I know many of you have businesses from home now as Tim and I do, and this Metaphor that I shared with our entire organization is RIGHT ON
 
Tim and I choose 11 WRONG DOORS over 10 years, but we didn't quit opening new doors till we got it right!  SECRET:  The HIGHER

your income goals, the MORE and LONGER the effort will have to

be when you FIND the right door!

 

The Metaphor below is long, but

REALLY read and THINK about it because it's 100% TRUE (I'd

print it out and read it over and over again).....  Then MAKE a decision..... You can

CHOOSE to sit and wait for the last and final exit, or

you can CHOOSE to invest effort now by taking

ACTION and opening the doors along the way and truly LIVE

LIFE before that final exit arrives!

============================================

::A Motivation Metaphor You Can Use to Change Your

Life::

Picture this. You're standing on conveyor belt. It's

carrying you down a long, narrow hallway. Each side of the hallway is lined with

closed doors, small signs hanging just above their frame.

The messages on those signs is something that you need to pay

close attention to. Very close attention.

The speed of the

conveyor belt isn't too fast - slow enough to let you comfortably open and step

through one of the doors - but not much time to question your

choice.

After a few moments, a door has passed you by

forever.

Peering down the long hallway you see the belt is heading toward

a larger door marked 'EXIT.'

You have a fair amount of time before you reach this door,  but

make no mistake, you are forever moving toward

it.

What is Written on Those

Signs???

_________________________________________________

After

a few minutes, your curiosity gets the best of you and you focus intently on the

writing above each door.

After passing a few doors

trying your best to make out the small writing, you realize that each sign

contains a personal goal, a change you've always wanted to make or a dream

you've always wanted to achieve.

This

corridor is your life.

Each door is an

opportunity for change, for happiness, for success. Everything you have ever

wanted to be, do, and have is represented by each door along the

corridor.

 

And just

like life, the longer you wait to step through the doors, the greater the chance

that they'll pass you by.

Eventually nearly every door will be

behind you, impossible to enter. I say nearly because

only one will remain - the one at the end of the corridor.

Before we move

on, I have a question for you.

Do you know what would

be written above each door? Do you know what you really want today, tomorrow,

    Awesome! Thanks for sharing. I do believe that success lies within each of us. You have to be willing to step outside of the box, work hard, stay committed and face challenges as stepping stones.
