Tip #24: Winning Is More Than An Attitude
Now, money is tight for the world, I get more and more questions about how did you keep going through adversity?
At first I used to seem baffled by this question. But lots of experience in failure, left me feeling like, this happens to everyone. So – lesson number one, as an entrepreneur, you will fail often. I have experienced way more failures in my life than successes but the one thing that never leaves my brain or heart is the reason for the failure.
As much as I probably should have looked at the failures as a reflection of me, I have never assumed that the failure was all me. I looked at what was going on in the world, and realized that there are always winners and losers. Even in this economy. During the most prosperous time in U.S. History, I was struggling to build my company. Yes, Struggling. So was it hard for me to focus on getting up again. Not really, how I view the economy – is actually directly tied to my bank account.
Right now, I am not experiencing the toughness of the economy. As a matter of fact, most of my personal mastermind group is not experiencing it either.
Who is experiencing it? Those that forgot to work on What Next in their businesses and have been coasting. Selling to “low hanging” fruit. Customers that come to them and never going deep into their list. Those making it focused on building relationships instead of building their second and third dream homes.
Winning is more than an attitude but it starts first with not worrying about the national economy, whether its good or bad. The focus is about your economy. It can change with YOU but only You.
