I just got back from Sant Qiu’s ‘Speed to Wealth’ workshop. Wow! He did share a lot on his Marketing Strategies. All I can say is that his workshop has changed my mindset of doing business.
Doing Business (or whatever you do) right, is a matter of mindset. What is business to you affects how you go about doing it… or not.
I’ve realized that before attending the workshop my mindset for business wouldn’t bring me far at all.
You may have heard of this many times, your [Beliefs/Mindset] affects your [Actions] which ultimately affects your [Results].
Our beliefs have certain limits. All of us have our own ‘Limiting Beliefs’.
Some of people's limiting beliefs of business include (* represents my initial limiting beliefs):
- Need $ to do business and profit from it (no $ = destined to have no $)
- * Profiting from business takes a long time
- * Doing business is a long process
- Building a business is buying a big ticket and risks will be there
- * Therefore, I need to understand A LOT about business to do it right
- The list goes on…
Our beliefs directly equate to the size of our comfort zones. We can’t blame people when they tell us all sorts of reason on why we shouldn’t go into business. Because the truth and matter is that those are their beliefs.
Reason why Sant’s workshop was called ‘Speed to Wealth’ is because he believes that one can start profiting right away! Also that anyone could possibly do it if they’re willing to learn how to!
Now I know some of you might be scratching your heads now asking how is it possible?
Well I’d say this is normal, and if you feel annoyed because you can’t figure out, better still! Because right now you are stepping out of your comfort zone by asking yourself questions that challenge your beliefs/mindset!
And I tell you if they hang in there (your mind) long enough you would eventually figure them out!
You see, I think in order to succeed in whatever we do; we must open up our minds to the possibilities. Once you are opened to them you are more receptive to the information you receive. Because what matters most isn’t if the information would make you uncomfortable or not nor if you are getting the real deal or not.
We don’t even know what we need to know!
What matters most is how you manipulate the information, discerning from them what is right and works for you. It’s the process of understanding.
It’s common for people to want to have instant gratification but we mustn’t neglect the fact that it’s gonna be a process and definitely there will come challenges. Most people fail to understand this. Once they feel uncomfortable they back off.
It’s only if we…
- Open Up and [ACCEPT] information,
- start to Learn and [ADOPT] them and then
- Understand, [ADAPT] and Practice, giving the information life
…should we truly succeed in life. Once you truly understand success you’ve already succeeded.
This is what Sant calls the A³ Fomular.
A chance to step out of our comfort zone… priceless, therefore embrace it =)
Here’s a simple exercise for today’s topic =D
Write down specifically:
1. 3 things you want to achieve in the year 2007
Let go of your limitations and list them out. Go ahead!
2. What’s your own list of limitations?
Now bring them out again
3. How you need to change to deal with them?
What’re the steps of solutions?
Now with all that done comes the fun part. Cancel off your list of limitations until you can’t see them. What are you left with now?! Yep! Your goals, and the steps to achieve them (Cool huh!). Stick to your goals and Focus on the solutions, not your limiting beliefs and you will find yourself breaking free from the bondage.
Impossible isn’t really that impossible now isn't it?
After all it is spelled [I’m possible]Labels: business, mindset, success
