You need to talk to your spouse, or your best friend, or somebody who can support you, because when times get tough, They've got to remind you why you wanted to do this in the first place.” – Liz Steblay</p> <p>“My calling is to help more people. I love seeing people launch their businesses, and then I get these notes back that say, I won my first client, and I followed the rules from your billing rights class, and I got way more money than I thought I was going to, and I don't make any money from PICA. So, it's those types of emails and notes that I get back, and I'm like, yeah, this is what floats my boat. This is what gets me going. And that, you're right, that's the prosperity part.” – Liz Steblay</p> <p>"Prosperity is not just about the dollars in your bank, it's about the happiness and fulfillment." – Jack Smith</p> <p> </p> <p>LET'S CONNECT: <br /> YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Purposeful_Prosperity<br /> TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@heyjacksmith<br /> Website: https://www.heyjacksmith.com/podcast</p> <p><br /> FOLLOW FORTUNA BMC:<br /> Facebook: www.facebook.com/fortunabusinessmanagement<br /> Instagram: www.instagram.com/fortunabmc<br /> Twitter: www.twitter.com/FortunaBMC<br /> Website: www.fortunabmc.com</p> <p> </p>
