A good friend of mine, Craig Garber (kingofcopy.com), ran this head line recently.(I stole it)
Truth is, it really got me thinking…..Am I a part of the problem or the solution?
That’s the easiest question I’v had to answer in a long time.
I AM THE SOLUTION! … or at least my mind set IS THE SOLUTION!
Sound arrogant??……too bad cuz it’s the truth.
MAKE IT YOUR TRUTH!
So what are the problem(s)???….where do I start……
Gas prices are up, house prices are down, food and cost of living is up, oil is changing the world, the sky is falling and a giant meteor is headed towards the earth……..oh what to do.
So lets look at just one of these closer……the mind set and the solution are the same for all.
Gas prices- think there too high?
Yea, me too but ya know what, I’m not going to worry about them.
Why? Cuz I cant do CRAP about the price of gas ..PERIOD!
My solution: first, not to worry about stuff I cant change.
Second, identify areas I may be able to cut back gas usage….frivolous usage. (No, Im not trading in my monstrous SUV for a go cart or a moped) Frivolous is taking my suburban to get the mail at the mail box….I’ll walk next time.
Third, and most importantly, Im going to create a plan to increase my income many times greater than the ridiculous additional increase in gas cost.
What Im not going to do is bitch and WHINE about the problem. If you are bitching and whining, you have become part of the problem.
Your whining is contagious and spreads like a PLAGUE. That BS attitude needs to be EXTERMINATED.
Worse than that, it does not produce SOLUTIONS.
What to do?
Identify what your can change and what you can not change
The stuff that you can not change, come to terms with it and LET IT GO.
If you cant change it, focusing on it(worrying) only makes the problem BIGGER and waste your precious time.
The stuff you can change you have two choices. Create a plan and commit to changing it or, admit your not willing to change it and LET IT GO.
Finally, focus the majority of you prime time on INCOME PRODUCING ACTIVITIES. These are activities that specifically work towards INCREASING YOUR INCOME and that you are in COMPLETE CONTOLL OF. (more on
PRIME TIME and income producing activities this next week)
Bottom line, the cost of living may be going up by 10 or 15%…..for the most part, you cant change that.
You can however, CHANGE YOUR INCOME.
Shoot for 15% minimum….all your (financial) problems just went away……. 20% and life is getting fun again.
The minute you stop looking out the window for solutions , dependence , and start looking in the mirror, INDEPENDENCE, you have become part of the SOLUTION.
Welcome to the winners side!
Remember, out mighty country , THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, was built and founded on INDEPENDENCE!
Next week we are going to look at the absolute single most important ingredient to increasing you income FAST…..and ANYONE ANYWHERE IN ANY PROFESSION can do it!
As far as that problem with the meteor hurling towards the earth…….Ill leave that up to OBAMA to fix….he seems to have the solution to everything else . 
To your absolute OUTRAGIOUS SUCCESS,
YOU GUYS ROCK!
