What I’ve been doing to double my

income each month

Just as I’ve talked about my money story over the years when

times have been hard and nothing I seemed to do worked, I think

it’s just as important (actually MORE important) to share the

SUCCESSES and what IS working right now.

One of the measures of success in creating an online business based on FREEDOM is

money.

I haven’t shied away from talking about the tough times, so I’m sure

as hell not going to shy away from talking about the POSITIVE things

that are happening around money either.

This chart you see is a snap shot of my income increases since April. I’ve been (more

than) doubling my income each month. It’s the 10th of August and I’ve already met

my goal of doubling my income for this month. Now, I don’t know if this rapid growth

rate has happened before in my business. Sure I’ve had ‘big’ wins, times when it’s been

steady and times when, yeah, it’s got tough.

I’ve been in business for 9 years and I’ve never tracked my income as

THOROUGHLY as I do now, so I can’t say for sure if this has happened before or not (I

can’t remember and I can’t be bothered digging back through history), but I’m certainly

AWARE of it now.

This is a pretty freaking incredible income rate growth! Long may it continue (God, can

you imagine if it DOES?! My Dream Home may be within reach after all! ). I’m really

excited about this time and WHILST THIS IS HAPPENING I want to share what’s

working right now!

How this has happened…

You can set the intention and then MAKE IT HAPPEN.

It was around April time that I set myself the intention that I would double my income

each month, and then l shared that intention. The power of accountability? To myself.

And then to someone else? Perhaps.

There is no limit on what I can earn (unlike having a job and being

limited to what my boss deems my worth to be).

By removing the MENTAL limitations on the money I can make and understanding that

there is MORE THAN ENOUGH money in the world for me to have what I want has

been a game changer. I don’t need to feel guilt over earning my own money. It’s

powerful and it’s enabling me to lead the way and help others EMPOWER

THEMSELVES. If I can do it, so can you.

You get what you focus on.

As I mentioned, I’m tracking my income THOROUGHLY. Instead of having a vague idea

of what I have, I know EXACTLY what I have. I track my figures at least once a day. I’m

learning to LOVE my figure more so than any other time! I see my figures as plants,

give them daily attention and they thrive under the nurture! In fact, I’d say this is the

BIGGEST thing I’ve been doing over the last 5 months that has helped me grow

my income at such a rate.

Of course, I’ve been SELLING as well!

I’ve ALWAYS BEEN SELLING over the 9 years, but this time it’s different. I’m putting

less (no) pressure on myself to MAKE the sales. My attitude is different. Take what I

have to offer. Or leave it. I’ve become UNATTACHED to the sale. I’ve stopped

worrying about it. If what I’m offering isn’t a HELL YES to someone, I don’t even want

them to buy it! I’ve ditched the conventional ‘wisdom’ about sales. I don’t want a

conventional business!

Just call me Miss T!

I’ve developed my T­bone (TENACITY!) to such a degree that I’m in awe of myself

sometimes lol. I don’t give up. I never loose sight of why I’m doing that I’m doing and

helping the people I can help. Although over the years sometimes I’ve been to hell and

back, I will NOT back down or give in. I write and speak about the less­joyful times but

I’m sure they only give you a flavour. I can’t explain the pressure of keeping going when

things aren’t successful and I honestly look back and wonder how I did it. If you want

‘overnight success’ be prepared to do the work, for years, for as long as it takes.

No compromise.
