Limiting Beliefs - How to Break Through the BarrierWritten by Petra Rankin
Continued from page 1
You can free yourself from chains and spikes in all areas of your life. Is there a situation you seem to find yourself in time and time again? Do you feel "stuck"? If so, pick one thing hat you feel could be holding you back from achieving success. That is a strong limiting belief. Chances are, just like elephant doubting its own strength, you are doubting your own ability. Try acting "as if" you don't have that belief any more, and see what kind of results you get. You just might surprise yourself! _______________________________________________ © 2005 Petra Rankin

Continued from page 1 So, what to do? Again, I did research. I found some very good alternatives which can break us from this cycle of dependence on selling our time. There are two ideas which really stood out. The first is to capitalize on next real commodity which we all posses. Knowledge is other real possession and everyone has it. There are things you know that I may be willing to pay money for. Let me give you an example using my situation. I've been a carpenter for 15 years. I know residential structure inside and out. There has been a growing trend in USA. In course of purchasing a home, buyer hires someone to inspect building for structural and mechanical deficiencies. That is my niche. I already possessed knowledge, I just needed to get licensed in my state and sell my knowledge. I am now building capital I will need to stop having to sell my time. Let me repeat that; Everyone possesses knowledge. People simply need to find their niche and capitalize on information exchange. I will write subsequent articles on this subject with ideas on how knowledge can be marketed. The second is to sell products. If you don't have products, relax. About 40 years ago a company came on scene which changed prospects for average citizens. This company introduced "affiliate" system of marketing products. The general idea is that an already existing company gives anyone who signs up opportunity to sell that company's products and make a very good commission on sale. But, it got better. The individual could also introduce other people to business opportunity , allowing them to sell company's products, in effect, sponsoring a sales person. The sponsor would also earn a commission on "their" sales person's sale. If you sponsored two people and each of them sold two products and you would earn a commission of 4 sales. That doesn't include your efforts. And best part is that some of better companies will give you training and support you need for free. Neither one of these will get you rich quickly. Both methods require some effort and some investment. These are, however two ways which I found can allow an average person, born to average parents, to become financially independent. This, in turn allows everyone to lead more fulfilling lives and to take care of that, which needs our most focused attention; people around us!
