What do you need to work on and what are some good habits that you want to build? You’ll want to make a list, write them down, prioritize them, and then develop a plan to achieve the results that you want.

Subjective experience isn’t really a good way to make money decisions. You also need to read research, data, and information related to your business and industry to find out if your subjective experience relates at all. It’s shocking when it doesn’t relate to the norm, but that happens.

You don’t have to be in the majority of your niche to market to the majority of your niche audience. You just have to accept that you need the research to make smart decisions and that due to what you learned growing up, through education, and life, that wasn’t correct. But that’s OK and you can start making better choices now.

• Make a List – Quickly write down the money mindset blocker that you have discovered during this challenge. For example,...

It’s fun looking online for inspiration and to help you write your map to your ideal business. But, it can be discouraging when no matter (it seems) how hard you try, you just don’t measure up to them. You’ve been taught to follow your inspiration, get on their lists, follow them on social media, buy their products to learn how they do things so that you can fill in the gaps and do it better – but sometimes that is just overwhelming.

Particularly when you start figuring out that many people online aren’t really that successful once you get to know them. Then you start wondering how many people you admire who haven’t experienced success at all. They’re taking the “fake it till you make it” idea too far. That’s supposed to be something you do internally, not outwardly. It’s for you, not for others.

Here’s the thing: even if you find out someone isn’t as successful as you thought, there are still successful...

Now that you know that money is not a limited resource, it’s time to discuss a resource that is more limited than most. Time. Each person on earth is given the same 24 hours in a day to accomplish everything they need. You’re no different.

But what if I told you that time isn’t really that limited after all. You likely saw that one coming. If not, this is your wake-up call. Nothing is limited. Everything is really unlimited. Remember, a limitation is just a solution waiting to happen.

When you outsource any task, you immediately gain time in your life to do things you want to do by leveraging someone else’s time by paying them for theirs. You are literally buying someone’s time to use as your own for that period you pay for.

How much their time costs generally depends on the skill they are offering. But, if you outsource something that saves you an hour a week, that’s 4.3 hours a month you can do something else that makes money with. If you pay...

One reason people are often hesitant to outsource is that not only do they think they can do it themselves, they feel that they must do it all themselves for it to be their business. It’s almost like outsourcing is cheating. But there is nothing further from the truth than this. Outsourcing to experts will boost your business exponentially.

Experts are Faster

When you hire an expert to handle a task, you don’t have to train them or teach them anything. They already know what they’re going to do, plan it, and implement it without that much from you. This means that you can go from idea to offer much faster when you pay for the assistance of experts.

When you can get a product to market faster, you can create more products, therefore more offers, faster. If you have outsourced to experts and everyone does their part, this can run very easily – almost automatically.

Experts are Better

Yes, an expert in Google AdSense is naturally going to perform much better at...

You’ve heard the saying that if you want to make money, you have to spend money. It is true. But the real key is not actually that you have to spend money, but that you have to acquire the skills, time, and technology to please your customers and sometimes that means spending money. But in reality, you only need to spend smart to grow big.

It’s easy to quantify this when you have physical inventory. If you sell widgets for 20 dollars profit each, you can easily do the math to determine out how many widgets you need to sell to make the kind of money you need and want to make. This math can also help you determine if you need more products, higher priced products, to build a bigger audience, or something more to build the type of business you want to build based on the monetary goal you just set.

Sometimes when someone has a digital product, they forget that the math is still the same. Profit = Revenue – Expenses. Once you know how to generate sales then you should...

I want you to be able to see that you can make more money. Take this challenge very seriously right now. Set a stretch goal for the income you want to make next month or next year. Then double it.

Write it down and look at it. Your conscious and subconscious will work on ways to make it happen. Want to grow faster? Double that goal again.

Once you have your goals set, start the next step to bring this idea to fruition by setting up the processes and scheduling the action. You can want something all you want, but if you don’t take the action necessary to see it through, you’re only hoping and wishing. To be successful, set goals, be specific, and act. It’s that easy, really.

You Can’t Fail

You must remember that setting a goal is going to help you build your business. You won’t always reach your goals, but you’ll get a lot further and grow a lot faster than with your original goals. You want your goals to be hard to reach. But, ensure that they are...

Holding on to a poverty mentality can ruin your chances of building a successful business long term. A business that not only supports you while you’re working, but due to sound financial investments, is going to support you after you stop working and sell the business. Because smart people have an exit plan too.

• Change Your Environment – When you grow up in a certain class of society, everyone you know tends to have the same ideas. You all use the same slang, wear similar styles of clothing, eat the same foods, and style your hair alike. You may even have the same accents pronouncing or mispronouncing words based on your tradition and history. If you truly want to change how you think, immerse yourself in a new environment.
• Change Your Language – There is a specific language to poverty. “I can’t afford it,” “We don’t have the money for that,” and “That’s for other people, not us” is all about speaking the...

Everyone has some type of fear inside that they need to address. Often someone with a limiting mindset tends to have a fear of failure and even a fear of success that manifests itself as procrastination or even self-sabotage. Let’s talk about some of the ways these fears can cause issues for you and how to overcome them and make progress.

Here are some common symptoms of both the fear of failure and the fear of success manifest.

Fearing the Spotlight.

Not wanting to be in the spotlight. You don’t really want to be that successful because you don’t think you will like being in the spotlight. That’s why up until now you’ve chosen to be behind the scenes.

You are fearful of confrontation and you fear if you get too popular, people will come out of the woodwork and be mean to you and bully you. Taking criticism is hard. But it’s all part of the process of experiencing success.

Imposter Syndrome

Many people walk around feeling as if they are just...

There is something about a business, especially a digital online business, that is truly amazing in that it will start slow and then slowly build and one day (assuming all positive steps were taken), it will gain momentum and take off and people will think you’re an overnight success.

Some people call it the snowball effect. This is a great example of the idea of momentum. Start rolling the snowball in your hands, then as it grows you start rolling it on the ground, it finally gets so heavy that it rolls down the hill alone getting bigger as it goes without your help.

Business can be a lot like that. You start out with every position being filled by you. You do the best you can, slowly building up the business until you can finally hire a bookkeeper, then you bring on a banker, an accountant, and a lawyer. You incorporate your business. You hire a business manager, you find a couple great VAs, and bring on a landing page expert. And it continues. You hire what you need, and...

Aside from feeling as if you’re taking money from other people who may deserve it more, if you have a problem with limiting beliefs you may also think that it’s wrong to earn money when you didn’t work hard for it. That’s another severely limiting mindset that you can break through. The fact is, some of the least taxing work earns the most money. Think about inheritances and interest on investments and savings.

When you have this limiting belief, you will find that you feel guilty if you outsource work to someone and earn off their labor. You feel guilty if you hire a housekeeper to clean up after you and your family. You feel guilty when you pay your affiliates 20,000 dollars but you get to keep 20,000 too for doing “nothing.”

The problem here is that you’ve judged work by its intensity. You think the harder you work, the more you deserve. While that seems logical, it’s not true. You don’t have enough pride in the work that you...
