What Giants Do You Face?

We all have ‘giants’ that we face very single day. Fears, roadblocks, baggage, whatever you want to call it, we all have something that keeps us from moving forward in certain areas of your life.

I still can’t believe I haven’t seen this movie, although I’ve watched this clip many times. If we have some self-perceived image that we can’t do something, we’ve stopped ourselves before we even get started.

What are some of the giants you face and how can you put on the blindfold to those giants so that you can keep moving forward?

Rocky Mountain High

When I first started working from home, my biggest dream, besides not leaving Emily in daycare, was that I thought it would be so cool to be able to have a 100% portable business.

Back in 2001, laptops and mini’s weren’t quite the rage. On the contrary, about the only portable computer at the time was IBM’s Thinkpad and it was big bucks. Back then, many of us were still on dial-up and AOL while waiting for DSL lines to come into the neighborhood.

How things have changed and how things will continue to change! Today, my laptop is more powerful than my desktop and everything I need to access for my business, is web-based.

Forget The Naysayers

If you have naysayers in your life, then this post is for you. You know the ones I’m talking about.

Those are the people who scoff at your direct sales business and say things like, “Oh, nobody buys that stuff any more” or “You’ll never make money at that” or “That’s just one of those ‘things’ that never work.”

They are the ones who try to squelch your dreams.
