Keep Going

This post has been a long time coming. I have spent a few months learning, growing, experiencing and yes procrastinating.. My post today is based on a piece of advice that we may hear all the time but really stuck into my mind when my father told it to me.... KEEP GOING. The reality is, challenges are going to confront you. It's like walking onto a dodge-ball game and not expecting to have a ball thrown at you. If you are one of those 5% of the population who are ambitious and chasing big dreams (I hope so or this page would not be for you) This should excite you! I have heard soooo many that people have faced from all walks of life but to make this more real for people who read my blog I would like to share a few that I have personally faced in different areas of my life. In Business: I have had all of my customers stop ordering, most of my team drop off, had my organisation drop from $24k in monthly production to $1000 the next month, I have had my business go from $45k in monthly production down to $15k the next month, I have had my top promoter drop off and quit the business, I moved to Europe and had to run majority of my business online and I've had expansions that I put so much time and effort into drop off and stop production altogether. Now most people, especially in the Network Marketing Industry would get to one of these challenges and say... F*ck that, this is too hard or this doesn't work, And trust me I've seen my fair share of people come and go in the 2 years I have been part of the industry. It comes down to your vision and how bad you want it. It's unfortunate to see people leave or give up after getting one battle scar BUT I know as an aspiring entrepreneur who wants to be insanely successful I know this is what I have to go through. The person who faces the most problems WINS. I know what this platform can create and I know I want the end result. Period. In Football: I have broken my leg the week before the start of a season, Then on return the next season broken my arm in a game, Been told to by a local coach when I was 13 that I would never make it pro, Had to move from my family at 16 to a new city, countless extra training session to become better to be able to compete and play well, Move to Europe, Be let go by my agent and told I should move back home and look at other options that football in life, not being selected for teams, unsuccessful trials, terrible games... Now as an athlete aspiring to be one of the best in the world, I constantly battle my emotions and that voice in my head... yes i doubt myself sometimes, yes I hate that it's a hard journey sometimes. Not to mention having $0 in my name, having heartache, living away from your family since 16 to chase your dreams and miss out on family event and just being together. But learn to love the process, it's going to happen anyway so you may as well see these as learning curves to make you stronger! IT'S OKAY TO LIVE A LIFE OTHERS DON'T UNDERSTAND. My focus is on the end result... and of all those down times, not once did the thought of quitting or giving up come to mind as an option. You need to focus on your goals, your visions and your end result. Because it's your life and your opportunity to leave a legacy in the universe. KEEP GOING and make it happen.
Your potential is infinite. Carlo.
