Question:

Hi David,

I seem to hit plateaus in my life. I hit a goal and then have a hard time going to my next goal. Last year I did over $300k but for some reason I get comfortable and want to take it to the next level (7 figures) but am having difficulty turning on the motivation and clarity.

Answer:

Thanks for this question!

Let me answer your question with a question.

Why do you want to hit that 7 figure mark, and EXACTLY how much money do you WANT?

Remember, that the very first stage in creating the life you want is to make a decision.

The first step is to decide EXACTLY what you want (or better).

Your decision should be based on something you're emotionally tied to, something specific you want, and that really pushes you to “feel” your goal.

For example, Joe wants $500,000.00 by September 23rd so that he can buy the house at 567 Random Way, and move closer to his children, so that he can take a more active role in their lives.

Joe is emotionally tied to the money he needs because it will allow him to be closer to his children.

He's made the decision and he's emotionally connected to it. The emotional connection gives Joe a sense of urgency to attain his goal. He knows that the longer he takes to hit his goal, the less time he gets to spend with his children.

This sense of urgency keeps pushing him forward.

What is your sense of urgency to hit the 7 figure mark? What's going to get you out of bed in the morning to do what you need to do to hit that goal?

I have seen many entrepreneurs choose a financial goal out of thin air, and then can't understand why they have never been able to hit that goal.

They don't hit the goal because they are not emotionally connected to it, and there isn't a sense of urgency behind it.

There goals were wishy-washy.

For any entrepreneur reading this, ask yourself the following 3 questions:

1) What exactly do I want? (Make a list and attach a dollar amount to everything on it)

2) Why do I want this? (Be very honest about this)

3) What happens if I don't meet this goal? (This will help you determine how strong your sense of urgency is)

Once you've answered this question, expect to hit the goal, and take action toward this goal EVERYDAY!

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from an individual who wishes to remain anonymous.

Question:

David, I just can't get started. I have so many ideas floating around my head that I don't know where to begin. They sound exciting and then when I start to work on them, it just doesn't feel good enough or the market is so saturated it feels fruitless.

I'm struggling with my purpose, what I should do with my life. It's truly leaving me lost and depressed because I can't figure it out. I've read everything on finding your purpose, spent thousands of dollars trying to figure this out with all the “guru” books/events out there and alas, I'm still at square 1.

Any ideas?

Answer:

Great question, and one I know many entrepreneurs who want to start their own business struggle with.

There's a lot of chaos going on in your mind right now, so let's look to the truth and shine the light on some of those lies.

First, there is no such thing as a mistake. Everything you do, regardless of the results you experience, is bringing you closer to truth. All of those experiences force you to grow, and in the growth, you begin to discover who you are and what you want for your life.

Many entrepreneurs hesitate to get started on an idea because they are afraid of making a mistake. Actually they aren't afraid of the mistake itself, they are afraid of what other people will think about their decision and outcome.

So you must first DECIDE.

Choose ONE of your ideas. It doesn't really matter which one, just choose one that inspires you the most.

Then take ACTION on that decision. Don't worry about the results, don't fret about what people will think, and don't stop.

You see, Spirit won't give you your entire plan. You must take action on the first step before the 2nd step will be shown. If you never take action, you'll never see the next opportunity.

If you should fall flat on your first idea, be grateful for what you've learned from it, and continue to look for the next opportunity. It WILL be there.

You will either win or you will learn, in which case, either outcome is a GIFT.

This week's question from my portal “The Neagle Code: Directions for Life” comes from Judy Katz. You can find her on the web at www.wealthtransformations.com

Question:

How can I break out of the pattern of being the best kept secret when it comes to my business? I fall back with the thought that so many people do what I do. How am I different, etc

Answer:

I’m going to cut right to the chase with this one…

The truth is that there is no such thing as competition.

There is only one YOU. There may be 5,000 different people who teach what you teach, sell what you sell, or provide what you provide, but there is only one Judy Katz! You bring your gift to the world through you, and there isn’t another you and so there cannot be competition!

AND

You’re using this excuse to stay hidden and small.

So the real question to answer would be; what are you afraid of that’s keeping you the best kept secret when it comes to your business?

I know that Spirit wants more for you than you want for yourself. Your purpose on this planet is NOT to stay hidden.

So, my question to you is…how is it serving you to stay small? Now, before you react, take a moment and really think about it.

What would happen if you really stepped into your purpose and became the huge success you know you would be?

Would it mean that your relationship with your friends or family would change?

Would it mean that you’d need to let go of something that you weren’t so sure you could let go of?

Would it mean that others may judge you?

You’re staying small for a reason, and it’s been a choice of yours to do so. The key to getting out of your own way is to become aware of what you are resisting. What are you not willing to do that’s keeping you stuck?

You also have to understand that if you continue to stay small, you are doing a disservice to those people who are looking for your help. Remember, if you have the desire, the way to fulfill it is waiting for you.

It just starts with a decision to get very honest with yourself about why you are choosing to stay hidden and then begin to walk right through those fears.

Once you become aware of your fears, you must bring the truth to it and TAKE ACTION!

Each day when you wake up, write down the 6 most important things that to be done that day to bring you closer to the goal.

Practice this every day.

It will take discipline, but it’s the most important habit you can develop as it will have a DIRECT impact on the success of your business.
