Do you think ? or can you not think ? Or you don't have a brain
I believe there’s a huge difference in the way successful people
and unsuccessful people think, and I believe that success itself
is not some big mystery that people haven’t figured out before,
even though when we’re struggling and fighting and trying to
make it day-by-day to get better, it can feel like this arduous
un-noble process.
Success has been figured out and we all
know it’s a mindset game.
Most of success is just about how we use
our psychology.
I remember when I was starting my business and
I really wanted to be good at it. I was trying to become
an author, a speaker and do these types of videos and
even doing some online training for people on the topics
of motivation, marketing and people were saying you
may or may not be successful with that. I thought;
it’s not like there’s a trait of successful people.
You look across history at successful people and they
aren’t from a given background.
They don’t come from a specific economic stature. They aren’t
in a position where they are of one or another demographic,
it’s all over.
We have thousands of collective years of history, some people
succeed some don’t and I think it comes down to more,
how we manage our mind and our days.
I think there’s a difference between successful and
unsuccessful people in the way they particularly think
about approaching something new.
I think unsuccessful people, when they have a big dream
and start thinking about what’s going to be required to accomplish that dream, they get very limiting in their beliefs about themselves and what’s possible.
They say three types of things specifically… I don’t know how to do that. So they stop. I don’t have those things. I’m not like those people. So they stop. I’m not like that. So they stop.
Successful people have a different way. They have the same thing.
Everybody dreams. You dream, I dream, successful people dream.
Everybody dreams and has a vision.
Everyone, if they could just take five minutes and think
about their lives, we could all come up with ways to
improve our lives and reach another level of success,
joy, happiness, achievement, contribution, fulfillment
and soul.
We can all elevate, the challenge is that unsuccessful
people keep stopping, when they think of what they
currently know, have or are.
Whereas, successful that people say I want to do
that but I don’t know how and instead of stopping
they say, then my job is to go learn that.
They take their current limitation and put it on their
agenda as a job to do, as a thing to figure out and
make happen.
Instead of saying, I don’t have that. They say then my
job is to go build that. Or, I’m not like that than they say
my job is to go become more of that, become that person
who could accomplish those things.
When I was starting to do online marketing for the first time,I had nothing but now a run different online businesses.It wasn’t that I had new opportunities or new technology, like wow there’s the Internet now.
Those things were already there. I went from this level of
thinking to the next level of thinking. I used to say I don’t
know how to build a web page, so I wrote an agenda and
said figure out how to build a web page.
I spent hours, nights and weekends from my job, figuring out
how to do that. I said I don’t have one of those lists,
no subscribers and nobody knows who I am.
So, I said job… go build a list, get subscribers, add value and
content into the marketplace and they’ll come. Keep putting
stuff out there.
You don’t need permission or a guy like me, to say you now have permission, but if you’ve been waiting for it, you have permission.
It’s like at some point in your life you just say okay, I have permission to become my best self and by becoming your best self you start to achieve your best things.
You start to contribute better things. You start to become a
better human being. You can do that now, today.
The next time you’re thinking about a big dream, don’t think about the things of, I don’t know how to do that stop and think, I don’t know how and then set it up on your calendar to go learn those things.
I don’t have that. Then set it up to build that. I’m not like that. Then set it up step-by-step to develop the skillsets and competencies so you can become that and ultimately achieve your dream.
It’s there and waiting for you; don’t stop!
