Still Broke But Still Grinding? Why Your Online Marketing ‘Failure’ Is Actually a Purpose Jackpot. | Faith to Freedom Vlog #5

The Harsh Truth About Your Lack of a Paycheck

Let’s cut the pleasantries. You’re in online marketing or network marketing. You’re doing the daily grind, making videos, sending emails, and what do you have to show for it? Maybe a few meager commissions. Maybe nothing at all.

Your friends think you’re brainwashed. They see your passion and zero-dollar bank account and they’re judging you and frankly, you can’t really blame them. But if you’re still showing up, you’re not dumb; you’re addicted to something far more potent than money.

As I point out in his latest vlog below, the real reason why people stick with online marketing (even without big money) is brutally simple: It gives them purpose.

The Unintentional Self-Help Seminar

You came here for the money. We all did. Don’t lie.

But the moment you dipped your toe into the online realm, something unexpected happened. You thought you were starting a business; you accidentally signed up for an intensive, mandatory self-improvement seminar [01:45].

It stops being about the income and starts being about the personal growth. Suddenly, you’re learning about mindset, communication, and how to view the world through a new lens [01:51]. This industry forces you to become a better version of yourself [05:50], and that is a sense of worth you won’t get from punching a clock for someone else’s dream.

If you quit the moment the money dried up, you weren’t an entrepreneur; you were a mercenary. And you missed the entire, actual point.

Stop Being a Slave to the Cycle of Sleep and Repeat

This shift from income to purpose is particularly critical for those of us juggling a family and a soul-crushing full-time job (like Me, a father of five with a full-time gig).

In the standard 9-to-5, you are essentially a slave to the cycle of “job, go home, eat, sleep, and then wake up, go to your job, rinse and repeat” [06:04]. Where is the passion? Where is the purpose? You don’t have time for it [04:26].

Online marketing is the great loophole.

It gives you a sense of worth, a servant’s heart to help others, and a place to pour your passion [04:41]—all without demanding you get a second job and spend even less time with the people you love [05:09].

Don’t let the obsession with immediate income blind you to the massive transformation you’re undergoing. The money will follow the person you become. It’s not the goal; it’s the beautiful, inevitable byproduct [07:24]. Get your head on straight, focus on growth, and the finances will eventually catch up to the purpose you’re already living.
