Visualize and Believe

 
              
 
 
 Visualize and Believe
 
 
Consider this: 4 in 10 Americans don't have even one month's salary savings in the bank. With the median income per person around $31,000 annually, how many of us have the suggested minimum 6 - 8 months salary set aside for emergencies?  Not many, I suspect. With a nod to rhymin' Simon, we're "slip sliding away." So how do we free ourselves from the shackles of mediocrity?
 
Take heart. There is a pathway to financial freedom, and it consists of a strong plan, immediate, mid-term and long-range goals, and a defined way to attain them. But first things first. Before you engage in any business, you must envision the future. And surprise, it's not always about success.
 
Listening to inspirational entrepreneur, Al Turnquist, founder of Jaguar Marketing/Predator Marketing speak of reverse vision he asked, "What will happen if you don't reach your goals? Would you face foreclosure? Would college become a fading dream for your children? Imagine how you would handle an extreme emergency and all the bills that accompany an unexpected tragedy. Could you even afford to bury a loved one?"
 
Forget the dream car, upscale home, and exotic vacations. In the current economy, where the division between the haves and the have-nots is growing, will you be on the wrong side of that divide, barely able to purchase necessities?   Forget retirement. Too chilling to contemplate. Can you say, "big box greeter?"
 
To accomplish your dream you have to see it, envision it as reality, and believe it is achievable. No one can do that for you!  There is always money out there to be made in a legitimate home business. It you truly believe you can make it - and why not - you will!
With only a limited education, others are earning $100,000 per year. With the right tools, such as the Veretekk system, so can you!
 
Put your dreams, plans and goals on paper. Keep that paper private. No one can dash your hopes quicker than friends and relatives because their opinions are the ones you value most, and often they are the most negative. You cannot allow discouragement and negativity into your sphere of visualization.
 
So what if you failed in the past. Everyone has. A real champion can hit the floor then arise and return to battle without complaining. Champions learn from their mistakes, correct them, and move forward fighting for their goal. Perseverance is their trademark.
 
Frequently visualize your personal achievements, followed by pre-planned actions. Seeing is believing.   After that, your goal will be to share knowledge and help others follow your road to success. Won't that be the ultimate blessing?
 
Poet Mary Oliver wrote,
 
Listen, are you breathing just a little,
calling it a life?
How long will you continue to listen to those dark shouters,
caution and prudence?
 
Thank you.
