My Deepest Secret to My Success

If you’re reading this post right now…

I have gotten to know on a personal level.

So, I want to talk to you now on this same personal level. If you want to succeed I think the following information may end up becoming one of the foundations of your success.

Now you may be wondering, C. how can you make such a bold claim as to say that you have the secret to my success? Simple, you see many successful people all say the same things. Just as the Bible says there is nothing new under the sun. I say there is nothing new to becoming successful.

I would even go so far as to say, that the reason why you are STRUGGLING to find success is because you believe there is something new under the sun. It is this belief and focus that causes you to latch on to things “outside of your control” these are things that are not given to you to control.

The things you are given to control are simple:

Your time.
Your health.
Your life.
Your business

I am about to just give it to you straight because there is so much misinformation out there. And it is all designed to give you one single thought:

“You are not successful because of something you do not know.”

If you follow every single sales letter, empty promise, and scam out there it is all centered around the same 4 letter word: Hope. What is this hope? Maybe it is that you will grow a couple inches, have a better life, be a little happier, or just plain like who you see in the
mirror.

Is it really money you seek or maybe something else? Something deeper darker and more insidious.. maybe it’s just plain self respect. I don’t know the answer to that, but I do know one thing, you won’t find your solution in any sales letter, product, and not even in these carefully poised words until you are ready to face your real obstacle.

What is the obstacle that is stopping you from success?

Before, we talk about what is stopping you from success let us talk about what successful people do to become successful. Seems like a logical place to start doesn’t it?

Successful people do what unsuccessful people will not do.

That’s the big secret.

- Successful people will hold on to 100 bucks that could be spent on a new product, when the old one they have hasn’t been opened yet.

- Successful people will write an article a day, to build up backlinks and a little bit of daily traffic.

- Successful people will take a couple weeks to make their own product when they find a nicheful of hungry buyers.

- Successful people will seek out other successful people and leverage a joint partnership.

- Successful people will follow a plan until it is a success.

Now, at this point you are probably thinking, okay so that’s the big secret C.? That’s why you have taken time out of your precious life to write this post. Just so you can state the obvious? Yes and no, it goes a little bit deeper.

What drives successful people?

Successful people do when unsuccessful people do not. This isn’t something you can’t find in a sales letter, a new shiny product, or the newest Google slap information. These things don’t matter. In fact the most successful business owners I know, do the things that most people consider, “basic.”

Funny isn’t it.

The general thought process is: I need to LEARN what those other business owners are doing. While they are just sticking with what they know works. It’s not what you know that determines your success, but what you do.

So, what is it that separates those who do from those who do not?

That’s why this post was written.

I was a young punk. I used to drink and basically spend my life putting one toxic substance into my body after another. I was focused on just eeking out a normal existence, while thinking how big I was in my head. I was pitiful.

Then reality struck. My mother passed away from Cancer. This caused me to really reevaluate my life, I stopped drinking, I stopped doing drugs, and I stopped sleeping with every girl that caught my fancy. I realized that life is just a brief moment in the span of eternity. And I started to pray.

I was given deep, deep revelations as I prayed and read the Bible. And that’s when my WHY started to come together for me. I remembered during these moments that when I was younger, I watched
my mother and father come home, go to work, come home, go to work, watch tv and try to fit a “life” into the brief moments that could be shared, usually on the weekends.

I thought to myself, isn’t there more to life than this? It was with this question looming in my mind that I begin to look around watching all of the different lives around me. I saw so many friends and their families, as well as my own family. Just so depressed. Living out lives of quiet desperation.

Now, I don’t believe that you must have a business to be successful or even happy in life, but I do believe you should be given the chance to create one. At the very base components, business is about providing value on a massive scale. Later, you systemize it so you may create more systems
of value. As you do well with small things, you are given greater.

My WHY was beginning to form. What if I could learn how to create my own businesses, and then later give this information back to those I love. What if I could give to families that had nowhere else to turn. What if I could do SOMETHING with my life that didn’t consist of just, me. What if
I could make an impact with this brief moment of time that I share with you all. What if what if what if.

My WHY was solid. I wanted to learn business so I could, make businesses of value, so I could provide value in other people’s lives and I wanted to teach others how they can do it also. I wanted to help people work from home, so that they can raise their kids. I wanted to see kids grow up in
strong safe environments full of parental guidance and support. I wanted to make a difference.

This WHY drove me when I didn’t want to succeed. It drives me even now. It drives me when I’m up in the morning at 2 AM wanting to sleep, but I end up staying up until 7 AM finishing up “work” that I don’t even need to do. This WHY caused me to work 70 hours a week at my businesses until
I had them systemized to run themselves. This WHY caused me to go to people I love and who trust me to ask them for money, as I showed them my crude business plan. This WHY drove me then and it drives me now.

So, I ask you my friends after sharing my story, and my WHY – what is yours? Let us all join together and create WHY’s of such strength and substance that the choice between watching TV and providing value in other peoples’ lives becomes so automatic, so precise, and so driven.

Then we too can say that we do what other people will not do. While others are sleeping away into the night, we toil. While others watch TV, we toil. While others quit because of an unsuccessful campaign, we press on! While others quit because of an angry spouse, we move forward! Why? Because we have no other choice. We have no other option. We are trapped in our WHYs – together.

We too can claim the prize of knowing that we are a success because we did what others would not do. Not because we are better, more powerful, stronger, or wiser, but because we knew our WHY.

Please share your WHY with me.

C.
