STOP and think!
How do you know there’s a “crisis”? And what is a “crisis” anyway?
I bet that one night you went to bed and there wasn’t such a “thing”, but when you woke up you heard (from the Media) that there was a “crisis”. What if you didn’t turned on the radio, you didn’t watch the news or you didn’t read the newspapers? You wouldn’t have known that there is a “crisis” and you would have carried on with your life with the state of mind that everything is the way it was the day before. There’s always the danger that somebody will fill you in the news, but you can always ignore the suggestion.
I did not know there was a “crisis” until recently. None of the people who I communicate with are talking about “crisis”. We are talking about prosperity and how to be helpful to one another and as many people around the world as possible.
“There is NO “crisis”! The sun is still rising every morning. The Earth and its oceans are still giving us plentiful their treasures. The planet’s cycle of life follows its course without stopping because they know NO “crisis.”
There is NO “crisis”! What you hear from the Media is simply somebody’s marketing campaign. It is paid with mass psychosis, hypnosis and fear. It’s at the expense of people around the world. The idea is indeed to get scared. Someone wants you to have a certain mindset, a certain way of thinking… I think differently. And you can do too.
A few days ago one of my neighbors told me that flu is coming. I looked around but I didn’t see it. I asked her “How do you know flu is coming? And she replied with a question “Don’t you watch TV? “No, I don’t,” I replied. I have never caught flu in my entire life, but I knew there was a word for it. She, however, gets flu every year she hears about it and she is grateful for the next, new drug on the market instead of eating crushed garlic, lemon and honey! (Not mixed together, of course. 
If there is any “crisis”, this is a crisis of ignorance, a crisis of thinking. If you think “crisis” you are screwed. You obeyed and undoubtedly accepted someone else’s way of thinking. Or the way they want you to think. The truth is you have the power to choose your own thoughts and ignore those external influences that are not in line with your idea of welfare. Think prosperity!
Concentrate your thoughts on to helping as many people as possible with the best products or services you have repeatedly. This is a proven prosperity formula. Think how you can become wealthy by increasing the people you now serve instead of decreasing them. You don’t help yourself or anybody else for that matter if you maintain fear, poor state of mind or existence. Remember, recession (crisis) is your biggest chance for prosperity because the market has a screaming need for change, know-hows, new products and services, new approaches, new values and new ways of thinking.
BTW one of the meanings of the word “crisis”, in Japanese (危機 = kiki), is „opportunity“. The word consists of two symbols 危 =”danger” and 機 =”opportunity”.
危 =”danger” & 機 =”opportunity”
The most brilliant business and marketing minds on the planet will tell you like they told me, “Focus on a niche or group of people and serve them well”. Do not waste your resources trying to reach everybody on the planet. However you look at it everybody cannot be your customer anyway.
Find out who your ideal client or avatar is. Who your product or service is most suitable for? Who do you want to serve? May be ONLY women, ONLY men, ONLY children, ONLY mothers, ONLY a certain age group of women and/or men, ONLY tourists, ONLY lawyers, ONLY disabled people, ONLY the middle class, ONLY golfers, ONLY the medical society, ONLY property owners, ONLY, ONLY, etc., etc. They all have specific needs and desires that must be met. Find out what they are, research them, ask them personally what they need and want, create a product or service and give it to them. However, there are times when you have a solution to a problem they didn’t know existed. Then you simply market it with all marketing tools available to you to reach the right for your product or service consumer.
The first thing your avatar should see is the smile on your face or in the tone of your voice, warm attitude and respect for them because your well-being depends on theirs. Tony Hsieh, 34 years old, co-founder and CEO at ZAPPOS a company, which started by selling shoes online in 2000, grew it to over 1 billion dollars in only three years! Tony shares that he mainly invests in Customer Service not in marketing. Word of mouth is the best marketing ever! Period! According to another giant in business thinking, Dan Kennedy, “It is cheaper and easier to sell to an existing customer second time than to turn a new lead into a loyal customer“. This is why every respected and hardworking, customer orientated company is represented on Social Networks like Facebook. This gives new and existing customers the opportunity to research the company before they decide to buy.
The phrase “People have no money” is particularly popular these days. Who invented it? Have you personally seen it with my own eyes? Where did the money go? Nowhere! It’s still here, changing its place, moving from pocket to pocket. It’s a market day every day! Just think. Can you go without the need to buy something even for a day? Position yourself in the marketplace so money goes into your pocket. Shrinking the span of your own ability is not going to do it. Allow yourself to think big. Inhabit your mind with big ideas. Think big!
Mark Victor Hansen, another brilliant marketing, business mind and philanthropist says, “It takes as much energy to think small as to think big. If we think at all we might as well think big.”
Do not put limits on your own abilities!
In the name of your personal prosperity and that of your family or friends, and ultimately of your country I want you to stop thinking of “crisis” as something negative. It’s actually your chance to prosperity. Don’t watch the news! It doesn’t server the idea of prosperity. Statistics show that there isn’t a single person who had prospered watching TV. Concentrate all your positive energy on how to give the best of yourself, the best service, the best product to as many people, in a niche, as possible repeatedly. Concentrate on how to give the best of you in your relationships with everybody you meet. They are potentially your future friends or customers. Treat them with due care and respect.
“The most important decision you’ll ever need to make is
whether you live in a friendly universe or a hostile universe.”
Einstein
Crisis is a way of thinking. PROSPERITY too! You have the power to choose what to think. Don’t let yourself become a victim of someone else’s (negative) marketing campaign.
The improvement of things – our personal or business lives – won’t come from the outside. The improvement will come only if we imagine it in details and give whatever it takes to achieve it, believing in the result we want. Imagine a house. The idea for it was born in the mind and then transferred to the drawing board…
Not a single athlete in the history of sport had ever won the Olympic Games with a defeatist thinking.
Not a single war in the history of mankind was ever won with a defeatist state of mind.
Turn within your soul and listen to your inner voice and not the one of the News Presenter. Spend time on your own, study, think or create, do not act out of habit or frustration. Think prosperity and nothing else that could cloud the positive images in the theatre of your mind because they are the ones that will lead you to success … always, without exception.
We, as individuals in the One – in the Universe – have the power to change ONLY ourselves. Do not expect others to change before you get better. What if they do not change? Will you allow your world to collapse? Change occur within us first.
“Be the change you want to see in the world.”
Mahatma Gandhi
The evolution begins from you!
… And one more thing – watch the short video, which is part of a speech given by Doug Wead, presidential historian, Bestselling author and an adviser to two presidents in Krasnoyarsk, Russia. He is the first person who supported my initiative The Global Awareness Campaign – Avoid Unplanned Pregnancy – Without Contraceptive Drugs – You Choose When to Become a Parent.
