Knowing what you are working for will keep you going when you meet those bumps in the road. It will make them just that, a little bump, not a chasm to fall into or a mountain to climb. Growing any business is at best a challenge so you need something to get you going and keep reaching for what you want.
Recognize and believe that You have the power to become anyone you want. If you are willing to lay out the plan, plot the course, and work at it, you can become the person you want to be. Your "why" will keep you on course.
To craft your 'why' think about who you have been, what you have done, and what is important to you. What do you do when you have free time? What makes you energized, and what brings a smile to your face? What would you 'give your right arm for!'
Think about places that you have been that really made you feel good. How did you feel, that can be the first part of your 'why'.
All of these things will help you to figure it out. It is a work in progress, and will change and grow with you. Try not to make it about things, make it about people and goals, and what you want to be remembered for. Make it something that you feel so strong about it makes you cry. You will be glad you did.
