195 || [Solo] 3 Commitments to Make Before Spending Money to Pursue Your Dream || Merritt Onsa

Do you feel ready, like really ready, for big things to happen with your dream?

Maybe you’re weighing the pros and cons of hiring a coach who could help you leap over the hurdles in your way. Or investing in a course that’ll provide resources you lack and a supportive community to push you out of your comfort zone. Or there’s that program with the built-in accountability that will finally fill in your knowledge gaps and motivate you to get going on the road to your dream.

IF YOU HAVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT HIRING A COACH, INVESTING IN A PROGRAM, OR BUYING A COURSE TO HELP WITH YOUR DREAM, THIS IS THE EPISODE FOR YOU!

If you have debated any choice that would require a financial investment as you launch your dream (show of hands: who’s researching 501(c)3 status right now?) I want you to hit pause on those plans for a moment and take a listen to this episode about the three commitments you need to put at the top of your list FIRST!

You’ve undoubtedly heard how important it is to first put on your oxygen mask before helping your child or the person next to you on the plane. Because if you can’t breathe, you’re not going to be able to help someone else who needs it!

It’s the same with your dream.

God has given you a vision for investing in others, serving a community, filling a need—whatever it is, but if you run headlong into the dream without tidying up your own house first or without properly ordering the position of your heart, mind, and spirit, then the road ahead will be harder than it needs to be. And you’ll likely end up spending unnecessarily on “solutions” that weren’t meant to solve the issues of the heart.

Listen in for the three commitments you need to make (or at the very least start praying about and making progress toward them) before you get super serious about investing in your dream.

 

I’d love to hear your feedback on this episode.
