If You Think You Can't, You're Right!

If You Think You Can't, You're Right!

Your thoughts have far more control over your circumstances than you realize. The fact is, you can learn to control your thoughts and, in the process, control your business. Or, you can continue to allow your thoughts to control your circumstances and watch your business go down the drain.

On the surface, this may not seem to have much to do with building wealth through your home business, but there is a big connection between your thoughts and your success (or lack thereof!). The mind is a funny thing. We have this continual monologue going on inside of our brains. It never stops. Have you ever started reading something and 15 minutes later found yourself thinking about something totally unrelated to what you were reading and wondered how on earth you got there? Have you ever followed that trail back to the beginning and discovered all of the twists and turns that got you to the end destination?

Depending on which source you believe,the average person has anywhere from 12,000 to 50,000 thoughts per day. Most of these are the same old thoughts we were programmed to think from our childhood. Things we heard our family and peers say remain trapped in our brain on an endless loop. Some of my personal childhood tapes were, "the rich get richer, and the poor get poorer." "Big business has all the money and the little man will never get anywhere." "The way to make money is to go to school, get good grades, and get a steady job." Of course, from time to time, there were the other thoughts that got programmed in there like "you're not good enough," or "you'll never amount to anything."

If you truly paid attention to your thoughts, you'd probably be amazed to discover how many negative thoughts you have every day. What is worse is that these thoughts are usually playing on an endless loop through our mind just below the conscious level, so we don't even realize we are sabotaging ourselves. You see, the problem with thoughts is, they seem to be too small to really matter. Besides, they are internal, and no one else knows what we're thinking, right?

Well, have you ever said something, maybe even under your breath, and wondered where that came from? There's a saying:


"Watch your thoughts; they become words.
Watch your words; they become actions.
Watch your actions; they become habits.
Watch your habits; they become character.
Watch your character; it becomes your destiny."

You will be bombarded with plenty of people -- often your family and your friends -- who will tell you that you'll never succeed at your home-based network marketing business. Many of them will tell you from their own experience that it's impossible to succeed! This is one of the reasons I don't agree with the traditional method of recruiting people in MLM. The very people you love the most, and who love you, will likely have the most negative attitude toward your new-found opportunity. If you aren't careful, you'll adopt these thoughts as your own, and find your enthusiasm drop at an alarming rate. You'll need to guard your thoughts, and be sure to counteract any negative ones with positive ones. One of the best ways to do this is to listen to and read about the success of others.

Today, spend some time watching your thoughts -- especially when you are thinking about, or working on, your business. In fact, it wouldn't hurt to put up little post-it notes or index cards with positive affirmations where you can see them first thing in the morning and throughout the day. Your friends, family and co-workers may think you are a little strange at first, but you will be able to have the last laugh when you begin to see positive changes take place in your life.

Change your life by changing your thoughts. Begin today.
