Once again - things have been crazy!
My newish 9-5 has been putting me through the wringer… I admittedly kind of enjoy the work, and I get paid decently for overtime - and I’ve been putting in a lot of overtime lately. But one thing does remain true throughout all of this…
I still don’t want to work for someone else.
So, I’m working on a new online business, which will hopefully be launched in the next couple of weeks. I’m still going to do the website consultation and assembly, just not nearly as much as I did before. My plan is to have a few streams of income coming in (Like Pat teaches), and to be more than self sufficient in the next few years.
I say years because I know that’s how long it takes. A lot of people out there want a quick fix, and get upset when the money doesn’t just fly in immediately. I’ve observed a lot in the past half-decade, watching people such as Joe Vitale, Bill Hibbler, Craig Perrine, Pat, and numerous others who have been successful in the business do their thing to become successful. Time, patience, and the determination to follow through are essential. Let me repeat that: Time, patience, and the determination to follow through are essential.
Now, it’s one thing to understand this knowledge, but a totally different thing to actually practice it. I know that very intimately, because over the past three years or so, I’ve been completely lazy and inactive toward my goal - and its cost me! I continue to think “If I had started doing all of this diligently back then, I could possibly be in a similar position as Pat.” That’s a mindblowing thought!
After working at my 9-5 for only a few months, I am easily and constantly reminded about all of these things, and have been learning to self motivate myself - my biggest obstacle - to help me reach said goal.
Maybe I’ll write a couple of posts in regards to how I discover how to self motivate.
Until then… I should get back to work. See you on the flip side!
