How do you eat an elephant?

How do you eat an elephant?

ONE BITE AT A TIME!

I applaud you all for being so ambitious and having large and wonderful visions of your ideal life…

BUT

To be honest…

You are freaking yourselves out…

Yes, you must figure out your ideal life, see it, feel it, focus on it…

But then ask yourself these questions…

1. ‘What is the first step?’
2. ‘What 1 step can I take RIGHT NOW to move me toward my ideal life?’

I’ve written about this before and many of you really got it and then I did something crazy…

I told you to approach people who are where you want to be and ask them how you can help them…

I opened a floodgate…

All I can say is HOLD ON!

Let’s back up a second…

I guarantee you there are several people who are where you ULTIMATELY want to be…

But all I want you to do is approach 3-5 people who are 1 or 2 steps further toward what you want than you are…

If you want to be a real estate mogul and you’ve never done a deal, I applaud you for having the vision of your real estate empire…

But unless you possess a great amount of confidence I wouldn’t suggest trying to approach Donald Trump…YET!

2 things I said in that last sentence are VERY important…

1. Confidence: We have to advance toward our goals in steps NOT because it’s impossible to achieve these things over night, but because normally we don’t have the confidence and certainty and faith that they can, so we build confidence and certainty and faith by taking BITE SIZE steps toward our goals.The good news about this is that this may seem like the slower route, but I promise you that it is the much faster journey!
2. YET: It’s important to realize that you aren’t (most likely) going to approach Trump yet…but if you go forward one step at a time, eventually even Trump will be another bite size step.

So my friends…

Know what the big picture is, but then please eat the elephant 1 bite at a time!

Once you reach a mini goal, CELEBRATE IT and then ask yourself what the next step is…

Leave me a comment and let me know your next step…

Go Big!

Entrepreneur By Choice or Necessity – 3 Tips You Need Now

The world is changing…

I’ve been coaching people for years to find their passion and turn it into a business. I have coached people just starting out and I have helped current business owners maximize their businesses to multi million dollar businesses and there was one thing that all of my clients had in common…

They were Entrepreneurs by choice.

But now things are different…

People who never thought about starting their own business are suddenly forced to think about it. People are getting laid off or living under the impending doom of being laid off or at the least having their pay significantly cut and it is turning people into Entrepreneurs not out of choice but out of necessity.

There is a tidal wave of people who feel that they have to attract money fast AND they can NO LONGER rely on their job to do it.

• I see great possibility in this time…
• I see the opportunity for many to actually discover something they love and turn it into a business…
• I see the potential freedom for all of these people…

BUT I know there are lessons they will need to learn and because many of you are now entrepreneurs by necessity, I want to help you shorten the learning curve as much as possible.

• I know you feel like you need to attract money fast…
• I know you feel like you lack the luxury of time to discover what it is you really want to do…
• I know you are seriously pushing your comfort zone…

Whether you are an entrepreneur by choice or necessity, I know you are going through all of this because I went through it too and I can help you avoid some of the mistakes I made and shorten your journey where mine was long and painful.

I have received more emails than I can count from my subscribers telling me about this opportunity and that opportunity and that they don’t know what to do and which direction to go and how not to make mistakes. I know if you have someone guiding you openly and honestly you are more likely to start to succeed quickly!

So let me give you 3 tips right now:

1. I know you feel rushed, but you MUST take a few minutes to decide what areas of focus actually excite you. I promise you that when you start as an entrepreneur, if you start in an area you love, your chances for success increase by almost 80%.

2. Do your due diligence! There are 8 million people out there saying they have the opportunity that will make you a millionaire or financially free or an extra 10k per month. Some of them are legit and many are not. Do your due diligence. Find out everything you can about them and their success rate. Ask people you respect if they know anything about them. ALWAYS talk to someone at the company first before you dive in. How you are handled now is a great indicator of how you will be handled if you use their system or product or coaching.

3. Stick with 1 thing! I talk about this a lot in my coaching…I call it the ‘Something Shiny’ Epidemic. This is where you are so excited about an idea that you are sure is going to make you the money you need fast that you jump in, BUT the second another opportunity comes to you, you are lured to it because it seems like it might get you money faster. Trust me…I lived like this for a while and all this did was put me in debt. It wasn’t until I took a second to only look at opportunities that excited me THEN did my due diligence and THEN chose 1 and STUCK WITH IT that my life turned around. Learn from my mistakes on this one!

Leave a comment — I always love to see what you’re thinking!

Your time is now and I am excited to help you on your journey!

What is Freedom to You?

Today I’ll start with a question:

What is freedom?

Not by definition…I’m asking a more personal question and that is…

What is freedom to you?

It’s different for everyone.

My opinion is that freedom is more valuable than money.

Here we are in the ‘Land of the Free’ but when I look around I see people who feel caged, like they are on the ‘Effect’ side of someone else’s ‘Cause’.

If I asked everyone I met what it was they wanted, I guarantee you if we broke the answer down, we’d find that what they really want is to be free. We all connect freedom to something different, for some that’s money, for some it’s love, time, connection, travel, choice…the list is endless.

The challenge is this…we need to know what freedom is to us if we are going to achieve it (we are all free already, but what will make us realize and feel that freedom is different for everyone.)

I have received quite a few emails recently about ‘Visualizing’ and how to effectively use visualization…

One of the best exercises I can give you is to picture what ‘Freedom is to you’.

Remember do it in great detail…

Don’t tell me Freedom is lots of money, or love or anything else you may answer…

Get specific, tell me what your day will be like when you feel free. Don’t just paint the main part of the picture, fill in the background with as much color and detail as you can.

Leave me a comment, send me an email; I want to know what Freedom is to you. The more detail you give me the more I can help you achieve what it is you desire.

We’ll talk more about finding your purpose and making money from what you love, but based on the questions I’ve been getting from you, I realized we needed to spend more time on getting specific.

I want to know what you desire…share your picture with me…and keep coming back so we can take you step-by-step on your journey…

GO BIG!
