Your MINDSET is the Number 1 Secret to Success



Read More: Mindset

Systems and training are important, that is true but, all the systems, tools and training mean nothing if you don't work on your ATTITUDE. You ARE what you THINK. Success comes from within. Your MINDSET, the way you think and speak will entirely effect your success in this business. If you want to earn $10,000.00 a month in your business, it's not the systems that make it happen. You MUST become the kind of person who will make $10,000.00 a month.

As the Great Joe Schroeder says, "You'll never out earn the words you use." If you are saying words like, "I'm broke" or "I can't afford that," you are ruining your possibilities for success. It would be better to say, "I choose not to spend money on that today."

Another area to watch the things you say is in relation to your business or your prospects. Some examples of things I have heard distributors say:

"The products are too expensive."

"I have to BUY SOMETHING in order to qualify for a check?"

"I can't get anyone interested in the products." (or business)

"No one wants to go on autoship."

"No one in my downline wants to do anything."

"I don't want to sell anything."

"I don't want to call people on the phone."

"I don't have time for conference calls."

"I don't have time for training."

"I can't afford to go to convention."

"What are you going to do to help me build my business?"

Man! I could go on and on for hours naming all the success busting things people have said to me over the past 15 years.

I once had a distributor in my group who told me there were no people in her area who were interested in natural health products. She lived in Minneapolis Minnesota. Wow!! What a blanket statement prejudging a huge group of people. Well that was over 12 years ago, needless to say, that distributor is long gone.

Funny side note, that same distributor was a self proclaimed network marketing expert who published her own network marketing magazine. Get this: The name of the magazine was called "Small Potatoes." What a horrible name for a business success magazine.

Mindset and the words you use are so important. You should be working on yourself more than you work on your business. Success is all in the MIND. Leaders are READERS! I have literally read hundreds of books in my 15 years in this industry. Hey, that gives me an idea. Maybe sometime I should put a list online of success books I have read.

Besides reading books, listening to audios and participating in conference calls can be a big help in becoming the kind of person who is able to be successful. Find successful people, hang around with them and learn as much as you can from them. Join a Mastermind Group. One I really recommend is the Million Mind March. The co founders are Joe Schroeder and Diane Hochman.

Mindset.....

Melodie: Many times the difference between success and failure was how strong that persons belief system was.

I just published a similar post on my blog about this topic, you have to realize that you have to get out of the employee mindset and get in the frame of mind of a business owner

So very true

Thank you Melodie,

People are always looking for the "easy secret". A button to push for instant success. Anything but real success...

Which naturally starts in the mind.
