I couldn't tell anyone, how many times, people told me I wouldn't do well with Avon. Some negative statements I was ALWAYS told were, "its a scam", "you wont make money and no one really gets anywhere". I couldn't fathom how hurtful, hopeless I felt, and sad that the people I needed the support from were saying such things. These are the same fears I had as well. Hearing the fears (I had everyday) from these people was a challenge. The most hurtful statement I ever heard was from a parent, I was told to "Get a Real job."
Now, being self employed in a DS business is not the easiest career. I see why we have less business owners in America, as your are really tested! All the people who tell YOU what you need to do with a dream or aspiration you have, you need to tell them to TAKE A SEAT! Surround yourself with other business owners. Doesn't have to be in the same industry. Successful people will give you the mental-positive support you need to be successful. But, the biggest supporter you will ever have is you!
You are the key important person in your business. You started a business because of a reason. Key word, YOU! You started something, you took the time out to make a life changing decision. You surrounded yourself with knowledge and support from others. YOU did this. No one else. So when it comes to YOU getting up, everyday, working hard....at the end of the day you did this. No one else got up for you.
So when people want to give you their advice on your business or make negative statements about you and your aspirations, remember, not everyone can be amazing like you and understand how amazing people work. Keep moving forward!
