Why,Why – Are You Sure?

If you’re involved in a home based business, MLM or network marketing opportunity you’ve heard again and again that there must be a “WHY” in your life in order for your business to succeed. When your business is struggling, having a personal or financial “vision” sure makes those “lots of work, but no income” days seem easier to accept.
If the WHY is so important, then why don’t your leaders spend more time helping you understand? Maybe I can help.
Understand that your position in life right now… is the result of the decisions you’ve made in the past! Ouch! Ya, that one hurt. Life isn’t just a series of unrelated decisions that somehow will get us to where we hope to be simply by some force of luck or astrology.
But just maybe, those decisions have been a helpful resource to achieving your new goals! Each of us has great potential within us, but greatness is a choice. It’s not our destiny. In the pursuit of our dreams we are faced with trials, failures and disappointments as we travel down life’s path.
John Lennon wrote, “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.”
Every event in our lives has been the result of a decision. Review and ask yourself, “How have those decisions impacted where I am today?” “How have the results of those decisions changed my life, finances, relationships, job…?” “Do you see a trend, a sequence of events as a result of those decisions?” “Positive, negative?”
If you’re not where you’d hoped to be at this time in your life, then now is a great time to evaluate your journey, AND your WHY. If your life’s journey; based upon the decisions you’ve been making in the past,… and the decisions you are making for your future… have nothing in common with your WHY….then your WHY is worthless!
Your personal and professional decision making must have a laser beam focus on your WHY!
Make a decision not to do those things that don’t move you closer to your WHY. Stop fooling yourself that you’re doing your best. What have you done today in support of your WHY? Are you still making the same decisions with hopes of different results?
Some good news? The decisions that placed you in your current position… have also prepared you to visualize your dream!
“If your mind can conceive it, you can achieve it” Napoleon Hill.
Speaker and author Les Brown says it well, “In order to do something you’ve never done, you’ve got to become someone you’ve never been.”
Personally. Professionally. Spiritually.
Why Not?
