This video really touched and moved me. I realized that not only in the example displayed in this video but in everyday life. Words can be so effective when used properly.
Enjoy this video and I hope it touches you just as it touched me!
I know we all experience times when we feel like giving up. We’re demotivated, uninterested in pushing forward in our business. At times like this, you should revisit your “why”.
What is the reason you’re in your online business?
What income goals do you need to reach in order to live the life that you desire?
What form of commitment must you put forth to reach the goals that you’ve outlined.
Your why should be something that pushes you. Something that drives you to continue pushing, even on the bad days. Even on days when all you hear is “NO, I’m not interested in your business”
I think it is important that your why is clear. Not vague and stirs up some form of emotion when you think of it.
Make sure you have your why written down and that you read it DAILY.
Remember, to achieve your goals, you must have a level of commitment.
Commitment is doing the thing you said you’d do long after the mood you said it in has passed!
If you need help achieving your goals and need the right vehicle to get to where you want to be, I’d love to connect with you to see how I can help.
This is a story about 2 lumberjacks. One was named Tom and the other, Steve. One day they got into a competition to see who could cut down a tree the fastest. Tom, being the arrogant type said to Steve, “I can definitely cut down the tree faster then you! You’re so small!” Tom, was tall with big muscles. While Steve was small and skinny. As the competition went on, Tom was hacking away at the tree. He was going as fast as he could. Every time Tom took a quick breather and looked over at Steve, he was taking a break. Tom thought to himself, “I am definitely going to win!”
This process continued for awhile. Tom continued to hack away at his tree and every time he took a quick pause and looked over, he saw Steve taking a break.
Next thing he knew, Tom heard Steve yell out, “TIIIIMMMMBBEEERRRRR!!” And Steve’s tree fell down to the grown. Tom was dumb founded and didn’t understand how in the world Steve just beat him.
So he looked at Steve and said, “Every time I looked at you, you were taking a break. How did you beat me? How did you cut down your tree faster than me?”
Steve replied, “Not only was a taking a break when you looked over, I was also sharpening my axe!”
Because Steve had a sharper axe, he was able to cut down his tree faster!
Many network marketers who get started in this industry do not take the time to sharpen their axe. They come in with a dull axe and/or simply try to “make it” in this industry without focusing on the necessities, the smaller things that will help them succeed. Success comes based on compounding effort! Achievement is not about luck. It’s about strategy.
Is your axe sharpened?
I say “consider” because I realize affiliate marketing may not be for everyone.
For the many marketers who soley promote network marketing and MLM opportunities you may want to consider implementing affiliate products. Here’s why:
* No mass downline building necessary.
* It presents you with a great opportunity to increase revenue.
*If you currently have a blog or website with consistent traffic you can capitalizing on traffic you already have. Every time someone browses through your site or blog and makes a purchase on your merchant’s site, you earn a commission!
* Affiliate Marketing programs are free to join! Check out www.Clickbank.com for more details.
However, even if you have no intentions of becoming an affiliate marketer you may want to consider using affiliates to promote your own business. Using affiliates is an excellent idea and inexpensive way to promote ANY business. (online or offline)
It’s estimated that in the last year, $95 billion was transacted online as a direct result of affiliate marketing. And those affiliates earned over $6.5 billion in commissions.
This definitely may be a venture you may want to consider
