How do you keep pressing on in your job knowing it is not your future?
I was at work the other day, and it was one of those days where everything seems to put you in a state of mind that is not conducive to success. There are a few ideas that keep me going in a situation like that.
1. I know that this job is a stepping stone to other opportunities.
2. This job is only temporary, as long as I keep building my home business.
3. Success is a state of mind. If you asked 1,000 wise men what success is, each would come up with a different definition. If this is the case, and I did the best I could do, did the necessary actions to grow my home based business, I can say, "I am a successs".
4. Life is a process, and success has a process also. In order to succeed, I must 'grow' through the process. KEY: EMBRACE THE PROCESS!
5. When it gets tough, and you get down, discipline yourself and your disappointments. If you are following the plan, using the tools you have found to grow your business, know that you will succeed, if you do not quit.
In closing, I leave you with this thought: In 'THINK AND GROW RICH', Napolean Hill interviewed some of the most successful men over a 25 year period. He was repeated told by many successful men that they had achieved their greatest success, right after their biggest failure! They attributed their ability to "stick to it" as their greatest asset. The Principle here is PERSERVERANCE. This one characteristic will overcome many a obstacle. While many quit after a devastating failure, the successful man knows he will succeed if he persists. That's the way I press on in the face of life.

Doubts, Fears and Faith
My first thought that comes to mind is, "Doubt bars the way"!
This enemy must be shown the door.
Notice the word, "ENEMY". I have seen this word broken down several ways. For example, the Enemay in-a-me, or by the play on the word, the inner-me. I like this way of looking at the term enemy. Why? Because, it puts the ball back in your hands, so to speak. It empowers you to do something about the inner me. If the inner me is not supporting you in achieving the success you want you need to teach the inner me some new ideas. What in the heck are you talking about? I am talking about the neverending dialogue that goes on in your mind. The enemy that is in-a-you, is the one who speaks of doubt and fear.
What if he was an ally and a friend?
What if he was trained by the best mentors in the world?
Today, I am speaking in general terms about our way of thinking or our philosophy about life. But, in my life I have learned that these habitual ways of thinking (or philosophies) are what determine our success in business, family and in just about every area of life.
Let's change the focus of the subject. Let's look at the opposite of doubt and fear. The opposite could be said to be faith. Faith is another word for belief or trust. It could also be called confidence. Confidence can be defined as trust, boldness, sure of oneself or being certain. So, our next question is, of what can we be certain? We can be certain of only that which is the truth. The fundamental or basic truths about life are what give us the boldness to act. Why are we bold when we know what action to take? Because, we are confident that the laws that govern success are in back of that action and we cannot fail if we apply the principle. A principle is a fundamental truth. It is a truth that all other truths Rest Upon.
In my journey through life I have sought out these truths. I have looked in many directions and in many schools of thought. Guess what? I began to see many of the same truths being repeated over and over again!
I invite you to travel with me on this road of life, and maybe we can share some of the insights we have glimpsed with each other. I try and take these truths and apply them to every aspect of my life. I have noticed that they are just as practical in business as well.
