1)
Listening to People Who Have Never Succeed.
Amazing.People that have never really succeeded at anything in their life suddenlybecome the authority on Success, and try to talk you out of this wonderfulindustry. Do NOT let that happen, as that is like listening to a garage mechanicwhen you have a serious heart problem- or a tree farmer when you have need of surgery- or vice versa.Listen to those who have done it and are willing to help you.
2) Talking About Last Year Constantly.
Folks- last year is OVER. MOVE ON. Do NOT dwell in the past. It is history.LEARN from the past- but do not live in it. It simply is too damaging to your dreams in 2009.The secret to succeeding during hard times is keeping you and your prospects-FORWAARD FOCUSED. Keep them looking toward where you are TAKINGTHEM- not what has already taken them.
3) Saying You are Going to Keep Trying.
THAT is a mistake as trying in network marketing and is bound for mediocrity andwill never be anything except the language for the failure. There is no TRY- it iseither ENGAGE- to not. It is either TAKE ACTION or not in 2009. If you take
 
action saying “I am going to try,” then what you are really saying is “I am going togive half hearted effort and see what happens.”How about- “I am going to hit this one out of the park in 2009- na matter whatanyone says. I am finished trying- I am now in the Triumph Mode!”People will FEEL that from you- and respond accordingly. People follow winnersand Leaders.
4) Talking to the Same Market.
Get out of your comfort zone in your market- and go find some people you don’tknow and change their lives. Quit talking with people in the same mindset aseveryone else that has told you NO. Get out- interrupt your pattern you havedeveloped- and start a new one. Get Uncomfortable- as that is the secret toSuccess in a Home Business. Talk to people you do not know to stretch your possibilities and grow your skills.Hold 2 Conversations a day with NEW people you do not know. CONNECT withthem in the social media arena, or out in the grocery store. Now you are talking awealth mindset.The 2 Most important 2 words in 2009:
“New Conversations.” 
5) Continuing using the Same language as last Year.
Many people will continue to talk themselves out of this business. They willcontinue to say, “I hope this works,” “Well, I will see what happens,” “I am just notgood at this.”WRONG! You are GREAT at this!Release that part of you deep inside. Quit talking the language of the Mediocreand putting yourself down. When you do that, unknowingly, you are programmingyourself for that to happen.Change your language- and focus. Start focusing on what you are going toSUCCEED at. Start talking your “Success Language.” “This year is going to bethe best year of my life- and my business is going to be INCREDIBLE- no matter what recession happens. I am going to show people how to thrive during it.”
6) Going the Same Places as Last year.
Change your locations that you do business this year. WHAT??? I LOVE Mygrocery store. Great. Just go to a different one for some frozen food and startnew conversations with people you do not know.
 
This year your Huge Success will be hidden in conversations that you were afraidto Start.
7) Thinking You are a Part Time Distributor or Consultant.
You are in a part time wealth vehicle. And you are NOT just a part time rep. Youare working a secondary business that will give you this year your primaryincome. (READ THAT AGAIN.)If you just got that- then people will start feeling something totally different in your words- and start responding in a different manner as well.
 You have to leave your kids and family to work this business as it needsto be worked.
Wrong. You do NOT have to constantly leave your life and go and work thisbusiness leaving your family behind. That is a formula for stress and guilt. Youwork this business as you live your life. You take it with you. You leave it behindwith people. You let it talk while you do what you do when you are living your life.It is called ‘Lifestyle Marketing.” You live your lifestyle and work your business asyou do. Let off the pressure and guilt. Live your life- and take your business withyou and talk to people as you are out and about. Talk to people about who theyknow. Talk to people about how you love your secondary business- as it isportable and flexible.Much better. People will be thinking, ” Now, I can do THAT!”
9) Following Up, and NOT Following Through.
Most people do not know this, but when you think “follow up,” you are totallyagenda driven and people FEEL that in your words and in your actions. It has a “Iwant something” tone to it.A “Follow through” is a shift- and it is not wanting something- but COMPLETINGsomething. And psychologically, people will respond to that in a much morepowerful fashion. We taught that to our Leaders for years- and they ‘got it.”The secret to Tiger Woods’ mind boggling golf game- according to him- is hisFollow Through. If your follow through is great, everything before it worked too.He COMPLETES the golf swing- not just takes one.Follow through has a whole different feel to the prospect than follow up. If you dothat, you will see what I mean. People LOVE the Feeling of someone completingsomething.
