The 3 P's To Success - By Terry Poster

Hello everyone, I hope everyone is enjoying their summer so far and everything is coming together with your business. I was thinking the other day about some of the key ingredients one must use to succeed in our business and ironically most of them seemed to start with the letter P. I want to share 3 of those with you today.

First and foremost I believe is PASSION. You have to love what you are doing and why you are doing it. You have to love your product and that must ooze out of you day in and day out. It must be easy for you to talk about and share. You have to live it and think about it day and day out. Your business must really be a part of you. It must seem like second nature, like the hours fly by when you are involved in it.

If this is how it feels for you, you are definetly in the right business. If you dread sitting down at your desk, making those phone calls, sending those emails, getting on those conference calls. Then you might want to look at another business or job. People that have the most success in this industry, jump out of bed and can't wait to get at it. They can't wait to tell others about how their life has been changed by their amazing product and/or service. This is crucial.

Second, you need patience. Success rarely happens overnight. When you find the right business stick with it. Make adjustments, seek advice, but don't give up. You should give your business your all for at least 18 months before you decision to quit or put your efforts elsewhere. Too many people quit without realizing a simple adjustment here or there or gaining advice from someone who had been through something similiar would have got them over the hump. Worse yet, they quit when they were so close to turning it around. Think Patience.

Third, is Perserverance. You are going to have good days and bad days, but that is life. You can't know good without bad and vice versa. Look at your business as a growing process. Just think of what you will become by perservering and experiencing all the successes and failures. This experience will make YOU so much more.

I have a sign on my office wall here that reads "Any Dream Worth Having, is a Dream Worth Fighting For." Dream BIG, practice the 3 p's daily. Prosper.

God Bless,
