3 Keys to Going Real Big Time

You want real success? Well, there are 3 keys to going real big-time: 
  1. Remain jobless.
  2. Use the freedom wisely.
  3. Sell
True freedom is a must if you wanna go real big-time. If you keep your job, sorry, all systems will remain too busy that you won't even get a chance to glimpse what real success is. Employment is good only for a while--maybe 1 or 2 years. More than that, it's slavery. No slave will go big-time, ever. You know the story of Exodus in the bible? The Israelites thought they were going big-time erecting Pharaoh's pyramids and store cities, not realizing that all they were were pathetic slaves. 

Well, some of them got promoted to being "foreman" or supervisors, but slaves nonetheless. Employment can make you feel "big-time" with positions and titles and promotions and salary raises, but they're really nothing, good only as far as you're pleasing your boss. But you'd never reach your true potentials. Your true God-given potentials alone will set you free to achieve real success and happiness with your family.

There's this guy who works like a beaver for his company. He's being sent to far away places, going to work even on Saturdays and Sundays, away from his family most of the time. He thinks he's doing all these for his family. He never sees through the deception. He never realizes that only his company is benefiting from all his hard efforts. All he does for his family is provide money.

Remain Jobless

Very few realize that family needs you more than they do your money, hence the growing number of broken or rotten marriages or rebellious family members. It's all because they never see the need to be jobless so they can have more time alone in quietude pondering on what life is really all about and then discovering that being jobless is really a break, an opportunity to set things right so that they can go really big-time in life.

Are you getting this? Your job is standing in the way to real freedom, potentials, and success! All those people trooping to companies in hopes of finding job vacancies are wasting their time and effort--in fact their whole lives and their family members' lives, too!

If you are jobless now and desperate about your life because you're still unemployed or you just got fired or nobody wants to hire you or you're just a home body, fret not. Cheer up! God has put you in a position for  real success. It's just a matter of you using your God-given imagination (He gave each one of us enough to discover what life is really for) to figure out that remaining jobless is really a blessing.

Having a job can even seem like a curse--and I think it is--because, remember, when God punished Adam and Eve in the Fall, part of the curse was that from then on man would have to sweat it out just to eat and live. Meaning, from then on, man got a job! Whereas before that, he was plain jobless big-time! All he did was have "dominion" over creation and simply pick fruits from trees to eat and live abundantly.

If you want the best things in life, remain jobless. Are you jobless? Ha! Go jobless big-time!

Use the Freedom Wisely

When you're jobless, you got lots of time to spare. Use the time wisely. Talk to God. Then think about what life is really all about. Are you here to just work for somebody all your life? Or are you here to hone your full potentials? 

How about money? How can you get all the money you need to live in freedom and use that freedom for really worthy things to do in life? Can you get that money from employment? Do you know of anyone who lived freely to do what he or she had always wanted to do (doing what God had put in their hearts to do all their lives) by doing a job all their lives, by being tied down to a job description as long as they live?

Or, is it more realistic to think that doing a business or investment rather than a job is the only thing that can give you all the money you need to buy back your freedom and live a quality life with your family? So, are you jobless? Then think hard about these things while you're at it.

You know why you're jobless? God wants your full attention so he can show you what he designed you for, so he can talk to you about your real potentials. If you're busy with a job, you never pay attention to the still, small voice that keeps telling you that you're worth more than what your company is making you believe. God wants you to prosper. But you have to listen and take risks. Moses took a great risk when he told the Israelites to quit their jobs and do a business somewhere out there. "Where?" the Israelites asked. "I don't know," Moses replied, "we just have to listen well to God and take risks! Step out in faith"

And lots of times, we need to group with others who are of a similar situation and desire when taking risks. It's riskier being alone, although it's possible--if you're sure you have to do it alone--but there's safety in numbers, especially when travelling in the great wilderness out there. So, find a business that will allow you to do things in groups--a group of people who are intent at being jobless big-time. Are you jobless? Than this is for you.

SELL

Don't do a job--SELL! Fact is, money is in sales. And I believe selling is for everyone. God made us so that we all have the ability to "offer" or "share." Well, some can do it better than others can, but the point is, we can all do it. We can all have some success at it, if we take it to heart, aiming for freedom and going jobless big-time enough to live well. You won't believe the guys who have made it big in sales but who never seemed to be good at selling anything once upon a time in their lives.

No, don't get employed to sell so that you'd have a salary plus commissions. Well, you can do that for a while, but better if you do it without being an employee. Just be a freelance sales agent. That way, you can have freedom to do quiet times with God and with yourself. Spending some quiet time alone to meditate God and life is vital. It keeps you in proper perspective and it gets rid of stress.

Selling can position you for a business you are gradually mastering as you sell (employment can never do this). Selling a product for a long while leads to product and marketing mastery. That can launch you into business. And as I've said, you can do this in group so that your collective efforts can better assure success. It's what others call as a sales team.

Are you jobless? Well, don't worry about it. Your success key is in sales. Start analyzing your capabilities and the products you like most. And then see how you could do sales with them. Now. whatever you do, don't get negative about it. Just do it! Remember, many others have tried and succeeded, among them is yours truly. When I started in sales, I didn't seem like I was a born-salesman. I had a lot of bad deals. There were times when I got zero sales. But I just kept doing it, looking for the right products to sell. 

First I was an employed sales agent, scouting for the right business as I did. Then finally, I landed on one. I'm not yet a millionaire, but I and my wife are making good business so far. And we're doing it with a team of folks who also want to remain jobless big-time, who got their freedom by quitting their jobs.

Remember, you're worth more than a salary. You're worth a good life.
