WHY CHOOSING THE HARD PATH TO SUCCESS WAS THE BEST THING I EVER DID

Yes, I chose to do things the hard way because as much as I love fairy tales, I know that there are no magic wands to make something appear or disappear at a mere stroke miraculously.

WHY CHOOSING THE HARD PATH TO SUCCESS WAS THE BEST THING I EVER DID

In This Article:

I DO NOT CHOOSE EASY PATHS, but I would not change a thing.

Juliette, why do you tell us that with a personal profile one can build a business, when there are Facebook pages that are created for that purpose, plus I do not want to annoy my friends and family.

Juliette, why do you decide you need to be super active on Facebook and spend time talking to people individually – can you not just automate everything, it is 2019?

Juliette, I want to have a life of freedom, but I do not want to give up my free time to be building my business- it seems exhausting.

Juliette, can I not just use ads?

You can do whatever you want, frankly, but then find someone else to learn from, stop reading, close this page, because you will not like what I am telling you.

THERE ARE NO EASY WAYS TO BUILD A BUSINESS

YOU HAVE TO INVEST TIME INITIALLY IF YOU WANT TO CREATE THE LIFE OF FREEDOM AS A RESULT

NOTHING HAPPENS TO YOU, BUT YOU CAN CREATE THE LIFE YOU WANT – WHEN YOU COMMIT & PUT IN SOME HARD WORK

Yes, I chose to do things the hard way because as much as I love fairy tales, I know that there are no magic wands to make something appear or disappear at a mere stroke miraculously.

And no, I do not think that life is hard, or making money is hard, but I know that it was committing and working HARD that helped me understand and figure out what worked, and what didn't in my business and in the strategies I teach. And that it took time, a lot of patience and trusting the journey that brought success and freedom into my life.

Are you ready to do what it takes to make your dreams happen? Are you prepared to trade your life for those dreams?

If your answer is no – STOP IT NOW.

You are wasting your time.

Get a job and forget about being an entrepreneur. It will feel better, I promise.

If your answer is yes – PERSEVERE.

Keep going; even if it feels like there is no clarity, you don't know the direction you are going to, even if things do not always work out the way you expect (mostly they won't) – but you KNOW deep down, there is something out there that is calling you. And you do everything you need to do, get everything you need to have, learn everything you need to learn to get there.

And one day you realise -you found the right track!

You'll feel confident and clear!

You'll know EXACTLY what your mission is and who you can serve.

And then you'll know that it is all starting to pay off: the hard work, the long hours, choosing to do things the hard way. And you start realising that the unique systems you created have been allowing you to feel free and in the flow.

This is what happened to me, and I do not regret a thing, not a minute spent searching and learning, communicating, connecting and showing up.

Not a single second. I was prepared to trade my life for my dreams and it is paying off. Now I WANT to do even more!

What are you prepared to do to make your dreams come true?
