A couple days ago Cindy Jacobson sent me a article called How to Increase Your Earning Potential. Someone wrote in and outlined their financial problem...thus the title about earning potential. I thought it was worthwhile to send it to you - it's fundamental and certainly applies to us in our business. The following is what I lifted from the article:
I would advise you and your husband get on a five-year game plan to improve his earning potential. Sit down with him and let him know he can be anything he wants to be. Then help him decide what he wants to be in five years, what he wants to be making five years down the road, and the steps he is going to take educationally or in terms of training to achieve that goal. Today's culture doesn't reward hard work alone. You have to engage the gray matter a little, and boost your brain power. You make more money when you plan to make more money.
Major points:
What do you want to be?
How much do you want to earn five years from now?
The steps it will take - education or training to achieve the goal.
Engage your gray matter....THINK.
You make more money when you plan to make more money.
Does this remind you of a message you've read recently, or a meeting you've attended, or having the same thoughts about how can I boost my earning power? When I read this my immediate thought was that is exactly what it takes to be successful in our business. In all walks of life we have to make the same decisions of what our future will be like. If you have that desire to make your future be more than it currently is, I suggest you might take some time to ask these same questions of yourself. Why not do it today.
Enthusiastically,
Gary Burke
