Dare to Dream Big
Published: Sun, 05/15/22
Oh my gosh I accidentally left this in draft instead of scheduling it for 9 AM EST - sorry about that - here you go:
Has anyone else reached that zero tolerance level for things that sit wrong with you? Because I have. I had 2 situations this week where, instead of giving any thought to it, I just reacted without apology. One was a very rude woman emailing me because she missed out on a limited PLR. All she had to do was say she missed it, and guess what? I create more! But she ridiculed my "silly personalized messages" and said I needed to be exposed (for delivering what my subscribers requested LOL).
The second was some guy who dabbles in marketing but never gains traction who said I was "fat and lazy." He was mad because I refused to turn into a "Karen" for some political situation he's all invested in. You can call me fat all day - doesn't faze me. But lazy? Coming from someone who hasn't done anything? Nope.
I don't even apologize for my reactions. I don't spend 2 seconds wondering what the proper response should be. I just let 'em have it. What I noticed is that in both situations, it's people who are angry about me not doing things THEIR way. So don't let anyone push you into running your business (or life for that matter) according to their demands. And don't allow yourself to be bullied or harassed because they can't be civil.
FYI: Tomorrow's email goes out at 9 AM EST and if you need to see what limited PLR is left and see what big, discounted store bundles are available, go here.
I'll have some new Limited PLR coming up tomorrow but also FYI: I'm working on an UNlimited bundle right now AND I'm planning a day where the limited PLR will launch at 1 AM EST so it gives people in other areas a chance to buy it. I can't do that often because the majority are 9 AM EST, but I want to repeat some slants that sold out and whip up some unique stuff for those who never seem to get one available. Stay tuned!
Dare to Dream
Now that you have the big picture about where you’re beginning, it’s time to decide your destination. Imagine you’re a 29 year old kid writing out your Christmas list. This isn’t about things like new curtains for the bathroom. It’s about the BIG dreams you have, if you could have anything in the world.What’s on Your List?
- A new car that will make grown men weep when you drive by?
- How about a beautiful sailing yacht so you can explore the seven seas?
- How about a nice vacation home on the beach?
- Or a mountain chalet where you can go in winter to watch the snow fall?
It’s even GOOD for you to want big things in life.
Do you know why?
Because those desires are what drives you to go out and change your world. As long as there is one more thing you want, you have something to work for. A reason to get up and make choices that drive your income.
Getting Comfortable with Your Big Dreams
For some people, it takes a little time to get comfortable putting your desires and dreams into words.
Especially when you first start dreaming big. Consider creating a vision board or even journaling if you’re simply uncomfortable vocalizing your goals.
One thing many of the most successful people in the world share in common is that they keep journals. These journals detail their business ideas, their personal goals, and their financial desires.
Vision boards are not quite the same thing as journals but can be extremely helpful for people who are more visually motivated. Plus, it can be fun to look at photos and images of the things you desire. Seeing those images each day can drive you to make the changes required to make those items yours.
Making Your Dreams Feel Natural – Even Tangible
The added benefit is the more you see these items, the more tangible they become. After a while, it isn’t only about seeing the objects of your desire each day but beginning to see yourself in them. Eventually, you’ll be able to smell the cocoa and hear the crackling fire from the hearth in your mountain chalet or smell the salty air of your new beachfront real estate.
The more comfortable you become having these BIG dreams (and admitting to having them), the faster you’ll be able to make them real for you and your family.
Exercise: Create a vision board of your biggest, scariest dreams.
Exercise: Start a daily journal habit and write out your goals as if they have already come true.
Journal Your Dreams
Ex: Today I put a down payment on a new house! Can’t wait to move in!
Ex: Today I took my dream car for a test drive. Going to order mine in ____ months!
Ex: I received an offer to be the keynote speaker at my favorite conference!
Ex: A book agent is interested in representing me!
Tomorrow we'll talk about generosity and abundance.
