reaching out to a client before you have all your ducks perfectly in a row, shipping a version of your product without endlessly tweaking every last little detail, etc. Basically just doing the dang thing knowing there’s a chance you’ll fail, because then you’ll know what about it failed and what needs to be adjusted going forward.
No better interpretation than this
Thank you, the realisation of constantly doing something new and being actually scared of failing hit me. I have to do a lot of new things for school and work, over the time I got more and more mentally exhausted and now I realise why.
This is 100% what I'm going through, except I need the approval of my business partner to do anything. Once that started I stopped making money. I am now working at a different company now to hire a team to build systems to completely replace her.
I’m planning to watch this next week… or if not, definitely the week after
Thank you for articulating something I couldn’t put into words. You’re doing God’s work bc you’re freely sharing your wisdom. I’m in a season of not really having friends but your my virtual friend & coach. Thanks 🙏
Love this short and powerful teaching. Thank you
Leila I love your stuff! Always have. You and Alex are anomaly’s lmao - thanks for the inspiration. You two literally changed my life and took me from poverty to a multiple 6 figure earner. Appreciate ya’ll
wow…. that’s amazing. Thank you ❤️
Wow great and in which field your business is involved?
Productively procrastinating, yes I am sometimes a member of this club. Thank you for this.
absolutely
Thank you for sharing your not glorified experience!
It is easy to fall into the expectations of the great and easygoing life just because someone else is having that on the outside.
“…you are living out the productive failures you’ve made years ago.” I really liked that that idea was into words
Honestly started watching your husband and just recently started watching your videos and I have 4x my self in a month thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
You’re extraordinary Leila! I hope you continue to prosper in all of your endeavors! 💗
Anyone else would fly to any state to hear Leila speak???? I have so much admiration for you. Thank you for keeping it raw and real with people! I am learning so much from your stories, whether they ended in success or failure.
This one hit home. Thank you for this! Risk failure to move forward!
I am so grateful for how you both normalize feeling like shit about yourself and your character and helping us be able to recognize it and keep moving the ball forward
I feel like this video was a 100% directed to me the way I needed to hear it😤🔥🔥🔥
WhooHoo. Great exposure...i love also that you BALANCE your forwardness with workouts and VALUE your Spirit and Soul....full being....yessss
Now I know I am stuck in productive procrastination. thanks
I love the way you attacked this subject. Do not fear failure as long as it doesn't cause you to quit all together.
Damn, this woman explain so clear, I can notice she has a TON of experience and she is not selling CRAP!, my god, thanks god I found this channel!, I learn and also give me a lot of hope!, thanks Leila!.

You are awesome Natalie, thank you!!! Love seeing ya here ❤️🙏🏻
This is what ive been thinking for a while, but you actually spoke it clearly. Damn. So grateful. Thank you
Really enjoyed hearing that. Thanks for your honesty. Different perspective.
From $0-$20M it seemed super easy to work every day, all day and never run out of productive things to do - after that it took me a long time to shift from DOING into THINKING and DECIDING and I was mostly procrastinating for an entire year.

I really like this lady. She's real.
FEARED things FIRST!! Awesome video
Really resonated with me. Thanks Leila!
9 minutes and you NAILED it, Leila. It's always fear of failure while actually failing slowly by not facing the fear. Excellent video!
Y’all have the best advice, constantly, every single time. I spent so much time spinning my wheels, trying to be productive…telling myself that every single thing counts. THIS will help me stay on track, but more importantly, moving upward and onward!!!❤❤❤
G'damnit nailed it...I was waiting for you to turn that sheet so bad...and then boom I saw exactly what I had to do....Thank you soo much!
This was so helpful, I need to keep watching these and not be afraid. I keep giving my self the excuse that I need a team and cants succeed alone. Thank you, Dawn

Thank you for sharing your mindset. Thank you for your generosity! You are already financially ok or more than ok lol. Appreciate you doll 😘
This is gold. Good things always happen after time spent outside of the comfort zone. I think my mindset just got the little shift/boost I needed. Thanks.
Best video for self development / Building a business.you’re perspective and models helped me see 🤍💎I watch you both 🌈🧡
I think it was some good luck to find this video right now! I've been planning to scale up but dithering about it... thank you
Leila, this is one of the best videos i've seen on procrastination and general work progression. Thank you! :))
This is unbelievably valuable. Breathtaking that we get this for free. Thank you!
I absolutely love the honesty of this video and your insights!
I make $0 a month, and this was still very insightful! Thank you Leila!!
Love u! Thanks for everything

Thank you Leila...
Amazing insight. Love Alex’s content and now he put me on yours lol. You guys are killing it 🔋
Wow, I needed to hear this. Thank you.

You've got it figured out. This is exactly what it is! Thanks!
You are amazing Leila! This video helped reframe things for me so much! 🥹
I’m in a season of testing and tweaking and it feels like I’m failing… but I’m moving forward with each try.
Thank you for letting us know… it’s normal and part of the process!
Onward and upward. 🙏
So simple but so profound and true. Thank you for bringing up a mirror for me.
My mind froze when I heard "productively procrastinating". Instantly made me realize that problematic pattern in my life.
So good! Productive failure.. Failure is a good thing and part of the process. Im learning that as I move forward in my business. You cannot be afraid to take risks, he who risks nothing risks the most. Amazing stuff, thank you for the content Leila!! Telling it like it is!
This is perfect! Thank you Leila!!!
This is a fantastic video. I got goosebumps because I am IN THIS!
Thank you for the thoughtful breakdown.

You express it so effectively, I’ll be combining your advice with Alex’s Time-Attention video. Thank you so much for posting this. 🙏🏼
So much gratitude for this; I can't explain how much your work touches me. I have been held back by fear of failure - no wonder I've not yet succeeded. Thank you!
This video is brilliant! Thanks Leila, loving the content you're putting out!
This is spot on! Described exactly where I am. Thank you!
