I've been on this Earl Nightingale kick lately and there is one phrase he kept repeating over, and over again.
The phrase:
“We become what we think about”
And after thinking about that single phrase…
6 words.
So powerful that it can bring success to someone who uses it correctly, but failure to those who don't know how.
Here's what I mean:
Most new folks getting started online can follow a proven formula for getting results, see others getting results with said system and fail to get results for themselves.
Why?
Well..
They are looking at other folks results and comparing their lack of results to them.
Which gives them a crappy attitude toward their business.
Resentment or envy?
Thinking like:
“they have to be doing something I'm not doing”
“why can't I get those results?”
etc..
Or worse..
Say you buy solo ads to build up your email list (what I currently do and it works incredibly well for me) and you are putting subscribers on your list but no-one is opening your emails…
(A trend I see when talking to some subscribers and customers)
They would tell me things like:
“Solo ads don't work”
“Solo ad leads are dead or fake”
“I can't make sales with solo ads”
Remember what Nightingale said:
“We become what we think about”
Of course they don't work for someone with that attitude.
Change your attitude about your business, about the leads you generate, etc.
And work with that attitude to improve what you are doing.
You'll likely see your business improve.
