Your Calling Is Calling

It’s time to aim higher, reach farther and dream bigger. To approach tomorrow with confidence and daring. And Monster’s extensive job database is the ideal place to start. Here you can find not just jobs, but the one job that’s perfect for you. So start searching now. And step into a whole new work life.

I just have to laugh at this! By the way, if you haven’t figured it out yet, this is right off of Monster.com. The part that cracks me up the most, is the end…., “step into a whole new work life.” How can this be enticing to anyone? The only reason people get a job is for the money, for the most part. People don’t get jobs because they love working for someone. Very few employees actually love what they do. Most employees are underpaid, stressed out, paycheck to paycheck, and wishing their life was different.

For those of you who have never lived, I am talking to those who have a job, your “calling is” definitely “calling” and it is not the job you have been in for the last several years. It is not a “whole new work life.” It is not a wage for your time unless you truly want it to be. Do you enjoy making a portion of what you are truly worth? Is it fun commuting every day? Do you like being told what to do, when you can take vacation and how much you can make?

If you answered “YES” to any of those questions, enjoy your job because you will probably be doing it for a very long time. For those of you who answered “No,” what are you waiting for? “Step into a whole new life!” Let’s find out what you are truly worth!

This is a video of me and my daughter hard at work. I absolutely love what I do! So if you have the idea in your head that Home Based Businesses don’t work, think again! Honestly, I can’t speak for all the other ones out there, but this Home Based Business definitely works and it pays big.

This may seem like an odd question, but have you ever figured out how much it is really costing you to work for someone else? Think about it…There’s the time you commute, gas, stress, the wear and tear on your vehicle, lunches out, work clothes, business suites, child care, traffic tolls, maybe even traffic tickets…You get the picture! It is expensive to have a job in more ways than just mentioned.

Other than just the dollars…what else is it costing you? Your health? Your sanity? Your family? Your Time? There is some more food for thought! How many times have you worked that highly stressful 12 hour day? After a week of that, have you gotten much sleep? Are you stress free? Have you spent any time with your family. Have you done anything productive for yourself? No! Most likely you had very little sleep due to the stress, you got angry at your kids and your wife when you got home for no reason and barely had time to say “hi” to them before they went to sleep. For what? For your boss? You must really love him to sacrifice all that you are!

Do you know the real definition of J.O.B? J.O.B. = Just Over Broke! According to the latest statistics, the average US family income is $31,000. I used to live off of 36k and could barely afford to go to the movies and buy popcorn at the same time. I was renting, I had one car, and was not living a life of luxury. That is scraping by!

I am not in any way down playing a job or employees. We need them as employers and entrepreneurs. There is a very small percentage of individuals that really get to live their dreams. I believe it is less than 3%! How pathetic is that? What category are you in….the 97% or the 3%? How much is your job costing you? It’s really costing you your life!

What will your life be like if you continue making decisions that same way you are currently making them? What will it be like in 2 years, 10 years, or even 30 years? Will you still be in that secure job of yours, headed towards that 20 or 30 year retirement? Or, will you be laid off? Will you have the financial security that you and your loved ones deserve? Will you be proud of what the last 10, 20 or 30 years have held for you or would you wish to have had more fun, taken more chances, made bigger, wiser decisions?

Never under estimate that power of a simple choice. The choice you make now to read this information is a choice that may or may not effect your life, depending directly to whether or not you decide to act upon this information. If I had not have acted on the information that we received about this unique business opportunity, I would still be doing what I hated. I would be making pennies, working for someone else, and wishing for more. The sad thing is that most people are in that exact same situation, but may not realize that a simple choice and the desire to change, is really all it takes. We decided to change our income and thus our life had increased in joy, abundance, income, friends, knowledge, and every other good thing that I can possibly think of.

So what are you sacrificing for the sake of comfort? Feels good to come home every day from that job or business and see the family for an hour or two just to do it all over again. What do you get from that? Benefits? Money? I’ll tell you what I got from my job. I got no money, no real time for my family, a life of struggle, the cow mentality (always following the herd), a two bedroom apartment, a broken down Dodge Dart, 36k a year and having to wait for a whole year to get a lousy $1 raise, one hour a day with my family…..oh, but I got benefits! I got Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance baby and a 401k! Wow! That makes it all worth it.

My advice, and take this from someone who has been there, the best thing you can do for your families future is to stop going to work. Stop going to that JOB! Make a simple choice to take control of your life and live to the fullest! Here I am sitting in Rome Italy while writing this article. I am living my life! I have no job to get back to and could just stay here and still work this business! Where could you be right now, if you were not at work, and had a choice?

The answer to that is simple……you’d be wherever you want to be. And the funny thing is…there is always a choice!

Have you ever heard of the metaphor of the cows and Rhinos? Or maybe a more familiar term would be an employee or an entrepreneur? Whatever it might be, the comparison between the two is what i would like you to take a look at. What do cows do? They follow the leader, they stay within the fence, they graze all day and are content with that life. Rhinos on the other hand are the opposite, they are leaders, they stray away from the heard, they are independent, they are free and wild animals.

Employees are the same as cows in most circumstances. They are told what to do, kept within boundaries, follow the leader, and most of the time,feel they are stuck and may be content with that kind of a life. Entrepreneurs on the other hand, complete opposite. Anyway, you get the point. Cows may want to be Rhinos, but they can’t, because they are cows. People, on the other hand, are not creatures of habit. You can do whatever you want. That is what makes us special and unique.

Take a look at this picture. I would like to use this as an example of my point. Look at this Ponderosa Pine in the midst of all the Juniper trees. Do you see how the Pine is trying to fit in. It knows it should be growing huge and tall but wants to look like the rest of the trees it is surrounded with. So instead it is getting wider instead of taller like it should.

Now, look at the potential of the Ponderosa Pine. It is one of the largest trees in the forest. I have seen them grow to widths of 6-8 feet growing over 80 feet tall, yet, this one tree living amongst the Junipers is barely 30 ft tall. It goes to prove, if you hang around the Junipers, you will become a Juniper. If you hang around the Ponderosa Pines, you will reach your full potential. You become who you hang around with. If you desire to be wealthy and successful, hang around those that are wealthy and successful. It isn’t rocket science folks. Get out of the limiting environment you may be in, get into a business opportunity and be mentored by those who are what you want to become. Start living your life the way you want to live it. Realize what your full potential is and take action.
