Do What You Love and the Money Will Follow???

Most of the time I can’t believe how fortunate I am to love
what I do so much and get paid for it. But every so often I
have one of those days when I wish I could just go and get
a regular job. Do you ever have days like that?

The thought of getting up, going to a job where someone
else has all the responsibility, and coming home and being
absolutely done for the day occasionally seems so
appealing.. for about half a second.

Yes, my fantasies about being a barista in Starbucks, or
selling books all day in Barnes and Noble never last much
longer that that. ‘Cause the truth is, I’m essentially
unemployable in the “real” world.

The closest thing I’ve ever had to a regular job was
working in a wool factory in Yorkshire, England when I was
a teenager the year between high school and college. I had
to punch in every morning and punch out every evening. I had
to explain to someone when I had to go to the loo
(translation: bathroom). The whole experience made me
realize very quickly that “jobville” was not for me.

So I’ve had my own businesses ever since. Some were very
successful, some moderately so, and some.. well let’s just
say they were great learning experiences.

But always I followed my heart and my passion. You know
that thing they say.. “Do what you love and the money will
follow”? I do believe that’s true, but I don’t think that
it’s the whole truth. Not at all. If it was there would be
no starving artists (or massage therapists for that matter)
in the world.

What I’ve found out is that there are certain qualities and
skills that a person really needs to develop if they are to
be truly successful in any entrepreneurial endeavor. But
also important is attitude and the “success mindset”. More
about that soon.

Are You Sick and Tired of it Too?

Are you sick and tired of hearing about how hard it is to make
really good money as a massage therapist?

Tired of hearing all those stories about the growing
competition as new therapists flock to the profession?

Well we don’t buy it for one second either!

‘Cause the truth is there are many massage practitioners
making an EXCELLENT living doing what they absolutely love!

And they probably don’t work any harder than you. They’ve
just figured out how to work smarter.

But there are two aspects to working smarter. One is doing
the right things, but just as important (maybe more so) is
doing things RIGHT! And doing things right has as much to do
with attitude and mindset as the actual actions you take.

Have you ever noticed how one week you can do certain
marketing activities and nothing happens, and another week
you do the EXACT same things and your phone rings off the
hook

Huh!! So what’s the deal here? Could it have anything to do
with your attitude, intensions… your MIND!

So, Massage Your Mind is for therapists who are sick and
tried of swimming upstream against the current and are ready
to “change their mind and change their life”.

We will be exploring lots of resources to stretch your mind,
bend your mind and massage your mind into prosperity.

So do stick around.
