Jobs and CareersWhat's Holding You Back From Success?
By Vicki Ramirez
When I first started my internet marketing business I was excited with a capital E. I couldn't wait to get started, it was like a first date with the guy you've had a crush on for a year! I checked the mail everyday for three days until finally the package came. I ripped it open and followed every instruction to the T! That's how I am, I give it my all, I live, eat and breath what I'm focused on until... something happens that I 'think' I can't get through and then many times that's when I quit. I was thinking about this the other day and I was wondering why that is. Why is it that when you first start something that you've wanted for so long, you quit? These are the main three reasons that I figured out that really can make a huge difference in how far you take your dreams.
The first one... The FEAR Factor... This is a big one. When I got my instructions and I started to advertise my new business and I started to spend money, that old monkey on my back, FEAR, took over. I had all of these failure questions free falling through my brain like 'Will I ever earn all of this money back? Will I fail miserably? Will my friends and family make fun of me? These are all BIG questions that you have to sit down and really think through. What is the worst that could happen? The worst thing that could happen is that you QUIT! Because if you quit, then you really do lose all of your money! If you quit, then yes, you will fail miserably. But thankfully, if you quit your friends and family will be there to support you, well maybe...
The second reason that keeps you from living the dream life is you don't think you have the support that you need, you don't think you have someone that believes in you even when you don't believe in yourself. That was my biggest obstacle and my biggest excuse for not getting to where I wanted to be. I was so mad at the person that was supposed to be helping me that I wrote about him in my blog and told others not to join with him. What I realized later is that it's up to me to find my support. It doesn't have to be the one that helped you start your business...maybe you two are totally different personality wise. When I finally realized that it was up to me, I went on a Fox Hunt. I was searching for a successful person that I could resonate with, that could believe in me, be my mentor and my 'Rich Dad'. It wasn't that hard to find someone. I sent out a lot of emails, I talked to a few and got NO response from some but hey, that's ok. I got what I was looking for. Now, I'm not saying that you go out and find someone that is going to hold your hand because that's not what a mentor is. This business is yours and yours alone and you should take responsibility for your success or your failure. But your mentor can help you with questions, steer you in the right direction when you've veered off a little and he can remind you of your dreams and support you when you're carrying that monkey on your shoulder.
The third and the biggest challenge that impedes your success is YOURSELF! How many times have you looked at that millionaire and thought. "Wow, I'd really like to live that life and be exactly like him". You dream and you imagine yourself there in that island hut in the middle of the Caribbean living the life of your dreams! Crash! Here comes that monkey again! He starts talking to you telling you that you'll never amount to anything, it's impossible for you to be that Rich, you'll never be able to run a business that large, and then you start to say, "I can't, I can't, I don't know how, I'm not good enough, I don't have enough experience, I don't have enough money."
The list goes on and on because when we dream about a better life, it creates a new path in our brain and it's scary. It's sooo much easier to stay in that rut, trading hours for dollars, never getting anywhere, having someone else tell you what to do 8 hours per day, 5 days per week. You don't have to think when you're in the rut, life is on auto-pilot. And for some, that works and that's ok. But for others, like me, they get completely bored with the auto-pilot life. Building a new path is hard! It's scary, it's exciting, and it's uncomfortable. But in order to get what you want, that's what you have to do. GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE! Experience the pulse reaction, squiggle in your chair a bit, question, ponder, and discuss but never, ever quit because that's when you become a failure. You can never succeed if you quit. Keep these things in mind when you're thinking about quitting. It's all about you. Remind yourself of your dreams and remind yourself why you want them, why you chose the path that you're on and especially, go visit that place in the future where you've already achieved it. Because what your mind can imagine, can ALWAYS come true. It's only when you stop dreaming that you stay in that rut.
Sweet Dreams!

Success Strategy - 4 Ways to Set Yourself Up For Success
By Hugues Nkamwa
Success is a strategy, not a random act. Behind all the events of your life is a power that is controlled by you.
Success is strategy. Do not think all is lost in your life when times are hard or challenging.
Nothing is lost in nature. The circumstances of your life are the raw materials of the success you intend to manufacture.
The pain of failure is skin deep. You can rise again to higher heights. Here are 4 tips to help you set yourself up for success:
1. Have a destination.
You have to know where you are heading in order to arrive there. Success is a journey. Your strategy is the direction of your journey. Set your goals and resolve in your heart to achieve them. You are capable of so much more than you are now experiencing.
2. Discipline.
Structure your efforts so that they are in harmony with your goals. Seek only to do that which is going to get you to where you are going. Establish the order that is necessary to accomplish the desires of your heart.
3. Let go to life.
Do your part and let life do it's part. You only have one mind. Concentrate on doing that which has to be done and do it. Do not judge your efforts. Your results will speak for themselves. They do not need you. All that is required is to do the things that need to be done by you.
4. Affirm your success.
Be grateful for your life. You are now in the hands of the mighty power of the universe.You have been given the power to decide the experiences that you want out your life. Affirm what you want out of this life. You affirm by being positive and hopeful. You live with the power of positive expectation. Expect nothing but that which you have desired.
Stop once and for all to think that someone else is responsible for your life. That is not true and can never be true. You are a life force in the grand scheme of the universe. You have the power to choose the direction you want in your life.
You can become a success machine if you choose to. Your effort is what matters when the pedal hits the metal. Drive your life to the success you deserve. Know yourself and succeed.
