Just about three years ago the job I had wasn’t all that great, I made a less than desirable salary, and I never got to spend time with my kids and my husband. Now, I’m coming up on 2.5 million dollars in revenue and I get to spend more time with my family than ever. How has my income grown so much? Let me share with you the three simple strategies I used to boost my income!
The first, and arguably most important strategy, is to adopt an abundant mindset! I know you’ve heard me say this a million times, but that means it must be true. Become somebody who is abundant. Become somebody who expects to make more money. Be okay with having conversations around money. Familiarize yourself with being wealthy. This was not a natural feeling or mindset that I grew up with, so I self-sabotaged for quite some time before I learned how to adopt an abundant mindset. Here’s a few things you can do to adopt an abundant mindset: make a vision board, participate in guided visualizations, test drive the car you’ve always dreamed of having or visit the open houses in the neighborhood you’ve always wanted to live in. By doing all of these things, you’re giving yourself a reminder of what you’re trying to achieve. If I didn’t do this when I was building my business, how would my mind ever get used to the fact that it could be my reality?
Secondly, hang around people who are successful, wealthy, and live the life that you aspire to. I used to be the girl that went and partied all the time and never formed substantial relationships. Now, I pay attention to who my family and I are hanging out with and we intentionally hang around other couples raising their kids the way we want to parent. Ask yourself: does your upline have the kind of business/life that you want? Do you personally hang around people who are encouraging you and boosting you up? You need to make sure to set boundaries on those who are downplaying your success or don’t believe in you.
Lastly, train yourself to bounce back quickly. When you think about not having everything you want right now, don’t let the idea of skill and ability scare you away because everyone has the ability to create a business like I have. The thing that’s holding you back is that you are not consistent; and you’re not consistent because you don’t bounce back quickly. You can’t make the money that you want if you are always stopping and going. I want you to pay close attention to when people are saying that you can’t do things or you’re not smart enough to and see how long you sat in that feeling until you bounced back. Start measuring the time it takes to bounce back. I challenge you to shorten the bounce back rate each time. Can you imagine being able to bounce back within 10 minutes? When you overcome something, it’s truly going to change your life and you’re going to get back in control and realize you can manage your emotions.
Now I want you to take all of these strategies into consideration the next time you sit at your desk to start another project. Have your vision board clearly displayed for you and get to goal crushing!
