Don’t Reason It Out….Work it out!

The battle is in our minds, …… Oh! I’m sorry did you just ask “What battle?”

To answer let me regress for a moment. Large numbers of people all around this world and most certainly in ours live way below their potential. People who have been trained NOT to “dream”, not to be “silly” and not to “try to be something they are not”! I know that I got it, and sadly have to say my own Son has had it too. It starts when we are very young. Whenever we begin the real adventure of living, you know, things like crawling and touching things, eating them or throwing them. The pressure comes….and it sounds strangely like NO! and from then on it is relentless – the pressure to CONFORM to be what others want you to be or to do. It follows on through our school years and forever more in our work and social worlds.



Have you ever wondered why there is so few really high achievers? I was always led to believe that that’s just the way it is. Most people are normal and sort of mimic one another in their varied lives but it is because the others are sort of special that they do what they do and it’s not meant for the madding crowd. They are gifted in this way or that, they have been given an opportunity that the rest of us don’t get, they are highly intelligent and so forth and so on and it goes on like that?

I have come to understand that it is truly a misconception. God has created each one of us uniquely and with gifts and talents that combined make us a one of a kind. The reality is that most Entrepreneurs don’t have a great education when they embark on their journey. They aren’t given a “golden spoon” when they turn sixteen and they don’t have it all laid out for them. Statistically I believe that it is just the opposite. So what is it that causes these people to stand above the rest ?

PASSION! More commonly spoken of in the context of love and relationship, it is a powerful motivator that drives us to perform often way above the norm surprising others and even sometimes ourselves. It is this passion that is quenched in so many through the dream robbing, adventure taking language & circumstances of our lives. The men and women that rise above it are the ones that refuse to listen to the hollow mumblings of others and most acutely lay their hopes and desires on the right voice within that says “You can do it!”, ‘Never give up!” “You have the authority to make it happen!” (for after all, it is your life and nobody else’s) “You have a dream to fulfil!” and the ‘passion’ that is constantly stirred like the coals of fire as it is prodded and turned.

No! it is not because the achievers are so gifted or have received a rosy life on a platter. It’s because they have listened to a different voice, they have refused to let circumstances, negativity or others with good intentions move them from the dream that they carry with them. You see, reasoning will stop us from achieving the dreams we have but if we hold on to the dream, reinforce our ability to achieve and work at it. … That’s when the spectacular happens!

So my friend, don’t reason it out. Often it is unreasonable ….. Work it out! Dig deep within and stir the passion for the dream and make it happen. Keep the embers glowing by seeing, thinking & confessing your success. This is how the High achievers do it, the 3%’s. They don’t listen to reason but speak the dream and act the dream into existence. No matter what it is you want to achieve, whether it be a start up MLM Franchise, a Top Tier Marketing Business or something else it is required of you to first get your thinking right in line with your heart, and then see what you can do to make it happen.
