Why Not You?

For years I would find myself at the casino at the beginning of the night thinking maybe, just maybe I would win big. After all, the last 20 times I went to a casino, I didn't win....something had to give and I was for sure going to win this time. Weird....I never won big. That really sucks! I wonder how much money I've thrown into machines at casinos and got nothing in return? Actually, I would rather never know that number to refrain from being physically sick.

I'm typically a very optimistic person. I am more of a glass half full instead of half empty kind of person and I always look on the bright side. Life is far too short to be anything but optimistic and positive. When I joined It Works in January 2014, I went into it with a positive outlook. I really just wanted to make a little money back on what I was already spending as customer. Maybe make enough to cover the cost of daycare, but that was it. And besides, if I tried it and failed- who cares?! I had just gotten a nice promotion at work a few months earlier so I was happy with that and while I knew the extra money would be helpful and make me feel more at ease, it wasn't that necessary. I remember the day that Beth text me and said, "hey, you have three months to get diamond and you earn $10,000!" You would think that amount of money would excite me a little...but it didn't because like the casino, I didn't think I would get it anyways. That is where I was wrong.

Earning that $10,000 wasn't a gamble. It wasn't by luck. It wasn't because I was at the right place at the right time. Earning that $10,000 was totally and completely because I made it happen. Not only did I make that happen, but I made it happen again two months later by promoting to double diamond and earning another $15,000.

So here is my question to you....why not you?  Why couldn't you be the next person to earn that same bonus as I did? I assure you that I am a real person. I have a job. I have a family. I have a house and a dog. I do not have a degree in multi-level marketing, sales, or entrepreneurship. I am not an expert and I would never claim to be. But that's the thing....you don't have to be an expert. All you need is a goal, a vision, and a path on how you want to get there and it's yours.

So who is next? Who is going to step out of their comfort zone and have their picture here by mine? Don't let your fears hold you back.  After all, the only thing stopping you, is you.

Follow your dreams,
