21 Hard Things Required To Be Succesful

Posted on by 242fit

In the past few years, my wife and I have learned a few things that are required to be successful in our Advocare business.  Understanding that having a growth mindset is the beginning of getting where you want to be in business and life.  These decisions were uncomfortable and we were forced to ask ourselves better questions in order to get the life we wanted.  It all takes hard work and perseverance, but is all worth it when you wake up every day living a life by your design.  Most of these were taken from an article (http://www.businessinsider.com/hard-things-you-need-to-do-to-be-successful-2014-1) from the Business Insider and I added a few myself.

  • You have to identify what it is that you really want right now, in 6 months, 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years.
  • You have to know that you don’t know.
  • You have to make the call you’re afraid to make.
  • You have to get up earlier than you want to get up.
  • You have to give more than you get in return right away.
  • You have to care more about others than they care about you.
  • You have to fight when you are already injured, bloody, and sore.
  • You have to feel unsure and insecure when playing it safe seems smarter.
  • You have to lead when no one else is following you yet.
  • You have to invest in yourself even though no one else is.
  • You have to look like a fool while you’re looking for answers you don’t have.
  • You have to grind out the details when it’s easier to shrug them off.
  • You have to deliver results when making excuses is an option.
  • You have to search for your own explanations even when you’re told to accept the “facts.”
  • You have to make mistakes and look like an idiot.
  • You have to try and fail and try again.
  • You have to run faster even though you’re out of breath.
  • You have to be kind to people who have been cruel to you.
  • You have to meet deadlines that are unreasonable and deliver results that are unparalleled.
  • You have to be accountable for your actions even when things go wrong.
  • You have to keep moving towards where you want to be no matter what’s in front of you.

Ian and I were overweight, tired, stressed and frustrated. We were unfit, unhealthy, and felt like we were stuck in a rut. On Memorial Day 2009 we both started the 24 Day Challenge. Just 3 days after starting the Herbal Cleanse, we both felt better than we had in years. After 24 days, I had lost 16 pounds and 12 inches. Ian had lost 22 pounds dropped from a 34+ waist down to a 32! We both felt incredible and had more energy then we had felt in years! Within 55 days of taking AdvoCare products and following the eating plan, I had lost a total of 33 pounds and gone from a size 12 to a size 6. Not only did I lose the weight, but have successfully kept it off! Ian is now in the best shape of his life and we plan on continuing this lifestyle indefinitely. Our story took another turn when in Jan. 2010 we decided to start sharing the gift of what AdvoCare has to offer. In our first year we earned well over $60,000 on a part time basis and earned an paid trip to the beautiful island of Hawaii; all while building our business from the middle of the woods in Montana! Fast forward to today. . . We are both stay at home parents to three beautiful children! But the best part is. . . we are doing that by helping others, changing lives, and building a team of champions! AdvoCare opened our eyes to the potential of more in life! We don't just have to accept things for the way they are. We now have confidence and sustained energy and realize that anything is possible. AdvoCare provides real solutions for real people. They gave us the tools, we just had to put them to work. It's literally been that easy! We are so confident in what AdvoCare did for us and know it can do the same or even more for you! Please feel free to contact either of us with any questions or further information on AdvoCare and what the products can do for you! Please email us at info@242fit.com or call 206-349-7446.
