ARE YOU HAVING A “MENTAL” RECESSION?

Yes – things are getting tougher out there. If you simply read your paper and watch the local newscasts you might be tempted to jump off the roof. Gas prices high. Home prices dropping like a rock. Stock market in the toilet. Harder to get credit. Foreclosures at all time highs.  Companies laying off people by the thousands.

I just finished reading the paper — and felt like I need to take a valium or prozac. Good thing I don’t have any– Nor do I need any?

WHY?

One of the big lessons I want to share with you today is how your thinking effects everything. AND how doing the opposite of what is normal is the BIG KEY to success in everything you do. I know it is counter-intuitive ( sorry for the big words here) but that is what usually works.. Just being different. It was one of those big discoveries that changed everything for me personally and financially.

Ready for the secret? Good cause here it is.. Please re-read it several times so it sinks in.

STOP CUTTING BACK AND START FINDING WAYS TO MAKE MORE

Sounds simple I know- But most of the BIG MILLION DOLLAR IDEAS I share here are. Doesn’t have to be complicated . It just has to work. So let’s dig in here and let me give you some real ideas.

You have only so much energy you can use in any one day , week, year. When you read the news it is natural to get nervous and even depressed. So you wind up spending that alloted amount of energy trying to figure out ways to cut back.  Ways to spend less money. Ways to conserve what you got.Plus all of the extra time and energy you spend just feeling down, depressed, worried and scared. I was going to say nervous but I think scared is probably more like reality -right?

NOW YOU COULD TAKE THAT SAME AMOUNT OF ALLOTED ENERGY AND…

try to figure out ways to make money. HERE IS A REALITY CHECK ! People are still making money. Some have waited years for just this type of economy and are making a big fat pile of money. Yes alot of it has to do with your mindset too. check out the book I read 2-3 times a year and give to all of my clients- it is called psycho-cybernetics  and you can find out more about it at  http://profitandwealth.com/category/profit-wealth-resources

I know from personal experience- About 7 years ago I was facing two BIG new expenses and my business was just doing ok.. not bad.. not great.  The first event was my mom needing to go into a nursing home which was going to cost 5000 per month. While I was digesting that I found out that my son who is dyslexic needed to go to a school that cost close to 30,000 per year.  My first reaction was OH SHIT ! NOW What do I do?

My wife quickly started freaking out and trying to figure out what we could cut back on it. To be honest , after my intial shock and mental paralysis wore off I started freaking out too. But we both quickly realized that even if we sold our house and cut back on everything else we were still not going to make it.. so we just needed to change the equation. BTW- We didnot live extravegently and still don’t – here is a side lesson–

NEVER LIVE ABOVE YOUR MEANS, NEVER EVEN LIVE AT YOUR MEANS.. ALWAYS LIVE SLIGHTLY BELOW

WE NEEDED TO FIND A WAY TO MAKE MORE MONEY – CONSISTENTLY

That was when I started my information marketing businesses. I was able to quickly build it to a multi-million dollar business in less than3 years and sell it for 7 figures. During this time I started several other multi-million dollar business and own intersets in almost 20million dollars worth of real-estate. I learned how to this from my mentor Bill Glazer and Dan Kennedy.  Here are the courses I used. http://www.whatiused.com and here is my story if you want to check it out .. http://www.brian.in12months.com

HERE ARE YOUR TAKEAWAYS -

1. Most of what determines your success or failure is mental attitude.

2. You can choose to hide under the desk and be totally paralyzed until the economy changes or you can be proactive and find ways to make more money— There is no shortatge.  In fact let’s just take a quick look at 2 people living within the same zip code in one town. One just lost their home to foreclosure and one is buying it and negotiating a short sale with the bank that could lead them to a six figure profit …. Main difference– Believe it or not — Is attitude.

3. Your biggest accomplishments will come when you are at your lowest – as long as your mind is in the right place. If I had not had those 2 BIG Financial Crises hit me at that time I would not be where I am today.. I would be a struggling loan officer figuring out how to cut back and taking my daily dose of ulcer medicine.

YEAH — I know– Easy for me to say.. Well I didn’t know anything about information marketing, coaching, consulting, commercial real-estate investing. GEEEZ ! I didn’t even know how to work a computer- So stop saying I had an advantage.. The only one I had was DESIRE and THE RIGHT MINDSET..  and you can too !

Now go figure out how to make more NOT spend less..
