Mindset is essential to running a business offline or online. I read or listen to an hour a day to some type of mindset material. Nothing really my favorite, I just jump around from author to author.

I try to listen to Stephen Richards "Ultimate Wealth Creation" and Paul McKenna "I Can Make You Rich" on a daily basis while working. Being a bit of a non-believer in such things but realising I needed to change my situation I thought I'd give it a try. It's early days but I can feel my mentality has changed and have set myself goals to start making money. I would definately recommend Stephen Richards but the Paul McKenna one is a book with audio hypnosis and is good too.

Good luck!

I like listening to audios from all the greats: Jim Rohn, Les Brown, Brian Tracey, Zig Ziglar, Robin Sharma, Bob Proctor...

I find meditating also helps me personally, just to get focused, zen out from all the business crazyness and just relax!

Yes audio and video has a way of keep our minds focused on what we need to do to achieve our goals.. Earl Nightingale was one of the first to really get involved with distribution of motivational tapes back then.... Now there are so many great leaders that provide us all with any type of information we need...

When I first got started I lived, ate and breathed the usual suspects that Preeti listed, but these days I get more out of autobiographical and "here's what I had to do to make it" type stories and books.

However, I still spend the first hour of the day self-talking my way through my agenda for the day and committing myself to the "Five Laws of Stratospheric Success."

That's from the Go-Giver for those who are interested.

I spend the second hour in prayer and bible study.

That's my mindset foundation. Everything else is icing on the cake.

Thank you Chris, l fully understand the power of the above, one can never question it. Self talk is an important step that l also do each and everyday, l found it to relax and motivate me to remember of the tasks l need to achieve.

It is amazing how effective this works when l use it my life is so much more balanced....

Mind set is important but not so much in the way most people think.

Your posture...how you think about yourself and the value of your
service and the language you use to communicate that...is critical
to getting hired at more substantial fees.

Most people telegraph that they're struggling to get clients, that
they're willing to work cheap...that they're desperate.

The people who communicate that they're busy, their time is
valuable, that they don't need any particular client will get hired
more often at much higher fees.

Kindest regards,

Mind-set is very important to any work one does. Either you have it or you don't. Doesn't mean you can't cultivate it like a fine garden though. So, obviously, if you don't feel you have it to the degree you desire it: in the words of John Carlton, . . ."get thee to the Library, the book store, the WWW." Then become an expert in having the correct mind-set that matches your desires. It can be done! It has been done! And, . . . It will keep being done.
