I hope you are doing well and are moving forward with your goals.
One thing I have learned is that you have to position yourself to be successful. Get ready for your breakthrough. Don’t sit around hoping that something will happen that will be your big chance at success. Get ready NOW… do what you can do NOW, prepare for your awesome life NOW.
But Nia, how am I supposed to do that you might ask… I don’t even know what opportunities are out there so how can I prepare for them? What is it that I am supposed to be doing right now?
I have the privilege of being mentored by a 7-figure entrepreneur. It is such a blessing. This is the advice that he gave me. I told him I would be sharing it with you.
- Become a world class practitioner in what you are learning. Start now.
If you have entrepreneurial aspirations, have you determined your niche? Is it health and fitness? What is your focus in health and fitness? Is it weight loss, or strength and stamina, or nutrition & healthy eating or mindfulness & mental /emotion well-being? Or maybe you are more interested in internet marketing as a niche. Do you want to do affiliate marketing, multi-level marketing, course marketing or agency marketing? There are so many options. Don’t spread yourself too thin.
It’s for sure we can’t be experts at everything but we can focus our time and attention in an area that truly interests us. That’s where you make your investment… that’s where you spend your energy and creativity, and sweat equity.
Focus on what you enjoy… what floats your boat … and learn as much as you can about that industry.
To paraphrase Confucius, do what you love and you will never work a day in your life. BUT if you do what you love it will be contagious and you can inspire others to take an interest in what you are doing.
Sooo learn as much as you can about the industry that excites you. That way when the opportunity comes … and it will come, you’ll be ready to seize the day. Don’t be caught sleeping. If you aren’t diligent you might not even recognize the opportunity that will be staring square in the face just waiting for you to grab it.
Most of the successful business people that I have had the pleasure of meeting and spending time with have said that the opportunities presented themselves as they were in pursuit of their dreams
…by going after every chance to learn and grow… not in chasing a get rich quick idea or going after the almighty dollar. They followed their passion and let their passion guide them.
Remember my mentor and coach I told you about? I get insight from someone who understands the business world and how to be successful in it. He told me that most businesses fail because the focus is on the financial aspect of the business rather than on the customers the business was created to serve. What better way to focus on your customers than to do what you love and share that passion with someone else? That way you’re both winners!
I hope these pearls of wisdom are helpful to you… I know they have benefitted me greatly that’s why I’m sharing them with you.
Here’s to a vibrant and healthy life!
