1) ARE YOU MAKING MONEY OR BUILDING A BUSINESS?
There is a difference, you know! In fact, people that don't recognize the difference within a year after starting their business will suffer for this lack of knowledge until they do. Let me give you an example to help you fully understand what I'm talking about. Suppose you went out this afternoon, purchased a computer system and some start-up business software at your local Office Max. You come home -- all excited -- ready to get your new business going. (Everyone has experienced this same type of feeling.) It gives you a great exhilarated feeling to finally take the first step to making your dream become a visual reality.
This excitement continues and mounts bigger day after day. You are so totally absorbed into your new business that you start forgetting about your normal, daily life. Your wife or husband calls you to come to dinner and you say, "In a minute." However, your "minute" turns into three hours. (I guess, at this point, you could say that you're "hooked.")
After several weeks (or months) of this behavior, your family starts feeling very neglected. Or, if you don't have a family, perhaps your neighbor George or cousin Alisha might start feeling you are mad at them -- or whatever.
Your wife, husband, kids, neighbor George or cousin Alisha would never admit they feel "neglected" -- but the feeling is there just the same. After they have reached their tolerance level,
they normally will start talking to you. They might ask, "How's the business doing?" You'll
probably say, "Oh, great! I think I can really make this work."
But the very next question out of their mouths will be, "How much money are you
making?"
That is a question that immediately STOMPS DOWN your entrepreneurial spirit. Since you haven't made any money (and because you have to answer their question), you'll probably
have to swallow your pride and say something like, "I haven't made any money yet but I'm
working on something right now that should do the trick."
Now, whether you are working on anything specific or not, you have placed an invisible
(and perhaps impossible) goal for yourself. You now believe that in order for you to prove to your
family, neighbor or whoever, that you are NOT a failure -- you have to show them CASH IN
HAND! But . . .
Nothing Could Be Further From The Truth!
Making money and building a business are two DIFERENT things -- especially when you
are just starting to build a business.
When two big corporations, for instance, decide to merge and become one, they always
lose money in the first year or so. But in the third year they make more money than both
companies had ever dreamed possible. It was worth the two-year loss! In fact, that's how you
make money -- by investing.
Investing money is not the only way to make your business boom. Hard work and
sacrifice is another way of investing. In other words, if you don't have money to invest, you have
to WORK for it. Plain and simple. If you're looking for a way to have your cake and eat it too,
you'll end up a fool at the short end of the stick! Promise!
I know these are NOT words you want to hear. But whether you accept them or not is
your choice. My job has been done. I have revealed the truth to you and I hope you accept it as
fact.
