Just what I needed to hear today Bob. I am working towards building a large base of retail customers and it is not going as fast as I would like. I have resolved to simply keep trucking forward. I have a plan in place and I am going to keep doing the basics until my objective is achieved.

I have signed up for your emails and look forward to the information.

That was very inspiring, Bob! It’s just the kind of thing I need on days when it feels like I’m walking uphill with my shoelaces tied together!

I’ve been writing about success lately, too, and we have one thing in common: we are both big believers in the ATTITUDE. one of the hardest things to deal with is people who are always negative – they can’t/shouldn’t/won’t be able to/don’t know how… of course if you think like that, you are going to be right. You must keep moving and expect that you will get somewhere when you do.

Obstacles are only obstacles if you let them stop you. Otherwise they’re just opportunities to learn to trip and fall (and get back up of course!)

Thanks for sharing your words of wisdom!

Hi Bob,

Great post.

Your message reminds me of my latest post, and one of my hardest struggles for years. I have been working at a public university for the past 10 years (and at another public university before that), and the transition to becoming a business owner has really been an exciting adventure.

My business is only 40 days old, but I have learned so much, and what I have learned most about is myself and the mindset. I have been reading a lot in books by Anthony Robbins in order to help me change focus and become more confident. But I had no idea that the world outside the University was like this

And I think they teach a class in network marketing at disney. smile It is about staying positive and continuing to work and learn each day. and luckily for me I have a few really good friends who are always reminding me how special i am and how i will eventually overcome the knockers and the neyseyers. I subscribed right away because I would hate to miss anything. take care, max

Hi Bob,

Very, very good post. Asking for the right answer before going to sleep does work, doesn’t it?

Of course, mindset is EVERYTHING. As a matter or fact, without the right mindset there is nothing one can really achieve. And I would even go further by saying that no one should waste their time and money joining money making ventures without having FIRST work on their mind and attitude.

Thanks for this Bob

I bet that’s going to be a great series Bob and your list is in for a real treat.

Mindset is definitely the first thing everyone has to work on because you’ll hit so many walls it’s not even funny. Even the smartest people in the world will have obstacles they’ll have to get over so how you handle things and how you think about them is what’s going to get you through.

I’m one of the most positive people and this industry took me by surprise. I doubted myself a lot because a lot of this was foreign to me. Learn more about yourself and how to handle things when they’re thrown at you and it will be the best decision you ever made.

Looking forward to what you’ll be sharing next Bob.

Bob,

Right on the money…mindset is KEY! Like you said we’ve all heard this a million times but it’s so true. I was on a call last night where the speaker shared a powerful turning point in his business. The biggest one was where he “moved in certainty” He started to do everything in his business with a new level of clarity instead of coming from a place of hope or maybe.

I love the idea and passion around your 30 day process and will be watching it unfold. I know you will probably hits goals and marks that you had not intended to. This is due to your serving leadership. I’m looking forward to reading the next episode!

No one will deny the importance of self-believing. There are still a lot of people who place their trust only in destiny, like in love, they believe in destiny. How can success find them if the only thing they are waiting for is just luck?!

Bob,

My best ideas come from Digg.com, EzineArticles.com, and Delicious because I can scan headlines really fast from those sources and I can see which ones were most popular. This allows me to come up with content fast and to see what people want to hear about.

Great post!

Bob, so many people spend so much time making excuses for there failure they end up digging them selves deeper into failure.

I have seen many people go from worse to worse in my seven years in the industry.

STOP making excuses and start taking action, perfection is not mandatory action is.
