We see it happen every day. People giving up before they should. Why? There are as many excuses as there are quitters. Yup, I said excuses. What is the difference between excuses and reasons?
Excuses are only justification for giving up. You have let yourself get whupped. You have failed. Failed to give that little extra effort that separates the winners and losers. You have failed to learn from the tools available to you. You have failed to ask for help. You have failed to plan. Instead, you have planned to fail. Remember, failure is a state of mind. You have created an atmosphere of tunnel vision and lost site of vision. You lost the battle but failed to fight the war.
Reasons are real, not excuses. Your health has failed. You have exhausted all of your available resources. You just don't have the necessary conviction to be in business. You have tried change, asking and searching for help and are convinced that business just isn't for you.
It isn't for everybody. 10% of marketing people make 90% of the money. Why? Read back over the previous paragraphs. The most important tool you have to succeed is You! It isn't easy cause if it was, everybody would be doing it. We are all blessed with 20/20 hind site. I should have, I could have, if I had only, why didn't I. These words create negativity and that in turn creates failure.
Folks, the information and resources are there. You can get everything you need to succeed except perseverance and tenacity. No one can give you the belief you can succeed or the mental attitude to stick with it. Quitting is much easier than succeeding. It is human nature to take the course of least resistance. Quitting before you really try.
We all have a dream of something we want to accomplish. A desire to be successful. Unfortunately people that fail do it to themselves. They get overwhelmed and don't stop, take a deep breath and ask for help. It is out there everywhere.
Yup, there is a lot of crap on the Internet, but there is a lot of good help, a lot of it free. If you are feeling overwhelmed, lost and don't know where to turn, stop, don't quit! You might be just a question away from being a winner. A lot of the successful folks are very willing to share their knowledge with you; even take you by the hand and show you how.
Our E-Business Tutor Message Board is a prime example. We recently put it up for the purpose of sharing our knowledge with anyone asking for help. Guess what? Very few are asking questions! Isn't that amazing? The reason is simple. They are afraid of being embarrassed by asking a stupid question. Wake up! The only stupid question is the one that is not asked. Come on, ask! http://pub57.ezboard.com/fputercentralfrm2
The choice is yours. Are you quitting before you Win? are you making excuses to fail? You don't have to.
Happy Marketing, Mike and Gail
