Believe it or not, your mindset is more important than any of the knowledge you have. Henry Ford only had very limited formal education, but he had a desire and a mindset that actually forced him to achieve his goals. He is also the one that said, "Whether you think you can or think you can't you're right!"

Henry Ford's mindset created a completely new way for industry to create products and it could even be attributed to helping start the industrial revolution. Why? Simply because he had the desire to reach his goals and he wouldn't accept can't as an excuse.

If you are constantly using the word can't you are sure to find failure. You have to believe you can before you can. I like to define can't as:

C= Conveniently.

A= Accepting.

N= Negative.

T= Thoughts

Whenever you say you can't do something, you are conveniently accepting negative thoughts. There is always a way to achieve your goals.

It doesn't mean you can't do something just because you don't know how to do it

Just because no one has done it before doesn't mean you can't do it.

Just like you set your goals you need to create a mindset that gives you a burning desire to achieve your goals. All you goals can be achieved if you believe.

The most common excuse that I have heard used for Internet marketing purposes is, "I am a newbie!"

I know this doesn't sound like an excuse, but it is. Gary Ambrose pointed this out to me a couple of years ago. When you say you are newbie, you are using that as an excuse. The reason for this is that you never say I am a newbie unless you need an excuse.

Question: Do you have a website?

Answer: I don't have one I am a newbie.

Question: What field are you working in?

Answer: I don't have one I am a newbie.

Question: Have you started building your list yet?

Answer: No, I am a newbie.

It is apparent by the questions and answers that newbie is being used as an excuse because they haven't done anything yet. I have to admit that I said I was a newbie when I just started but the faster you get over this the better, for you.

But just being a newbie doesn't mean that you can't take action. Getting started doesn't take a lot but you have to take action in order to start.
