Once you say, "I can't", you're right!
Henry Ford was quoted as saying, "Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right." This is the absolute truth whether you succeed or fail in whatever you do.
Our thinking is much more powerful than most people give it credit.
Whether consciously or subconsciously, your actions are first determined in your mind before they are realized physically.
As a network marketer, I get hammered by many statements as, "That doesn't work", or
"I tried that before and it bombed." My answer is usually, "Really? Hmmmm, I must be doing something wrong then because my results are the total opposite."
Once you say, "I can't", you're right.
Once you say, "It won't work," yep, you're sunk.
When you want to accomplish a goal, start a new venture or just trying to decide what to do, what is your mindset? Is it positive or negative? Guess which side of the fence successful people falls on? Guess what thoughts run through their heads when the little light bulb comes on? Do you think it's a positive thought or a negative one?
Here's a complicated equation for you to absorb...are you ready?
Negative = Sinking Yourself
The fact of the matter is that opportunities are presented to everyone. It all depends on how you react. You have the choice as to what you read, who you listen to and the direction you move toward.
Are you going to listen to the person that always says, "I tried that and it didn't work", or the one that is successful at it?
Think positive instead of negative. It's as simple as that. However, change doesn't happen overnight. The decision to change DOES happen instantly, but it takes time to filter out the bad and replace with the good. I call it "Positive Repetition." Every thought needs to be held captive (yes, that’s even stated in the Bible). Out with the old, in with the new. Once you say, "I can't", or "This sucks", or "This will never work", guess what? You're right!! Don't even talk negative about other people. Negative thoughts should not even be a part of your mindset. It isn't rocket science. This isn't a concept that was just thought of this morning.
When things don't go as expected, don't dwell on it. When the car gets wrecked unexpectedly, don't get all jacked out of shape. When a plan doesn't quite work out the way you had planned, don't get frustrated and quit. Think positive! "Let's get it fixed," should be your first thought. Don't focus on the problem. Focus on the future or the positive.
People who ask about the network marketing opportunity involved in often come out stating, "I've joined this stuff before and I didn't see anything happen. What's going to be different?" NOTHING! With that kind of mindset and a negative attitude, nothing will be different. You need to work and get positive. It's not the program that didn't work; it's YOU that didn't work. You didn't work mentally or physically. Positive thinking begets positive actions which begets positive results.
Everybody has issues that come across their daily paths. How you react will determine whether you fail or succeed. If you're positive, there are no frustrations and life is much easier to deal with.
Make a conscious decision to change your mind and make a difference. It all begins within. Take action now to change your mindset from negative to positive and the results will be different.
