How Important is Mindset in Your Business Opportunity?

Have you ever stopped to consider the importance your thoughts play in your advancement towards success?

What you think is what you'll do. And what you do defines who you are. Simply stated, your success begins with mindset. If you base your actions on the thought that you might fail, you're more likely to do just that. But if you base your actions on the thought that you will succeed, you're far more likely to get the results you desire.

Developing an entrepreneurial mindset is one of the most crucial elements to success in any home- based business opportunity. Your thoughts have to literally shift from that of "employee," meaning you're willing to work hard to make someone else wealthy and successful, to that of "entrepreneur," meaning you hold yourself accountable for your efforts and utilize those efforts to make yourself wealthy and successful.

Most people let fear dictate their actions because they don't want to fail or they don't want to get too excited about something. Most likely, the majority of things you've gotten excited about in your life have never quite lived up to the expectations you built in your mind. That mentality can bleed over to all aspects of your life, thus affecting outcomes and triggering defense mechanisms that lead you to pre-judge opportunities before you uncover all the facts about them. Approaching anything with uncertainty will cause you to put more effort into a result, which inevitably leads to a reinforcement of your initial thought.

Ever call a network marketing opportunity a scam without looking into it in great detail? Of course you have, because your defense mechanism immediately triggered.

Contrarily, an entrepreneur has the mindset that allows them to explore every situation and determine whether it can benefit them or not. They don't pre-judge or immediately disqualify an opportunity that could be beneficial to them based on past experiences. Instead of approaching the opportunity with uncertainty, they approach it with confidence and take action to begin establishing a foundation of success.

The following video is Anthony Robbins interviewing Frank Kern and John Reese, two established leaders in the network marketing industry. It's by far one of the best videos I've seen on mindset adjustment. This video will change the way you think if you approach it with an open mind.
