Have you ever struggled to develop a new habit and make it stick, even though you successfully kept your commitment to doing the habit for the 21 days that you were told that it takes for the new behavior to become an automatic part of your identity?

Every time I interact with someone who is building their own online business, I ask them… “What is the single greatest frustration that you are facing, right now, when it comes to growing your online business?” One of the most common responses is FOCUS or LACK OF FOCUS. One person responded this question by saying… “I Have So Many Income Stream Opportunities, But I Can’t Seem To Stay Focused On One!” I totally understand this problem. In this week's episode, I share how I've recently faced this exact issue of deciding where I needed to focus my time, effort and energy when it comes to a completely new set of income streams that I'm looking to pursue in the next year. More importantly, I share 21 separate tips that will help you stay focused on what is most important to you. I have other podcasts that might be of interest to you.

Did you know that half of all businesses are closed within their first year, 80% are gone within five years and that 96% of all businesses fail within 10 years? That means that only 4% of a businesses last more than 10 years. That just means that they are “still standing,” even if they are not “profitable.” I know just how difficult it is to get an online business off the ground. In 2008, I left a successful 12-year career as an insurance agent to pursue my own journey of full-time, self-employment, so that I could do the work that I felt most called to do in this world. I am so thankful for all the sales training and customer service experience that those 12 years as an insurance agent provided. However, having lived a lifetime as an “employee” up to that point, I realized, real quickly, just how much I didn't know about what it took to actually own and operate my own business. My first full year of full-time self-employment was riddled with self-doubt, overwhelm from all that I was being told I needed to do

Growing up, I had always been taught that New Years Resolutions simply don't work. The idea is that in the new year, a person will resolve to get rid of an undesired habit, to accomplish a personal goal or to commit to something that will improve their life in some way. As a young guy, I had attempted to set lifestyle goals for myself. However, somewhere around middle school, I became convinced that everyone was right… these things just don't work. Unfortunately, as a result, I had pretty much given up on “goal setting” all-together. Well, that's not completely true. There were times when I had a strong desire, where I set my mind on a goal that I wanted to achieve and where I remained focused on that goal until I achieved the outcome that I desired. However, these experiences were random and were not a part of any sort of “routine” of goal setting in my normal life. However, that all changed in 2009! It was in 2009 that I was first introduced the to step-by-step formula for achieving any goal that you remain

In this episode, I share 15 choices that I attempt to make, every day, that allow me to kick self-doubt to the curb and move forward with confidence. Choice #1 – I refuse to compare myself to others.

You've probably known several people, over the years, that where involved in an unhealthy relationship with someone and was simply unable to see all the warning signs that things needed to change. Over the years, I've done a lot of one-on-one and group mentoring with people who are full-time self-employed, or who are pursuing self-employment, that are very much involved in an unhealthy relationship that is holding them back from achieving financial success in their business. I'm not referring to their relationship with another person. Instead, I've notice that most full-time, self-employed, individuals seem to have a very unhealthy relationship with MONEY. All the warning signs are there. However, until they do something to cultivate a healthy relationship with money, they will never be able to generate great wealth. In this week's episode, I share why I believe that every self employed person can cultivate a healthy relationship with money and DRASTICALLY increase their income by reflecting, daily, on six af

This week's episode is very different from the content that I normally share in this podcast. The main difference is that this week's episode is very “faith focused.” I am in Anaheim, California for Podcast Movement 2017. My great friend, Phil Mershon had been wanting to have me as a guest on his podcast and I inviting him to come up to my room and we could knock out the interview while were both here at the event. Knowing that I needed to create an episode of my own this week, I asked Phil if he minded if I used the recording for my own show. This episode is the actual recording of where Phil interviewed me for his “Man In The Pew” podcast. I have other podcasts that might be of interest to you.

Recently, my friend, Tammy Adams, provided a question for me to use as a topic for one of my YouTube VLOG episodes. However, when I started to think about how I would answer her question, I knew that the length of time that I wanted to spend answering this question, would make this better suited for a podcast episode. Tammy's question was… “What do you think is the #1 reason people struggle to get their small businesses jump started and earning a decent income?” I share what I feel may be the top five reasons in this episode. Here are a few reasons that I can think of. They feel uncomfortable charging people money for something that comes so naturally to them. They feel that their “gifts and talents” should be offered freely to others. They don’t feel confident in charging ENOUGH money for their products and services to allow them to operate a “profitable” and “responsible” business. They have not been able to find the INTERSECTION between the MARKET PLACE and their gifts, talents, passions, experie

I recently published a video where I gave a tour of my Next Level Studio. This prompted one individual to write a comment on the video (which this person has since deleted). That comment said…. Cliff, you have a LOT of stuff. Do you really need all of that? I mean as a self proclaimed Christian, (I’m anti religion btw) couldn’t you help more people by doing more with less and donating all the money you put into that stuff? … It’s none of my business how you spend your money but I feel like some of you guys that teach entrepreneurship to guys who have little income are kind of rubbing your success in our faces. I know that’s not your intention but do you ever think about what you’re actually putting out there? (No I'm not your audience, and no I don’t have a podcast, and no I haven’t worked as hard as you online, but yes I work hard every day and face my battles as they come) This episode is my response to the questions posed in this comment.
