Got a great email from a fellow marketer Matt Furey which really got me thinking about how this applies to internet network marketing and network marketing in general.
Just the other day, Alex Rodriguez belted his 600th career home run,
making him only the 7th major league player to do so in 110+
odd years of the league.
Now, truth be told, I am no fan of the New York Yankees, having
grown up near Boston, and even less so of an admitted steroid
user…..one has to admit that this is a herculean feat in itself.
One of Alex’s keys to his success has always been visualization of
his goals, particularly that of hitting home runs.
In fact, a short while ago, he wrote the forward of a book for a
noted sports psychologist, Gary Mack, where he discusses this very fact.
How he visualizes home runs from each and every angle and not just
from the batters box. From the outfield, from the stands, from 2nd
base, everywhere.
Why I bring this up is that this is also one of the hidden roadblocks to
success in any kind of business, particularly in Netw’ork Marketing.
Often this is our own first entry into owning and running a business on
our own and there is a lot of mental garbage we need to sort through
to be successful.
Things like:
“Does net’work marketing really work?”
“Why would someone buy anything from me?”
“I don’t know how to sell anything”
What makes mattes worse is that you have nay sayers from your
family and friends.
Now, I’m not here to convince you that this industry works, or that
you can run a successful business.
What I do want to tell you is that I personally got through alot of the
mental garbage about running a business by learning how to combine
internet marketing and net’work marketing and learning a few basic
marketing principles like target marketing, list building, lead generation,
etc.
It’s really not that hard, just learn a few basic skills and you can start
growing your business today, step by step.
One of the things you can learn in my Simple ML’M Leads Course
is the thought process and some easy proven methods for you to start
generating leads for your own business right now, today, without
all the hype and fluff you hear from many marketers.

I don’t care what aspirations you entertain in life mindset is everything.
I think so many people get caught up in the how they forget the why and what.
The why being our core level reason to achieve success and the what the tools like visualization to accompany positive thoughts and attitudes.
Then and only then will the skills make the difference.

Steve,
So true there. You’ve gotta get your mind right before anything.

Visualization of goals is key. Visualization of your goals leads to a plan of action which then results in the physical creation of the goal you visualized.
Everything is created twice, first mentally, second physically. A building is first created in the mind of the architect before it is physically built. So do the same with your life, visualize then create.
Couldn’t agree more with Steve and Kurt. Mindset really is everything. Any skills you have aren’t worth anything without the right mindset. Unfortunately so many people could be successful people just don’t get that yet.
