Becoming an online entrepreneur is like starting a fire in a fire place. The fire is roaring; it’s exciting, warm, and inviting. It feels good to be near it. You’re possessed by the fire. You love being there.
Is Your Fire Still Burning?
But what happens when the fire starts to dwindle down to just glowing embers? Do you try to keep the fire burning?
Or do you let the embers die out and become cold?
That is the fate of many entrepreneurs. I’ve let that happen to me a few times. I had to restart the fire, and starting the fire is much harder than keeping it going.
If you want to avoid throwing out the cold embers and starting over again, you have to keep the fire going.
Keep Your Goal In Front Of You
Your goal is the fire. You have to keep it in front of you and keep it going all the time.
You have to believe in your goal. Believing in your goal is more than an idea that you possess; it’s an idea that possesses you…the same way a fire can be possessing.
How do you keep your fire, your goal, in front of you?
Put On A Log Every Day
Visualizing your goal is like putting a log on the fire. Mentally picture your goal.
When you visualize your goal think about it like you have already accomplished it. Think about the feelings you will feel, the joy, the happiness, and the sense of accomplishment. Think about the results of your achievement.
Paint your picture in your head.
Paint your picture EVERY DAY…or a few times a day if you need to.
Your painting will help you stay focused, disciplined, and committed.
Your painting will help you persevere through the obstacles and challenges.
Keep The Fire Burning
When you become an online entrepreneur, you must keep you fire burning. Keeping the fire going is much easier than starting a new one. Throw on a log or two every day.
Your fire will help you achieve your goal and give you the sense of satisfaction and contentment, just like a fire in the fireplace. You’ll love being there.
