Attention Entrepreneurs!
Anything which gets in the way of your goal constitutes a distraction. Medical school is an extremely worthwhile and valuable activity, but not unless you are choosing a career in the medical profession. If your goal is to become a network marketer, medical school is a distraction.
Focus on your goals. Focus on your strengths. Regain perspective in your life.
Look seriously at your perspective on your life and your business. Today’s activities determine tomorrow’s success. Your greatest moment, your greatest achievement, your greatest adventure can be and should be in the future. The future is within your control. The past by the very nature of it being the past can not be changed. The new you strains to be created. New potential, new achievement and new experiences await you. Each new dawn brings wonder and joy. The future hold excitement if you allow it.
Yesterday remains a memory. Learn from it, yes, but leave it behind you. Look ahead to what you can be tomorrow. Where are you going with your life?
There was a passage in “The Noticer” by Andy Andrews about two men sitting on the beach eating. When asked what he was eating, one man answered, “Vienna sausages and sardines.” When asked where he was eating, he replied, “I’m sitting in the sand.” “Ah,” his companion replied, “it is all in your perspective. I am dining on surf and turf with an ocean view.” Perspective makes all the difference.
What perspective governs your life? Are you grateful for the blessings, advantages and talents you possess or grumbling about the challenges you face?
Life hands each and every one of us opportunities every day. How we choose to view those opportunities determines the difference between the successful and the failures. Viewing a new business striving for success can be frustration and stress or excitement about the potential. Check your perspective.
I’ve been to many hospitals and each time I hear the new baby pronounced as a boy or a girl. Never have I heard a new baby pronounced as an entrepreneur. Being an entrepreneur is a learned skill. Yes, there are some of us who are psychologically unemployable. We have that intense inner burning desire to create and take control of our income and our future. We are the leaders. We are the risk takers.
An entrepreneur has a different perspective on life. We take charge. We take action. Our perspective is that life is fun. Life and business are challenges to be internalized. We dine on surf and turf with an ocean view. We see the potential in every opportunity.
Entrepreneurs have an excited perspective on life and business.
You are extraordinary. Touch base with your perspective in every situation. Never allow yourself to feel inadequate. One of the problems of living in the greatest nation in the world is that our perspective of entitlement gets skewed. We take our advantages for granted. Because our entire experience has been in a nation of abundance, regardless of our personal circumstances, we have more freedom and potential here than any other nation in the world. Our perspective gets tainted. We expect good opportunities to flow to us in such abundance that we do not always dig deep in our being to discover our own talents and strengths.
Dine on surf and turf with an ocean view. Use a positive perspective in every aspect of your life. Tap into your passion. Discover your talents and strengths.
Depending on your perspective, life can be a thrilling adventure or drudgery. You choose. Opportunity is a choice. Entrepreneurialism is a choice. Your perspective is a choice.

Emotional Detachment
Clinging to a lead or chasing a prospect gives an impression of lack and being needy. Needy is one of the fastest turn offs for a prospect. It tells them you are coming from a weak position. People prefer to work with a leader. Leaders present themselves from the standpoint of abundance.
Yes, that is more difficult when you only have a handful of leads and you feel you have paid dearly for each one. You desperately want each of those leads to convert into a sale. I get that. Problem is, so does the prospect. They feel your vibration. They feel your urgency to make a sale. Do whatever you have to do to feel abundant. If you have to look at the New York white pages and see all of the names in order to feel abundant, do it. I’m not suggesting you start cold calling from the phone book, but I am emphasizing that you must develop a feeling of lead abundance within yourself. Project that feeling in your relaxed confidence as you speak with leads.
There is the story of the new Cosmetic surgeon who did not have a single booking on his surgery schedule. A lady called wanting a face lift. He forced himself to say, “Just a moment, let me check the schedule to see when I can schedule your appointment.” He put the phone on hold and counted to 50. Counting to 50 was all the time he could stand to wait. He then returned to the called and said he could fit her in a week from Tuesday at 3 pm. He booked the appointment. If he had asked her, “What time would you like to come in, my schedule is open?” I will bet that he would NOT have booked the appointment.
Even if you have to bite you lip to keep from sounding overly eager, do it.
Mother eagle told baby eagle, “Come soar with me. You will be so good at flying. You were made to soar through the sky.” Baby eagle says, “I’m scared. I don’t know if I can do it. What if I fall?” Mother eagle responds, “What is more important to you, the thrill of soaring or the fear of falling?”
It is so easy to become so paralyzed by the fear of failure that we lose sight of the utter thrill of victory. Let go of the attachment to the status quo. Let go of the attachment to the known. Let go of that precious lead and know that many more are flowing in every day. The more you relax and free yourself of the emotional attachment to the current, the more you open yourself to the potential of the future.
You can not steal second base with your foot firmly planted on first. You must first exercise detachment from the known in order to reach for the potential of the future. Relax and visualize the abundance of leads in your inbox. Feel the calm confidence of plenty. Put yourself in that frame of mind before, during and after your conversation with leads and your bank account will thank you.
Visualize how a 100,000 per month producer would act and feel. They would demonstrate total emotional detachment from each individual lead.
Develop the mindset of:
Some Will
Some Won’t
Someone’s Waiting
Emotional detachment frees you from stress and frees the lead to take positive action with you.
