What is your plan?

"You are either planning to succeed or you already have a plan of failure"

This is something that has been hitting me very hard lately with a strong spirit of conviction. I have always been optimistic about the future and what we individuals are capable of. However, those closest to me have often heard me over and over speak about what will be happening, where we are headed, in business and in life. I have lately been reflecting on my life and my business and have come to some sobering thoughts and those thoughts are this...

I have always had trouble with the basics. It's the basics that I have not been consistent with. Yes I have made a six figure income working from home. Yes there are a lot of people who would like to at least be able to do that. However, when asking myself what has been my greatest weakness, what has help me back the most. Honestly, it's the basics! I have alot of advanced training from First Steps to Success. Skills that can never be replaced and that can never be taken away from me.

But when I ask myself what is it that will take me to a 7 figure income or a million dollars a year. It's not, more advanced skill, or at least not yet. It's get the basics down better. I have to focus on strengthening my foundations. Focus on improving time management, focus on consistently talking to new clients, focus on consistently advertising, focus on not getting distracted while I'm working... these are all basic skills. They are also skills that I realized I have learned well enough earn $100,000 a year but now it's time to master them at the millionaire level.

Thanks for reading my blog, thanks for being a part of this journey.
