Mind-set is one of the most Important Aspects to Being Successful

If you read one article about mind-set, READ THIS ONE...

As we grow up, our minds are programed with a lot of misconceived ideas. Some of these ideas come from people we love and trust and some of it comes from living your everyday life. These ideas get deeply rooted in our self-conscious minds.

These negative ideas form a conversation in your mind that tells you things like:

I’m not smart enough.

That will never work.

I’ll never be able to do that.

Studies show that 92% of people never see their dreams come true because of the negativity instilled in their subconscious…that small voice that keeps telling you “I Can’t”.

Mind-set is one of the most important aspects to being successful. I’m writing this post because of the difference in mind-set I had. Which was, “I’m going to be successful no matter what. Changing my mind-set has also made me a better person. After giving my life to JESUS CHRIST our LORD AND SAVIOR, I’m no longer the selfish person who thought the world revolves around me. I don’t know how your faith is but mine has done wonders for me.

Getting back to the subject at hand…if you want to become successful at anything, which is affiliate marketing for us…you have to first have to learn to consciously master your mind-set.

The first thing you need to ask yourself when changing your mind-set is…

How do you know you need a change in your mind-set?

Some of you might not need a change in this area. You might have been born with a self-esteem that’s going through the roof. If you fall in that category, GOD BLESS YOU. If you don’t know if you need a change of not, here are a couple of questions you could ask yourself.

1 Do you always feel like you’re the victim?

2 Do you always look at the glass half empty?

3 Do you harp on your failures (successful people don’t)

4 Do you never face the truth?

5 Do you always make excuses?

6 Do you listen to what other people say?

If your answer is yes to one or more of these questions, you need to improve you mind-set.

There are a number of ways you can improve your mind-set and we’re going to talk about them in this post, but first we need to see the difference between the two basic mind-sets.

The two mind-sets fall into two categories: The Fixed Mind-set and The Growth Mind-set.

Fixed Mind-Set: Believes that certain qualities are inborn, fixed and unchangeable.

Broth Mind-Set: Believes thatabilities can be developed and nutured by way of commitment and hard work.

The purpose of this post is focused on The Growth Mind-Set. A Growth Mind-Set will…

Develope a healthy self-esteem in you: Ever been told you wouldn’t amount to much?

Develope a thick skin: I critical when facing challenges and naysayers.

Because what you believe about yourself can impact your success or failure.

By the time you finish reading this post you should be in the mind-set of I CAN not I CAN’T. And here’s where going to show you…

How to Change Your Mind-Set

1 Count Your Blessings: No matter where you are in life, there is always someone who would love to trade places with you.

Just ask a homeless person would they trade places with you.

Ask a terminally ill rich person with three months to live would they trade places with you.

Or ask that person who never had a family because they were passed from one foster care to another because of parents who suffered from substance abuse.

2 Look to be Fulfilled Not Happy: The Bible says you’ll find joy in the LORD…not that you’ll be happy. Even psychologist have found that happiness does not come from getting what you want but is the by-product of the challenges you’ve overcome and the milestones you’ve reached

3 Understand the Why: Formed bad habits aren’t easy to break. Understanding where these bad habits come from and why you think the way you do will be the first step to changing them.

4 Realize that Motivation and Willpower is not enough: Motivation is hard to maintain and that’s when willpower comes in. Willpower is like running a long distance…at first you have plenty of breath, but the longer you run the more breath you begin to run out of. Eventually your tank runs out and you have to sit down and rest. Start small in order to finish BIG. This will help keep you in the right mind-set because small achievable goals will keep you motivated along with inching your way to your bigger goals. For instance…

If you want to start an exercise regement, you’ll most likely stick with it it you start with 10 to 15 minutes a day than if you tried 1 or 2 hours to begin with.

I’m you want to build muscles and have never lifted weights before, you wouldn’t start with 1 or 2 hundred pounds…you’d quit after the first day… you would start off with 10, 20 or 30 pounds.

5 Seek Positive Friends: A negative social surrounding programs your subconscious in a negative way. By that I mean, if you consistently here negative messages from you family or friends, even if you don’t believe it, your subconscious will pick it up and the first time you face a challenge (and you will) that small voice will tell you YOU CAN’T, YOU CAN’T, YOU CAN’T. Surround yourself with positive people like yourself to help drown out the negative messages coming at you.

When I here someone telling me I’ll never be successful, I just quote a Bible scripture invested in my head which says, “I Can Do All Things Through CHRIST Who Strengthens Me”. This leads me to the next advice which is…

6 Consume Yourself Through Positive Media: We’re going through a crisis right now with the corona virus and the protest for racial equality. It’s alright to listen to the news but don’t let yourself be consumed by it. I do believe you have to stand for something or you’ll fall for anything but always focus on the goals you want to achieve. GOD put us on this earth to be a Blessing to others. You can be more of a blessing by achieving your goals. Join forums of like minded people like yourself, go on sites that encourage you, consume positive massages you see on television…consume it get it in your subconscious and keep it there.

7 Write Out Your Action Plan: Map out your goals and form a plan to get you there. Make sure you learn and do something new everyday to getting you to your destination. Remember Rome wasn’t built in a day….small steps will eventually turn into large ones. And finally…

8 Do Two or Three Minutes of Meditation in the Morning: For me, I start my day by thanking GOD for all the BLESSINGS he’s given my and the thanks in faith that HE’S going to give me. Your meditation might be different… But always meditate on the positive. Before you meditate take a few moments to breath in. Take long drawn- in breathing relax your mind and try to clear it from all the outside forces. Empty it, try and think of nothing but the goodness of GOD…then thank him and begin your daily schedule.

Conclusion

Improving your mind-set can help you control your future. Giving you a healthy self-esteem which will enable you to face the many challenges that come with starting and running your online business.

You want to focus on a Growth Mind-set that will make you more of a believer in yourself. And meditate always thanking GOD for your BLESSINGS, you’ll be on your way to creating a successful life and business that you could be proud of.

As always, thanks for your time, keep up the faith and pray for this country and the rest of the world.

I started this blog because I believe we're in an economic environment that is only going to reward those who have their own (business). My passion is to help as many as I can to be successful as an online entrepreneur. As you may know, you can't count on the government to secure your financial future, so you must rely on yourself on yourself. I came to this conclusion because I was a victim of this up and down economy and I'm pulling myself out of my misfortune by starting my own online business and I want to carry as many poeple like myself along by helping THEM succeed.
