Have you heard word "NO" a few times in your business?Maybe you heard it while you were in planning stages, just
developing your business idea and your business plan. Possibly,
some people very close to you said "No, you can’t do that." Or,
"No, you shouldn’t do that."
Perhaps, it was after you got your business started and you
asked someone to take a look at it and give you their opinion.
They might have said "No, that will never work." Or, "No,
that’s not for me."
According to PSYCHOLOGY TODAY, by time a child
reaches 18 years of age, concept of "NO, YOU CAN'T!"
has been reinforced 187,000 times, whereas concept of
"YES, YOU CAN!" has been reinforced only about 25 times!!!
Do you see why so many of us grow up to be failures, or
afraid to try anything out of "norm"? It’s because we
have been programmed that way! We do not believe that we can!
Can you imagine how much greater we would all be if we
just heard word "YES" a little more in our lives?
If you are in business or planning a business, I suggest you
just scratch word "NO" from your vocabulary. Just refuse
to hear it and start hearing word "YES", even if it’s only
in your own mind.
"YES, I can do this!"
"YES, I can do this exceptionally well!"
"YES, no one has ever done it better!"
You are going to have discouraging times in your business.
I don’t care who you are or what you do, there will be
hundreds (thousands) of times that you will want to quit.
Just throw in towel. Go back to your NORMAL life,
in your NORMAL job, with your NORMAL friends, in
