- From Chaos to Clarity
“There are winners, there are losers and there are people who have not yet learned to win.”
Back in 2001, the Tragic events of 9/11 Shook the World!
And — I graduated college shortly after. I was about to enter the job market during a time of chaos and uncertainty! Little did I know that a business opportunity would teach me one of the most valuable lessons of my life.
A classmate introduced me to a network marketing business. At the time, I was applying for engineering jobs. I joined, attended trainings, joined the chamber of commerce, and pitched my family too. Despite making a few sales, I decided to quit.
Prospecting wasn’t for me. I remember walking up to a lady in Walmart and pitching her on our offer. She didn’t say much but gave me a grin. Let’s say, we both knew I failed miserably - LOL. It’s ok - you can laugh too.
I can say that network marketing helped me start good personal development habits.
Quick question - Have you ever read a book or received a word of advice that changed the direction of your life?
For me it was these three key points that planted seeds:
Rich Dad Poor Dad: Go to work to learn not to focus on money!
Jim Rohn: Work harder on yourself that you do your job!
Friend: Don't get too comfortable at a job, or you might be in for a surprise!
This advice helped me during my first engineering job. I learned everything I could while expanding my expertise. Things became more clear as I developed. I soon realized that playing offense was crucial to my success. I didn't want to get caught off guard like my co-worker who got laid off.
Fast forward 15 years and several corporations later, I made the entrepreneurial leap. The success I've had came from prioritizing my mindset maintenance. There will always be ups and downs in life and business. We must focus on maintaining a positive and growth mindset.
It will change your life!
