Why is this important to you?

Here’s a powerful exercise. Ask yourself this question and write down your answer. Ask the question again. Then ask it again. For example, if your goal is to become a Senior Director or to make $3,000/month with your Melaleuca business, and you ask yourself why this is important, your first answer might be, “So I can quit my job.” Ask it again: Why is quitting your job important to you? “So I can stay home with my kids.” Why is staying at home
