Doing what you love all day long!
Isn’t that what we all yearn for? To be able to do what we love, all day long?
I guess it’s the reason so many people look forward to retirement - so they can leave the hateful or boring day-job and enjoy endless gardening, or travelling, or reading, or whatever floats their boat!
But why wait?
Why wait till your best years are behind you to get started on what you really want to do?
It’s not true that you have to wait till retirement to start enjoying your life wholeheartedly!
• Sometimes it’s a “last straw” that tells us it’s time to change.
• Sometimes it’s a shaft of light, shining on our possible path!
Whatever it is that’s stirring within you, allow it to come up for air and see if it’s something you can do!
Well, I don’t know about you but I’ve always tended to do what I want. And you know what I’ve found?
I’m still alive! I haven’t starved to death! My children didn’t starve to death! We always had a roof over our heads.
Why?
Because I believed that if I did something of value, somehow the money would come … and you know what?
It always did.
Sometimes there wasn’t a lot of it, granted, but it always came. It’s a fair exchange. I wasn’t sitting about doing nothing and expecting to be fed and watered. I was doing something I felt passionate about - and if YOU feel passionate about something then there are going to be others who are equally passionate, and that’s your audience!
Think on that for a moment! There are people out there who are looking for YOU! They want what ONLY you can give them. Those are the people who will pay you for your service.
And if you don’t provide this service, you are denying them the opportunity to learn from you!
Had you looked at it that way? It may be a new way of looking at it but it’s true!
Supposing all those people who’ve transformed our lives with their inventions and discoveries had decided to wait till the time was right?
Would we have the light bulb?
The car?
The washing machine?
Easy travel?
Television?
Cheap and easily accessible books?
All the learning and knowledge we’re swimming in thanks to the interwebs?
But how could I replace my income?
Naturally, if you’re going to make a complete and sudden change you need a bit of a buffer - some savings you can tap into until your income is replaced. But most people do this gradually. They study their new subject while they’re still working their day-job and still earning.
That’s a great way to get started!
If you work long hours, you can still do this! Your enthusiasm for your new direction will ensure you have the energy to fulfil your duties to your employer while building your fortune.
Instead of arriving home exhausted and ready to collapse into an armchair you’ll come home ENERGISED - unable to wait another moment before jumping into working on your new business!
Now most people think this means they have to study their chosen new subject, take exams and get certified in it. And things will then magically happen. And for some things certification is a legal requirement before you can get going, for doctors, lawyers, and so on.
BUT just studying the subject you love - however expert you may become at it - won’t get the cash register trilling!
For that you need to learn how to apply your learning, find who wants your expertise and - critically! who will pay you for it - and how to run a business easily and smoothly. You’ll want to keep your records all hunky-dory for a start and ensure the taxman is your friend. And we are so fortunate that so much of this can now be automated!
It really does make life so much easier: no mounds of paper spilling off your desk, no sudden demands catching you out. If you automate all your systems you have everything under fingertip control - and there’s very little you can’t automate! This is how I can manage so many different facets of my working life without burnout: automation is the secret!
And it’s a secret I’m happy to divulge to anyone who would like to work with me to get their heart’s desire up and running as a going business concern, so they really can do what they love all day long!
Along with helping people transform their daily lives in a variety of fields, I’m working with a number of dog trainers at the moment, specifically guiding them as they get their dog schools started or growing bigger.
They have plenty of skills and expertise in the dog training area but doubt themselves when it comes to offering these skills to the world.
They didn’t start their schools because they wanted to become businesspeople!
They started because of their passion for working with dogs all day! And many of these gifted trainers are completely befuddled by tech, by how to manage social media, how to attract enquiries and turn them into clients, how to value their time, how to manage their schedules … and so on.
As a result of how well these students are all doing I’m now able to offer this more widely. The program is welcoming students right now! It supports dog trainers in building a viable business helping dogs and their owners while generating income - and without burnout!
Here’s what one student had to say:
“I felt lost and overwhelmed before I began the program now I have clearer plans and problem-solving strategies.”
I’m excited to be able to help these thoughtful and sensitive dog trainers bring their force-free dog training to a wider audience.
In the Brilliant Family Dog Trainer Business Program, alongside a thorough grounding in the tech and systems you need to succeed, coaching helps the students build up their confidence, banish impostor syndrome, and get out there and work with the dogs!
Here’s what another student had to say,
“I have learnt so much from this program which has given me confidence to push my business forward.”
So if you’re thinking of shifting into a new life where you can do what you love - all day long! give me a shout at www.beverleycourtney.com/chat and tell me what it is you really want to do.
If it’s a dog business then you’ll want to hear more about the program I mentioned above.
And if it’s nothing to do with dogs?
I can help you there too, as I already have with other clients! Developing the confidence to offer your services to people - then finding a way to offer this service - is essential, whatever your chosen area of work.
Don’t you OWE it to yourself to spend your one precious life doing what you truly want to do and do what you love ALL DAY LONG?
