Are you on track as an entrepreneur? If you’re network marketing when that means you have some of that entrepreneurial spirit and know the importance of making your own financial luck and not relying on someone else to pay your bills.

But the simple reality is that people with an entrepreneurial spirit are a dime a dozen. Yes, they are everywhere but what separates those who make it from those who don’t is a seven letter word called courage.

I’m not meaning to insult anyone when I say this because the truth is, I was an entrepreneurial coward up until a few short years ago until someone said these words to me…

“You’ll never get past the entrepreneurial breakwaters until you conquer that fear inside you and step outside your comfort zone.”

You see, up until then, I’d tried and failed in several network marketing businesses, one I had established a $900 a week income before self-destructing.

What happened?

I got into uncharted territory that is, I was on track to financial freedom but the strange thing was I was afraid. People wanted more of my time and it made me nervous. I went back into my shell and started passing off stuff I should have been doing to my downline.

Eventually, my lack of effort started to resonate down the line and while I had some dedicated people, when I wasn’t being seen in putting in the effort then they saw this as the green light to do the same.

That $900 a week income soon fell to $800 then $700 then $600 until it almost disappeared. It hurt but still I didn’t do anything about it and was comfortable going back to a job where the income was guaranteed every week and people didn’t demand much of my time.

Can you see where I’m going with this?

The message here is that unless you feel uncomfortable in your network marketing business during the growing phase then you’re not on track. In other words, as an entrepreneur, the more on course you are then the more frightened you’ll feel.
