Don't be part of the 98% of the masses that GIVE UP! They give up,
throw in the towel and often when they are at the brink of achieving their
goals. 98% just give up. They lose. They lose not by some outside force. They
lose not by some force of the marketplace. They lose because their MINDS just
gave up. Lost patience, collapsed. That allows the 2% to come along and scoop
up YOUR success with little or no effort. You did YEARS of work, they get
rewarded for YOUR work in minutes. All because you gave up.
Imagine you are 5 years old and
you are on a 20 hour trip to Disneyland. It is
11 hours into the trip. Instead of focusing on the reward for putting up with
the 20 hour trip, you feel dejected. You are tired and cranky and you want to
turn back before you get your reward. That is a TRICK played by your mind and
it is YOUR JOB to outsmart your mind. Outsmart the feeling that can only sink
you. Now imagine the same scenario after 18 hours. All pain no gain if you quit
and turn around. The result, 36 hours of driving with no results to show for
your time. But guess what?? 98% of all people do exactly that when it comes to
business goals. They quit just before they realize their goal. Instead of the
great feeling you get after a great success, they get nothing but a sick
feeling every time they look back. Instead of getting fuel for the next task,
they added an anchor to their leg and their minds. That automatically makes the
next task even harder to have a success with because instead of exercising their
“Success muscle” they have exercised and made stronger their “Failure muscle.”
The main KEYS to all this is
TIME, PATIENCE and TIMING. If you picked the wrong TIME to do something your
results may not be the same if you had chosen the RIGHT TIME. Unfortunate as it
is, when the RIGHT TIME comes, many are so battle fatigued that they are ready
to give up at the PRECISE MOMENT they should do the exact opposite and work
their hardest as their GOAL is right over the next horizon. They just ran out
of patience and a great victory has been snatched by the jaws of defeat.
Don't even think about being
part of the 98% of masses that embrace failure and fear success. Don’t feed
failure and starve success. Don’t be one to achieve failure because you give up
on the doorstep of success. And more importantly, don’t fear failure unless you
give up and don’t learn anything. Failure on the journey is an opportunity for success
unless you give up. If you make a wrong turn on the way to
Have a GREAT day!
