This happened to when I was working as a legal messenger.  Day after day, Monday through Friday, I would get up and go do the same mundane job over and over again, driving legal papers all over town.  I was used to it.  It was the status quo.

Then, when I finally started to make an income online, I had to tend to it more often, and change my old habits.  No longer could I come home and veg out in front of the t.v., wander the internet aimlessly, drink a bottle of bourbon, and then pass out, only to get up the next day and do it all over again.

When that first check arrived from doing online business, that all had to change.  I needed to raise the bar.  I had to come home and do blog posts, build my email list, seek out partners, and so on and so on…

It’s a simple yet profound shift that has to happen inside you.  For me, it was triggered by that first check, that first taste of success…

The point is, don’t be afraid of raising the bar when you achieve success.  Since you’ve now become successful, you should enjoy the fact that you have new responsibilities, which, when taken care of, will keep on building a better future for yourself, your family, friends, etc.

Take action and raise the bar!
