Network Marketers seem to get a lot of negative reinforcement from all around them. The ones they love are saying things like, "why are you wasting your time and money on something you will never make money at" or "Your always working at that stupid business. When are you going to spent more time with me"? If that's not enough, their friends and strangers are telling them, NO over and over again. After combating the human elements of negativity, they face the statistical elements of negativity.  This includes battling the 97% failure statistic after 3 months of being in business.

This can real drain an individual and eventually even wear them out. After a month or two of hearing and seeing the negative feedback from their environment.  The negative thoughts start to build up and soon overwhelm them. They will start to believe the things they are hearing and buy into them. Then most will eventually quit and never try again. Network marketing isn't only about building a team and selling product/services. You will also need a strong mental game plan as well. A strong mental game plan is the most crucial part to your success in this industry. Without it, you won't last more then a few months. In order to stifle this negative thought process. You will need to incorporate auto-suggestion or A.K.A. positive self talk (PST). Auto-suggestion will help you in building your faith, stopping the negativity in it's tracks, getting rid of all the negative chatter in your head and allowing you to open the doors to your imagination and success.

In another article I talked about building your business with faith as the foundation. Well if faith in the foundation, then Positive Self Talk (PST) is the water and concrete mix. PST will make your faith grow and become a solid foundation. The way PST works is by repeating out loud a positive phrase over and over again. An example could be, "I will be a top income earner in XXX company by XXX date. I will do this through taking action everyday." When you repeat a statement like this everyday for month. Your mind begins to believe it as truth. A great example of this is when someone lies. When they tell a lie over and over again. Down the road they begin to believe it to be true. Then one day they only know it to be true.  By using this repeat technique to build your faith, and burning desire, your mind will begin to believe that it is true. When your mind and subconscious believe your burning desire to be true. The mind tells the body to go into motion to achieve it. Also when we believe something to be true. We will have the self confidence to make it happen.

Throughout the day you will be bombarded with negativity. It might be in the form of thoughts, people, situations or events. All of these forms of negativity will get into your mind and disrupt your positive mindset and vibrations. In turn causing your mind to be overwhelmed with negative thoughts. This leaves little room for the positive ones, which will cause your mind to spiral into negative mode. The negative spiral will in turn deteriorate your faith and motivation. This will stop the body from being in motion. Hence you become part of the 97% failure statistic. With PST you can stop the negative disruption and spiral, dead in it's tracks. There's only a limited amount of space in your mind. You have the choice to fill it with either negative thought or positive thought. By repeating a positive phrase, you will fill your mind with positive thoughts, leaving little room for the negative ones. Putting your mind back in a positive state of frame. It will consume your mind with positivity, hence positive action. This will allow you over time to stop the negative invasion and chatter in your mind.

Stopping the negative chatter in your mind is very important to your success. When you learn to stop the chatter. You will notice positive reinforcement in your life. One of the reinforcements you will notice is you will start to sleep better at night. This allows you to keep a sharp and clear mind, which will allow you to focus more on your burning desire. You will also notice the tendency of self sabotaging yourself to decrease and even disappear. Another positive reinforcement you will notice will be more and more doors of opportunity opening. Also more and more people flocking toward you with the same interest and goals, willing to help you. This will help you create a mastermind group.

When you have finally controlled your mind and body and cleared it of all and an negativity by using PST. Your mind will open the doors to your imagination. Imagination is what built this great nation of ours. Without the negative chatter and clutter in your mind. You mind will not be consumed and distracted an more. It will also not be stressed and conflicted. This will give your brain the opportunity and time to daydream more often. Also the creative side of your imagination functions better when relaxed and focused.

In conclusion, PST will allow you to build your faith, mental toughness and business stronger. It will also help your mind focus at a more precise level on anything you what to achieve. It will allow you to finely tune every thought and desire. In turn helping you defeat all of the odds in succeeding. Here's to your success.
