Your Family and Freinds Don’t Quite Support Your New Biz?

Your family and friends don’t quite support your new biz? Nobody in your immediate environment offering strong encouragement?

Well if that sounds familiar, that’s because it is a reality for about 99% of us. So stop wasting you time moping about it and learn here how to conquer it instead.

We surely love our family and friends and they love us too, but with that love comes also a desire to protect us from great disappointments, loss of money, and FAILURE. Sometimes even a fear that we might do good and then that our relationships with them might in turn somehow suffer. In rare occasions, we might even have one of those in the group that actually does not want us to do any better then him/her. No matter how good and honorable or maybe even bad sometimes, those motives are, it’s interesting to note that none of those people are successful entrepreneurs themselves.

So why do we then let non-successful non-entrepreneurs shape our entrepreneurial future?

Listen to this: do you realize that Wall Street is a place where people who drive Roll Royce take the advice from guys who drive subway to work? How wrong is that???

Wrong or not, it happens every day. Here is something else that happens every day: “wanna be entrepreneurs” quit everyday because of things like this because they listen to those who are more broke and less brave than they are:

• “I tried bunch of those MLM companies and never made any money”
• “Yeah…I have tons of friends who got all messed up with the whole ‘work from home’ ideas and it was a total flop – every time
• “I tried to do that part-time from home thing one time and all my friends and family told me it wasn’t going to work, but I would not listen. I spent hundred’s of dollars on vitamins and lotions, in the end just to realize it wasn’t ever going to work”
• “My wife’s friend did that SAME thing, got all her family mad at her for bugging them, never made any money”
• Blah…blah…blah – blah…blah…blah…

Has it ever occurred to you that maybe, just maybe, those people did not do it right? Maybe they did not give it their all? Maybe nobody ever showed them how to do it the right way? Maybe…just maybe…- therefore they never stood the chance.

So love your family, but look for support somewhere else – for now: forums, network marketing sites, other members in your company, team calls, etc…If you’re ever short of places to look, drop me an email and I will point you towards few that you will surely enjoy and reap benefits from.

You know, this business, is not much different than any other business. Many years ago, when I was taking my real estate license class, the first thing they told us was that 95% of us in the class will NEVER succeed in real estate. The point I’m trying to make is that if it was THAT easy, and EVERYBODY knew how to do it right from the start, we would all be successful in it today and millionaires. But it’s not like that; you have to have some basic business-success ingredients in order to make it:

• You have to decide that this is a real business, not a hobby and not something you are going to TRY to do
• You have to learn HOW to do this business properly
• You have to learn to FAIL in order to succeed
• You have to want to be successful and sometimes help others WITHOUT expecting anything in return
• You have to understand that people who are broker than you and stuck in a JOB mentality should NOT be your mentors
• You have to accept that it will take TIME and EFFORT on your part before you will see results
• You don’t have to learn to like writing goals down and your business To-Do list, but you have to DO it
• You have to find new “friends” who have LIKE vision and goals
• You have to have a lot of FAITH in yourself and that what you’re doing is not an accident

We don’t think twice about accepting idea of letting our children stay in 3rd grade for more then 1 school year…why do we than accept our friends and family’s reality as our own?

Not everybody can be Mozart, or Edison, or Alexander the Great…so remember, that not anybody will have the knowledge and tenacity to make it in this business either – DO NOT let their weaknesses shape your future. It does not mean YOU cannot be that one, it just means you will have to be the one you have not ever been before. And that is a journey well worth taking. You – only that much improved! How cool is that???
