You know running a Home Based Business is no different functionally than that of a Fortune 500 Company. The difference is, a Fortune 500 Company, has been planning for and will be planning for the years to come. However, all of those Companies, started from a Garage “See Amazon”, small 100 Sq Foot Home Office “See PayChex”, or the bedroom of a Teenage Boy, who sold a chunk for 700 million “See FaceBook”. Here is what they and you have in common:
- Each one of these People had a Desire and Passion for what they do.
- Each Entrepreneur had a “Y”. A Clear, Definite, and Emotional “Y”.
- Each Entrepreneur had an Emotional and Logical Strategy. What does that mean…lets jump into it…..
First, you MUST in achieving any goal, believe in who you are and what you are doing. If you don’t have belief, you will never achieve your short term and long term goals. Yes, you can have moments of brief financial gain, kinda like winning a couple hundred bucks on a slot machine, but not coming close to why you are building a business. Understand, if you don’t fully believe in what you do, and have a real passion and desire for it, you will never be able to weather the ups and downs, because your not emotionally committed.
Second, your “Y” may be the most critical element in your plan. Understand, that building a Business, a real sustainable business, will require you to deal with alot. Ya’ know, the Internet provides an incredible service in hope and opportunity for abundance, no question. However, it also feeds into the most deadly disease out there….Instant Gratification. There are so many websites and blogs and forums that feed into the notion for $19.95 and one hour a week of work you to can be an Internet millionaire. That is simply not true. Never has been, never will be. You most likely got involved in your Business Opportunity, because they were able to tap into your emotions, get you excited or scared about your life, your future, or your income. Well, this is how you construct your “Y”:
- “Y” must be real, tangible, and emotional.
- “Y” must be something that you would commit to no matter the price or consequence.
- “Y” must be something that if you wrote it out would contain “POWER” words, and generate call to action feelings.
- “Y” must be the thing that will make you work nights, weekends, mornings, holidays, picnics, days out, cause you to miss on some of life’s moments until you achieve your goals.
- “Y” must be the thing that you draw on when the world is telling you to stop and give up…your “Y” tells you to move forward, your close, don’t stop, you are a champion, you will succeed.
- “Y” must be your Business Partner, when your family and friends have long deserted your idea, business, and are piling on the negativity.
- “Y” must be the reason you celebrate the good times. It is the reason it got you there…
Without a strong “Y”, you will find that you will give up on dreams, goals, and aspirations. You will allow doubt, complacency, negativity, and laziness into your Business and Your Life. I promise you that once you attain a clear and real “Y”, the rest is just so easy….
