Unrealistic thought here? Not so, for failures teach more than successes ever has and should not end your life of trying and experimenting. The thought that obstacles will not occur in life or business is an unreal thought! "How can you handle obstacles?" You yourself will usually be the real obstacle in this equation. Altruism is "Thoughts are things!" Well if you think you are not able to do something, you certainly can rest assured you won't! But by the same token, if you think you can you most certainly will, obstacles or not! Special bonuses usually arise to he/she that acts quickly and without worry knowing that obstacles, when they arise, will be overcome by his/her own power and perseverance. Want bonuses in life or never have a fulfilled life? It's your call! If you are reading this the thought of success in business or your personal life has and does occur to you. Right! Are you ready to make a commitment to yourself and success? A commitment is something you do not back out on just because the going gets rough and bumps occur in your path. Growing up with parents who had no positive or constructive goals nor reached for things outside their world of friends, was a positive in my life. How? That world was a very small perimeter to them… My, father the dreamer, had such potential but was so set in his own ideas that he would not seek nor listen to advice as he thought he knew everything, thereby dooming him to a life of unsuccessful attempts. Since none of his friends claimed successful lives in the world of business or industry he had no knowledge of such nor hope of finding a mentor. Probably would not have listened to one anyway. My parents could not teach me the needed success principals, as they had never learned them. So the first rule While watching their lives I learned my need to go outside our parameters and find a circle of creative, supportive, goal oriented positive people with dreams and people who were not afraid of challenges or failures. Also the necessity to find a mentor or mentors to show me the way out of my limitations, since you simply cannot find a way to something you know nothing about. This caused great conflict between my family and I as they did not understand my drive and/or path!. I watched everyone I knew and admired those with successful lives, thereby I learned by others' successes and drives. Watching then gave me the empowerment to do whatever I chose to do. I continue to live that way, helping others as they ask. My 64 years of life has been a learning experience every day I shall never stop learning and hopefully neither shall you! To stop learning is to curl up and die… We can be our own worst enemy! Usually because we fail to open our eyes to possibilities lying in our path. Opportunity may appear at any moment, if we are looking! If we aren't open to them and looking we may never know it was there, missing a great opportunity! I have not always been able to rise above negative attitudes, but lucky for me they are only momentary rocks in my path. For the most part am able to ignore those rocks and barbs, that is not to say I don't feel them. Yes I am as human as the next person but I made a decision early on in life and that was to choose not to pay attention to such nonsense. I became a champion at ignoring sarcasm and negative attitudes early on. Not because I'm special but because it isn't constructive to me to accept negatives. No I'm no better than anyone else! It's choices I make and choices you can make if you wish. The courage to act through failures and see beyone will carry you through those times if your passion is strong enough. Yes, passion is a necessity but it isn't everything, although it certainly is the greater need to succeed. But there is that other necessity called persistence. Persistence is the drive to reach your goal(s) that will lead you to success in business, love, family or friends! Applying passion and persistence to find ways around obstacles in you and in others will create ways to overcome your own inertia or resistance to change. It will also serve to teach that you are more powerful than you ever thought you were. One of the first problems to cause you to lose inertia is called, the idea level. Those thoughts or sayings, "I'd love to try that, but" or someday I will do it, "when." I could do it but "Reality is." Those words "BUT," "IF," "REALITY," and "WHEN" are dream killers and will cause you to lose the ability to drive and persistence… The lack of INERTIA is fed by those words… A lot of ideas get stopped right at that level. The ideas that will carry you through are, "WATCH ME GO or "IF HE/SHE CAN DO IT SO CAN I." It is not simply the positive thought. It requires action good ole daily, consistent, persistent, positive steps. Keep your mind focused on what you wish to accomplish. If that is a problem for you let me know. I know a whole lot of positive people that I am willing to share that love to be a mentor or positive influence with answers to business problems you didn't know existed. No, we are not baby sitters nor will we do the work for you, but cheer you on when you hit those times that you can't cheer yourself. Surround yourself with folks who want you to get where you want to be...and do not stop! First take a few minutes today; remember what you most wanted to do when you were young. Have you done it or did the light dim? What would you like to do now? Choose something small and accomplish it. Do it again and again! This will build your confidence for the larger things and then continue to build. Next look back a few years and make a list of your accomplishments. Spend some time celebrating all that you have done, raising a family, getting a degree, choosing supportive friends, kicked that bad habit or whatever... Do not give the negatives another thought! Throw them out! You are successful in many ways but you may need to ask a family member or friend questions that will help you realize your accomplishments that you didn't think of as accomplishments... Now, what is your next success going to be? Will it be continuing to work for someone else who calls the shots or will you use your new found self and grow your own business and you make the calls in your life? If the later is your choice you now have the option of a business that will not fail if, you are willing to work for yourself and choose others with like-mindedness. Get going now and do it. Surround yourself with people that have conquered their inertia, live with passion and are willing to help every person that is willing to put forth the work and effort to be successful. You are on your way. For by helping others get what they want you will get what you want… The logical thing for you to do is know where you stand in terms of passion, persistence, inertia and ability to make choices of positives rather than negatives! Once you have made those analysis and are ready to begin a whole new world for your self go to work and make it a reality in your life… Need help contact me! mailto:lenaenvirodocs.com I have found that people who have failed to make money, online and off, are usually lacking or doing some or all of the following; 1) Those who make the millions of $$ are the ones with insight and ability to focus on positives. Failure is failing to focus on the positives! 2) Associate programs are for the benefit of the person who started that program. Associates make very little from that! 3) Lack of focusing on business will kill it. 4) Jumping from one thing to another has killed more businesses online and created failures off line! 5) Failing to sink the money into purchasing tools that will grow a business. 6) Trying to do business with every freebie that comes online. (The freebie mentality takes many years, if ever, to build a very small profit. Reading the hype from those who say it worked for them is just that, hype!) 7) Inability to recognize abilities and that only he/she has created his/her failure! Failure does not mean failure forever but a step to learning! Now failure does not mean you have failed, most wealthy people have had what you would consider several failures but in actuality were stepping stones and lessons on how to succeed… Now get out there and succeed cause failure is not an option forever, when you keep going! ****** Meet the author Lena Sanchez a retired Medical Office Administrator/Nurse/Consultant author of three health improving books at http://www.envirodocs.com/ books.htm as well as writer of numerous business and health articles bouncing around cyberspace! http://www.envirodocs.com/lenas_bio.htm Editor of "Natural Environmental Health & Business Facts Ezine http://www.envirodocs.com/newsletter.htm How useful did you find this article?
