It is hard to get excited about something if you don't feel that you have a good reason to be doing it. I sometimes have that problem and I keep tuning my why(s) so that they are as clear as crystal to me. Let's face it. Many of us get into the MLM industry part-time while still working a full-time J-O-B. On top of that job which takes most of our time (including travelling), all of us have many other big responsibilities in our lives so our time is valuable. Thus, if you haven't done so, do it now because it will be your motivating factor when times are tough.



In fact time may be your burning desire: time with your family, time on vacation, time fishing, time on the golf course, or finally some time to yourself. Personally, for me it was time on my terms. I don't want to be tied to someone else's schedule all the time. Working for someone is basically about paying the bills, get to just over being broke and sacrificing your freedom for doing that. Mind you I do enjoy working in my profession as a CPA.

Financial Freedom is another popular burning desire and this is my number three reason of why. Many of us have signed up to make extra money to have the things we want or to get free from debt or leave a legacy for our children or to have comfortable retirement with good health. On a side note, if financial freedom is your burning desire, I strongly recommend that you get familiar with the works of Robert Kiyosaki.

Lastly but this is not all there is to it, some people want to develop themselves much further. The best way to becoming a successful entrepreneur without having to lay down a huge capital investment is to take up a home based business. That is my number two reason why. It not only helps me to develop my skills in leadership and marketing but also develop myself to becoming a better networker who has influence on others for a good cause. I say this now with ease but sometimes I have challengers for they put much of a demand on me.

Once you have determined your why, write it down and review it regularly. Put it on the places where you can view it regularly. For example, stick it on your refrigerator, on the bathroom mirror, on the corner of your computer monitor and etc. The key is to look at it often. Let it be a reminder of why you are working so hard and sacrificing so much.

Create some clear goals around it, follow your system, be persistent, believe that nothing can stop your burning desire and go to work.

Now, go find your burning desire and flame on. . .

Below are some simple questions to stimulate your thinking about your big, bold dreams. If you want a rich and abundant life, it all begins with a dream!

1. If time and money is not an issue:

What are three things you would like to do?

Where would you like to go?

What are two things you would like to purchase?

2. What dream have you always thought about in your mind, but never told anyone about it?

3. If there is a 100% wildly successful activity, what would you do?

4. Describe in details about your dream home - the outside, the inside, the feel about it and the surroundings

5. What three things are you really passionate about?

6. If you had $500,000 to donate, who or what organization would you give it to?

7. What are three things you want your dreams to do for your family?

8. What is the one thing that really drives you?

9. What would cause you to get up early, stay up late, and ignore fatigue?

10. List three things that will make you happy and full of joy.

Now that you have some good information about yourself, write them down on paper and write one dream you feel you can accomplish in one year or less.

Then work for it focusing with that end in sight. When you make that dream a reality, set another small dream in front of you and work for it.

When you work toward your small dreams you are also working toward that big, bold dreams too.
