How to Cure the Blahs 12


Here’s a sure-fire cure for the blues, that will get you moving today.

Ever get the blahs?

I know I have.

It feels like life is crushing you down.  You want to dig your way out, but you just can’t seem to get moving and what good does anything do anyway?

Life is tough, complicated and relentless.

It just keeps piling on when you are down and holidays, smiling people and joy all around can sometimes just make you feel worse.

Bah humbug!

You think the new year will be filled with nothing but tax headaches, legal headaches, things breaking down, broken friendships, people that just don’t care and who let you down or worse yet just do nothing to show you that you are loved and appreciated.

You think … I’m not the problem here!  The world is!

Want a cure for that feeling?

Here’s my suggestion …

Try doing something.

Now I know you are doing things right now.

You are are probably breathing and likely thinking, trying, worrying, blaming, aching, moaning and groaning.

That’s not what I’m talking about.

I’m talking about DOING something  and I don’t care what as long as it meets two criteria.

1. It needs to be positive.

2. It needs to make a difference.

  • Say something nice to someone
  • Open the door for someone
  • Encourage someone
  • Donate your time or money
  • Visit someone elderly
  • Listen to someone

And if you are thinking …

I’m the one having the problems here! I’m the one who needs help!  People should be reaching out to me!

Just for one week, one day, one hour, one minute if that’s all you can manage …. forget that part.

Because if you are making a difference for someone else…

You’re worth something.

And eventually you’ll figure that out.

And that makes life so much better.

All the best,

About Ken McArthur

Ken McArthur is the founder of ConnectLab.live, an AI relationship-intelligence and warm-intro platform that helps founders who are raising find the funds that fit and the people who can introduce them, and helps fund managers connect with the founders they back. He was recently accepted into Harvard Business School Foundry. He also writes Raise Smarter, a daily newsletter on what's really moving in early-stage fundraising. Ken challenges us to realize we ALL have an impact, whether we want to or not, on thousands of people we touch in our day-to-day lives, and he shows that simple things make a HUGE difference. ConnectLab.live grew out of that belief. Connection is the currency of the 21st Century, and the right introduction can change a company's future. Long before ConnectLab, Ken was the popular host of live events that brought together top-level marketers, entrepreneurs, business owners, corporations and non-profit organizations to build multi-million dollar joint venture relationships. He has managed product launches ranked in the top 400 sites on the Internet and is regularly asked to speak at leading marketing events. He created AffiliateShowcase.com, a pioneering affiliate program search engine and directory. He also founded the MBS Internet Research Center, which conducted the world's largest survey ever attempted on creating and launching successful information products. Ken was the official mentor for Sterling Valentine as he took his launch from zero to over $100,000 in less than 8 days, a proof of concept documented in Info Product Blueprint. Today he puts that same skill for connecting people and launching ideas to work for founders and the investors who back them.
