Johnson Volume
I, Issue 6 Welcome to the OK-EZine! Presented here are ideas, concepts, strategies and tactics for those ready to embrace the New, the Daring and the Possibilities. Feedback is always welcome. Please send all comments to timj@notimelost.com. Positive and Negative are welcome. Who are three people who would like to read this EZine? Please pass it along to them. If you have received it from a friend, formal subscribe and unsubscribe information is at the end of the message. CONTENTS: 1.)
Power Thought 1.) Power Thought - Analysis vs. Action Far too often we let ourselves over analyze things and we get that old "Paralysis of Analysis". We fear that things may go wrong, badly or fail and are frozen in inaction. What we forget is that inaction itself leads to things going wrong, badly or failing. Taking action may lead there as well, but only maybe. Inaction ONLY leads to failure. Take direct marketing for instance, or any sales work. Someone who is afraid to make phone calls or do the follow-ups fears the rejection and failure of the NO. I know how that feels and used to feel that way too. What I found out was that by just doing the calls and follow-ups you create positive energy and momentum. Soon you have a fair amount of people in various stages of the prospecting and selling process. When this happens, you no longer have to fear the calls and follow-ups because there is always the next step to move people to. Always something to do. I think what we fear is failing and then not knowing what to do next. Our Analysis prefers the POTENTIAL failure over the possibility of not know what to do next. We would rather procrastinate than fail because we can always delude ourselves into thinking we are in the game this way. The ONLY way to be in the game is to stop all the analyzing and take action. Doesn't matter what the action is. An imperfect plan begun today is far superior to a perfect plan begun tomorrow. 2.) Recommended Resource - The Local Library Huh? What kind of recommendation is that? One of the best. It's free, contains vast stores of knowledge, training, skills, audios, videos and personal help, yet only something like 3% of the US even has a library card. And it's FREE. I do free. Do you? Where else can you get some of the best PMA and Success Tools available, all for free and a quiet place to read and research them? 3.) Featured WebSite - SuccessNet.org I received a note about this one in an email a couple of days ago. It is a site that has a pretty large amount of resources and an email training course. There is a reduced access free membership and a full access Gold Membership for $39 a year. From what I have seen there, the $39 is well worth it. The content seems pretty broad and deep as well as of a decent quality. 4.) Main Article - Status Check If you have been reading these EZines from the start, you have been treated to a lot of material. Let's do a review and see what we have learned and maybe where we should be. If you are new to the EZines, go to http://www.notimelost.com/index.htm and click on EZine Archives on the left. You can read all the past EZines there. We looked at what an Opportunity is, where it is, getting ready for opportunity, your frame of reference and reinforcing new beliefs. The last six weeks were designed to get you out of old habits and to start recreating how you see the world. This is absolutely, 100% key to actually DOING something about all these opportunities out there. Think about where you were before you started reading this EZine and doing (you are doing, right?) the suggested exercises. Has your attitude and mindset changed? Do you see things differently? Do you notice things you didn't notice before? Do you see yourself in a different light? In short, do you SEE and BELIEVE the possibilities? If not, please go back and reread the Main Articles in each EZine and do the suggested exercises. Or if you can see where you are not "there", then work on that specific part. This is critical to the next phase we will be talking about. You see, you have the theory and mindset stuff down now, but it doesn't, and never will, mean squat unless you take action. This is where most people stumble with self-help books, tapes and programs. They get the theory and ideas but have absolutely NO IDEA WHAT TO DO WITH THEM! Not here. Not on my watch. And not if I can help it. This is WAY too important to leave to Chance. When you leave your fortune to Chance, Chance will take it every time. Starting next week, we are going to look at how to get started down the road to success. We will go over creating your Vision of your future, goal-setting and creating an Action Plan. These will be brief descriptions and tutorials. Our website (http://www.notimelost.com) will soon have full, online courses in each of these areas for an in-depth helping hand to get through this stuff. In the mean time do the following:
Keep the TV off! And if you haven't done any of the things we have talked about in recent EZines, now is the time to start! Thanks and God Bless. Tim Johnson
