5 Ways to Keep The Dream Alive And LIVE It!

Ok so this is a mini rant. I've had it up to my eyebrows with excuses and reasons why people aren’t interested in breaking new ground or at least be ambitious enough to make their lives count. First things first; don't give up on your dream! Don't do it! The only reason you should give up on it is if you are certain that it’s not your dream or it’s a dream you formulated in your mind because you just wanted to prove a point or show people you could do it. That's not what I am taking about. I am referring to the vision in your mind’s eye that won’t leave you alone and when you think back to it, you come alive and you just know this is what you were created to do. Believe it or not a dream has been planted in the heart of each and every one of us and it is our responsibility to protect it and keep it alive. From all I have seen, heard and experienced, these are a 5 ways to be double sure that your dreams don’t die in a hurry:

About to give up.....Sigh...

I'm tired....
Nothing seems to be working....
It's like trying to squeeze water out of a rock....
I can't, I just cant.....
There's no point.....
I'll never get it done....
I just don't have what it takes....
Who would hire me anyway?...
Why won't anyone help me?....
Am I cursed?....
It's no good....
I'll probably be horrible at it....

Please feel free to add as many downers as you can to grow the chain of pity party favourites. The worst thing you can do to yourself is to walk around thinking the world owes you something at every turn. 

What does business success mean to you?

Was just doing some reading and wondered aloud....What does business success mean to you? What would you have in place and what would you be able to do to consider yourself successful in business? 


I'll start with two of mine. 

1. I would want to have systems that work on their own and progressively generate income with or without my presence. 
2. I would consider a business successful if it is able to not only stand as a product in itself but that mentoring is an integral part of the business.

In short, no stress, plenty money, and happy people...lol!


Lots of business owners are looking for ways to stay motivated and one suggestion is a vision board. Its basically where you put together your dreams and aspirations for the business using words, pictures, and whatever else has a clear ability to translate your vision visibly. Really considering making one. I have always been a proponent of writing your goals down but have never really thought of doing a vision board. Will let you know how it goes. 


So what do you consider a successful business enterprise? Be as open and large minded as possible. The bigger the picture the better!
