K, I'm not going to soften the message. We're talking about the possibility for revival, and it'll be done in a unique way.
Nine out of ten businesses fail within the first five years of their existence. And statistically, only a small percentage of those which remain, end up making it. We have an economy that people think is bad, and watch this...as a result they end up becoming a product of their own perception of the economy. Actually, if we look at it scientifically, we are simply a product of our beliefs. Just food for thought: how is is that some people are starting businesses in this very economy and making it incredibly well, while everyone else is failing? Actually, that's kind of what I'm going to discuss in this article series. Evidently, it is not the economy...unless we have a seriously biased, self-intelligent, able-to-feed-itself economy, which we don't.
The longer you remain believing that you are the victim of someone or something else, the longer it is that you are justifying yourself for keeping your finger on the pause button of your own potential achievements. And as long as you don't take action, it will only remain as potential. If you're justifying your inactivity, you don't even have the potential. Sorry.
Okay now...business is totally about action, just like personal growth is about action. But it is totally about the right kind of action. About doing the right thing in the right order at the right time. By the way, that's not something you just wanna breeze over. What's worse, you don't have the excuse available that you don't know the right actions, or the right order, or the right time. While this may be the actual condition, we have a world of resource at our fingertips, and by using the excuse or proceeding without the DEFINITE information, you indirectly sign your own failure acceptance form.
Our success or failure couldn't care less about our likes or dislikes. Rather, it is a direct result, the direct sum of our collective mental and physical output. Intention is the basis of creation, for sure. But the physical outcome will only match our original intent if we use every ounce of our knowledge and abilities to try to make it happen. Ignorance is not supported because there is no room to make a mistake.
Of course if we were to set out after our business with this mindset, with the definite plan, we wouldn't stop if we couldn't figure something out. We'd find a way to figure it out. But here's the catch...that is the description of those who make it big. We'll continue in the next article.
