What Is Your Impossibly Big DREAM?

It’s a fine day in the neighborhood, would you like to be my neighbor?

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker with another amazing adventure. It’s all about dreaming.

What is YOUR God given BIG DREAM? We all have a vision inside of us, that is crying to come out. Are you ready to let it out?

Mention: https://www.briantracy.com/blog/personal-success/26-motivational-quotes-for-success/

If you want to change your life, you need to envision what is next. The reason many people don’t follow their New Years’ resolutions or meet their isolated goals is because they don’t have the bigger, purposeful, inspiring picture in mind. Let the vision flow, resonate in your spirit, soul, and body.

Right here, STOP. Get a pen and some paper. Take 5 minutes and write down your dream. Got it? Ok, now lets break it down so you can see how to make it a reality.

What do you want to accomplish? Where do you see yourself in one, two, ten years? What makes you happy?

These questions will drive you forward to accomplish your dream.

Vision: The Core of Your Life Plan

To learn how to plan your life, be precise as much as possible when creating your vision.

Create a Step-by-Step Plan. Divide your life plan into parts. Plan for an hour, a day, a week, a month, a year.

1st step: Slowly get into a routine. Picture your perfect day. Now write down every step. When you wake up, make your bed, take a shower, fix your lunch. I know this sounds strange, but I will explain it all.

Once you complete your list, break it down to hourly events that you can manage. Look to weekly events, monthly events, and yearly events.

This is easy, buy a planner notebook. Keep your planner with you at all times. Look at it often and stay focused.

Take one step at a time. Yet, do not let routine absorb you. Every step you take has to bring you closer to your dream.

Work with Deadlines. Even if you think you’re organized enough, set them. They help you stay precise and focused. Reward yourself when you meet your deadlines. It doesn’t have to be big. Make it personal and fun for one.

HAVE RULES: Before you make a decision that could influence how you plan your life, take a break and think it through for at least 20 seconds.

What are the consequences of this decision? Will it help you to become closer to your dream? How will it affect your lifestyle? Each of these should be thought out carefully. You need the proper time to properly make the correct decision.

Get Out of The Rut. So how do you know when you’re in a rut?

Life has its ups and downs for all of us. We look around and realize that we’ve found ourselves stuck in the RUT. When you don’t know you are in a rut, it’s very difficult to get out. Once you see the rut, prepare the way to move out of the rut.

BIGGEST RED FLAG: You spend most of it daydreaming of being somewhere else. If the only thing you have any anticipation for is getting into bed at the end of every day, then you’re definitely in a rut and need to start finding enjoyment in the little things in life, appreciating all of the things that come in between waking up and going back to bed again.

Accessibility: Keep your written day or week plan at your fingertips (it could be the app on your smartphone).

When you have some free time, spend it on accomplishing some points from your list.

Boundaries: If you want your plan to be fulfilled, learn to say “no.” Stop. Take a deep breath, and make a decision that won’t ruin your plans. Learn to prioritize and stand your grounds.

Tracking: To get the motivation to move further, track your progress. Noting the results of your everyday work, you’ll realize that even 20 minutes a day make a difference, and it’s not that hard.

Now it’s your turn to PLAN out your life. Go ahead and do it with GUSTO. Remember to have fun all along the way. It’s your life, make it BOLD and BEAUTIFUL.

Are Your Days Blurring Together?

Michael The Traveling Trucker, Here. My driving keeps me real busy. Some days blur into other days and I forget where I am and what I’m doing. Have you had similar days?

Have you looked in the mirror lately? Has the thought, who Am I come to mind?

It takes concentration, planning and action to stay focused.

DAILY HABITS TO FOLLOW.

Mention: https://www.canstockphoto.com/images-photos/daily-habits.html

Setting quarterly goals that align with a larger 3-year vision and 1-year goals. Daily habits ensure that you are on the right track. Advertising, follow up with leads and prospects, getting out your daily mailers. Money-making activities.

Measure everything. It’s critical to track everything. If you don’t how will you know what works and what doesn’t. Making sure you get what you paid for( clicks for the solo ad). Measuring what viral mailers bring in the best results.

You will be in constant action, refining the marketing plan, improving the sales process, training and developing your style of operation.

As a result, your business will likely be in a constant state of growth, therefore, forcing your hand to continually add more great people to your team. The more the merrier, RIGHT?

Why stay away from coasting? Coasting for too long gives you a false sense of achievement. Coasting can often feel like driving, but in reality, you are stuck on the Hamster Wheel of your business and not moving forward towards any clear goals.

Coasting in general terms is getting the day to day work done with no focus or strategy for growth with an action plan for making it happen. Keep your business from going stagnant. Your business will likely die if you stop driving over a sustained period of time.

Here are a few strategies for your consideration.

Build a sales funnel. Sales funnels can help to automate your business. It helps you to scale and grow quickly and easily.

Create a customer loyalty program. Building a customer loyalty program will help you retain customers. It might also help you attract new ones as well. Build an attractive loyalty program that brings value to your customers.

Identify new opportunities. There are likely dozens of new opportunities you could pursue immediately with the proper amount of searching.

Build an email list. This is your main focus. Building a list of customers is key to any business surviving.

Form strategic partnerships.

Strategic partnerships with the right companies can truly make a world of difference. Make sure the business you are looking at compliments yours.

Build passive income streams. Passive income will afford you the opportunity to make mistakes and not have to lose your shirt. It’ll keep you in business and provide a basis to grow and market and scale quickly by giving you ample resources.

Create a webinar. Webinars are a great way to promote any product or service. It can also help you grow any business relatively fast. Webinars provide an automated selling tool for literally taking any product or service to market and reaching a wide audience quickly. The webinar medium is great for captivating audiences to clinch sale after sale, automatically.

I hope you have learned a few valuable things here today. I have been taught from the start to use these tools to build my business.

We have talked about free membership and how far you can get with it. Free tools do the same thing. They can only take you so far. You must invest in the right tools( spend money) for the best results.

Do you have the necessary know-how and skills to stand out from the crowd and take your business to the next level? Most marketers can do a blog post and social media. Isn’t that enough?

NO: If you want a competitive edge, you must improve your skill mindset. Knowledge is POWER. Having the right tools in your arsenal, ready to use to accomplish the task at hand.

What are these tools? Copywriting: Knowing how to write properly to convey the right message.

Have you heard of Vector Art? Vector artwork is art that’s made up of vector graphics. These graphics are points, lines, curves and shapes that are based on mathematical formulas.

When you scale a vector image file, it isn’t low resolution and there’s no loss of quality, so it can be sized to however large or small you need it to be.

It’s an excellent tool for putting company logos on business cards, creating poster designs, and when photo-shopping in Adobe Photoshop. Any art made with vector illustration software like Adobe Illustrator is considered vector art.

How do you pick the right product or service to market? What are your prospects or leads pain points? What do they need to solve a problem?

Your product or service offers the solution to fix the problem. It offers value, but it’s also one that has a great value proposition. It speaks to an emotional hook of some sort.

Turning Ideas Into Cash

Greetings and salutations Wonderful READER, Michael The Traveling Trucker with a brain storming idea.

Ideas are the seeds which germinate in action, sprouting verdantly into our fondest dreams. Without an idea, there can be no action, no working toward goals.

SO PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO ANY IDEA WHICH MIGHT DEVELOP INTO THAT VEHICLE FOR FINANCIAL FREEDOM.

Can you brain storm with others for a joint venture?

Investing into yourself is the most important investment of your life. Moving with this mindset will push you toward your goals and dreams.

Don’t mistake the difficulty you may have in getting started at a given task as an indicator that you don’t like what you are doing. Even the most successful people have difficulty getting started sometimes.

An idea for a new business may come to you before know how much money you have available. In fact, a good idea will attract money.

Now down to the nitty gritty. What are you good at? Lets begin by getting inside that head of yours.

Can you design a room with flair?

You love arts and crafts. Look at these people.

Crafter Mandi Gubler took a plain dresser she found at a yard sale and transformed it with PVC pipe into a modern piece. Bought for: $50 Sold for: $2,500.

Katie Rogers took her passion for watercolors and turned it into cash. She designed tote bags for designer handbag-maker Coach. She made $5,000.

Domesek saw Gwenyth Paltrow’s beautiful Prada dress she wore to the Met Gala and decided to craft a celebrity look-alike skirt. Domesek says crafting isn’t a trend, it’s a way of life for her.

You have an idea about designer clothing. You put your thoughts down on paper. You make sketches. You buy the material and put your design to action. The SMILEY FACE WAS BORN, Life Happens was born, Life is a BEACH was born.

Mention: https://www.pexels.com/search/ideas/

You say I love woodworking, sewing, drawing, writing, teaching, singing, painting, growing things and the list is endless. What skills do you have? We all are good at one thing. WHAT IS YOURS? What skill can you develope that will turn your skill into cash flow.

The biggest mistake people make is NOT giving yourself enough time to make your dream a reality. You quit too early when it gets hard, instead of stepping back, taking a deep breath, and then say, I CAN DO THIS.

Do you play an instrument well enough to teach others? Can you teach others on writing? Teaching others about cooking? The UNIVERSE is calling you to expand your horizon.

Here is your chance to join and a group of ENTREPRENEURS, that have the vision, passion, and drive for success. Click here, to find out more.

TAKE YOUR TIME. Think it out. Write it down. Plan your day. Now BEGIN. Don’t put it off any longer, YOU GOT THIS.

3 WAYS TO INFLUENCE PEOPLE

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker. I influence people through what type of semi I drive. I love the Freightliner Cascadia. It’s roomy, 2 bunks.

Mention: https://www.dreamstime.com/photos-images/freightliner.html

I can raise the bottom bunk up, lock it in place, and have a foldable table and chairs, where I can sit and eat, draw, get out my laptop and go to work.

It is my home away from home with a refrigerator, microwave, plug in strips. I have a TV mount and cable access.

I show people on the road some of the features, like setting up the truck to start by itself when I need to cool off or warm-up. It’s a weather thing, Don’t cha know.

The cab gets too hot or too cold and the truck sensors kick in starting the truck to cool it down or warm it up. Once the temp is reached the truck shuts off.

In the Affiliating Marketing niche, social media has a dominance that people use to get their brand out there. You may have a free Ebook, Set up a mini-course on solo ads, Course on How to be a Great Blogger.

You MUST provide REAL VALUE. Content writing is an important component of your overall content marketing strategy. Great content engages your audience and can address their pain points, adding value to their business or their lives.

After users find your content, do they consider it to be readable?

While this question applies to written content, text is the primary way people consume information, so it’s an important category. Today, the younger crowd loves videos. Make them and share share share

TIP#1: Communicate with your audience. Social media networks are primarily a communication tool.

When you engage in a conversation with your audience, then they will feel as though they know you.

TIP#2: Become a THOUGHT LEADER. As a Thought leader, you bring a unique insight to a topic. Based on your passion experience, and knowledge, your topic tells a story where people relate.

To make this happen: Please pick a topic you genuinely know and are interested in.

TIP#3: Become A World Changer. Integrating your social media with your site itself. YOUR BRAND and MESSAGE HAS TO BE different from the competition.

Don’t make it boring like so many other sites. People love the unique, bold, passionate, funny, heart warming, thought provoking content.

I love what I do. I sell the dream. People are smart and know when you are insincere. Let’s take a road trip. Let’s do something you have never done before.

Are You Creating The Right Atmosphere?

Hello Everyone, Michael The Traveling Trucker. Today’s lesson is, Creating the right atmosphere when talking to your PROSPECTS AND LEADS.

Mention: https://www.123rf.com/stock-photo/people_talking_on_the_phone.html?sti=o8bl98jwllpi6u4h0v|

Most of us look like this in the beginning

I know from experience that getting on the phone can be scary, uncomfortable and make you draw a blank when talking to leads and prospects about your business.

Let me say from the get go, “PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT”. Start where you are and grow each day. Go over and over the scripts provided or make up your own following the guidelines from our leaders.

I recommend a one on one with ROB GEHRING. He is our closer at GLN. Book a meeting and discuss the topic. Rob is a valuable resource that most people don’t utilize or know is available for our use.

Other great resources are Janet Legere and Jared Meyers. Janet does our weekly webinar on Wednesday at 12:00 noon EST for members only.

Jared is the owner of GLN. Who better to ask about talking to people.

In the end, people can’t see you so RELAX. You should look like this,

Check out the script directly from my back office: This is just a SAMPLE.

-Hi is this (Your Prospects Name Here)?
-When they say yes it is, you respond with this –This is (Your Name Here) and you recently filled out a form about making money from home. Do you have a few moments to talk?
-Pause and continue based on their response
-I’m following up to see if you have any questions.
-Did you watch the on demand webinar after you filled out the form?
-If they say no, respond with this — Are you looking for a way to make money from home?
-If they say yes, ask them this — Do you have a few moments right now to watch the on demand webinar?
-If they say yes, respond with this — I will send you the link via email, what is a good email address?
-When they give you their email, respond with this – Ok, one moment here it comes.
-Pause to send the email which you have ready to send before you call!
-Once you send them the email, verify that they received it
-Once they say they have received it, tell them you can wait while they watch the video or you can call them back. Make sure you set a time to call them back and have them commit to that time.

In reality, a script is just a guide for useful things to ask and say. You will be lead by the person on the other end of the phone.

Have a smile on your face. Believe it or not people can hear your smile by your voice. SMILE SMILE SMILE.

Don’t let people control the conversation by getting off topic. STAY FOCUSED.

Keep your conversation on track, ask questions to determine if this is a “Hot or Not” prospect. keep everything simple, slow, and let it flow naturally. It’s ok to be nervous. The people on the other end are more nervous than you.

More questions you can ask your leads:
-Do you have any experience with online programs like this one?
-Do you have a budget for an online business? A monthly advertising budget?

The answer to these two questions will tell you volumes about your lead and whether or not you want to continue asking questions.

IS CHANGE COMING?

I had a great interview with my buddy from Canada, Sumeet Mall. I have been guiding him for about a year. First through the sharing of my knowledge of the gospel.

We talk about family. Sumeet is 20 years younger than myself, with 3 girls from 11 to 15. I have grown girls so sharing my experience, strength and hope has been a blessing.

I introduced him to this wonderful business and he excepted at the Elite level. He has shared what he is doing as far as training, advertising, and setting up his funnel. He is a superstar in the making. It’s the SYSTEM at WORK.

I ask that you begin sharing what you know because you care. It is said, “People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care”.

Sumeet is a dear brother and the enjoyment I get from talking to him is precious.

ARE YOU A QUITTER?

Hello Everyone, Michael “I’m Not Quitting” The Traveling Trucker. I was doing some classroom study through videos and came across this GEM.

ARE YOU A QUITTER? This was a slap in my face to wake me from my dream. Am I willing to put in the work, time, and money to build an empire? I ask you the same question, ARE YOU?

Why would you think about quitting your business after 30, 60,90 days with no success? Would you quit a JOB every 30, 60, 90 days? Of course NOT.

That would be STUPID, and you know it. You have to give it time, doing the right things every day.

If you ask the people why they quit, what answer would you get? ” I hope this works for me, but probably won’t”. I have tried so many and they are all scams.

What you should ask is what did they do in weeks one, two, three, four? Most of the time they did no advertising, no follow-up, no investment.

How could this work? It wouldn’t. Rise up and succeed in spite of your circumstances.

Do you not like freedom, money, respect? We offer all these to those who will embark on life’s journey.

What is the cost compared to return on investment? Depending on what niche you get into, your entry fee could be anywhere from 50.00 to 1000.00s of dollars.

I chose high ticket items. The investment was small and the return on investment was high.

Mention: https://pixabay.com/images/search/funnel/

Your funnel is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom for a reason. You want to weed out the quitters, whiners, and broke people. It gets smaller at the bottom where the people who want to invest are and go through each step of the funnel.

How many leads do you want to reach each day? What is your number? You must post ads every day to hit your numbers. Are you showing your business to enough people?

REMEMBER IT’S A NUMBERS GAME, RIGHT? Write you number down, then work like a crazy person until you reach them.

Here is your CALL to join us. Come enjoy life with a group of ENTREPRENEURS who make things happen. CLICK HERE.

CHING CHING CHING CHING . Waiting for the dust to settle, Business Owner calls out JOB.

JOB, you have been time rustling and gold stealing for to long . Either draw or get out of town. The choice is yours. What’s it going to be?

JOB runs for the hills knowing Business Owner is serious. JOB knows Business Owner has a reputation. Business Owner is fair in all his dealings, stands for right and justice.

Business owner has slain more than one rustler and is quick on the draw.

As cute as this story begins, We must really have this type of MINDSET, if we are to break the trading time for dollars mindset. Our mindset needs a big dose of unlimited thinking.

Thoughts come from within and without. From within, thoughts come from the brain and the neuro-network. From without, the thoughts come from Sky/Space.

Thoughts decide our life. You become what you think. If you are preoccupied with garbage thoughts, your life becomes garbage. Similarly, if you think about noble or rewarding thoughts, then life takes shape accordingly.

I have talked to Business Owners over the years. They surround themselves with people, who know more than they do. If you are the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room.

They look for the action takers, book readers, motivation listening people. They are constantly improving their MINDSET.

Most but not all are organized, set goals, have a calendar they live by. They set smaller increments of time in which to get things done. 30 minutes per day for phone calls, 30 minutes for texts, 30 minutes for emails. Their blog is 45 minutes. So far 2 hours and 15 minutes is their day.

They have some their income producing activities out of the way. They can concentrate on advertising, writing another chapter in their upcoming book.

Their speech is peppered with professionalism. They listen intently and ask lots for questions.

They are outside the box thinkers. They live hard, play hard, and LOVE with all that’s within them.
