Nick Vujicic, Helen Keller, Thomas Edison and D. Gary Young were people who overcame extraordinary obstacles to live lives most only dream of. Nick, born without arms and legs, Helen, born deaf and blind, Thomas Edison born a genius but labeled stupid, didn't talk until 4 years old and didn't read til 7. Gary, at 24 had a near fatal logging accident that left him in a wheelchair for 13 years. These folks are ordinary people that wanted more out of life. They wanted Extraordinary lives for themselves but also for others. They fought through negative thinking (theirs and others), negative mindset, making over their belief system that would take them to the top. They drew a mind picture, a vision focusing on the end results and putting themselves there.
I don't know about you but, my childhood was anything but normal. My early home life was unstable and a mess of disfunction. When I was just four me and six of my siblings were put into a children's home, Eastern Star Villa, where i'd spend the next seven years. I won't go into a lot of detail but suffice to say a negative belief system about self image set in along with insecurities galore. Abandonment issues, starved of love and affection put me on a life long course of having to overcome my own Inner obstacles or Mindset. What is mindset? The established set of attitudes held by someone.

No matter where my feelings of worthlessness came from, as I grew older my own inner dialog of "I can't", I'm not deserving", "He/she/they/nobody likes me", "no one cares about me", they will just leave me anyway" stopped me from reaching out for the life I wanted. Do any of you carry these same negative thoughts? Are they hindering you from your true self?
I know I have greatness within me to accomplish what I want. I know you have greatness too. But, our Mindset toys with our achieving our best and our dreams. Inner childhood voices, our mindset, must be radically rewired if we are to achieve our potential. Do you sometimes react very strongly to things and don't know why? Even surprising yourself at your reaction? Are you angry without real cause? Do you have unexplained fears?
It has little to do with the situation and everything to do with a mindset that was created between ages 1-6. The way you were spoke to as a child, the example of parents, guardians, supervisors and teachers, how those of authority in your life dealt with everyday problems and stresses, these are the ones that contributed to your core belief system, your mindset, that would carry you through life, UNLESS of course, you change it.
Take time to think about it. Could your Mindset use tweaking? Write down a few areas where you would like to see changes in your thinking. I'll pass on some tips that I learn from some of the greats that will help you get rid of some of your negativity by replacing it by practice a positive approach.
Until then, happy hump day. Enjoy the rest of your week.

Anyone in Network Marketing eventually MUST come to terms that to make it in this business You will have to do some real soul searching, demand personal development of yourself and Dream Big. If not, you WILL give up. Truly, its that way for all who have a dream and follow it. You can be a good football player or a lawyer. but that does not take you to the end result of Olympian or President. It's the same of someone who starts their own business as a network marketer. You may get a few friends and family to buy your products but, to become a Network Marketing Professional, building a business of financial freedom, you NEED commitment, persistence, practice, education and especially a solid belief system to get you there.
We all have hopes and dreams of a better job, better life, better relationships yet, the majority find them selves in dull non challenging jobs, living a life where lives are full but, love, joy and enjoyment for life are lack luster. We settle for friends and relationships that do not enhance our lives, nor do they help us reach for our full potential. Sometimes they even tear us down and nip away at us when we do begin bettering ourselves. Why?
Why, do we settle, loose sight of our dreams and are okay with not becoming all we are meant to be. Everyone has unlimited God given potential to reach the moon. We are meant to be happy, full of life, intelligent beyond our wildest dreams. We are meant to dream, set goals and a plan on how to reach those goals to attain the dream.Yet, as we grow older the majority of us quit pursuing our dreams?
While most settle for what life hands them, what keeps others committed to their dream, like Nick Vujicic who with no legs or hands has become a world renown motivational speaker who made it his aim to climbed Mt. Kilimenjaro? What drives someone like Helen Keller to become a sought after teacher and international speaker though deaf and blind? Or Thomas Edison despite being called crazy, stupid and "failing" hundreds of times, persist until his dream of light was won. And what about D.Gary Young's relentless pursuit and education of essential oils, finding what he terms "the missing link", between modern medicine and nature. Growing one small farm into the World leader of essential oils. All these people have one thing in common.They had a Dream that they wouldn't let go of.
They all had tremendous obstacles in life to overcome. They had the harsh realities of negative people, callous words of of bullies, ney-sayers and their own inner voices and belief system. Yet, they had a desire to overcome, keep reaching for, got knocked but kept getting up, each time with a greater determination of going after their Dream.
What keeps them so focused? What keeps them setting goals, even when they fail. What is it that drives them to follow dream after dream after dream?
Mindset. Though many failures they never lost sight of their vision. Learn how you too, can resurrect your dreams or create new ones and go after them with vigor. Become a Network Marketing Pro. Create the life you want. Live the life you love. Let each rock you have to overcome become a stepping stone to success.
