The Secret Weapons of Success
There are two things that will determine your success or failure
in business. Actually, they will be the source of your rise or
fall in life whether or not you choose to make money online.
The first success factor will be what you have between your
ears. A wise man once said "As you think, so you become." No
truer words have ever been spoken.
Your mindset is your life and you control it by feeding it
health food or junk food. The mind is like a machine that helps
to create whatever it focuses on. This happens even if you're
not aware of it.
Everything in your life today, good or bad, is a product of your
past thoughts. If you don't know what you want you're going to
keep on not getting what you want. You have to take the time to
figure out what you want and then to keep your mind focused on
bringing it to you.
This isn't some new age philosophy. It's been taught over and
over by some of the worlds greatest successes for centuries.
Why? Because it works.
How do you put your mind to work for what you want?
Telling you how is the easy part:
- Feed your mind with books, tapes, music and movies that
inspire you and motivate you to create the life of your dreams
- Avoid negative input from books, music, movies, TV, news and
magazines that have a reputation for being cynical.
- Surround yourself with positive people and keep "dream
stealers" out of your life permanently. Life's too short to
spend time with complainers instead of creators.
- Say affirmations of how you see yourself in the life you want.
- Be grateful for whatever you have. When you give thanks for
what you have you will attract more of what you want.
- Seek out mentors. Find people who are where you want to be.
Read about them, contact them and ask how they got there.
Getting you to do these things is the hard part. Not because you
don't want to. It's because our busy lives can be filled mostly
with negative media and negative people. You can get out of this
trap if you stay awake and aware to filtering negativity out of
your life. This will change your life in ways nothing else will.
So it's worth it.
The second success factor ties into this. It's ACTION. The
single worst enemy of a human being is procrastination. It
steals your time and nothing is more valuable than your time.
Wasting time is wasting your life.
If you are building a business online you need to take action by
making a business plan, reading it daily and most importantly -
working the plan. Don't just think about it. Even if you can
only put in 5 hours a week. Plan out when you will work and what
you will do when you work. Then don't let anything keep you from
sticking to your plan.
By taking repeated actions to build your business you can tell
your brain what you value. It will lead you to wake up with
breakthrough ideas. You'll start coming into contact with people
that think like you and who can help you climb the ladder of
success. You'll keep laying one brick at a time and suddenly
you'll look back to see you built a road that leads to the
success you want.
Now you've got the secret weapons for success. Keep your mind
focused and clean. Take daily actions to build your dreams.
Sounds simple, but it's easier said than done. Just do it.
