Today on the podcast we are talking about what is holding you back from your dream.

Often times we think people are watching what we are doing, judging us, and passing judgement. Until someone compliments us on what we're doing or what we've chosen to do, it's really hard to get past that. 

Truthfully, it's all about your limiting beliefs. 

So many times when we think someone is saying something about us, it actually is not really true.

It is our own limiting beliefs that are coming up. They are telling us we're not able to do it. 

Maybe it's a past experience that makes you feel that way. 

Maybe you have a limiting belief, thinking, “I am only a teacher. That's all I can do. That's all I'm good at.” But is that necessarily true? 

I want you to pay attention to all the thoughts you have in your head throughout the day. The majority of our thoughts in our heads are generally negative. The secret is to transform those thoughts.

Listen in to this episode to hear what you can do to stop those limiting beliefs from coming up and ruining your success.

Many teachers looking for a way to replace their teaching income turn to mlms/network marketing/direct selling.

It becomes the first time they were actually able to dream.  They see others having success, living their dream, and doing big things.

For the first time in a long time they feel like they are able to dream.

It’s a great place to start, but it’s hard to make consistent, sustainable, recurring revenue quickly.  (This is why you see many top network marketers selling online courses.)  

Now this is NOT a podcast where I am going to bash network marketing because that’s where I started too.  However now that I’m on the other side I have learned a few things.

You might be someone who has joined a network marketing company because the products are amazing or you saw someone else have great success and you’ve been chasing that too.

Maybe you’re making thousands per month or maybe barely even hitting a hundred dollars.

Maybe you’re sending messages that feel icky to you but you are doing it for your dream.

But… what else could you do? 

Tune into this podcast as I give you an idea of something else you can do that doesn't involve network marketing.

I loved teaching.  It was ALL I ever wanted to be from the time I was 4.  I never pictured myself being anything else but a teacher. 

I had a hard time with the word “quit”.. I was raised to never ever quit. I have 4 teacher certifications, a bachelors, and masters degree… add up that time and money...eek!  I planned on going all in on teaching and climbing the salary schedule, but when I became a mom everything changed.

Listen in to this episode to hear the ten things that happened when I left my teaching job.
