The key to success in any business begins with the mindset. How you perceive success is ultimately how you will project success. Bishop Eddie Long once said that "you are living the vision for your life". I tell my clients that if you don't like the visual of your life, then change the vision. Whatever your mindset is will ultimately be reflected in your lifestyle.
Another term used to describe this methodology is "Belief Behavior". Belief Behavior is simply the act of living out your thought life or mindset. Your actions are totally predicated on what lies in your core belief system. In order to grow, you must develop growth in your core belief system. Your information has to increase. The amount of repetitions with the new information has to increase. Everything has to increase mentally so that your mind is able to see clearly the new vision for your life! Once you are able to see the vision clearly, you are now able to implement it into your mindset. Once it becomes a part of the mindset, you will carry your mindset out through your actions. That is belief behavior at it's finest!
Growth is such a key component in business building. Everyone in the organization must commit to it in order to see the change it desires. From the CEO down, growth has to be viewed as a mandate in order to maintain success. If you are in a MLM, as a leader of your organization you must be of the growth mindset in order to keep your business alive. Once you, or any member of your organization stops growing, prepare your business's eulogy.
Remember, leaders are learners. Without the increase of knowledge, wisdom, and understanding in your mindset, it is impossible to experience growth. Your business may experience some influx of cash, but if you don't have the mindset to grow and maintain it, that too will soon be lost. While building your mindset, make it a priority to grow so that you will be able to experience success in your organization as well as you personally.
May your day and your life be totally empowered!

| Mindset Building: Your Mental Health systemposted by A.M. Williams, MemberThursday, July 9th 2009 @ 5:03 PM (1 ratings) |
This past Sunday I was blessed to hear a prolific message on the importance of Health. The scriptures tell us that God says "above all things I wish that you prosper and be in good health, even as your soul prospers." This scripture has always encouraged me to believe that God, our heavenly father, has always wanted nothing less than the best for us, His children!
What I recently came to understand is how prosperity and good health work together. In order to properly illustrate this, we have to utilize the paradigm of "mindset building".
The Word says "prosper, even as your soul prospers..." That would imply that the first step to prosperity is mental health, or "soul prosperity". This is achieved through feeding our minds with what we need to grow. This feeding is identified as our mental diet. Any health physician will tell you that the key to good health is diet "and" exercise. Exercise allows us to turn food into fuel to help our bodies operate efficiently and eliminate waste. Well, when you exercise mentally, you allow your mind to operate the way it was intended to, while at the same time ridding itself from any wasteful or toxic thoughts that may lie within.
Mental exercise is achieved by identifying objectives, setting goals, strategic planning, and execution. Once you have the right information (food) that you need, you can effectively lay out your work plan for success! By listing your goals and objectives, you give your mind the opportunity to create a clear mental picture of what your success looks like. From that, you are able to create an activity board filled with daily, weekly, and monthly tasks. This is what is identified in the gym as repetitions. Repetitions increase muscle strength for the body to ultimately protect it from sickness and disease. You could eliminate "stinking thinking" by simply properly conditioning your mind. This regiment is not just mindset building, it's your mental health system!
It is important to understand that diet without exercise, or vice-versa, will not produce good health. Eating good alone will only produce waste. Exercising without a proper diet will make the body fatigue because it doesn't have the "fuel" it needs to operate proficiently. And so it is true with the mind. Feeding yourself with training materials (I.e. books, tapes, cd's) alone will not give you good mental health. You "must" exercise, or apply that information in order to become successful.
Good health comes from soul prosperity. Soul prosperity is also internal prosperity. Internal prosperity produces external prosperity. External prosperity is not only material possessions, but it is mainly the manifestation of our dreams (mental objectives).
Success is achieved by first understanding that it it is God's wish that we be successful by prospering and being in good health, even as our soul prospers. Outward success comes from inward prosperity. Inward prosperity is good health. Good health comes from soul prosperity. And soul prosperity comes from a strong and balanced mental health system! This is mindset building at it's finest!
May your day and your life be totally empowered!
