Here is where it all begins…

 I feel like waxing philosophical here for a minute… You know what that means!

It is time for another Mind Hack!

Where exactly does success come from? How does one find it and what exactly does it mean? If you have been struggling for a long time with building a business online or even just making a few hundred dollars extra every month, have you ever asked yourself why?

It is way to easy to blame the “programs” or “marketing systems” out there, call anything which does not produce for us quickly a scam etc. Have you ever done this? I certainly have back when I did not yet understand where my true power to succeed would come from.

Yes, there are scams out there that will take your money and run but it is not difficult to shield yourself from these. All a scam company does is prey on the desires that are already within us. They don’t attach themselves to anything new. Those who utilize unscrupulous marketing tactics know that many people will only come looking for help online when they are in dire need of it, or come looking for ways to increase income when they are already strapped with massive debt and don’t see a way out.

In a situation like this it is easy to fall victim to “bad business” and to believe the hype standing before you. The simple fact is that you want it to be true when you read things like, “Make $50,000 per Month Easily” or “Make Money - Do Nothing”, and the list goes on and on with more impossible promises coming everyday.

It is easy to “believe” something far-fetched, especially if we really WANT it to be true. The mind can play tricks on us, but that does not mean we should be wary of our own thinking. In fact, it shows that the mind, what we think is really where the true power lies.

So, even if you do start a business with a reputable company what is it that is keeping you from your dreams?  Why does everything seem so hard for you and so easy for others?

Hey, I am not attacking you directly, but I know for a fact that this is a feeling that the majority of people have who call me or email me with their questions about it building a business online.

I am speaking to those people right now. I have the answer to this question and it has nothing to do with learning secret marketing techniques or anything like that.  The problem is in your thinking.  It is quite possible that you are thinking too small.

Here is what I want you to think about right now. If someone who you know is earning five times more than you are online with their business, chances are it is because they are thinking  five times bigger than you. That is it, plain and simple.

You need to start thinking bigger, and this involves not only recognizing that everything CAN be yours, but also that no one is out to get you or cause you to fail.  The only wall that stands between you and the success you seek is YOU.  Unfortunately some people have built HUGE walls and they need to spend more time bringing them down.

Now, don’t get BIG thinking confused with wishful thinking either. It is wishful thinking and hoping something will be true that gets people into the financial trouble so often experienced online. If you have never even made $1000 in one month, how do you expect to make $50,000?

I don’t care what the website says…there is no website or magical marketing system that will make $50,000 for you in one month if you cannot even conceive it. BIG thinking is not just adding more zeroes to your income possibilities.

BIG thinking is simply learning to focus more on what you want instead of on what you don’t want. Let me say that again….

BIG thinking is merely focusing on what you want. Small thinking is focusing on what you don’t want.

If you are always imagining and picturing in your mind situations you would not want to experience, you are automatically shrinking your mind and your life. What you think about you will bring about.

The power of our minds and what we can do with them is not some fairy tale. It is a power that has been known about for ages by many great men and women of history. Their practice and perfection of mental techniques is what made them great. They were not born great.

So, if you think about what it is you DO want you are adding to your situation and increasing your life. You may not have the things you wish to acquire yet, but thinking about them is what creates the space for these things to come into your life.

Thinking about what you don’t want certainly will not create the space to receive anything accept what you already have. It goes much deeper than this, but in essence, you have a choice every day and every second of your life.  You can think BIG or small. 

You can focus your mind and intention on the wonder and beauty of life, the things you want to experience, or you can focus on the small things of life, that which you do not wish to experience.

It is YOUR choice and no one can ever take that from you.

Over the next several weeks our Sunday Coffee talks will begin to unravel this mystery of the mind and how you can use it to guide you in all areas. Whatever you want can be yours, and all it ever takes is the smallest of mental shifts. It is not as hard as it may seem. 

It is actually fun as you slowly and methodically begin to replace old ways of thinking with new and fresh intentions. Your life will never be the same.  With time you will be echoing the mighty words of Emerson…

“Great men are those who see that thoughts rule the world.”
Until next time….

    Good thoughts. So, I clicked on this link on Google while searching for an “honest” review of $200 per day Marketing. What I found are some very profound thoughts and statements relating to one’s frame of mind when trying to find success.

    Have you actually tried the $200 a day system? If so, are you one of those affiliates who will write an “honest” review of their services (really only hoping to make a sale)?

    I ask this only because I am new to IM and am starting to recognize some of the tactics used in attracting potential “suckers”.

    Please don’t take this message as a personal attack or cynical rant. I am merely trying to find some honest answers about how to REALLY make it online.

    I already have a job that pays well, so I don’t NEED to make money online. I am interested because I have been a writer for most of my life, and I think it would be great to create and build up a secondary income stream.

    I have a great work ehtic, and writing and researching for 1-3 even 5 hours a day is no problem for me.

    I am already a member of an Affiliate marketing site that lays claim to some of the same things as $200 a day. There is SO much info there, but not the step-by-step hand-holding that a newbie requires.

    Anyway, I would love to chat with you more on this. Please email me.

    Thanks,

    Joel

    Hey Joel,

    Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate them!

    In answer to your question of whether I have tried the $200 Blueprint or not, the answer is yes. :-) I also can give you an extremely honest review of it but not an un-biased review.
    I am the creator of $200 Blueprint and thus extremely biased from the get-go.

    As a new IM’er starting out, I understand the information overload situation as well as having every piece of the puzzle thrown at you all at once, with no direction on how to put the pieces together.

    There are tons of ways to start a business online and if you do it right there really is no ceiling at all to what you can create and earn from.

    I will send you an email and maybe we can talk. It may turn out that $200 Blueprint is not the best fit for you.

    Again, thanks for your comments and we will talk soon.

    Adam

    Really good post. Read The Power Of Positive Thinking a long time and its message and yours is really true. A quote that has stuck with me is “Change your thoughts, change your world”. Thanks for sharing.
