So, once upon a time... I started this blog, you know the one...Life at Gray Gables back in 2011.
Sure, I was full of content but I wasn't really clear on - what I wanted to do
- who my audience was
- what my brand could be
- or even what mission I was on
It was, in my own words, my Hobby blog.
It was not a business.
It was something that I dedicated my heart and soul to, put my passion into, but I was putting my words on the computer screen, not really thinking about building anything...BIGGER than that.
I was not navigating my ship.
I was not being the captain.
I was just a passenger, looking into the ocean for a landing spot...to see where I would end up...what kind of opportunities might...or might not happen.
I was extremely passive and taking an extremely passive approach. In the end, I just floated around. I had high hopes of what I wanted my blog(s) to be...but trying to build them in order to build an income seems like it was a mirage.
So, I started educating myself. I developed my professionalism, my business and my lifestyle goals.
The biggest key for me was clarity.
No, clarity is not always tied to implementation. Having a coach or mentor is extremely important. I decided to seek a coach, someone who would push me, hold me accountable, steer my course and let me be the captain to the ship I knew I needed to sail.
What a difference, right!
Not only do I have huge ideas, but I am actually implementing new offerings that are extremely beneficial to all parties involved. It has been a win-win situation for both myself and my clients.
For those of you who ask...
'Is it really possible to make money doing what I love?'
Well, YES!
The fastest way to get there is to level up YOURSELF.
- You need to surround yourself with people who are doing what you want to be doing.
- You need to arrange your role models in your circle and watch, look and listen.
"You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with."
~Jim Rohn
Have you heard the saying "Two heads are better than one" ? Hiring a captain to help navigate your ship could be the key for you to earn a couple dollars here and there or ACTUALLY earning a full-time income from home with a business that you had once only dreamed about.
The difference that having a support system or coach can do for you is amazing. You will see and feel the changes taking place.
