Life Goals Gone Right
Welcome to Jessica’s Jam!
Today I want to talk to you about a really exciting topic and that is:
Your life goals and how to have a MILLIONAIRE mindset!
So, very early on, I kind of had this dream birthed in my heart to be a success. Success can be determined by so many different things, but one of my life goals was to be a MILLIONAIRE! And I can’t really say why that was a life goal of mine, but it just was, and I NEVER doubted it. It wasn’t like I was born into this super rich family and had things given to me. I actually was super fortunate where I was born into a family that required me to EARN things, and that taught me that I was capable of doing the work to get things myself, versus having to rely on other people. So that lesson alone, of course, as a young child or as an early teenager, at first, seemed kinda crappy because I would see my friends around me getting things handed to them. But now, as an adult, I find that held such INCREDIBLE value with making me who I am today!
While I am not officially a millionaire yet, I will say I am definitely on the right track and I will keep you posted on that journey because it’s honestly, CRAZY enough, not too far away! It’s in the very near future, which is why I was so just burdened on my heart to share with you how to reach your life goals, whatever they may be. I’m gonna tell you, there’s a BIG difference between having life goals and between ACHIEVING life goals, and that really comes down to ONE MAGIC INGREDIENT that I believe, and that is HUSTLE.
You know, for some reason, our world has changed into this society that wants INSTANT gratification.
They want zero sacrifice,
zero effort,
they want everything just handed to them,
and it’s just NOT realistic.
You know, whatever happened to the fight and the drive ?
and, you know, the people willing to do the work to get to where they want to go?
THOSE are the people I want to be around.
The people that are ALIVE…
That are willing to possibly skip a few outings with their friends because they want to grow and they want MORE IN LIFE and they want to get to a NEW destination and a NEW place and make a difference.
You know, it is SO incredible to me as I watch people. I help people on a daily basis build an at-home business and you’ll get the people that are excited! They’re on board! They’re ready to go, and then all the sudden when it’s like,
“Oh wait, this is work? This is sacrifice? Oh.. uhh… uh… nevermind! Gotta go! I forgot I’m having a BBQ tonight!”
or you know, just things come up, which I GET IT, things come up, but when your vision and your purpose and where you want to go, is bigger than your present day life, when your life goals that drive you hold more weight in your life, then maybe just having fun on a Friday night, that’s THE HUSTLE. That’s the people that are gonna do BIG things in this world… that think they’re crazy enough to make a difference.
Life Goals Require a Little Sacrifice
When I started by business, I was a full time waitress. I was working doubles, I was working every holiday. I built my business on top of my job in my spare time! And that’s what I wonder… and I want you to ask yourself… What are you willing to do? What sacrifices are you willing to make? Because, guess what? Sacrifices in the moment, you know, in that day, when you’re having to say, skip the BBQ… or not go to the movies… or not order dessert to save money… Whatever sacrifice you make now, I promise your long term, dream-in-life-goal is SO worth it. That little sacrifice is not even gonna feel like a sacrifice when you actually reach your destination and get to where you were meant to go in this life.
So, you know, I remember even with my husband, to him, sacrifice wasn’t a term he was used to! He was used to getting what he wanted, when he wanted, but the issue with that is, you’re never gonna get a lot. Because to get a lot, it actually doesn’t require a lot, it requires a little on a daily basis.
So don’t sell yourself short.
Don’t sell your life short.
And definitely don’t sell your life goals short by going for the short term satisfaction,
when just giving up something small can actually fulfill your long term life goals and dreams,
and CHANGE YOUR WORLD!
I’m living proof of it!
There were SO many times when I picked up a shift at work to earn extra money instead of, like I said, taking the holiday off and sitting at home and relaxing. But in turn, that extra income allowed me the freedom to get to do what I wanted to do later on, and gave me the resources I needed to start my business… which then it was all a trickle effect.
I do have a recommendation for you, if you don’t know where to start, for one, shoot me a message! I help people start their business EVERY SINGLE DAY. For two, there’s a GREAT book called The Slight Edge by Jeff Olsen. It was one of the first books I read. It’s gonna get you on track to realize what the small sacrifices will do long term for your life. Also, The Compound Effect by Darren Hardy. Two FANTASTIC books based on a similar concept. And once you fully understand it, you’ll realize that, guess what? Your life goals and your dreams, they aren’t out of reach, they’re NEARBY. It’s just about you being willing to turn on the hustle, to make the sacrifice to get to where you want to go. I believe in you!
