I have discovered, after much research in self-development and Life Coaching, 8 similar behaviours between the successful entrepreneurs and those making all the money. If these 8 action steps are followed daily and consecutively - there is no doubt in my mind that success will come your way!
DELVE INTO THE MINDS OF THE WEALTHY - Write down the values and beliefs of the entrepreneurs you admire or hope to be as successful as, and simply adjust yours to be the same. Another great idea is to actually find a local successful entrepreneur and ask if you can have a coffee with them to 'pick their brain' so to speak. Obviously compliment them, and then explain why you admire them so and ask if it is possible that they would share a few lessons to help you on your way to success. If you can't do that, read the biographies of people like Richard Branson, or Donald Trump and learn that way. Replicate success - and that is what you will get, copy the behaviours of the lazy, and that is also what you will get! Which do you want?
VISUALISE - This may seem a bit odd at first, you may feel like you are day dreaming but it works. The mind can't differentiate between what is real and what isn't. For example, if you held a banana in your hand and looked at it - then put it down, closed your eyes and imagined you were holding a banana - the same neurons in the brain fire off. Visualise success on a daily basis and eventually the mind believes it is real and replicates your subconscious behaviours to ensure that it does happen.
GOALS -All successful entrepreneurs have goals, and they write them down. Have Long term goals and short term goals. It is a great idea to have a goal notebook. If you haven't done it before, start off with small daily or weekly goals. Like - I have achieved 20 marketing calls this week. Once you start achieving quite a few, then stretch yourself. When writing goals - don't worry about the HOW, just put your goals out there and get on with your daily activities. You will be amazed how clever your unconscious mind is at finding ways to make what is possible.
DAILY ACTIVITIES THAT PRODUCE PROFITS - Obvious, I know - but even I am guilty for being distracted by non-income producing activities! The best thing you can do is to sit down and write up the actual tasks that bring in money - whether it be marketing calls, placing an ad or even having a meeting with clients. Once you have your list of direct income making activities, do at least 1 -2 of them EVERYDAY.
EXPECTATION - Expect that you will be successful. This again helps the unconscious mind to replicate what it is hearing / seeing. If it has an expectation of being a success, then it will do everything it needs to to for fill this truth.
ATTITUDE OF GRATITUDE - Focusing on what you have, will only attract more to what you have. Focusing on what you don't have, will attract more of the feeling of lack. Whenever you start feeling that you are focusing on being broke, or on not having enough - stop, and write down ten things you are grateful for. This will shift the energy that you are sending out and help you to re-focus. The more positive you are, you start to notice more positive things and attract more of what you want.
IMMERSE IN SELF-DEVELOPMENT - The true successful entrepreneurs are ALWAYS learning, always evolving. The more you grow inside, the more you will grow in business, finances and so on. Plug yourself into self-development courses regularly to learn.
COMMITMENT - Sometimes you may feel like you are going up a stream without a paddle - I have felt that often. I have even felt that sometimes I am actually going backwards. What I have realised though - is to never give up. Stay focused on your goals and stay committed. If you are determined, no matter what obstacle comes your way, you will ALWAYS find a way to continue towards your goal!
Follow these 8 behaviours daily and I guarantee you will be successful in your own right! Good luck, I can't wait to hear about you one day, and to learn from you! - 15465
