Secret of Happiness in Life and Business
By Terry Dean
Let me begin by telling you
a story...
In Indiana, there lives a woman
who works 8 hour days 6 days a week at a local computer company. We will
call her "Barbara" for the sake of this article.
Barbara dreads getting up in
the morning. She dreads getting ready for work. She dreads driving to
work. She dreads clocking in. She absolutely hates her job.
She has a degree in computer
science, but she can barely stand the sight of a computer anymore. Everything
in her miserable life has become a drudgery to her. She can barely stand
herself. The most important thing to her is that wonderful clock that
chimes 5 p.m. when it is time for her to go home.
She rushes to her car...Drives
as fast as the law allows home...and then immediately rushes into her
house as fast as she can to the noise of overexcited door greeters. Both
them and her have waited all day for this moment. Now, she can relax.
She sits down on the couch...collects
up her pets (2 dogs and a cat) and gives each of them the attention she
knows that they crave. She turns on "Animal Planet" on the television
set and sits back breathing a sigh of relief that she lived through another
day.
Every day this same process
occurs. Sometimes she makes a stop by the library and gets a collection
of books on "Dog Care" and on "Dog Training." On her
day off (that wonderful day), her and her dogs go and spend the entire
day at the local park. All of them wait all week for that wonderful event.
Because of the drudgery of
her job and the desire she has to be constantly free from it, she decided
to check into starting her own home business. Her friends sell Avon. As
a matter of fact, one of them even makes enough money to do it full-time.
Barbara envies this woman...She
gets up and works when she wants at her own business which she loves.
She always seems to have a spring in her step and a smile on her face.
Then, one day her friend invites
Barbara to join her. Excitement overflows inside of Barbara...She will
be able to be in control of her own destiny. She can be in business for
herself.
Barbara jumps at the chance...besides
it is only $25 she says to herself..."What do I have to lose?"
She is absolutely on fire with this new possibility...She can work for
herself and make her own life.
She quickly begins to do everything
her sponsor told her to do...She makes up lists of contacts. She begins
contacting them all one by one. She does everything neccessary to get
started as fast as possible.
Barbara begins making a little
money...(It always starts out small in your own home business), but something
is missing. She stills has her job...She has her new home business and
is beginning to make a little income doing it...BUT she has even less
time than before to do the things she loves.
Her day off came and went...She
had meetings to attend in her new business. Her dogs stayed home staring
longingly at their leashes wondering what was wrong. Barbara is making
more money now, but is no more free time than ever before.
Now, after the excitement of
her new business has worn off, that telephone is getting pretty heavy
to use. It is getting pretty tiring to come home from work every day and
have to work this second job...even though it is hers.
One day, her sponsor quits
and she has no one to help her stay motivated anymore. That was the final
straw. She can't do it any more. She goes back to the old routine feeling
guilty that she "failed" in her home business venture.
Later on down the road, this
same process occurs. She joins another home business "opportunity"
only to later give up and quit because she just can't take it anymore.
Dozens of times this happens. Every time she feels more guilty that she
just doesn't have what it takes to make it in her own home business.
Every time this occurs she
ends up exhausted on her couch. The funny thing is that the answer to
her problem has been right under her nose all of the time. It happens
to be staring up at her lovingly right this moment holding it's leash.
Her problem has been that she
works a job she hates. She wants a way out and others are promising her
a solution that just isn't suited to her. They make money doing it because
they love it. She makes a little at it and quits because she can't stand
that JOB either.
For them, it is a way of life
and a passion. For her, it is just another JOB, yet with less starting
salary. Her passion is for her pets, but she spends time trying to work
up passion for other people's desires.
I will let you off the hook
and tell you...Barbara's problem is that she is trying the WRONG home
business for her. She should be starting a business where her passion
is at. Instead, she just trys to imitate others who have completely different
desires.
I wonder if that is your problem?
If you can't wait to get off your job and get out to the golf course,
but you are trying to sell health products, it won't work. If you only
want to garden all of the time, but sell make-up, you are dead in the
water before you ever start.
The Best Way to Produce A Lifestyle
You Enjoy is By Doing What You Love!
Take off the blinders...Take
off the limitations. What do you love doing? What are your hobbies? What
is it that you think about every time you get a spare moment?
That is the BUSINESS for you
to be in...Don't tell me it can't be done. I will just tell you to figure
out how to do it.
Let's go back to Barbara...What
should she be doing? How about being a pet sitter, dog walker, pet day
care, pet groomer, or dog trainer? She could write books on pet training,
animal grooming, etc. That could be an information business. It could
be a service business. Don't put limitations on yourself or others.
Don't tell me it can't be done!
On TV, I just heard about a DOG BAKERY which only sells gourmet dog treats.
They have over a million in sales and 20,000 mail order clients besides
what they have in their little shop. If you love it, you will find a way
once you make up your mind!
For many of you reading this,
you may be in the wrong business. You are making money (Or you aren't
making money it doesn't matter), but you just aren't happy. Well, now
you have it. Somebody was finally willing to tell you the truth of the
matter.
Find your LOVE and you will
find success. Yes, it will be hard starting out. It is in any business
you get started in. If your business is also your passion and your hobby
though, YOU WILL make it through and won't quit when it gets hard, because
you LOVE it.
