When people are considering starting their own Scentsy business (or any direct sales business for that matter), one of their biggest concerns is thinking, “will anyone I know support me?” Even though it’s a little sad we think this way, it’s normal to worry about what others think. And I say normal in that pretty much all of us do it – not normal in that we should feel this way. 😉
Are you living for you or living for others?
So many of us have hopes and dreams for our lives that we want to chase after but we let fear hold us back. We have fear of what others will say, what others will think, and of doing something outside the norm. If this is you, if you’ve got dreams you want to pursue and you want to live your life with intention, you have to live for yourself and stop worrying about what others think.
What makes your heart beat?
You need to ask yourself what makes your heart beat in ways that make you stronger, more courageous, more giving, and more loving. Figure out what makes your heart skip a beat with joy and what makes it miss a beat with dysfunction and distraction…Stop being distracted being everyone else. Go be you. Do anything less, and the unique gift God wrapped in you will never be fully opened.
From the book Undistracted by Bob Goff
I LOVE that! You can’t be YOU if you’re worried about what others think. Don’t let others distract you from being you. You can’t live your dreams if you care more about what others will say than you care about the dreams you have. If someone doesn’t support you for who you want to be and the things you want to do, maybe they’re not someone to keep in your corner.
Do you have a plan for your dreams?
You probably aren’t sitting around dreaming of a life in direct sales but I bet you do have dreams that you’d like to see come true – travel dreams, retirement dreams, dreams to be a stay-at-home parent, dreams to pay for your child’s college tuition. Whatever your dream may be, direct sales could be a way to help you achieve that dream. It’s a great way to make money in the nooks and crannies of your day. If you commit to it and work it consistently, it can eventually provide you with the finances to live out your dreams!
