Unless you post here for entertainment, you probably want to earn 6 or 7 figures a year. Also, chances are you're not quite there yet (or even close).
What's stopping you from hitting the numbers you've set for yourself as a goal in your mind?
Some examples may include (but are not limited to):
1. want to build wealth, but don't feel like you're able to or deserving of it
2. don't feel like you have an opportunity available
3. don't feel like you can scale the opportunity you currently have
4. don't have enough time to get started because of family, work, want to have a social life, etc.
5. don't have enough money to get started because of bills, debt, job doesn't pay enough, etc.
6. have an opportunity that you feel you can scale, but are having trouble getting customers (sales/marketing)
7. have an idea but want to wait until it's perfect to execute
8. have a desire, and maybe an idea, but honestly have no clue where to start
9. generating significant traffic, but having a hard time monetizing traffic source(s)
10. have lazy and/or unreliable business partners
11. have a growing business but aren't sure how to hire trustworthy, competent staff to support growth
12. afraid to risk losing time without any guarantee of pay
13. afraid to risk losing money without any guarantee of return
14. dream is too small to be truly motivated for action (nice to think about, but ultimately not worth it)
15. dream is too big that it causes paralysis because subconsciously (and/or consciously), it may not seem realistic no matter how much you want to believe in it
16. indecision and inevitably, inaction, due to not wanting to tie yourself down to one opportunity or career track
17. enjoy the theory of business and entrepreneurship, but aren't interested in actually doing it because of the risk involved, including but not limited to fear of failure and embarrassment, or are put off because of the boring redundancy that's often a part of running a business
18. want to make millions, but don't want to start from scratch to get there because your time is too valuable and you are above that
19. genuinely interested in building a successful business one day, but have too much going on right now, and will focus on it sometime in the future
20. still waiting on positive affirmations, prayer, visualization, and the law of attraction to make you a millionaire, because surely, God and/or the Universe loves you and will meet your heart's desires one of these days
21. completely new to the idea of building wealth... still learning what it takes to make this happen
22. need a loan or venture capital, but don't know how to get it (or simply can't get it)
23. have this ground-breaking idea in your mind with the potential to make millions, but can't get others to see it the same way you do
24. have a company (legally, at least - plus, you have a cool logo and/or website), but are having a hard time developing a product or service the market wants
25. get bored with an opportunity before it becomes successful, and need to hop from industry to industry because serial entrepreneurship is your thing
26. have a physical disability and/or health problems substantial enough to prevent you from doing regular business
27. have too much mental and/or emotional stress from things going on in your life, which prevents you from having the focus needed to build a successful business
28. don't want to potentially work 60-80+ hours a week for an indefinite period of time (with no guarantee of any return whatsoever) because money is important, but life's not all about money and some things are just not worth it
29. not familiar enough with technology, business, or anything else you think you need to be successful, and are intimidated by what it takes to learn everything and stay up to date to remain competitive in the marketplace
30. want to start a business and build wealth, but kind of believe that rich people are rude, ruthless, selfish, and uncaring, and have a hard time juggling these conflicting beliefs
I'm just doing a little bit of personal research and your input would be greatly appreciated. You're welcome to just respond with the number, or numbers that represent your situation, or you can type up whatever it is if it's something else.
This may also help to clear up some thoughts in your life or business as well.
