I agree totally: mindset is everything!

I actually believe it is the single most important factor determining your success or failure - as the Henry Ford quote says, "whether you think you can or can't - you're right".

It amazes me how this truth manifests itself in my life - when I'm having a down day (hey, we all do right?) nobody answers the phone when I make calls, and as soon as I kick my a*s into gear I'm flooded with new enquiries, orders and team members... in fact, there is one regular customer of mine who quite spooks me.. she orders consistently but not often, and I swear every single time she rings me to re-order, it is on a day when I have been doubting myself and then stopped and thrown myself back into it. She's like my reminder I'm on the right track.. if I will just believe it.

This reply is getting longer than I intended - I actually wanted to say I recommend The Go Giver by Bob Burg as another great book to read. It is all about coming from a place of pre-eminence (focusing on their needs, not yours), which completely changes your posture and the aura you give out to people.

You may want to add "The Magic of Believing" and "TNT it rocks the world" by Claude M. Bristol right along the same lines as "Think and Grow Rich". Which I do agree is a must read if you want to get your mindset geared for success.

I have my favourite quotes from Think and Grow Rich printed and I read it everyday also. They are so powerful, for me anyway, and a great way to start your day in a positive and motivated way.

Hi Sean,

I couldn't agree more. I just finished reading "Science of getting rich" and I'm in chapter 2 of "Think and grow rich".

I believe mind set will keep one going when times are tough and friends are few. I'll go check out your blog for more free books.

Thanks,

Ross.

Sean,

I agree re those 2 classic books, well worth a reread every once in a while. And 6 minutes to success is terrific as well. I have many favourites saved for easy reference. Bob is definitely a leader when it comes to mindset
