How badly do you want it?
So you want to become a rock star, right? This was the first question the owner of a record company asked Willie Jolley. He continued: Are you prepared to leave the comforts of your home? Are you prepared to move to another town? To live on the streets, till you make it? Are you willing to get up early and stay up late?
You might not have to pay the price, but are you willing?
Most people are not willing to give their all to be a rock star, a doctor star, a nurse star, a computor star, a sales star, an architect star, an entrepreneur star, a facilitator star, a BrightStar and sometimes people end up being a ‘disastar’ 😜.
What do YOU want? How badly do you want it?
That goal that you have, the new habit that you are trying to conquer…
Are you willing to go the extra mile? To switch of the TV? To read that book that will help you grow? Are you willing to do that which makes you uncomfortable?Are you willing to fight for your dream? To live your purpose?
A lot of people (and I include myself) fool themselves and don’t realise the difference between activity and results. We can be a whirlwind of activity without accomplishing anything.
Ask yourself, what would I do if a were really serious?
If you do the things today that others won’t do, you’ll live the life tomorrow that others won’t have.

And now it story time!
Michael Kelly – a speaker and trainer.
Once upon a time the two evil brothers, Fear and Doubt, were going around from house to house knocking on people’s doors.
When the people would answer the door, Fear and Doubt would rush in and ransack their houses and turn their lives upside down, leaving them too afraid to live their dreams. Fear and Doubt continued to go from house to house, from city to city, destroying people’s hopes and dreams. Then one day Fear and Doubt came to a new Place and saw a beautiful big house and said, “Let’s go there! We can really do some damage.”
Fear and Doubt ran up to the door and knocked, but they did not know this was the home of their mortal enemies, Faith and Courage. Fear and Doubt knocked harder and harder and grew angrier and angrier. Finally Faith and Courage opened the door.
And when they opened the door… there was no one there! They looked up the street, and looked down the street and they saw no one. Because, in the face of Faith and Courage … Fear and Doubt always DISAPPEAR!!!
How badly do you want it? To reach that goal?
Are you going to let fear and doubt keep you away from it?
