 Think & Grow Rich, Chapter 8 - Decisions
The Mastery of Procrastination
The Seventh Step toward Riches

Your Success is a two part word spelled: de-ci-sion + ac-tion.

Success as you Dream it, or accepting a life of 
mediocrity is solely based on your “DECISIONS and 
Actions"

This blog is addressed to three groups of people…see if 
you can identify where you might fit in one of the three 
groups below…don’t skip ahead.

Give what you are about to read some genuine deep 
thought.  Be honest in your “Decision” to agree or 
disagree.  But open your MIND and do not let your “want” 
to be right influence you.  I suggest, just accept the truth 
and you will be very close to a correct DECISION.

Most everything we ever wanted but never got or get was 
and is due to lack of DECISION.

Think about this.  Make a list of your needs and wants.  
Here are a couple examples.  Maybe you NEED medical 
insurance but you can not afford it, maybe you need a new 
water heater or a better car because what you have is not 
dependable.  Make a list of WANTS.  Maybe you WANT to 
take a trip or you want a big screen TV or a cool new 
phone.  Can you actually afford this or do you buy it on 
credit, putting your needs & wants on credit with non-
recurring income?  You strengthen your dependence on a 
job and life of servitude.

Now think about how the JOB (your career) whatever you 
call it, is it robbing you of time?  Think of ways and places 
you would rather spend the time.  Is your job leaving you 
stressed?  When you do have time is it quality personal 
time, with yourself, family, friends?  How do you feel 
Sunday mid-day?  Do you start stressing about Monday?  
How well do you sleep Sunday night, fit-full, wake up 
several times…then finally just get up early Monday 
morning somewhat sleep deprived and face it again.  How 
good does Thursday feel realizing tomorrow is ‘TGIF”.  
Friday night feels great as you wind down.  Cram 
everything you can into Saturday and Sunday…Then 
Sunday afternoon and evening hits with that sinking feeling 
in the pit of your stomach…and it repeats.  Have you ever 
seen the movie “Groundhogs Day” with Bill Murray?  If so, 
watch it again.  If not it is a must.  How many times will you 
do it over before you “get-it”, make your Decision add the 
Action and do it right?

You keep saying you are going to do something about it.  
You keep thinking of scenarios about what you will do.  
You even go as far as write them down in a frustrated 
moment.

Let me tell you what is missing…Two simple things, 
Decision, and Action on the Decision.  Decision is two part 
and the two parts are attached, Decision+Action.  If you 
make a Decision but do not take Action you are back to 
absolutely nothing.

Here is a fact.  Better than 97% of people live in the 
CIRCLE of the Monday through Sunday cycle I just 
described.  You may love your vocation but you toil away 
at the discretionary mercy of the company you work for 
and all the peaks and valleys.  Let’s be honest, you’re 
freedom of choice is limited…so you continue to struggle 
through the days mentally and physically exhausted.  The 
motivation is fear of loss of job.  Thinking your thoughts of 
financial freedom and independence is the closest you 
come to a Decision to change.  You tell yourself, 
“Someday”.  But someday will never come until you 
actually Decide-and-take-Action.

I am talking to “three” groups of people here, those in 
NETWORK MARKETING and those in what is known 
today as business main-“stream”.  The keyword 
“STREAM”, where life’s current takes you as it races 
through the peaks and valleys.  Like a bad dream, you 
know you must reach out but feel powerless and unable to 
do so, nor do you know where to reach.

Of these groups, we identify a third, 1.) Network marketers 
that have made a DECISION+Action & reach solid ground, 
2.) Network Marketers that have made a DECISION but no 
action, remain on shaky ground, they continue to struggle 
& quit, and 3.) Those in business main “STREAM” 
struggling in the current, seemingly paralyzed, unable to 
reach out.  If they could, they wouldn't know where.

If what you have read here sounds familiar and you would 
like to find out more, "reach out" to the person who sent you 
this blog.  They can help you with the additional information 
you need to finally MAKE THAT DECISION.  Ask, “WHY” 
network marketing (http://tinyurl.com/26gkfbl).  Ask 
about the Five Pillars of due diligence in Network 
Marketing.  Just like in the “Main-Stream”, understanding 
due diligence in choosing a JOB or starting your own 
company is also vital to your success in network marketing 
as well.  But unlike the Main-Stream you will learn how to 
make good Decisions with a personal Coach and Mentor 
that has experienced the *gauntlet we call life and career, 
survived to be here and reach out to you when you were 
paralyzed unable to reach out or on shaky ground, 
struggling to hold on…

The key difference between the Main-Stream and Network 
Marketing is, unless you help others to succeed first, you 
cannot succeed.  Your prime directive is the success of 
others.  For further understanding, read "The Go-Giver".

In the book “Think & Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill, you’ll 
find a chapter on Autosuggestion.  Hill describes 
autosuggestion as, “The medium for Influencing the 
Subconscious Mind.

Your *gauntlet is overcoming a life full of Autosuggestion by 
the nay-Sayers.  You can’t do this, you must do that, 
that won’t work, get a JOB Bla-Bla-Bla…  Now, those that 
have “DECIDED” to get involved with network marketing but 
continue to struggle or quit are still under the spell of the 
nay-Sayers and have not yet traversed the gauntlet nor have 
they actually made a DECISION-to-take-ACTION.

Definition:
*[gaunt-let \ ‘gont-let, 1. a double file of people facing each 
other and armed with ***weapons*** with which to strike at 
an individual who is made to run between them.]

You will find lists of the subliminal *weapons used and how 
you have been programmed through Autosuggestion by 
generally well meaning people and accepted them as part 
of your life in Chapter 15,  outwitting The Six Ghosts of Fear 
in “Think & Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill.

You can stay in the “Main-Stream” with the 97%, or you 
can CHOOSE to take the hand of the individual who 
reached out to you and make the DECISION, take the road 
less traveled at the side of the stream.  It has a great view.
