If you could draw it on paper and make your side notes what would it look like?  You can and that is where you should start.  If you were in this business and had your own team and were seeing your dreams realized, where would you live?  Where would you be right now and what would you be doing? 

Your fear of having a mediocre life should be much greater than your fear of rejection.  What is your fear in starting your own home based business?  Is it fear of the unknown?  Is it fear of what those around you will think?  Is it fear of being alone and not part of the cubicle crew?  Is it fear of failure?  Did you know that the two greatest motivators are fear and greed and that 99 out of 100 people let fear rule their lives...  The first step toward success is simply to start.

If you always do what you've always done, you will always succeed in getting what you've always got.

This may at first sound somewhat pointed, but the world is full of unsuccessfuls.  Every town, city, county and country is full of people living a mediocre life.  Many of these people are happy to stay mediocre, but many have dreams, they want more, they know they are capable of more - but they don't really know where or how to start towards success.

What is keeping them from being successful has nothing to do with who they are.  Yes, things such as family and being born into wealth can certainly make it easier for some to be successful in wealth and family, but it isn't the only way by any means.

It certainly doesn't have everything to do with intelligence either.   Some no doubt have more intelligence than others and mental capability than others, but some of that has to do with them simply being exposed to things that others haven't been exposed to. 

So what is it that really enables some to be successful and others with the want to still not be successful?  Why is the 80/20 rule so prevalent? - 20% of the people make 80% of the money.

I believe the answer lies in one word, that word is ACTION.

The successful know that money is made when you're thinking about it, it is made when you are making things happen.  When you are working on your business, seeing people, creating your to-do lists, checking items off of your to-do list, making phone calls and talking to people.  Success or lack of success is a direct result of your actions, or not.

If you continually ask yourself this question; as a business owner would I be gladly paying an employee of mine to be doing what I am doing right now? 

Build your list, set your appointments and show your plan - build your list, set your appointments and show your plan!  The only difference between $3000 a month earnings in this business and $30,000 a month earnings is how many times you build your list, set your appointments and show your plan.

Quitting is a habit - do you need to break a habit?

What do I know about math?  I know that you can't make $250,000 a year on a $30,000 a year mentality.

Everything you want in life is on the other side of your fears.
