#1 I learned how to go from
EMPLOYEE MINDSET to Entrepreneur Mindset.
As I like doing sports and enjoy weight lifting let's take a personal trainer as an example..
- Employee mindset - Would say, "Let me go work for someone with a Gym and be a personal
trainer so I will get paid by the hour."
- Self Employed mindset - Would say, "Let me gather and teach a class of people so I
can get paid more. Instead of one person paying me $50 an hour I can take 10 people
in a class and charge $20 an hour."
- Business Owner mindset - Would say, "Okay, I love being a personal trainer and all and
I would not mind teaching classes because it's a passion of mine and I love helping
people, however I want to get paid like a boss or at least what I feel I am worth."
So they will go ahead and not only have a job in gym, but also say, "Let me create a
course for $40 which people can buy and do it in their home . I can sell my course not
only locally, but online to as many people as I desire."
"I can sell 30 courses a day through advertising on Facebook, creating instructional videos
on YouTube, etc." In my town I only have 50,000 people and maybe only 500 are even interested
in getting fit.
This limits how much I can physically make. If I sell my courses online worldwide to people
in USA, Canada, Australia etc. well than I expanded my market reach tenfold. $40 x 30
courses is $1,200 a day in revenue. That will come in if I am sleeping or being personal
trainer.
If I still desire to teach private or group sessions locally that is gravy on top my online
leveraged income. If I decide to travel to Thailand for 1 month my online income will
still be happening. If I am an employee and take off that month, my bank account dwindles
because if I am not working I get NO income. Same with being self-employed, If I am teaching
physically, all the income stops right away.
The business owner gets the best of both worlds. This scenario I just painted for you was to
just open up your mind.
When I came across this information and discovered that this is possible, it was like "How could
I ever be happy with an employee mindset?" I knew that I want to become a business owner
and help as much people as I can not only locally but worldwide.
The business I am in is personal development, and I market courses that help people get
better results in different areas of their lives.
It might look like a fight in the beginning between Employee VS Entrepreneurial Mindset,
but it's not that hard to change.
