Summary
When you started your social selling business, you likely had a dream of leaving your “day job.” You probably dreamed about it so much that you ended up romanticising what your life would look like without your 9 to 5.
You may think this dream/goal is motivating you into growing a successful network marketing business, but today’s episode will challenge you on this idea.
Shifting from bitterness and resentment to gratitude and joy for your current work situation will change everything about how you’re showing up in your social selling business. And it will actually make your plan B, your reality sooner rather than later.
Don’t miss these highlights:
- Why you don’t have ‘more time’ when you quit your 9 to 5 and how you’re more efficient when you’re doing both jobs
- The intentional thoughts you need to think in order to find joy in your current job
- How much money you actually need to be making before you quit your 9 to 5
- Why setting a deadline to leave your 9 to 5 has a negative impact on your social selling business
- How to stop the feelings of bitterness and resentment from creeping into your 9 to 5
- The multiple phases of a social selling business and how that informs when you should leave your 9 to 5
- The key things that will ruin your experience while you stay with your 9 to 5 and work on building your ‘side hustle’
Having the ultimate goal of working for yourself by building your social selling business is great! But treating that goal as an escape hatch out of misery will have a negative impact on your new business.
