The mind is a powerful thing.  It can be utilized in many great ways, taught many great things and also fooled very easily too.  There are many things you can be doing “in your mind” that make you think you are working your business, when in fact, you are not working at all.

The easy ones are …

• Spending too much time on Facebook.  This is an effective business building tool IF worked properly, but most people waste time on it rather than build relationships – that’s a whole other post!
• Email … another time waster and not business builder.  The #1 goal of most people with email is to ELIMINATE it!  Think about how you read your email …. ‘Glance, glance, glance, delete, delete, delete and delete!”  Email is necessary and used to communicate and if used properly can grow your business.
• “Talking” about your business with others who are already in your business.  Sure, a necessary thing to do is to collaborate with associates, but rule that out of your “active business building activities”.

The above are common sense, however many confuse the above with actual “working” business time and activities.  Think about what activities produces you income?  In my profession, what makes me MONEY is one of 3 primary activities:

1. Meeting someone NEW and scheduling an appointment
2. Conducting an appointment and sharing my company, product and opportunity
3. Making phone calls with my existing contacts to either a) schedule a first-time appointment or b) a follow-up appointment to gain their business.

Keep success simple!  Find your 1-2-3 and work your business in reality, not just in your head.

To your continued success in your business and life every day,
