My story and Saturday tip!

2 replies
Hello and happy Saturday all,

I have been a yo-yo internet marketer for the past 7 years, going in all hog and then leaping back out because I got scared, lazy or saw a shiny new money making report and now I'm back again. This time I know that I will make it - I have proved before that I can make money and I could kick myself from not focusing on one thing and sticking with it from the beginning but I believe that happened to teach me a lesson. It is different this time as I understand myself more and know what makes me tick and also I don't have an overwhelming need for money - I was desperate back then and saw it as my only way out now - which was a none starter right there! I have made a choice this time and it's because I really enjoy internet marketing and I want to be a success because I 'believe' I can.

I had a big issue with procrastination and starting things but never finishing them, this was because I ran away from fear instead of facing it. So what's changed? I went travelling and realised if I can go to a new country on my own, find work, somewhere to live, make new friends I can conquer most things. I visited some really poor countries and that made me put my life into perspective and not worry about money in the same way and just enjoy life.

When I returned from my travels last year I decided that I wanted to become a life coach as I've always had a passion for listening to people and supporting them and making a positive difference in their lives. So I went on an intensive course and am now an ICF accredited coach. I did it - I started and finished something!! This gave me extra fire in my belly and the confidence I needed, so now it's time to build up my enterprise and make a name for myself on and offline. Through growth I know I will always be out of my comfort zone but I can see where it will lead me and that is more exciting than staying put!

So my Saturday tip of the day is: "learn about yourself, how you work and operate and go on the continuous path of self improvement, it will work wonders in all areas of your life. When you feel like stopping, face that fear and get through the other side. Don't be afraid to ask for help and don't be affected by the negative people that don't want you to grow and change.

Have a wonderful day

    TravellingMissie, thanks for this. Especially like the "face that fear" part because more often than not it's the things we feel fear about that we most need to do.
