Certain recurring questions seem to have no answers.
What is the meaning of life? Are we the only feeling beings in the universe? The ending of ABC’s drama “Lost”—why, why, why??
And “how can I work less and make more?”
Tracy did.
And this is the story about Tracy.
When I first met her several years ago, she was working on several business ideas, but hadn’t figured out her direction.
So, of course, she wasn’t making any money.
Lots of ideas. No income.
Do you ever feel that way? Like there are lots of options. And no options. And you go around and around? And there’s no exit from that circle?
Flash light years ahead to today…Tracy is rolling.
She’s working less and making more (and yes, I know making something would be more than making nothing; I’m talking about really more)!
She got clear, focused, on her best option among many.
Tracy settled in on one of her many options. She chose. She created the appropriate services and started marketing. Tracy got clients, though not always the clients she preferred. But they paid. It was a reasonable start.
And…oh…her business enables her to work from anywhere.
While Tracy hasn’t reach her BIG goal yet, she’s on her way.
Tracy has achieved the independence…the freedom…to make money on her terms from wherever she might be.
You want some of that, too, right? That’s what you tell us.
Within two years Tracy reached 5 figures. This year she’s targeting 6 figures.
During this month of July…this month of Independence, of Freedom…what do you want to set yourself free from (working for someone else? Not making any money??) What do you want to be free to do?
Make Tracy your role model.
Choose your path when you have many. Choosing “something” is almost always better than choosing nothing – sitting still.
Maybe you’ve been on your path for years. Yay! What’s your next BIG decision? Make it.
You’ve got a vision in front of you. You want freedom.
Freedom comes by choosing, following a plan, path, action, measurement, adjustment, action, adjusted plan, action, measurement, adjustment, action, action, action, adjusted plan, action.
What do you want to be free from? See your end game. Write it down. Plan and get into action.
And use Tracy as your inspiration.
Happy Freedom Month!
