Ever take a long look at a business owner? They are financially independent, confident, and free from all of the garbage that being someone's employee brings with it. Maybe they're driving the car you've always wanted, or are living in the house in which you've always pictured yourself, and you're a bit jealous. You can't help but think that "sure, he can afford those things-he owns his own business."
We are absolutely comfortable explaining somebody's successes by this "having his own business"-thing, and, yet, the idea of becoming one of this people terrifies us like nothing else.
But you're not alone. Pull a couple of your friends aside and try and talk them into running a home-based business. They'll come up with a dozen reasons why they can't do it and a dozen more why you shouldn't try either. The standard response is "it's a good idea, but it will never work."
Why do we act this way? What happened in our past that we've become so conditioned to fail? Why is the failure so obvious and understandable for us? When has it become a default outcome of any situation?
It's a complicated question with a complicated answer. Let's break it down.
Our system of teaching, the Prussian System, trains us-whether we realize it or not-to be good emploees. It gives us the skills and molds our minds to work for someone else!
All through our school years, even up through university, we are taught to be upright citizens within society, to conform and find a job, waste the next four or five decades toiling away for a boss who doesn't really care about us. The only thing we're working for is a retirement that will allow us simply exist without bumming money from our loved ones.
We learn to see the only possible course for our life to take is work for someone else, to please our employers, and hope that they will reward us for the work that we do.
We are told that there is nothing un-dignifying about that, quite opposite, receiving a pat on the back and a few bucks from your boss is a good thing, mainly because this is the only way to make a living.
What happened to your childhood dreams of being an astronaut, a fighter pilot, or a deep sea diver? When did you start thinking that being a desk jockey was an acceptable replacement for those dreams?
We forget our dreams because we are repeatedly reminded that they are impractical. How can we make money doing those things? How can we support our families? How can we be productive members of society?
Time passes and without you even noticing you've spent the better part of your life working for someone you don't like, doing something you really couldn't care less about, and hoping for a turn of good fortune in the future. Do you want your kids to end up like that?
It's the sort of behavior we learned from our parents and it's the behavior you'll be passing on to your kids and your grandchildren if you don't find the courage to put a stop to the cycle and turn your future around.
By working for yourself you can take your life back and regain the future you always wanted.
It so scary! Mainly because it's something new, something you've never done before.
Especially something like an Internet based business, with all the hype and rumors about it!
That's where the "Comfort Zone" comes to play.
What is the one way we learn anything?
Repetition, that's the key. When you were young and just learning to write the only way you learned to do so was through doing the same thing over and over again until you became good at it and you didn't even have to think about what you were doing.
Any new skill is learned that way, no matter what it is.
Through repetition you become who you are as well.
Maybe the only thing that gets you through your day is thinking that the position you are in now is only temporary. You drag yourself to work early in the morning, smile and make jokes with a boss you don't respect and don't really care for, you listen to your co-workers as they gripe about the same things that keep you up at night, all the time dreaming of that big break you're going to get a little ways down the road.
Someday, maybe sooner than later, your eyes will open and you'll see that, without your knowledge, you have become a cookie-cutter representative of everyone you share an occupation with. You own the same style of car, wear the same clothes, speak the same language, and even have the same hobbies!
Learning through repetition has led you down the path to become who you are and has made everything in your life fall into one of two categories: familiar and unfamiliar.
You become comfortable with the familiar things and the unfamiliar things cause anxiety by releasing a burst of adrenalin into your bloodstream.
A minuscule amount of this substance will dictate your actions, the decisions you make and ultimately your destiny!
Tony Robbins once said, "It's in the moment of making a decision when the destiny is formed!"
But that adrenalin in your bloodstream won't let you make any decisions that would lead to any significant change. The chemical is released when you're confronted with something new and makes you feel uncomfortable, jittery, and unsure of yourself. You'll do almost anything to make the feeling go away and the easiest way to do that is to stay stuck in the same old routines.
And everyone you know will help you stay on that familiar track.
Want to hear a strange statistic? A person's income is almost always the average of the incomes of their seven closest friends. That means that people don't generally hang out with people who make significantly less, or significantly more than they themselves do.
This means that you can't really go to a friend and ask advice about how to make a six figure salary-not unless your friend already does. They just won't know how to answer you and will most often reply that "it can't be done" or will tell you to get your head out of the clouds.
The worst part is you'll take their opinion as fact, more often than not, because it represents the path of least resistance-it's much easier to keep doing what you are doing than to succeed at anything new.
"People are having hard time letting go of their suffering. Out of fear of the unknown they prefer suffering that is familiar." Thich Nhat Hanh wrote these words hundreds of years ago. Did he write it about you?
If you're truly contemplating what Global Resorts Network can do for you then you've probably done a lot of research, learned a little bit about Internet marketing and read or watched a ton of testimonials from people who have come before you but you're probably still worrying about all of the what-ifs. What if I can't get my business off the ground? What if something goes wrong? What if I lose money? What if I can never succeed?
Here is a story for you.
Leading up to my tournament debut, I spoke with my Tae Kwon Do coach, Master Shilkaitis, and said: "I want to compete but I don't think I'm ready yet." He answered that "you will never feel that you are one hundred percent ready. It's just a matter of finding the strength and desire to win and overcoming your fear!" Truer words were never spoken.
I took a third place for a spectacular knock-out with a round house kickto the head. It doesn't happen even in the black belt category every day. I was so frightened, that I still don't remember how it happened!
I can talk until I'm blue in the face and you either will choose to expand your horizons and realize your potential, or you will fall back into those old comfortable routines and be right back where you started.
Nothing will change on its own! If you continue doing what you've been doing, you will continue getting the results you've been getting!
Change your life today!
You'll be scared and there will be bumps in the road but you'll never know just how high you can truly fly unless you get off the ground.
To get everything you deserve you have to change the way you are doing things. Make the decision today and choose your destiny.
Maybe the next time you hear someone's jealous remarks about being able to afford those fancy things, they'll be talking about you! - 15485
