Unemployment reaches 10% in California...
Foreclosures are at an all-time high...
The housing market is down 35%...
Let me ask you something: how do you feel about all of the headlines these days? Are you using this as your newest excuse for not going out to meet people? Or not to purchase things that you really desire that will improve your life?
Do you know what I've discovered? This is something that I really believe: the economy is not really as bad as we say it is - the economy is only as bad as we think it is because most of you are buying into the hype.
It's that poverty mentality. It's all of you saying to yourselves, "Well, I may still have a job but the economy is bad right now, and I'm not going to do the things I want to do. I'm going to wait for the economy to get better. I'm going to wait for President Obama to tell me that the economy is better."
In reality, you have to start taking charge of your own economy. You are your own government.
Do you still have a job? Are you safe at your job? Does your job still pay you what it did last year? Are you managing your bills like you always have? Are you paying things on time? Are you buying things you can afford?
The economy keeps getting worse because the people who find themselves in a good financial situation (which is 90% of us!) stop spending money and push the economy into a further funk.
And this becomes your new excuse. It's unbelievable. As humans, we are always looking for excuses not to progress. We come from a fear-based society.
So let me ask all of you a question today. How is the economic downturn REALLY affecting you? And be honest - are you really just using it as an excuse?
Life is all about mindset. What you believe is what you are going to attract. And if you have a poverty mindset, you're going to be the next one fired during these poor economic times. If you truly believe that the world is coming to an end, it will.
I don't believe that the world is coming to an end. My business is fine. I love my clients. Money comes in, people buy products and come to bootcamps, and I give it my all.
But it really amazes me how many people have that poverty consciousness - they're watching every last dime thinking that it will actually be their last dime.
You attract exactly what you are. You have to understand that life is about abundance. If you live an abundant lifestyle, you'll have an abundant lifestyle. I'm not talking about going out there and spending more money than you make - I think that's ridiculous.
But the "doom and gloom" people - which a lot of you are - tend to really think that life is going to come to an end.
Do you remember Y2K? How many of you thought that the world was going to come to an end when the clock struck midnight, bringing in the year 2000? How many of you actually believed that everything would go haywire? That you wouldn't be able to get your money out of the bank? That things wouldn't work anymore?
I knew a person during that time that actually quit his job, moved to the mountains of Arizona and traded all of his money for gold because he was afraid of leaving his money in the bank. This is the same thing all over again. People buy into the "doom and gloom" because they live in a world full of fear and excuses.
What would you rather live in: a world of abundance and positive energy or a world based on fear?
For those of you who have never checked out my No Excuses and Self Love audio programs, I think it's time you do. And by the way, if you don't like it, you can return it within 90 days. I truly believe that you're going to love it - because I practice abundance all of the time!
