Most of us who come into this business have never done many of the things we must do in Shaklee if we expect growth and change to occur. The following is a great quote from Eleanor Roosevelt.
"We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by
each experience in which we really stop to look fear
in the face..... We must do that which we think we cannot."
Eleanor Roosevelt
The part that strikes me the most is when she says, "We must do that which we think we cannot." I'm sure many of you had some doubt when you first saw this opportunity. I know that I wondered if it were really possible to have the kind of future that I heard about at the meetings I attended. I recall thinking, it's easy for them (the speaker) to talk that way but I had loads of doubt but at the same time I wanted it to be true.
The more meetings I attended the more my belief grew. I met and heard lots of average people who had already made it to higher levels of income. That was the part I liked best about the meetings. The stories.
The more stories I heard the more my thoughts started to change to, "I think I can do this. I just have to learn how to do this. If they can do it, I can do it." Those simple words were like magic for me because I bought into it 100%....IF THEY CAN DO IT, I CAN DO IT."
The reason you can build to whatever level you want is because others have done it hundreds and thousands of times before you. How's your self-talk? Are you nice to yourself or do you beat yourself up verbally?
This business is more mental than we give it credit for. My suggestion for this week? Pay attention to what your thoughts are every day. You'll learn what thoughts have to be eliminated, and what you have to accept.
Enthusiastically,
Gary Burke
