I was watching this clip from the last “Rocky” and it really hit a point that I have been trying to make to someone recently. You know that in life we get beat down and then like the flee in the jar story where a guy put a flee in a jar, now that flee can jump out with no problem. The guy put a lid on the jar and the flee would jump up and hit the lid and it would do it over and over again. After a while the flee adjusted the height that it would jump so it would not hit the lid. After a while the guy took the lid off and the flee still would jump just short of where the lid used to be. Now we do that in everyday life, we get beat down by life and so we adjust and then we are prisoners to our misery. You have to step outside of your comfort zone to advance. You have to push yourself to succeed. Like in any sport you have to practice and work hard to win. You have to always strive to get better in whatever you do. You can’t get confortable in your situation and then complain that you don’t make enough money or your home based business is not growing. I was recently talking to a business associate and he was complaining that his work from home business was not growing. I ask him what he had been doing on a daily basis to build his business. He replied that he had talked to a couple of people and sent a few emails. I advised him that basically he was doing nothing and expecting his business to grow. Now the internet is huge and growing all the time. Yes you have the potential to expand beyond you dreams and expectations but you have to work at it. No business will grow itself, you must put in the time and effort to make it happen. (There is more below the video)
You can’t blame the opportunity or someone for you not succeeding. You have to take responsibility for your own business. You have to be strong and be willing to take the hits. In your business it is just like what Sylvester Stallone says in the last Rocky movie. “It is not about how hard you get hit but, about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward, about how much you can take and keep moving forward that is how winning is done. Now if you know what your worth the go out and get what your worth, but you gotta be willing to take the hits and not pointing fingers and saying your aint where you want to be because of him or her or anybody, cowards do that and that aint you. Your better than that!”
If you want success in your home based business you need to step up and do it. There is nobody you can blame other than yourself. You can do it! I know you can but you have to start believing in yourself and when life hits you keep pushing forward. Life is all about struggles but getting the fight information and hooking up with the right people can help but if you don’t believe that you can do it then you never will. There is a whole lot to be said about how powerful words are! Say to yourself “I CAN DO IT” and then go out and do it! Please comment on this and share it with your friends! Thanks!
