A very interesting week has just gone by and now the weekend has come. What has changed in our world of our online business? Not much…
One of the hardest things to comprehend while building our online business was it was not growing at the pace we would like. Of course, we all want to be overnight Millionaires Right?
That may work in your fantasy world or if you win the Lottery, but you’re probably not going to see those results if you are building a business centered around making money online, (Not yet anyway…)
Since we have been working overtime at the machine shop, it has really put a damper on being able to expand what I want to do with our online business. Taking just 2 hours a day away from our normal schedule was hard enough to deal with, now I find myself working on the weekends as well.
I was able to submit my tracking sheets for my “Monthly Results Review” and was surprised to hear that I was doing well. I had one sale and one refund where the customer decided not to proceed with the purchase. (Did I mention, “I had one sale!”)
We can come up with 1000 different excuses of why our business is not making money. The fact of the matter is it takes time. Earlier I mentioned something about becoming an overnight Millionaire… I also added the words “Not yet Anyway”. Let me explain why I made that statement.
If you are making forward progress, you will Succeed! You must! Your “WHY” is counting on you and the only way for you not to Succeed is to stop and give up. If I made $1 on a sale of a product, I am now only $ 999,999.00 away from becoming a Millionaire. I know you might be thinking “That is not even close”. I will tell you, “I’m $1 closer than I was!” 🤑
At the farm, we have this one hill we used to slide down when it snowed… (In Alabama, that doesn’t happen very often, so we take advantage of it when it does) It took a while to climb the hill because it was slick and you had to drag your box, piece of tin, VW hood, (whatever you decided you would use to slide down the hill) all the way to the top before you were able to enjoy that extremely quick ride back to the bottom of the hill.
Was it worth it?
HECK YEA!
We had a blast! There was even a HUGE chance that you would run into a frozen “Cow Pie” occasionally, but it was AWESOME! Hitting that “Cow Pie” was part of the ride. It NEVER stopped us from repeating the process.
You must climb your hill first, once you get to the top of your hill, you must prepare for the ride, and even though you may start off slow on the “downhill” side, be prepared to pick up speed. (No matter how many “Cow Pies” are in your path)
My “WHY” has already made me a Millionaire!
As long as I keep moving forward, the money will follow, no matter how many “Cow Pies” I might hit along the way!!!
