I’d like to talk about motivation and how to get out of that “down in the dumps” feeling we all get once in a while. And how it can severely reduce your level of financial success. Let’s first look at some of the causes and solutions.
1. Lack of Exercise
2. Negative News
3. Negative People
1. This is a big one. It has been proven that a very small amount of exercise can relieve depression. Online marketing and depression just doesn’t mix. When you are feeling down and sitting there in front of your computer thinking about placing an ad or answering an email from an excited client and you are tired and depressed, how are you going to proceed and succeed? The way you feel will show through the email you send. IF you send it at all. Then your lack of action causes you to lose the sale, then you get more depressed, hence a vicious downward spiral.
Don’t feel like placing an ad today? Feeling a little anxiety?
It’s amazing how just doing a few pushups or situps once in a while can inject you with just enough motivation to take action.
2. Negative news is a big problem today. Mainstream news is focused on the negative. Why? Because that’s what people want to see. So they simply give the viewers (customers) what they want. Sad huh? What does that say about the flawed nature of the human race. It’s natural to crave negativity but that doesn’t mean it’s something you should subject yourself to every day. The average person is a follower (average wage slave) but it’s your job to be a leader (successful business owner). There is about 100 times more good news than bad news out there but we just don’t hear about it because the mainstream news networks don’t cover it.
Instead of watching the bad news every night, read a motivational book or audio seminar. For those of you that don’t like to read there are plenty of video seminars available. You’ll be motivated and a lot less depressed.
3. Negative people are a dime a dozen. 90% of the people you’ll meet are negative (average wage slave). The 90% follow the rules and the top 10% make the rules. So you must force yourself to listen to the rare 10% that are the unusual, wealthy and successful or you’ll just end up being another wage slave that complains about pretty mucheverything. So if you know people that bring you down by telling you the latest gossip about what Sally did to Jim or what terrible things Bob said to Frank last night, stop them right there and tell them that you are serious about becoming successful and you don’t want to hear it anymore. Your friend will be stunned and may not talk to you anymore but so what. That means that you are on your way to getting the negative people out of your life for good.
What’s better? Having 10 friends that bring you down by gossiping or complaining or having a couple key friends that inspire you to succeed?
All the best.
To your success,
