Do you feel safe and sound? I mean, right now, about how you are marketing your business? Chances are, if you are reading this, you are screaming inside your own head right this minute!
I know I am, and that is because tonight I had the realization that I could be doing more than I am right now to grow my business. Eek! What have I been waiting for?
Hmmm, this is what I call transparency in my business, and quite honestly, we could all use some. I mean, I am no genius, but after being on the webinar tonight with Mark Harbert I realized how silly it was to NOT be making videos like I said I would a long time ago.
Growing a home business, whether it’s MLM or affiliate marketing, makes no difference. The reality here is that you have to STOP being safe and sound, and get out of your comfort zone!
What I Am Doing to STOP Being Safe and Sound!
Okay, so I am exposing myself. This is okay, because again for me transparency is critical. I guess you could say I’ve had quite enough of folksNOT being transparent so for me, this is big deal.
So, how do I intend to stop being safe and sound in my business? Making videos for me is a new idea. Although I’ve done it before, I know it works, and it’s not even afraid of making videos. However, I’ve not done it, and sometimes it’s a matter of just making the time to do things.
We’ve all done it, and we have to decide for ourselves that we are:
- Going to make a change, stop talking about it and just go and do it
- Do it consistently
- Do it to the best of our ability
- Rinse, repeat until we get the result we desire
Make sense?
None of us can ever excel at anything unless we have determined in our own minds that thing we are going to do, and we take action on it. This my friends is the only time in which we can get out of our comfort zone, for real!
Nobody Makes Money by Being Safe and Sound
While you may think that it’s easier said than done, the doing is what has to be done. Okay, so that may read a bit like a riddle, but until you move your feet, nothing gets accomplished.
If you choose to stay in your area that is safe and sound, you lose. What fun is that? It’s much better to take a chance, and find out that you can do something challenging, and no it won’t kill you. Why does it take people so long? There is nothing to be afraid of when it comes to making positive change in your life and in your business.
I mean, I look at the bigger picture and think, why am I afraid to make a video? Millions of people are doing it, and trust me, they aren’t all that great! I am not falling off a treadmill, or getting run over by someone, or doing a dare that makes zero sense. I could find plenty of videos on YouTube or anywhere else for that matter that are awful.
Right?
So, tomorrow, I’ll stop being “safe and sound”, I’ll make that video, and start changing my business one video at a time!
