Your results are your own and determined by what you put in. How do you know that they even took the product out of the shrink wrap? Do you know if they properly trained themselves? Do you know if they treated it like a real business, or just simply “this thing they are doing.”Don’t inhale the smoke others blow. Their failure could have happened for all sorts of reasons.

Their failure has nothing to do with you.  ONLY YOU can determine your success or failure.  Don’t let others decide it before you even get started!?!

The other day, I attended a seminar where the speaker, multimillionaire Blake Mallen, said:

“You are either politicking or producing, but you can’t be doing both.”

Gossip or politics doesn’t get you any closer to your goals. Most of the time it keeps you from taking action and doing any real work. If you look at most true producers and achievers, they simply don’t have time, nor the desire to be a part of it. They are too busy creating value and taking steps towards advancement to care about whose dating who, or “showing” everyone how successful they are.

There are a lot of organizations where people get so caught up in the water-cooler gossip that they never produce any results in the process. They may be “in the know” or part of the “in” crowd, but usually no real production occurs from it. If you want to go after your goals, you must produce and leave the gossiping to the others that don’t really want success. What kind of a return does the drama between Sue and Charles produce?

You can either be politicking or producing, but you can’t be doing both.  Me… I’d rather have the results and the freedom those results produce.

“Failures are are like knives, that either serve us or cut us, as we grasp them by the blade or the handle.” –JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL

““No man is beaten until his hope is annihilated, his confidence gone. As long as a man faces life hopefully, confidently, triumphantly, he is not a failure; he is not beaten until he turns his back on life.” — ORISON SWETT MARDEN

FAIL … FAIL … FAIL …  FAIL BETTER…  I leave you with that!
