Most people want to live their life on their own terms but they do not know where to start, in this post, I am going to share with you how to create the life you want and the actions you can take to achieve your goals.
How To Create The Life You Want
Do you want to create a life that you will be proud of but somehow you can not do it? There is a reason for that, probably there are some little things you skipped or not doing them. here is how to create the life you want.
Decide what type you want
This is the part where most people get it wrong, they want a great life but if you ask them what they mean, they will not be able to tell you.Â
You need to be honest with yourself and where are you at the moment, not from the I hate my life point of view, I think the best way to do this is to say I know where I am but I would like to do better in some aspects of my life.
For example, if you do not make enough money, you can start from there, or if you are out of shape you need to acknowledge that fact and decide to change.
Write down your goals
So now you know where you are at and where you want to go, it is time to write down those goals, you see most people do not write down their goals and this is the reason that most do not reach their goals.
There is a study that only 2% of people write down their goals, and if you write down your goals you have an 80% chance of reaching them.
When you write down your goals you are telling your mind that these goals are important to you, my recommendation is to write down long terms goals for example where you want to be in 5 years from now, midterms goals like where you would like to be in 18 months, and short terms goals that are 90 days goals.
Your midterm goals should be supporting your long-term goals and your should terms goals you be helping you to reach your midterm goals.
Change the way you think
Now you know what you want and what are your goals, it is time to change the way you think. There is one common thing I found among my friends.
My friends who are obese somehow think that they deserve to be obese, it is because of their genetics or something God has decided for them.
This is the same way of thinking of my broke friends, they think that they do not have money that somehow God is punishing them and they do not deserve to have money.
You’ve got to really change the way you view money and you want to begin to feel like you deserve to be wealthy. While this concept seems simple, many people don’t feel like they deserve money.
As a result, their activities reflect their feelings of lack of worthiness. Instead of coming home from work and hitting the computer, reading an ebook, watching a training video, or taking action on a plan, they will instead come home, sit in front of the television and time will pass.
People who feel like they should be able to make lots of money online will naturally make a lot of money online. This is not some spiritual or motivational talk, although I feel that spirituality is a part of everyone’s journey. However, that is not what I’m talking about when I say people can make lots of money.
The most important thing to remember is that if you feel like you deserve lots of money, you will take the action to make it happen.
Stay focused
When you are new at affiliate marketing it is easy to get distracted and lose focus, I was guilty of this, you know, I was involved in 6 different niches, I was doing 10 different traffic strategies, I was promoting everything that could make me money, and followed everyone.
Guess what, I was making zero money online, in order to make money online by using the power of affiliate marketing you need to focus on one niche, one product, and one traffic method, you need to focus on those until you become an expert on your niche and making enough money then you can start thinking about expanding to another niche or traffic method.
You can apply the same strategy to every facet of your life and you will start to see positive changes happening to your life.
Start your side hustle
Money is not everything but having more of it, usually helps a lot, what I will recommend is to start a side hustle so that you can build from it and make extra money.
There are many profitable sides hustles you can start today but for me, I think affiliate marketing is the best way to start making extra cash.
All you need to do is to find a niche you are interested in, find one product, and just start creating content or promoting that product.
The simple way to find the product you need to start with is to ask yourself this question ‘what is one product that my audience can’t survive without ?’ The answer to this question will give you the ideal product for your audience.
For example, if you’re teaching your audience how to start an affiliate marketing business, probably the answer can be a landing page builder and the product is Clickfunnels.
If you’re teaching your audience, how to build an authority blog that makes them 6 figures, the answer could be reliable web hosting and this could be WpxHosting.
If you’re teaching your audience how to lose weight, the answer could be changing their diet and the product could be a diet program like Jane Craig Diet Program.
You can use the examples above to find your main product, then you could promote what I call auxiliary products, those are products that complement your main product, those could be an autoresponder, a domain name, coaching, etc for those who have an audience who is interested in affiliate marketing.
Find a mentor and then take action
Find someone who has what you want and learn from them, in today’s world it is even easier, all you need to do is to go online and find people who are where what you want and model from what they do.
If they have training or newsletter you can join them and learn more about their way of thinking and how they do things, this is the easiest shortcut you can have to success.
Most people you will meet on your online business journey don’t make any money and then they will pretend to want to teach you how to do it, you need to avoid these people.
You need to find one mentor who had achieved things do you want to achieve and then take action, do everything they tell you to do and you will be successful.
Me, my views on affiliate marketing and life, in general, changed completely when I met my mentor, it is very important that you find a mentor for yourself.
This is the guy who is helping me to rebuild my online business, all you have to do is to join and watch his webinar here and when you finish send me an email via the contact form below, if you have any questions or you need further help.
Make a schedule and then stick to it
This is what my mentor taught me, you need to make a schedule and then stick to it, if you have a 9-5 job, you can do this too, all you need is at least two hours per day each and every day, after arriving home from your day job, you can take time for your family, your significant other and then dedicate two hours for your affiliate marketing business.
If you can’t find time to do this after work hours or maybe you arrive home very tired, you can try to do it early in the morning before going to work, just try to wake up earlier than normal.
Start small and apply what you learn as you go
Avoid being overwhelmed out of the gate. You want to learn, apply it on a small level, and then scale up when you feel you have the basics under control.
While you are doing this, you will start to make money. By staying focused, I mean avoiding multi-tab distractions. You can open a ton of websites in browsers nowadays.
If your plan calls for answering emails between a certain time and a certain time, avoid reading emails before that time. Tell yourself, it will still be sitting there waiting for you.
