Making Entrepreneurs Rich and Happy

It has been said that the definition of insanity is doing the same things over and over and expecting different results. Yet, that is exactly what happens quite often at this time of year.

Most of us start the year with so many great ideas and ideals. We crave change and achievement and forward progress.

Sadly, by the first of February many of our desires have gone by the wayside and we are back to our old habits.

If you are serious about getting different results this year, you’re going to have to change.

Change doesn’t start with your actions. Change starts with your thoughts and beliefs.

A SEAL Team PT friend of mine posted this on her Facebook wall today,

“The only thing standing between you and your goal is the bullsh** story you keep telling yourself as to why you can’t achieve it!”

This comes from a single mom who, in the last two years, has lost over 120lbs and is now running the NYC half marathon.

What stories do you tell yourself? Are they stories of success or are they excuses you use to maintain the status quo?

What are stories are you telling yourself for 2012? I’d love to hear them! Leave them in the comments below and share them with the world!

Stay tuned each week for more tips and ideas on how to make this year your most passionate, profitable and productive!
