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.
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."

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.
