No Plan B
The term "delete your plan b" was something that I heard quite a few years back and it changed my way of thinking when working on this whole online business.
A mentor who I sought out for help asked me this one question," If this business of yours doesn't work for you, do you have and what is your plan b?"
Before I could answer that question he said that one of the biggest reasons people fail is they create a back up plan in their minds in case what they are trying to do now falls through on them.
Essentially, I had already set myself up to fail before I had even started.
Your mindset is the most important part of your business as a whole. You could be awesome at driving traffic to any site but if you believe that most will never buy your stuff, guess what?
You're probably right.
So if you have a plan B for your inevitable failing, delete and just say out loud that this will work for me and there is no other option then to push forward.

I love this way of thinking, you're so right in that mindset is the key. It's about having that shift in identity almost - as in believing you are what you are now doing. Rather than telling people I'm 'trying to start a travel website and see where I get with it', I tell them I am a travel blogger. This simple difference really helps me believe it more!
