There are many reasons why people miss-out on great opportunities, not only as an expert network marketer but in ever walk of life, online and off and procrastination is the number one cause! When an opportunity arises, they evaluate, they consider, they ponder and simply procrastinate until the opportunity is gone. Out of site out of mind as the old saying goes. Why do people do that to themselves?
They procrastinate because… they lack confidence.
They procrastinate because… they fear failure.
They procrastinate because… they fear success.
They procrastinate because… they fear criticism.
They procrastinate because… they fear change.
They procrastinate because… they fear the unknown.
They procrastinate because… they fear risk.
Lost opportunities are caused by fear-based procrastination. Fear of one or more of the above conditions or perhaps other fears not mentioned here. One thing is for sure! Procrastination brought on by fear takes hold very quickly and the opportunity… is lost forever. The results of the process is usually the same and is predictable! Procrastination prevents success. Most people will let procrastination rule their lives and that is what prevents them from achieving great and wonderful things in their lives.
I suppose people are afraid they could fail or they may fear their decision might be the wrong decision! They are afraid of taking a chance! They are afraid they might not have the right stuff! They are afraid they will loose money! They are afraid their family and friends will ridicule them and on and on and on!
All of us, even the seasoned expert network marketer must continually be on guard against this powerful foe.
