What is Your WHY ? How Bad Do You Want Success?

Good video.

I ended up being very successful in online but only after I had identified, very clearly, and written down my 'Why' My emotional 'Why' Before that I struggled for about 4 months.

In the coaching I do I regularly find that identifying the emotional why hasn't been done - or if an attempt has been made it hasn't been done correctly.

It's about what you want, at a visceral level. It's what will compel you to say "I will until" and leave you internally committed and taking consistent action.

Now you have to bring a bit of logic into it in terms of carrying out your due diligence on the company/opportunity/offers/products whatever but, having made a decision you need to commit until you win.

If no-one has shown you how to clearly find your emotional why look at this post:

I suppose that is why I am not successful in IM.

This is a great video. Complacency makes all "whys" ineffective. There has to be a passion to my why and when there is there's no stopping me.

My family is my why! I want success so damn bad, like nothing else in the world

Every time I see this video I feel the blood rushing through my veins. If you put this much motivation and drive into anything you do, there's no way you can't succeed.

Very good stuff guys, I like reading the responses. Keep it up

My WHY's are BIG...

I remember always struggling and never having any money. I remember people being able to travel and do fun things because of their mommy and daddy.. I couldn't I had to earn my money and think outside the box because --

I was SICK and TIRED of it.

I remember working at slave wage job getting bossed around getting told what I can and cant do --

I WAS FED UP with it and knew I deserved more !

I hated attending college or university to me it was a big waste of money and the traditional route doesn't get you very far these days.

And I DAMN SURE wasn't going to live off of the government!

I knew I wanted FREEDOM and the ability to do what I want when I want.
I knew deep down that working at some JOB til I was 65 wasn't my true potential!

Ever since I was younger I knew the traditional path wasn't for me.
Everyday I worked hard, focused, did whatever it took to find the alternative.

I would read everyday, I would watch videos, I would stay up til 5am if I had to.

I knew I was determined to live a better life some day and I wouldn't ever quit.

Deep down I have a burning drive to be successful, many people doubted me, and didn't believe in me growing up and I wasn't given a lot of great opportunities many people had.

But deep down I didn't care what anybody thought, because I believe in me !

So I treat my business seriously and take pride everyday in my work.

I didn't care if it took 1 year or 10 years, I knew my dream above all else was worth fighting for!

Giving back to the people that were always there for me is important is worth fighting for!

Helping others achieve success , is worth fighting for !

I don't want to live some average life, I want to live a great life.

Nothing comes easy or gets handed to us, you must EARN IT.

Your dream can be a reality if you start taking action and treating your business serious and believe!

I wish everyone ultimate success,

Matt

5 minutes of such inspirational message. Thanks very much. I do everything for my family. I am thinking mostly everyone does for family only.

Perhaps the biggest reason why I chose information marketing is that I would love to impact as many lives as I can on this planet in a very positive way.

For me it is enjoyable to help as many people as possible change their lives dramatically. Resurrecting dead dreams, businesses, being involved in come backs, whooooo!

I suppose one of the reasons I have not made a ton of money with IM is because I don't HAVE to. I want to so that I can do nice things for my girlfriend and myself but when you don't need an income source it's hard to motivate yourself to do what it takes to get one.

My reasons are similar to the reasons why Steve Jobs started Apple. I knew from a young age that I didn't just want to run a business that was another run-of-the-mill business like so many entrepreneurs run just to generate income and take care of myself.

I always knew that I wanted my life to mean something, and to leave a valuable impact on the world where people would not only benefit from the work I was doing, but the work I was doing would also push the human race forward and really contribute something valuable to the world that really made an impact and left a difference, and if I wasn't able to do that, and create something incredibly valuable for myself as well as others, I decided very early on that success (from a financial standpoint alone) wouldn't be worth having.

Nice 5 minute video!!

Having a reason to succeed online is only one part of being successful.

Family is the big one for me.
Making a living online without sacrificing the time you spend with your family is priceless.
The money will come once you realise it's not all about money. Yeah sure having money is great or not having to worry about it is even better, but once you start giving more and helping more, good things start to happen.

Mostly because I can.

What is your why? Maslows hierarchy gives us an indication of this. Once a persons basics needs are met like food, clothing, shelter and relationship he goes on to the next level that is doing something with passion and vision. without satisfying the basic needs it is very hard to get to the passion and find out the why? Most of us are stuck running around trying toget basic needs met. Well if do not meet them we have to do some face melting with the boss or your superior there comes the conflict and frustration.

If that is being worked out then money does not become an issue now we move on to the next level of passion. Here you stay until you master your skills after that you move to your next skill level finally there comes a point of self mastery and self awarness. This is the individual who is totally transformed.

He or she will not care about what others think of them. This is the highest level of transformation. When this level is reached one reaches nirvana. A buddha stage. Where nothing matters. good or bad passes by so easily. Talking about it is one thing but in reality can we achieve this?

Yes we can. I think for me it is still in the first step . My goal is money should not be an issue to do the things I want to do in life.

So in summary I am still in the basic level. I hope one day sooner this day will be met and move on to the next level and then the next and finally achieve self master. Know thyself.

What is my why? To attain nirvana. To experience the unbiased state of happiness. At this stage nothing matters. I do not mean recklessness or laziness. I mean totally happiness within us no matter what.

yes, how bad you want it!!! That's the number 1 secret to success

My why is so i can live in thailand

to answer your question: really really really bad and i won't stop untill i get there !

I have a hunger for succeding so the answer to your question is that I want badly to succed and I will not give up until I am where I want.

this is my WHY

- freedom to be an entrepreneur to live anywhere and work from no where.

this bad,

- willing to spend hours and hours to learn and keep learning
- willing to stay awake till wee hours to complete what needs to be done
- willing to spend weekends and public holiday to spend the whole darn day to focus on Internet and it's magic
- willing to keep pushing no MATTER how hopeless it looks like, right now! that no matter how bad it gets or become, i ain't giving up until i make it.

nice info.
thanks for giving such a impressive knowledge.

Wow!!!! My goal is the following
I am earning £8,000 + per month from my online business because I refuse to spend the rest of my adult life working for someone else and making them rich while I live a below average life until I die.

I will be able to live freely and help many people and delve into different projects with this money. My future family will have a good life and a solid up bringing.

Thanks for posting the inspirational video. I agree it is real important knowing your why. When you don't know your why and don't commit, it gets real difficult to carry on when the setbacks happen. It makes it so much easier to carry on.
And you also need the patience to see it through to the end.

My why is for my family and to give them the life that they deserve.

Success, together with happiness, is one of the major desires of men. Why everybody don't succeed is another story.

if you build it they will come

Great Video!
I am trying to earn an income online for my family and to help
others succeed like I have.

My purpose is my why. My purpose is to help all humans who want help or who are willing accept help to experience as much happiness, peace, abundance, prosperity, contentment, health, joy, success, satisfaction, life enrichment, serenity, excitement and elation as possible. This includes myself.

Awesome stuff, great video. We all make money to fulfill our dreams

I remember when I made this thread last year, such good answers from everybody.

If your why is bigger than your obstacles you won't let anything get in your way.

If you really want success bad enough you will find a way, the key is to never give up!
