Frustrations with Money
For the past week, a friend, someone whom I respect and is with me in Lifevantage, too, today again, asked me about Empower Network and how it is working for me. I have been telling him all week that it is going well. I am earning money, which is great. I am learning, which is fantastic and it is done while I am in my underwear in bed. Last night I went to bed, woke up and had earned money; how great is that?
When I asked him when he planned on coming on, which he has said multiple times he was, he told me he was busy with the family, the kids, work, 2 weddings…etc, you get the idea. For over 8 months, including Lifevantage, I have listened and supported his “excuses” for not working the business. I get it. Life happens. But for a man, with a family, and a dream of millions, today I decided it was brutal honest time. For me, I was frustrated for him with money, too.. I was frustrated at the endless excuses and bullshit. I used to be the guy who made all of those bullshit excuses, and when I quit,
It was hard to send that to him, but I knew it had to be done; not only as his mentor and income partner, but as his friend.MY LIFE CHANGED EXPONETIALLY FOR THE BETTER!
“Buddy” I shared, “Today I am going to tell you how it is. You want a life for your family that requires a lot of money, yes? I respect you and know that you do what to create that life for your family. However, you cannot make excuses and expect to make money at the same time, bro.”
His response was, “I understand man. I know you’re always going to tell me how it is, and I thank you for that.”
More frustrations with money....deep sigh
It confuses me beyond my limits to hear people talk about their struggles financially and blame the world, then make excuses for it. Maybe the excuses are legit. Maybe you have been dealt a shit hand. But...
WHO CARES? 85% of us have , too...
ENOUGH ALREADY.
GET OVER IT AND BEYOND IT OR IT WILL KILL YOUR SOUL!
They plethora of bullshit excuses is horrifying and it is no wonder 97% of you are broke.
Excuses -#10-#1
10. I don’t know how 9. I am not sure I know how 8. Did you ask me to do that? 7. My dog at my homework 6. I am afraid 5. That’s one of them pyramid schemes (one of my all time favorites) 4. I’ve got to talk to my spouse 3. I am not good at (insert any opportunity here) 2. That is impossible 1. I can’t afford too
Look, these are all bunk excuses to not take a chance at a better life! Take a chance on LIFE!
At what point will you stand up and say, “Today I will fight BACK! I will RISE ABOVE! I will not sit here and DIE a:
SLOW FINANCIAL DEATH!
Thank you for listening to me rant…
Making a difference around the world,

p.s. had Austin today, all day. When he was fighting cancer, think he made any excuses?
