What To Do When Its Raining?

Today I want to share a principle with you that can and will change your life if you allow it to.

Imagine a salesman waking up in the morning and seeing it pouring down raining, some are calling it the storm of the century!

So the salesman #1 wakes up and says, "WOW, it is really coming down out there. No one can expect me to go out in that to make any sales! I think I'll stay home"

It is a somewhat plausible conclusion... would you agree?

Salesman #2 wakes up and says, "WOW, it is really coming down out there. I bet a lot of people are home! I better get out there and make these sales!"

Whoa... do you see the difference there?

Perspective is what will make or break your ability to be successful in ANY walk of life, not just blogging.

The thing about that 'storm' that is coming... is that there is ALWAYS a storm coming. But it is up to YOU as to how you view the storm and how you make it out of the storm.

Be the glass half-full person... no one else will be that for you.

If your life is in a position right here where you do not want it to be, CHANGE IT. Simple as that.

No worries, I am prepared to see all the "this is why I can't change..." comments that will occur in this thread.

In the spirit of being proactive think this way... what have you been doing the last 5 years that has gotten you in the situation that you are in right now?

I'll give you time to think..... Got it?

Ok, remember this... If YOU do not change, you can expect about the same for the next 5 years. It all begins with YOU.


Don't wait for the economy to change... because it will largely remain the same

Don't wait for your negative family members to change... because they will largely remain the same

Don't wait for the political climate to change... because it will largely remain the same

Don't wait for prices to change... because it will largely remain the same

If you want success, not just financially, but all around bona fied success YOU HAVE TO CHANGE WHILE EVERYTHING ELSE REMAINS LARGELY THE SAME.

So go out there into the storm of the century and make those sales because you know everyone will be home... especially salesman #1.

Keep pushing, Keep Succeeding.

Thank you for this word of exhortation, your light shines brightly. Something I'm personally doing to go from salesman #1 to salesman #2 are daily affirmations. "No obstacle stands in my way" (10x) "I can do this" (10x) "There is no limit and no ceiling to what I can achieve" (10x). It's changing my life and quickly too, I highly recommend.

awesome. choose salesman #2!

Spot on Chris!
I was always told “attitude equals altitude”, meaning a positive attitude will help you rise above whatever challenges you face and achieve success.
Happy Friday!
