What you think about all day becomes a belief that affects your feelings in positive or negative ways. So you need to guard your thoughts jealously so you allow only things that will affirm you into your mind

What’s on your mind?

It is widely believed that what is standing between you and your desired success is what is contained between your two ears. Your thoughts are constantly plagued by doubts, stinking thinking,fear of failure because affiliate marketing is still an uncharted territory for you



If I may ask, how do you think about your business? Do you think of your business from the standpoint of the past, present or future self? Here’s the implication:

Do you think in the past, present or Future?

If you look at your business from the standpoint of the past, you will be seeing it through the lens of a trauma-filled past, a past checkered by your failures and losses

If you view your business from the perspective of the present, depending on where you are standing, you may be seeing your business from a not too enviable present.

But if you choose to view your business from a re-imagined and enhanced future which you have freely created, you will be doing so from a position of strength with a greater probability of reaching your goals. While it is not advised for you to measure your progress from where you are to your idle place, you can view your business from the standpoint of your future self, for inspiration.

Benefits of thinking in the Future

Because you are driven by your future, it is easy for you to say NO to any request that does not align with your goals. The ability to say NO to requests that are not congruent with your goals is what distinguishes the successful from the unsuccessful.

As your bright future beckons to you, you will not find it difficult to make that choice between sitting all night watching TV and going to bed early so you can have a good night’s rest and wake up the following day refreshed to work on your business.

When you are in sync with your future self, you do not press the snooze button when the alarm rings to wake you up in the morning. You instinctively wake up a couple of minutes before the alarm goes off.

Conclusion

Now that you are viewing your business through the prism of your future self, you still need to align your actions to your expectations.

It’s not enough to think who you want to become. You have to act accordingly. Your actions from now on have to align with your decision.

The late Motivational mentor Jim Rohn had this to say, “ A lot of people don’t do well simply because they major in minor things.”

If you think in your future self but busy yourself majoring in distractions instead of doing the hard work, you will not realize your ambition.

It all boils down to this: What do you want to be tomorrow? Do you want to be your future self? Or do you want to remain your present or even past self? If you choose to be your future self, make sure your actions match your intentions.

I look over my shoulder to see where I have been, work today for tomorrow's success.

Always looking from an overview so the work today is not misplaced and the follys of yesterday are not repeated.

Leave yesterday at today's dawn, red sky at night tomorrow is going to be a cracker.

Thanks for waxing poetic in your comment. I appreciate.

Great post Dadaz122. The strap line on one of my 2 new sites is: ‘LEARN from the past, DESIGN the future, CEEATE it now.’

That's the way to go! Thanks for your comment.
