"What is Your Why??"
You've presumably been asked this on several occasions and I don't even recall how long it took me to actually comprehend what that question meant.
You see your why is what motivates and really pushes you on.
If it's strong enough, you will do whatever it takes to attain the results that you crave for yourself.
Alternatively if it's not forceful enough, this business is so difficult that you will become one of the people who give up their dream.
When you're new to online marketing it's easy to get carried away with the idea of making oodles of money and that's a factor that very few of us don't think of as one aspect of our rationale for our interest in this business. Yet that factor alone will not be enough to support you and keep you picking yourself up, brushing yourself off and moving forward when the going gets arduous..
Your why has to something inside you, for it to push you hard enough to keep driving you forward when all you want to do is sit in the corner and lick your wounds, it has to be something that you get real agitated about in it's own right, something that makes you feel exceptional regardless of whether you have enough money to pay your bills.
Finding your why is what helps you to stop chasing people and start attracting them to you, when you discover what makes you effective, what really inspires you and you utilise that, others relate to the confidence and the enhanced self awareness that fosters and they begin to be drawn by that decisiveness.
When you first got involved, were you told to draft your warm list and work on them (family, friends, work colleagues), that's desperate, and it's a fast way to get those people switched off and avoiding you. Sure if you're fortunate you may have a couple of people on that list who are fired up and agreeable to do whatever it takes, but in all honesty, aren't there far more people on that list who switch off the minute that you start talking about your business? Learn to avoid them before they start to avoid you and think of you as the guy or gal that they least want to be around.
It's important for you to take control of the situation if you want to stop chasing & start attracting prospects to you - make a conscious choice to spend time and energy on people who want to move ahead with you rather than those who expect so much support to take a step or two that they drag you backwards constantly.
