How Expensive Is Your Fear?

 

So what’s going to be different about the next five years?  Are you going to continue to allow fear to hold you back, are you going to allow fear to control your life and your hopes for financial freedom?  What are you afraid of anyhow?  You’re afraid of what other people will think about you right?  Well the sad truth of the matter is … other people don’t really care about you … they are just like you, they’re more concerned about what other people are thinking about them.

 

 

 

 

The Secret To Successful Goal Setting

 Want to know the secret behind successful goal setting?  Passion!

Think about it.  How inspired are you to achieve a goal if you’re not passionate about it?  Are you going to have the “whatever it takes” attitude if you don’t have passion?

Probably not.  And that is why most people fail to achieve their goals, because there is no passion behind them.  Think about the athletes in the Olympics, how could these
remarkable individuals achieve their goals and dreams if they were not fueled by passion?  They wouldn’t be able to endure the years of hard work, sacrifice and training if they weren’t
passionate would they?  It seems that we see the most passionate individuals in the word of sports and entertainment.

This is one of the reasons I encourage women to start businesses that they are passionate about, because you will have challenges and obstacles that may seem insurmountable along
the way, if you’re fueled by passion you will stay the course and you won’t quit when the going gets tough.

Sure you want to make alot of money and become a Millionaire Diva, but you also want to do something each day that makes you happy and gives your life purpose.  This is living
a life of passion and prosperity, and the two do go hand in hand.  Let me ask you: What do you love to do?  What are you good at?  What do you think you were born to do?  Take 
some time to think about these questions and you’ll find your passion and purpose in life.  Then brainstorm a little bit and you’ll be able to figure out a way to develop your passion into
a business.

My purpose statement for my life is: To inspire, educate and empower women to create a life of passion and prosperity.

Now it’s your turn, what is your purpose statement.  Write it down and use it to fuel your goals.  If your business is based upon your passion how could you possibly fail?  You won’t.

Each and every one of you has a special “gift” to share with the world and usually you can discover your “gift” by exploring your passion.  Explore your passion, define your purpose and
then take steps every single day to achieve your goals and soon you will be living your dream life … a life of passion and prosperity.

Weekly Hot Tips For Business Success!

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?

 I love to ask the question “Who wants to be a millionaire?”, everyone gets so excited! Want to get a crowd of people sitting on the edge of their seats listening to every single word you say? Tell them you’ll share the secrets to becoming a millionaire!

Then just for fun, I ask the following question; “Who wants to work 60-80 hours each week, have all their friends and family telling them that they’re crazy, “it’ll never work”, no money or time for vacations, work through the weekends, pinch pennies till it hurts and feel really lonely most of the time because no one else believes in you or your dream?”. Funny thing about that question, no one says they want that kind of life. But guess what, that’s how most millionaires start off.

I know there are lots of people out there talking about how easy it is to become a millionaire, that there’s no struggle involved. Okay, if it’s that easy and there’s no struggle involved why isn’t everyone a millionaire then? I’ll let you in on a big secret … it isn’t easy!

Now remember I said it wasn’t easy, I didn’t say you couldn’t do it. The question is are you willing to make the commitment and do whatever it takes to create the life of your dreams or are you going to settle for mediocrity? Do you want spend the rest of your life, thinking I shoulda, coulda, woulda?

Now I’m not an authority on this, but I think we only go through this great big, incredible adventure called life …once. So why not make your life the best life you could ever possibly imagine! All those well-meaning people around you telling you what a failure you’ll be, those are their insecurities talking, it has nothing to do with you and what you’re capable of. Besides it’s your life not theirs, why would you live your life based on what they want you to do?

Do you want to come to the end of your life and realize that you were living someone else’s dream and not yours? I’m not saying everyone wants to be a millionaire or should be a millionaire. But I do think everyone has a dream for their life, so whatever your dream don’t you owe it to yourself to go out and live it?

Who cares if your dream seems wild and crazy, if it’s what you want and you’re willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen, think about the wild ride you’ll have along the way. Sure you’ll get scared, you’ll doubt yourself and the sacrifices may be many. But what an incredible, happy life you’ll live! And isn’t that what life is truly about … being happy? So what’s your dream? Who wants to be a millionaire?
