GUARANTEED Success Despite Tough Economical Times



Read More: Mindset  |  Personal Development

Sophia & I took our family to the Ringling Brothers Circus this past Friday Night.

Even after all these years, it's still the Greatest Show on Earth!

One of the acts, the Tiger Tamer should be of particular interest to you.

The act reminded me of a story I once heard about how to get through tough times.

Pay close attention here because this one philosophy could help you become a huge success in your business.

It goes like this:

Years ago the circus used to take place under the big top, long before the indoor colliseums and arenas they are held in these days.

One particular night during the most exciting act, the Tiger Tamer, the lights went out.

It was pitch black.

Noone could see a thing.

For a moment, everything completely stopped.

Not a sound could be heard.

There was nothing but complete and total darkness.

Thousands of people could have gone into an absolute frenzy, except that the Tiger Tamer's voice came on a few moments after the lights went out under the big top.

In a very gentle tone, he spoke, "Nobody make a move. Everybody stay seated."

The audience sat silent in the darkness.

A few seconds later, "WhaaaChhhhhhh" went the crack of his whip.

Then he spoke again, "Everyone stay calm. Please remain in your seats."

Nobody moved.

Nobody even flinched.

Not a sound could be heard in the entire big top.

"WhaaaChhhhhhh" his whip went again.

Nothing.

Silence.

Again, "WHAAACHHHHHHH"!

A few moments later, the lights came back on and he continued to finsish his act.

It was as if nothing happened.

The audience was in awe.

But the show continued.

Completely astonished about what took place during that act, a reporter knocked on the Tiger Tamer's dressing room door after the show.

He was to write an article about the Circus that night and had to find out how in the world the Tiger Tamer kept everything under control.
The Tiger Tamer explained to the reporter:

"When the lights went out tonight, I knew I had to take control of the situation. You see, I know a couple of things about those tigers that nobody else knows.

#1 - Those 800 lb Bengal Tigers, although nobody could see them in the pitch black darkness, they could see every single eyelash on every single person in the audience.
 

#2 - If they noticed anyone acting strangely or making any sudden moves, they would viciously attack, mauling anyone in their path.

 

 The Tiger Tamer went on, "So, to make sure that nothing happened, that nobody got hurt....I did in the dark.....EXACTLY AS I DO IN THE LIGHT."
 And this is exactly how YOU get through any tough times in your life, especially tough financial times.
 You do in the dark, exactly as you do in the light. You see, while everyone else is probably worried and filled with fear about the state of our economy, you do not have to let our nation's economy dictate what happens to your personal economy. You just keep on building your business.  You keep on marketing.  You keep on building relationships.  And you keep on becoming more and more valuable to your market every day.
 You know, even in tough financial times like the state of our economy right now, many people still earn a 6 & 7 Figure Income in Home Based Business.
 Why?
 Because those who are willing to help the most people solve the most problems, profit the most.
 And right now, with millions of people looking online to make money working from home to either supplement their income, or even replace it, by positioning yourself in front of these people as the leader they are looking to follow, you can't help but start making a whole lot more money.

But you must learn to get people to come to you.

Because who finds who is a critical part of the equation.

If you must go to them, you are no more than a peddler of your product or service, many times sending a desperate message along with your pitch.

If they find you, you maintain your leadership position and are considered the expert.

This is how you can sign up 5, 10, 20 or more new people every month.

Big ticket or small, there is opportunity for everyone in any company, with any compensation plan and product or service. Don't buy into the hype that there is one sure ticket to success. Your success still depends on YOU and what you are willing to do when most others won't.  If you are a Better Networker, your committment over the next 30, 60, 90 days will ensure that your 2009 is NOT an exact replica of 2008. I'm looking forward to interacting with you and continuing to hear about your success! Aaron Rashkin ~~~~~~~~~~~ Aaron Rashkin is considered a Home Based Business Expert, enrolling well over 1,000 people from a Cold Market and currently has a network reaching over 10,000 people in 15 countries.

Love your post

Thank you for that post!

I really enjoyed the story and it's true, true leaders always emerge, whether if its good times or bad. They know the opportunity is there all the time and that if they can maintain composure and do exactly what they do and know works.

 

We're in the people business, we help other people get their goals. That is how true success comes and that is how success will always come.

Always remember to not let the dollar signs get in the way of helping all the people ;-)

Awesome Message

 HI Aaron,

This is awesome! Thank you for reminding me of this! It made me think of my state of mind. When I go out to prospect I must act the same as i would if I was totally financialy free already ( like being in the light). Sometimes it takes me alot of breathing and praying to help me not focus on my need, but to focus on helping others.

I know when I become more successful I wont worry about money (like being in the light). So now even if its dark, I must act as I would in the light!

Anyway that was really inspiring to me! I love your training! I joined Nadira Haniff's mrkt exprmnt, and have missed ur last two thurs. training. But you betcha Im just working out my schedule to get back on! I always learn so much!

Thanks for everything! TO The Top and To helping others!

Sincerely Karla Canales

Great reminder

Thanks for reminding us that even in economical hard times, the best way to still achieve success is to help others. When we take the focus off ourselves and put it on someone else, it becomes all about them, not me, me, me. This is the best form of unselfishness.

Great Job

Thanks

Great article and photos, too.

We don't always know the 'big picture'.  One day at a time with purpose and vision is a good strategy for success.
