Allow us to borrow a little story from Zig Ziglar. Imagine that tomorrow morning a person you completely trusted called you and said the following …
“I’ve been meaning to tell you for some time that I’m glad you are my friend. You are a credit to your profession and a real asset to your family and community. People look up to how you live your life and the choices you make. If I could spend an hour a day with you I know my life would be better.“
How would that make you feel?
If you were a teacher or a Mum, Dad or an accountant would you be a better teacher, Mum, Dad or accountant?
Of course, you would!
But would you know more than you knew before about being a teacher, Mum, Dad or accountant?
Not at all.
The truth is this — no one is going to make that call.
So you have to do it yourself.
Are we talking about talking to yourself? Absolutely!
You are the voice you trust most so why not hear some good things from yourself instead of the negative?
You see, motivation (especially self-motivation) and self-worth make us better at anything we try to do.
One of the saddest realities in today’s world is that many people don’t really believe in themselves.
They can see how this person or that person could achieve success. But they can’t see how success will happen for them.
The list of reasons is long...
- I’m too old
- I don’t understand business
- I don’t understand technology
- That business is already saturated
- There is too much competition
- I wouldn’t know how to find customers
- I’m no salesman (or saleswoman)
Don’t get us wrong — there are very real reasons why success might take a bit longer for some than others
But there is no reason why all people can’t succeed online
Did we go through some of these thoughts ourselves?
Of course we did and we even ended up writing our own book on the subject
In fact you can download it with our compliments because we know you will get a lot of value from it
So that's it for today and we'll be back with another key step in our next email..
