There’s something simple that separates the average from the successful.
Average people have hopes & dreams.
Successful people have goals & plans.
IS YOUR BUSINESS WHERE YOU ULTIMATELY WANT IT TO BE?
Most of ours aren’t. Most of us want more. The problem is, we’re not entirely sure of what exactly “more” is.
Imagine getting in your car and wanting to go somewhere “better” than where you are now. You start driving, wasting gas, stopping in places only to realize that was no better than where you came from. Now sure how you got here, unsure of which way to go next.
The dream of “somewhere better” is completely subjective. Subjective dreams can never be fulfilled because you cannot measure them.
But when you have a destination in mind, the road becomes clearer. You know what turns you need to make, what obstacles you need to overcome, you’ll know when you’re getting close— you’ll know when you’ve made it.
the same principle applies in business, and I CAN PROVE IT.
I started my business in January of 2017 with no idea of what may come. All I knew is I wanted to be my own boss and create my own future.
That first year was really tough. I tried a million things. I listened to both good and bad advice. I was on a 12-month roller coaster going from extreme highs to lows that had me questioning my decision to make this entrepreneurial leap.
In 2018, my second year in business, all that changed. I wrote down one simple goal: $100,000 in sales.
I had a new compass— my long-term goal gave me direction, and helped me set short-term goals & milestones that kept me on track… focused on turning my goal into reality.
Not only did I hit that goal, I surpassed it. It wasn’t because of some “killer sales strategy” or the teachings of some “internet guru”… it was because I had clarity of knowing exactly where I was trying to go.
