Path To Success
Hello, my friend and future millionaire.
Welcome to this episode of The Money Wheel.
My name is Don Shade.
Back in the beginning, when I started talking about putting together your Million Dollar Roadmap, I gave you a list of several things to be able to do and kind of align yourself up for success.
How are those things going?
Have you been working on it?
Is your dream board exactly where you want it to be?
Have you been able to pull anything off of your dream board?
Have you gotten our Money Mastery course and started really looking at your finances?
Have you looked into our Time Mastery course and started to realize the power in an hour?
Do you know what I mean when I say about the 25th hour or is that just something you heard during a podcast episode or read in our emails?
You can reach out and get my new book, Make Every Day Your Payday.
It talks about using the 25th hour in there.
I’m not going to tell you what it is right here.
You can get the book and it’ll open the door to that level of success.
What it comes down to is this: what is it in your life that you’re no longer willing to tolerate?
Why are you here?
Why are you reading this email?
What are you looking to change?
The first step to walking down the path to success in this or anything, you have to be honest with yourself about exactly where you stand.
Once you have all your cards laying on the table, and you’re totally honest with yourself saying, ‘okay, this is exactly where I am’.
‘I’m broke’, or ‘I don’t have the skills to build an online business, I’m going to need help’.
Or ‘I don’t know where the time’s going to come from’.
Whatever the excuse is at this point, these are all hurdles that we can overcome.
It doesn’t matter what the situation is, but at some point you have to be willing to start.
Nobody can steer a parked car.
Everybody likes the idea of ‘I’m building my Million Dollar Roadmap’, but they don’t want to take the first step.
They want to keep listening to my podcast, reading my emails, and they think magically that it’s just going to happen for them.
When life doesn’t work that way, you’ve got to be willing to put your work boots on.
You’re gonna have to learn some things that maybe you’re not comfortable with.
Maybe you have to pay some people to do some skills for you that you don’t necessarily have right now.
But part of the reason that you’re reading this right now, is because you want change in your life.
One of the things you want to decide right here right now is: what do you want that change to be?
And: what are you willing to do to get it?
Look back over some of the lists that I wanted you to create.
Ask yourself:
- What is my skill set?
- How much time do I have in a day that I could work on a business to help me get financially free?
- What does financial freedom look like to me? (It’s different for everybody).
- What does your dream life look like? (And I don’t mean hitting the lottery).
What would it look like for you to just be comfortable, to not worry about what bills were coming in the mailbox, to be able to take your family out for dinner and eat exactly what it is you want on the menu instead of what you can afford?
How many times have you got a meatloaf dinner when you really wanted a steak (and some of you are going to overlook that comment)?
‘Oh, I do far better than that’.
You say that, but you pull out a credit card and pay for your meal.
Are you really doing better than that?
I know what you’re thinking, ‘Don, that’s a slap in the face’.
Yeah, you’re right, it is.
It’s designed to be, I’m here coaching you to make the big changes in your life.
We’re going to set up a life that you don’t have to take a vacation from.
When are you going to get serious and decide, ‘I’m going to do exactly what he tells me.’?
And then you’ll be walking down the journey of putting together your Million Dollar Roadmap.
I know there’s some of you out there that have already done it and you’re well on the path.
And I’m proud of you for taking those steps, it’s not easy to do.
It’s not easy to fit this into your already busy life.
But what I want to make sure of is: as we’re walking down this path and I’ve done a couple of hundred episodes, is that you’re putting the action behind it.
God, wouldn’t give you the dream if He didn’t give you a way to fulfill the dream that you want.
Everybody dreams about winning the lottery and all that kind of stuff.
But have you ever thought about creating your own winning lottery ticket?
That’s exactly what an online business will do for you.
Are you treating it like it can build that kind of income?
All this is just stuff to make you think.
I want you to think about building a life that you don’t have to take a vacation from.
That’s everything I have for today’s episode.
We’ll see you next time on The Money Wheel.
