Bismillah.
:) now you know why I wasn't revealing the money issue until the last moment. :)
See, when people focus first on the money, without first understanding the value, then it immediately turns them off. Believe me, i'm like that too. Sometimes the first thing I do is find out the price of something, then I go and see if it's worth it. <-- do you do that too? (But now what I do is find things of value and benefit to me, and if it is of benefit, then the money is not an issue. The key thing is: is this of benefit?) Let me explain why I chose the price that I chose, and then I'll give anyone who wants it some coaching on how to afford it if they truly want to:
Why I chose the price tag:1. Because of the close and very personal and high quality work, in sha Allah, I'm going to be doing with the DiscoverULife members, I could not take on so many people anyway. Thus, the price tag was intentionally raised to slow down registration, to get the smaller group. The smaller group was intentional.
2. Traditional non-Muslim coaching, which is just a half-hour phone call every 2 weeks, ALWAYS starts at $300/month. Starting. And for a really experienced coach, it can go to $600/month. That's what I personally pay for my coach, for 2 phone calls per month. And I swear by Allah, it's worth it!
When someone who knows the profession compares what you will get with DiscoverULife vs. traditional bi-weekly telephone coaching, they will easily understand that the price of $247 is much BELOW the value one will be getting in return.
For those who want some coaching on how to afford DiscoverULife:Of course I understand there will be many people who cannot afford this (or think that they can't). If you are one of these people and would love to afford it, but don't know how and need some help, listen up:
1. What got you here, won't get you to where you want to go. Remember the picture of the broken bridge? If someone gets in to the I-can't-afford-it-throw-up-their-hands-in-defeat-and-go-home zone, then picture your dreams on the other side of that bridge. Your Stuck.
And don't think that a discount will get you unstuck. Step up to the plate, and reach deep within, face your fears and DO IT!
2. You are assuming that DiscoverUlife is something to be consumed, with no effect on your life. Oh no. If you come in to DiscoverULife thinking that you can't afford $247/month, in sha Allah make that your goal to make an additional $2470 per month so that NEVER AGAIN in your life will you let go of something that you want because you can't afford it.
Don't allow yourself to fall into the mindset of "I can't afford it"
Adopt the mind set of "How can I afford it?" <-- that's a much better question.
Let me tell you a story. When I started learning the techniques I now know, alhamdulillah, the cost of attending 3 5-day seminars was TWELVE THOUSAND dollars. Yes, count the zeros.
Did I have the money? Nope. Did I know how I would get it. Vaguely. But I prayed Istikharah, and my istikharah was screaming YES YES YES.
So I pulled out my check book and wrote a deposit for $2000 just to commit myself. And life has never been the same again.
In 3 months, I paid off the 12 thousand. And now, when I find coaching that is valuable to me, when they say something like, "Cost: 8 thousand for 6 months" i'm like, Ok, I can do that.
My threshold has readjusted. I never say anymore "I can't afford that." Instead I say, "If this is of value to me, I will find a way to affford it. Sooner or later. In sha Allah."
Some of you might be saying, "Well I'm not like you, I am not at that stage in my life." You know what's funny about that is that that is exactly what I said a couple of years ago. And here I am today on the other side of the fence saying, "Whatever one human can do ... can be duplicated!" And I can show you how, that's what DiscoverUlife is about.
Need me to address something else, just post a comment. Whether you are a DiscoverULife member or not, who cares, I still have best wishes to see you succeed at the highest level!
DiscoverULife is dedicated to making sure the tree of your life doesn't come out like this. In sha Allah.
