You’ve probably heard of Silver Bullet Syndrome many times in your life, but never fully consciously realized the term. Maybe you’ve even bought a few silver bullets yourself, but never realized just what it is they were. Unfortunately Silver Bullet Syndrome is currently one of the biggest problems in society, wasting peoples time and money chasing imaginary promises.
So what is silver bullet syndrome? Essentially a silver bullet is a quick cure to your problems, a solution that fixes a problem you are having with little to no effort on your part and a minuscule amount of time, its the lazy persons way out of doing hard work. You’ve seen them in every field, from weight loss pills that promise you the fat will simply melt away with a minimum of effort, to dating books which claim they can get you laid with new women within 30 minutes or less, 100% of the time and you can learn it within a week. From push button businesses that spit out cash like an ATM machine, to electronic machines that make your muscles grow as you sleep.
Silver bullets are highly toxic, often infecting the customer with a bucket-load of marketing dribble, hyping them into buying the product ASAP then completely failing to deliver on the promises. These products sell the sizzle, not the steak, and most of the time the marketing is as transparent as a plastic bag. Not only this, but silver bullets are more and more becoming mainstream, we live in an age of microwave food and instant noodles, where everyone wants things now and isn’t prepared to put in the effort to attain them. This is creating a negative spiral in society where many, many people are never getting where they want to go. They are running around chasing all these silver bullets in the hope that they can be super fit, have millions of dollars or have all the girls they want in a fraction of the time it would take them normally. I hope you’ve realized by now that this does not work! There are many many case stories of people wasting their entire lives chasing these bullets instead of putting in the effort to achieve their goals (which they could have achieved far easier if they hadn’t been chasing these silver bullets around).
So the next step is to realize if you have been diagnosed with silver bullet syndrome and to stop giving into the cravings immediately. Don’t buy any more over-hyped products off those late night TV shows that promise the world in just 30 days. Stop wasting your money on ebooks or e-businesses that claim you can immediately start raking in money by just pressing a button, sitting back and watching the cash roll in, and especially don’t believe the ads telling you to buy diet pills that will make your fat just melt away. It’s time to take a shift in your mental processing and realize that these things are merely scams designed to take your money and run away, making the owners rich and leaving you with a false fantasy that will never be fulfilled.
Of course there are ways to achieve your goals and get the results you want, and they are simple, but not easy. The first step in wanting anything is to look around for real life case stories of people who have achieved the goal you desire, look at how much time, money and effort they put into it and what results they got. Now don’t just look at the best in that field, don’t look at the get rich quick stories and hope that that could be you, look at the average of all and figure out common things they did and how they managed to make it to that goal in that time-frame. Now the next step is to build a plan of action modelling these people, they’ve done it before so you can do it again, of course your not going to copy exactly what they did (reinventing DOS won’t you as rich as Bill Gates), but simply copy the ideas and steps they took to get to their goal.
Now that you’ve got a rough idea of your time-frame the first step is to learn, learn all about this field and what you need to do. But don’t go buying a bunch of over-hyped products, everything you need to succeed in any endevour in life is available free all over the Internet, and right here on letsinspire.net.
The final step is not to get caught up in paralysis by analysis, this is what happens to a lot of people where they start learning but never start applying, they believe they have to know absolutely everything about what they are going to do before starting, every nook and cranny and every quick shortcut. It doesn’t work this way, instead learn the very basics (should take you a few days at the most) for money you should learn about online marketing and creating products, or selling on eBay, or something really simple then start applying and expand from there. For fitness learn the basics of weight loss or bodybuilding (depending on whether you’d like to lose or gain weight) and for dating learn the basics of communication and just getting along and being comfortable around the opposite sex (as well as some routines and games you can play out clubbing if you desire). Now that you have learnt these basics start applying them immediately, before you learn anything more. Just get out there and starting doing what these free resources say, it may not be the best way to lose weight or earn money but its a start and better than doing nothing.
Now that you have started keep learning and applying everything you learn, or simply taking note of it if it is not applicable to your life at this point in time. Keep learning, applying, rinse and repeat and you’ll find your goal will manifest all by itself, you’ll feel better than ever before and start to realize just how simple it is to achieve things in life, all you need is a little bit of determination and drive and you’ll get there.
