Hey Everyone,

We just wrapped up our WHY Challenge, and their truly were some heartfelt and powerful stories shared by the community. This challenge wasn’t just about winning; it was about understanding what drives each of us to build an online business, to dream big, and to push through obstacles...and motivates us to achieve.

We all have very different motivators and that was apparent from the responses, but we also share many of the same whys.

Thank you to everyone who participated and supported each other by reading and liking these incredible stories. Here are the top 5 most-liked comments, each capturing a unique and motivating “why”:

Mel’s “why” was as heartwarming as it was simple: family. Sharing an image of his child, Mel reminded us that sometimes, our biggest motivators are those closest to us. Building an online business isn’t just about financial goals; for Mel, it’s about creating a future for his loved ones.
