For whatever reason, we delay doing what we want to do because we think we should be doing what we need to do. What we need to do is live our life with purpose and passion doing what is it we love to do. You don’t have to quit that job today but if the job is not what you really want to do, what are you waiting for? LAUNCHWITHMARK.COM

This is my story. The story of a 13 year old that holds you back. That kid lived in me for decades telling me I couldn’t do it. Does that kid live in you?

The best social media site for you to use is the one you will post on. Whatever site you will use consistently is the one you should use. I like people to start on a podcast but if your zone of genius works better with a different one then use that one. LAUNCHWITHMARK.COM

A paycheck is by no means security but many people I talk to think that it is. The paycheck can be taken from you at any time. You could be fired, your company closes, you get sick or many other reasons. The only way to guarantee your security is to make your own check by providing value to people yourself. Never depend on a job to get you the money you need. LAUNCHWITHMARK.COM

People who charge a low price will forever be grinding to find clients and never make a living. Don’t be the Walmart of whatever you are doing. Know your worth and charge accordingly. You can charge $3000 and people will gladly pay to you to have you solve a problem. Clients need to be invested in what they are doing. Raise your prices. No one will think they are going to get any value out of a $30 course. Ready to make a living on your own term? LAUNCHWITHMARK.COM

If you are looking for some perfect date in the future to live the life you really want to live you are just putting off making a decision. We all do it and it is time to stop.

I don’t care where you post it but get in the habit of making an offer to people. Provide the solution to a problem. You don’t have to solve world hunger, just get someone from A to B. Ready?
