"When you live your mission through your business brand, mission statement and vision, then amazing phenomenal things start to happen. Your perfect dream clients are drawn to you. People get really excited about what you are doing. They spread the word to their friends, they sign up for your services, they give you great testimonials. You get more customers, make more revenue, and your business grows with ease. And best of all - your team is more creative and having more fun than ever before because everyone is in absolute alignment with your Why."
I don't know who to credit this beautiful statement to. A friend's wife put it together from some things she had read....so I can at least credit her with recognizing the worth of this.
Everyone can learn from this, everyone can benefit from this simple, clear statement.
Notice how positive it is....there isn't a bit of wishful thinking in it.
What is your mission? That is what comes from this, when you live your mission...so what is your mission? Are you too timid to say it out loud? Too timid to say you want to be the very best at what you do? I read a Facebook post today from a woman who had invoiced a huge company. She was thrilled and better than that, her company was 3 years old! She was living it...she was her mission.
Right now, sit down and write down what your mission is. And after you do put it next to your computer, or your bed...tape it to your mirror. Put it in your phone. Find reasons to make it happen. And when reasons occur for you to give up....counter them! I think so many things were just that close....that close, and then we stop. Right before we get there...right before incredible were going to happen.
We live so beneath our privileges...we listen to the voices who tell us we cannot do it. Don't try, stay safe....
Nothing great has ever occurred staying safe. Walk out on the edge and fly!
I am 100 percent behind you on that! xo
ReplyDeleteI always feel that support from you, no matter what I am doing or writing about. thank you...
DeleteLove this! I have a free code to take an online course to find your "why." I need to get it done!
ReplyDeleteWill you let me know what you discover? Anything that connects us to our "why" is helpful and important.
DeleteGood Advise to follow!
ReplyDeleteI am printing it out and keeping it near my computer. It feels right doesn't it?
DeleteI have lived on the edge and out of my comfort zone for so long it is now familiar territory. And when that edge is gone I'll find another - keeps the excitement in your life and I am NEVER BORED
ReplyDeleteThe trick I have discovered is enjoying the excitement and not running from it as I have been doing. I understand completely what you mean about being outside your comfort zone..., I am trying to be more comfortable there, but I am a reluctant learner on this
DeleteI recently did thus for the Type A Parent Challenge and it has made things so much better. I have a clearer idea of where I want to go...I think!
ReplyDeleteIf you have a clearer idea then you succeeded. We aren't going to know all the answers ever, but often we can ask better questions!!
DeleteI have done this in the past and helped me immensely. I know I have to keep doing this exercise from time to time. Thanks for the reminder, Donna.
ReplyDeleteYour inspiring last line makes me think of a favorite quote: "You may never know what results come of your action, but if you do nothing, there will be no result." Mahatma Ghandi
