"What is Your Why??"

You've probably been questioned about this several times and I don't even remember how long it took me to actually understand what that question meant.

You see your why is what motivates and really drives you on.

If it's forceful enough, you will do whatever it takes to create the success that you envision for yourself.

Likewise if it's not strong enough, this business is so difficult that you may well become one of those who fail.

When you're new to online marketing it's easy to get absorbed by the idea of making oodles of money and that's a factor that not many of us don't affirm as one part of our rationale for getting involved in this business. Yet that aim alone will not be enough to sustain you and keep you picking yourself up, dusting yourself off and moving forward when the going gets arduous..

Your why has to be an internal factor, for it to push you hard enough to keep driving you onwards 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 eat that day.

Finding your why is what helps you to stop chasing others and start attracting them to you, when you identify what makes you tick, what really drives you and you utilise that, others respond to the confidence and the increased self awareness that creates and they find themselves drawn by that confidence.

When you first began, were you told to generate your warm list and approach them (family, friends, work colleagues), that's desperate, and it's a fast way to get those people turned off and avoiding you. Sure if you're really lucky you may have a few people on that list who are fired up and ready 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 anywhere near.

It's crucial 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 forward with you rather than those who need so much support to take a step or two that they draw you backwards constantly.
