In this episode we’re going to be talking about fear. Many of you already know what you should be doing to be successful in your network marketing business, but for some reason, you’re either not doing it or you are not doing it consistently. You may be feeling discouraged and stuck, and I’m going to explain why you’re feeling this way. I’m also going to give you a framework and process to help you start facing your fears to create the breakthrough you’re looking for.
If you’re feeling stuck in your business, there’s most likely one big reason: you have been unwilling to face the greatest fears that you have in your business. The things that we avoid and know we’re supposed to do are oftentimes the things that we fear the most.
I want to introduce you to something called Creative Interpretations. Whenever we face our greatest fears, we make up a STORY around that very thing that is scaring us. That does one of two things:
1 - It keeps you from taking the action, and justifies you playing small and not facing your fears, called a Red Light.
Or 2 - Or you will make up a story about that particular event or situation that will empower you to feel the fear and take the action anyway, be courageous, which is called a Green Light.
The difference between successful people and people that fail is not that they don’t feel fear - it’s that they make up different stories that empower them to be courageous. They condition themselves to always look at the positive.
I want you to catch yourself the next time you create a negative story that makes you stop at a red light. I want you to force yourself to look at the positives and tell yourself why you NEED to be doing what you’re doing.
Every time you face a fear and play small, it kills your enthusiasm, belief, and confidence. And that’s why some of you are so stuck. The moment you make the decision to do it a different way and start creating green lights, you grow - even if the results aren’t there in the beginning.
It’s not going to be easy - it will take dedicated practice. However if you do this long enough, you’ll condition yourself to do it from the positive instead of the negative.
Here’s what matters: the person you become in the process of overcoming your fears. That is the greatest gift that you will be offered through this business.
Hopefully you get a ton of value out of the training, feel free to share the episode with anyone that you think it could help!
