Relationships Selling| Article #119 :THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING
I apologize in advance if any of this sounds insensitive, but I just have no tolerance for people who say, "I can't"
True story.
I was telling somebody about this opportunity of mine. Their answer to me was, "But I can't write." I asked them if they had ever done it before. Their answer was, "No." I then asked this person how she knew she couldn't write if she had never done it before. Her answer was a pretty vague, "I just know it."
Well, I made this person a deal. I told her I wanted her to try. I told her that if she failed at it, I would personally pay her $20 out of my own pocket, but she had to give it an honest try for at least a month.
Long story short.
She sent me an email recently thanking me for "forcing" her to try this. Now, she can't do it enough and is making a decent income from it. She said she found a talent she didn't know she had. She said she'd send me a testimonial. I never got it but that's okay and not the point of this article.
People who say they can't, when they've never even tried are admitting defeat before they even begin. It's that simple. When I get up in the morning and have a day when I don't make a sale, I look at my stats in disbelief. I'm stunned. There must be a technical problem with the reporting system. I "always" make sales.
If this sounds conceited, good. I want it to. Because 3 years ago I didn't have a pot to spit in. I could have given all the "I cant's" in the world. I certainly had enough reason to. But I didn't. I searched for answers. I demanded answers. I was determined that someday I would make money on the Internet and laugh in the faces of all those who said I would fail.
It may sound like a cliche' but the Power Of Positive Thinking is more powerful than people realize. Today, I have absolutely no doubt that each day will be a profitable day. I have no doubt that I will do something that will make tomorrow or the next day even more profitable.
But don't get me wrong. This isn't simply a matter of sitting back and thinking that great things are going to happen and then suddenly by magic they will. You'll have to work at making them happen and work hard. There will be days when you will want to throw your PC out a window. There will be days when you'll think you'll never see another good one. There will be days when you're certain disaster is just around the corner
And then there will be those days when you will feel like you can do no wrong.
Those are the best days of all
