Fork In The Road
![]()
Watch out for the fork in the road.
Many start out so excited when they
start their business…then the
uncertainty about their ability to
succeed sets in. So they start their
journey out on the road of excitement…
then in the fog they pass the sign…
“I wonder if I can do this?”
They keep walking… plugging into
others, like them, that will help
them along the road. Now they
see another sign that reads
“I have a desire to succeed.”
While traveling the street of desire,
they begin to wish to make their
dream come true, and now become
motivated, consistent and take
action with a purpose.
OH NO… here it is, the street
of fear, here is where they think
“I have desires…I know I want
it…but what if it doesn’t happen?”
Everything they learned so far tells
them to feel the fear and keep
moving on, so they keep traveling
along the road. Here comes the
street of anger, this is where they
say “where are the results?”
“I have been coachable, I have grown,
I took action, I started this to make
money, have freedom….and all I
have is frustration.
Finally they have reached the
fork in the road,
they see two signs… one reads,
courage and the other reads
quit now. Here is where they
must make their choice,
to keep traveling with courage,
trust and faith in themselves or
let frustration win and quit.
Which choice will you make, at the fork in the road?
