So, what are the mindset traits or characteristics you must master to be a Network Marketing success?

• Belief

• Fear

• Assumptions

• Faith

• Criticism

Let’s cover each one in depth –

Belief:

• 3 Types – Your Company/Products; Network Marketing; Yourself
• The system
• The timeline of success
• Of others
• That there IS a better way
• That if ANYONE has done it, you can, too!

Develop belief mantras, quotes and I AM statements to get you to that strong belief level!

Fear:

• Fear shows up in all kinds of ways – procrastination, busy work, excuses
• Fear of what others will think
• Fear that the company won’t succeed, or “Where is the security?”
• Fear of success

Success is not about becoming fear-less; it’s about being more committed to a different set of fears – what you will miss if you DON’T do it – than any other fears.

Assumptions:

• You know what they say about assuming – it makes a donkey’s behind out of me and you!
• Like fears, we make up all kinds of assumptions – if he was interested, he would call; she must NOT be interested since I have not heard; my business will build itself; people will show up when they say they will; people will remember I have a business when the time is right
• NEVER let assumptions run your business.
• ALWAYS assume to the positive – I haven’t heard from them, so they are just busy and waiting to hear from me; if they haven’t said no, then it’s a maybe

“If others tell us something we make assumptions, and if they don’t tell us something we make assumptions to fulfill our need to know and to replace the need to communicate. Even if we hear something and we don’t understand we make assumptions about what it means and then believe the assumptions. We make all sorts of assumptions because we don’t have the courage to ask questions.”

― Miguel Ruiz, The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom

Faith:

• Sometimes, you just gotta draw on your inner faith and KNOW that the outcome you desire is coming.
• You trust the sun will come up, right? WHY?
• If this business has worked for anyone, and they share what they are doing and how they have done it, why not you? Why would your circumstances be different if you follow the same path.
• “Faith is walking face-first and full-speed into the dark. If we truly knew all the answers in advance as to the meaning of life and the nature of God and the destiny of our souls, our belief would not be a leap of faith and it would not be a courageous act of humanity; it would just be… a prudent insurance policy.”  Elizabeth gilbert
• What I know is this – once I got clear that success would be mine as long as I stayed committed and consistent and took action daily, I powered through even the dark times, and the sun always came out – people showed up at the most interesting times to join me in my business.
• Faith is believing in what we can’t see…..and it is magical!

“Faith is about doing. You are how you act, not just how you believe.”  Mitch Albom, Have a little Faith

Criticism

• There are many types of criticism. Think about the many critical thoughts you may have each day!
• Your company
• Management
• Products
• Upline
• Crossline
• Downline
• Prospects
• The criticism you feel from others – “You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.” Winston Churchill
• Self – apples and oranges; life situations; history in business and life; and so on

Don’t compare your beginning to someone else’s middle. Comparing is the same as criticism.

Bob Dylan – “Don’t criticize what you can’t understand.”

ACTION STEPS

1.  Keep a journal of when your thought turns critical.

2. Dig a little deeper as to what might be provoking this, besides what you THINK the criticism is.

3. When you find your thoughts turning critical, reframe it – speak it out loud with a positive twist.

4. Pay special attention to self criticism.

5. Like assumptions, criticism is often about things we do not understand, or know what we think we do about it!
