“What are You Here For?”
What Drives Your Desire for Lifestyle Change?
So many people come to internet marketing with one goal at the forefront of their mind – to make money. This is certainly a fine ambition, but it won’t get you anywhere on its own. I know this is a blunt way to put it, but if you just have a goal of “making money”, you won’t get anywhere. Why? The goal is too vague.
The question becomes, why do you want to make money?
What is it in life that drives that desire?
Do you want to:
- Leave your day job
- Send your kids to college
- Travel the world
- Buy a house
- Move out to the country
- Retire in style
- Buy that fancy car you have always wanted
- Buy a cottage by the lake
- Fill in the blank _______________________
You need to capture one or more of your dreams and make it a long term or even short term goal, something to aim toward. Of course, some of our dreams are wants (which we all have) and some are purpose-driven.
There is more to life than just figuring out what our dreams are. Every person has been put on this earth to fulfill a purpose, to somehow contribute to life on this planet and to somehow give to others. What is your purpose? You might find your dreams and your purpose are aligned with each other.
For instance, you might have a dream of learning all about eco-living and to buy a farm on which you can establish an environment of self-sustainable, earth-friendly living. Then you will open it up as a retreat center so that you can teach others and help them reconnect with themselves and the earth. Your dream of buying a farm is in line with your purpose in life.
Having purpose can change your Lifestyle and contribute to your overall success in Life. Just look at some of the perks of purpose:
- purpose gives meaning to your life.
- purpose simplifies your life.
- purpose focuses your life.
- purpose motivates your life.
- purpose always produces passion.
- purpose prepares you for eternity
- Purpose provides Real Life Success
Nothing energizes like a clear purpose. On the other hand, passion dissipates when you lack a purpose.
First Things First
Your purpose in life can easily be translated into your purpose in business. After all, we do live in a world in which we need to make money to survive and if we can turn our purpose in life into our career, then we are very fortunate indeed because then we will be truly happy with life’s work.
Now I would like you to start thinking about what your life’s purpose is and what you feel your business purpose is. The key is to create a business purpose in line with your life’s purpose. Just close your eyes and imagine what you might want your internet business to be.
Then you need to decide if you are going to market a product or a service. What do you want to promote to the world. The key here is that you want to be sure that whatever you do gives you pleasure. It is not enough in life to just do the minimum you need to do simply to earn money and it is not enough to accept any line of work in order to earn money.
It is from this perspective that I will guide you through the steps of starting your own internet business.
