Are You a Winner Or a Whiner?

Talk about loaded questions, but really, you need to know in order to succeed in your network marketing business.

In all honesty, I have to admit that there are times that I am a whiner. I feel that it is very easy to be the whiner and I have to stop listening to my "feelings" and make the mental decision to change my attitude and outlook. I have 3 young boys, that I home school. They are very active boys with very different personalities. Just taking care of them and our home is trying, never mind running a business too. It is not easy, but it can be done. So even though there are times that I want and feel like being a whiner, I choose to be a winner.

Let's look at a few differences between whiners and winners.

A whiner complains about not succeeding. She will place the blame on life, work, her family- basically anyone but herself.

A winner will sit and evaluate why she is not succeeding, come up with solutions and put them into place.

A whiner will demand help and act as if everyone "owes" it to her. She is not a team player.

A winner is a team player, she may ask for help, but she learns from it and shares that with others.

A whiner says"I can't... it's impossible"

A winner says "I will... or I'll find a way"

Now if you realize that you have been a whiner, then its not too late. The first step is making the decision to stop it and be a winner. Winners constantly surround themselves with positive influences. Negativity will only add to your negative feelings and thoughts. Take the time to feed your mind with positive and uplifting materials. There are a lot of good books and great music to listen to. Try to avoid negative people and activities. Replace them with positive influences and activities. Don't get hung up on all the problems and start working on the solutions. You'll find that the road to success is not as difficult if you have the right attitude.
