How To Overcome Resistance To Success

How to overcome resistance to success? How to overcome resistance to network marketing? Have you noticed that every time you come across a person or a program that you need; you know you need it because what you are doing now isn’t working, you suddenly put up the resistance shutters?

Funny how that happens. An opportunity comes calling in whatever shape and it’s your time to become successful yet you usually come up with some lame excuse not to pursue it. That folks is because resistance is talking to you.

Okay, if a voice inside your head tells you to jump off a 100 yard cliff then welcome resistance but it doesn’t work that way; that voice seems to be at it’s loudest every time we have the chance to be inspired to success and unless you recognize it and know how to defeat it, it will guarantee you stay where you are right now. If you’re happy with that, then that’s fine but I know most people dream of something better and the truth is, it’s up to you. It always has been.

We’ve spoken about self-sabotage lately and this is continuing on with the conversation. I have lost count of how many times resistance has beaten me. But the good news is you just need to defeat it once in your life to make a difference. That’s why some of the most successful people in whatever field in history have been successful later in life or after a long period of persistence.

Steven Pressfield wrote a book called “The War Of Art” and I highly recommend it. He wrote:

“Resistance will reason with you like a lawyer or jam a nine-millimeter in your
face like a stickup man. [It] has no conscience… if you take Resistance at its word,
you deserve everything you get.

“Resistance is always lying and always full of sh*t.”

That’s about it in a nutshell. So today a lesson from Stephen Pressfield. He talks about how to beat resistance in the following vide and talks about a concept of treating the things you do in life as a pro. Confused? It makes sense and this is only a short two minute message. It could totally change your fortunes against resistance.

That will be the best two minutes you’ve spent in front of a computer today if you have been battling resistance in the shape of that little voice in your head that always seems to be at it’s loudest when something comes along that could inspire you. Steven Pressfield makes a lot of sense. His latest book is called “Do The Work” and teaches success through actually doing the work.

I remember recently needing to put together a report for a client which I wasn’t looking forward to but it was worth a lot of money. I kept making excuses for putting it off. Then I got a severe sore throat and the deadline for the report was almost due. I used that pro approach. I wrote it reluctantly at first despite the pain but as I got through it I started to feel better. When I finished, I was on such a high that I didn’t even feel my sore throat. It was all but gone.

This is a topic that has cost me big time in the past and we’ll continue to look at it and ways to beat self-sabotage and resistance in future posts.
