The words are the enemies of success?
Yes there are 3 WORDS that are the enemies of success. Now you are probably wondering how can that be… It is actually quite simple to explain.
The WORDS you say reflect what you THINK. What you THINK affect how you FEEL and how you FEEL shows in your current results.
Results are how you are living your life, how are you in relation to money, health or relationships. So you see words can be very powerful and we should be using more empowering words and see how everything will start changing drastically.
Watch the video below and see what are those 3 words and how they might be impacting your life right now.
It strange that the words you are using could be causing you to STAY STUCK in your business… In the video I mention my 10 day Free Attraction Marketing Boot Camp. So we said that the way we feel matters and it impacts the results we see. So what about a traditional way we are told to grow are business: make a list, call everyone on that list, do what you can to get them on a 3 way call and then close them.
Does this approach truly MAKE YOU FEEL GOOD about the way you are growing your business? It doesn’t. Every marketer I know gets to the point of burn out at some point because it is always an uphill battle. Not to even mention how hard it is to duplicate and make your team do this.
When you think about it, if someone starts a traditional business, is the first thing they do make a list of a 100?? Of course it isn’t. So in the Attraction Marketing way there’s none of this. It is authentic way with no hidden agendas, it is transparent AND most importantly you really love what and how you do it.

Why do we procrastinate?
It is very much related to the 3 words we will be talking about, and they are a major reason why we put things off an are not motivated to take action towards our goal. Whatever reason we attach to it, we basically give ourselves a pass. “Oh it’s ok, you tried your best, maybe this is not for you, you’ll do better next time”….
We are the worst accountability partner to us. It is also engraved deep in your subconscious mind because your parents probably told you these things growing up to protect you.
And we are so good about convincing ourselves WE CAN’T DO SOMETHING. For example digital marketing. The thing is, in order to grow, you need to get uncomfortable, seek answers, be resourceful. It doesn’t matter if you are young or old, computer savvy or not… what matters is are you willing to do what it takes.
3 words that are the biggest enemy of success
1. Overwhelm
Overwhelm state is a state of confusion. You feel like your plate is full and have so much to do, so much going on, yet you don’t do anything. The way to overcome this is to become more resourceful. For example I see this in coaching programs, where people put all responsibility to help them and solve their problems on their coach or mentor.
Sometimes their next step is just a google search away. Always be proactive, try to figure it out, and you will.
2. Frustration
Frustration is the second one. When you are frustrated you cannot be coachable. And even if someone is trying to help you, they cannot access through to you. Frustration leads to anger and when you are in the state of anger you cannot make rational decisions, you cannot take in information.
Think about a possible solution to whatever is going on. Is it in your control or is it completely out of your control. There’s no point being frustrated about the weather for example, there’s nothing in our control we can do to change it.
A good way to get out of frustration is to be grateful. Look for something good in every situation no matter how hard it may seem. Looking for a good outcome brings more good outcomes.
3. Confusion
No decision can be made in the state of confusion. Confusion is our third word that’s an enemy of success. Nothing can be created in the state of confusion. The key is to push through and do the uncomfortable work that is needed.
In the coaching programs I’m a part of, I always hear from at least one person that is always all three of these. They are overwhelmed, frustrated and confused and because of that aren’t taking any action. They are waiting for other people to do the work for them. Here is the thing. You have to overcome what’s hard.
Confusion is fear’s quiet cousin.
Did you know one of my mentors Kate McShea had a fear of doing live videos. But she did them anyway and now is teaching video marketing to our whole profession.
Another example is Ray Higdon, a network marketing coach. He was terrified of public speaking and when his boss asked him to do a small presentation in front of her and like 5 other co-workers, he was so nervous that he spilled water all over his shirt. His boss even asked him if he was on drugs. And he went on to become one of the most sought out speakers.
Another thing is DON’T COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS!
You are all on a different journey and a different part of that journey. Always stay in your lane. Focus on becoming better than who you were yesterday.
When one of my team leaders Sharon told me something that stuck with me. We were talking about one very successful trainer and she told me: “you can be like her”. That stuck with me. I have a vision of myself in the future and I’m running towards her while she’s running towards me too.
“But I’m not an influencer”
I disagree with that. You are always a few steps ahead than someone else. Teach and share how you overcame things. Share who you were and who you are now. That is enough. No need to exaggerate anything. Be your authentic you.
No matter how successful you are, never forget and never stop sharing your struggles, pains, things you overcame. That is the most interesting and valuable part of your story. This is where you make a connection, a click and make them relate to you and get inspired.
Digital marketing is the future
I couldn’t agree more that digital marketing is the future. Don’t wait, now it’s time to invest time and possibly money to learn it. More and more marketers will want to build their business online and they also want to AUTOMATE as much as they can to create that true time freedom.
That’s why I recommend my FREE Attraction Marketing Boot Camp. You can grab it by clicking the button below.
