“If you build it, they will come.”?
?? It’s a LIE!? And I HATE it.???
This was the biggest ‘broken record’ that was installed in my head.?
My parents, my sister, coaches, mentors, teachers, and EVERYONE who influenced me growing up used to tell me that “If I build something awesome, people will flock to it, buy it, and you will have the lifestyle you always wanted”!??
Well, I can wholeheartedly say, this is not true. ??
What is true??
The right solution to the right problem for the right people will bring the result you want so you can have the lifestyle you desire…
...and building the right solution is only part of the battle.?
Inviting others to come see your solution is the other part.
Over the past 21+ years, I’ve coached 1000s of sales pros, entrepreneurs, and biz owners.? And I’ve been able to group them into 3 buckets…??
All 3 have a similar back-story.??
They grew up with influencers close to them (like parents, siblings, coaches, teachers) who put stories in their head about what’s right or wrong, or how businesses should be run (even if the influencer never built a business).?
These stories were stored in their minds and played over and over till the ‘broken records’ became beliefs.?
Example, “Don’t Talk To Strangers.”?
We all remember this.? It was installed in us out of love, protection, and respect.?
As we evolve into adults and then into business owners, we need to change this mantra from “Don’t Talk To Strangers” to? “Strangers Are Good For My Business and I need to meet more of them”.
Unfortunately, the Unaware continue to play the “Don’t Talk To Strangers” record over and over….? NEVER making the needed adjustments, continuing to fail, stress out, and crumble.???
Luckily, the Aware Person and the Adaptive Person realize this is happening and start, or have already started down a path of change.??
Which brings me to the main point…?
You must sell to grow your business.?
If you don’t want to sell, there’s a broken record in your head which you must adjust.?
So how do we get there??
Your T.E.A.R.s.?
领英推荐
Not the kind rolling down your cheeks after you get kicked in the privates, but an acronym describing a framework to allow you to break free.?
T.E.A.R. stands for:?
T.hought creates Emotion.?
E.motion creates Action.??
A.ction gets Results.?
R.esults provides Lifestyle.?
All you have to do is re-adjust your thoughts and they will allow you to get started in the direction you need to go to achieve the lifestyle you want.?
If you’re wondering why you’re broke…? It’s just a simple mindset shift.?
New Thoughts = Different Result.?
Remember what Einstein said, “Doing the same actions over and over and expecting a different outcome is the definition of insanity.”?
Don’t be insane.?
If you’re stuck and want to grow your business, connect with 5 new people each day, and watch what happens!
Be consistent.??
