"What is Your Why??"
You've probably been asked this more than once and I can't recollect how long it took me to truly comprehend why that question was necessary.
You see your why is what motivates and really pushes you on.
If it's acute enough, you will do whatever it takes to create the outcomes that you envision for yourself.
However if it's not forceful enough, this business is so difficult that you may well become one of those who fall by the wayside.
When you're new to online marketing it's easy to get absorbed by the idea of making oodles of money and that's something that hardly any of us don't affirm as one aspect of our reason for getting involved in this business. Yet that aspiration alone will not be enough to sustain you and keep you picking yourself up, dusting yourself off and moving forward when the going gets tough..
Your why has to something inside you, for it to compel you hard enough to keep moving you forward when all you want to do is sit in the corner and lick your wounds, it has to be important enough that you get real agitated about in it's own right, something that makes you feel whole regardless of whether you have enough money to eat that day.
Finding your why is what helps you to stop chasing people and start attracting them to you, when you discover what makes you act, what really inspires you and you tap into that, others respond to the confidence and the higher level of self awareness that creates and they find themselves drawn by that confidence.
When you first got involved, were you told to draft your warm list and hit on them (family, friends, work colleagues), that's chasing, and it's a sure fire way to get those people switched off and avoiding you. Sure if you're fortunate you may have a few people on that list who are like minded and willing to do whatever it takes, but in all honesty, aren't there far more people on that list who switch off the minute that you start talking about your business? Learn to avoid them before they start to avoid you and think of you as the guy or gal that they least want to be anywhere near.
It's vital for you to take control of the situation if you want to stop chasing & start attracting prospects to you - make a conscious choice to spend time and energy on people who want to move forward with you rather than those who require so much support to take a step or two that they draw you backwards constantly.
