I don&#8217;t have the time<br \/>\n2.    I don&#8217;t have any money<br \/>\n3.    Wife, Hubby, Significant other, Relative, LIFE (Birth, Death, Illness, layoff, Move, other)<\/p>\n<p>The #1 Reason people Quit&#8230;  <strong>Time<\/strong> &#8211; &#8220;takes time away from family, friends, hobbies&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Truth is:  If someone were to get another part time job in order to make more money &#8211; they would have to take time away from family, friends, hobbies.  They would have to negotiate with family members for the time away, for someone else to do their chores, for the extra use of the car, for the extra expenses associated with clothing, travel related to the other job.  And what&#8217;s worse is &#8211; the time away would not be flexible&#8230;they would not be able to say to their new boss &#8211; &#8220;<em>I&#8217;ll be there right after I clean the garage, go to My kid&#8217;s game, take care of my sick cat, parent, etc&#8230;<\/em>&#8221;    So Yes absolutely you must have all those same negotiations when you decide to make the time to build your business.  And the great thing is that when you have your own business &#8211; you get to decide the business time versus family time.<\/p>\n<p>The #2 Reason people Quit&#8230; <strong>Money<\/strong> &#8211; They say &#8220;can&#8217;t afford it&#8221; in other words they fail to see any capital output as an investment in building their business.  OR they&#8217;ve failed to get over their emotional issues relating to money&#8230;usually having to do with asking for the sale.<\/p>\n<p>The Truth is:  Everyone has money &#8220;issues&#8221; and their success in business, as measured financially, is directly related to their ability to &#8220;get Right with Money&#8217;.  Only Consistent, Persistent, hard work on yourSelf is required.<\/p>\n<p>The #3 reason people Quit&#8230;<strong>LIFE<\/strong>  &#8211; Negative spouse, friend, relative.  Too old, too young to retire.  Health &#8211; injury, illness, Bankruptcy, Births, deaths, divorces, and other significant life events.<\/p>\n<p>The Truth is: LIFE is WHY we have our own business.  The same events happen to all of us.  Some people use the &#8220;events&#8221; or &#8220;stuff&#8221; of life as reasons, excuses to play small, shrink or pull back.  Some people let their negative friends and family talk them out of their dreams and goals.  (Understand that when people do that it is most often due to them not wanting to step up and improve their situation so they try to hold you and others down at their level.)  You and I use the same &#8220;events&#8221; or &#8220;stuff&#8221; as fuel, reasons to expand, grow, excel, succeed,   BE, DO and HAVE more.  It&#8217;s always our choice because&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>It&#8217;s NEVER what happens to you &#8211; it&#8217;s ALWAYS what you DO about it<\/em>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Live with Intention,<br \/>\nDr Bill<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Good Morning Team &#8211; Here are the Top 3 reasons people Quit their business; 1.
