subject: Please Dont Eat Those Worms: 5 Steps To Help You Get Through The Mlm Struggle [print this page] Nobody likes me everybody hates me Im gonna eat some worms.
I remember hearing that song growing up. Not sure where, though. =)
Ever had one of those days where you just wanted to eat the worms?
Youve been working hard in your mlm business, blog, or online company. Setting up all of those wonderful tools that are going to get you thousands of leads scrambling to your blog or website, joining your mlm business and buying your products or services.
Yet each day you wake up and absolutely nothing appears to be happening. All of the late evenings, all those follow-up calls and appointments, and still nothing?! You feel like no one really cares about what you have to say or what you're trying to accomplish. Sound familiar?
Well dont give up hope, youre going to have a whole lot of days like this just before you start to see any real success, therefore youd better get used to it and figure out how to take pleasure in the process! I know, thats not very encouraging, but hey, its the truth and you know it.
See, the reality is, true progress happens in the trying times. The periods where your determination is tried, and cultivated. Where your tenacity is increased and your character is proven.
Yep, the good ol bad times are where the magic takes place. So be joyful and glad in it because you know what? If you stay the course and dont give up, you will experience success beyond your imagination and it will be more than just a monetary achievement.
You will have the benefit of looking back at your difficulties as well as disappointments and be able to say, thank you lord for it all. When this occurs in your life, you will be a genuine asset to a person; at that time, you will really have something of value to provide to those people following your footsteps.
Feeling depressed and frustrated about the condition of your mlm company is a form of opposition. Youre combating what is rather than going with the flow.
So when you start to feel like eating those proverbial worms, try these 5 helpful techniques.
Step Away
Take a day where you are business free. Dont think about it, dont discuss it, dont even dream about it. Give yourself and your brain a rest and enjoy the day. Go spend time with your friends (without thinking of ways to recruit them...Lol). Complete that book youve wanted to read or go to a movie. Just find something that gets your mind off of your business.
Quit pulling your hair out searching for different marketing strategies
I understand you want to see profits in your business, but I can almost bet that you are already doing what you can do to market your opportunity. If you dont find ideas flowing to you easily, it usually means there is nothing else that needs to be done except to wait.
Recognize that anything youve put in place is working for you behind the scenes and you will see the results of your efforts at some point.
Now if you already know there is something you ought to be doing and you havent done it yet, well then you need to be about the business of getting that done and not thinking of something else.
Meditate
Whatever this means to you, practice it. You need to be taking time out everyday to think on the good things... Meditation is medicine for your mind.
Smile
Stop taking things so seriously. Enjoy yourself. Don't forget this is a process of growth in your intrinsic life as well as your external life. Delight in every moment of it. Dont be afraid to laugh at yourself.
I know if someone were watching me at some of my most stress filled moments, theyd be laughing their heads off. Ive caught myself several times in the heat of the moment and just had to stop and laugh! Not only is laughing good for you, it firms your stomach muscles as well. ;)
Believe
Yes faith can move mountains, however it begins with belief. It's important to have confidence in yourself and what it is you are trying to achieve. Believe that you are in the best place at the right time working on precisely what directed you to your decision to enter this business from the get go. Youll see that your belief will develop into faith and faith is knowing that you already are a success.
