Let Yourself Go Through This Process, Other Income, Victim Mindset (I Have It - Ick!)
Published: Mon, 03/12/18
It's spring break and I'm SUCH a happy mama! All three of my kids were home last night - my Heaven. I took a nap and woke up and Scarlett had cleaned the whole house. I know when I was 13, I wouldn't have done that. She's so sweet!
This week is super busy. I'm working hard today on a couple of projects - the Kevin Fahey bonus and the Nick James bonus. Stay tuned if you're waiting on those!
#1 - Other Income
Got a lot of emails about that $500k congrats from JVZoo - people asking what my affiliate earnings were, if that 500k was for sales of MY products. So I took a peek and it looks like as an affiliate I've earned $256,354 on that platform.
When you add that to my net sales of my own products, it means JVZoo alone has earned me $91,925 a year. That doesn't include Warrior Plus, ClickBank, Amazon Share-a-Sale, Commission Junction, or my own carts like for PLRMiniMart.com.
I'm the kind of person who strongly believes in not having all my eggs in one basket. So I diversify my business models. Make sure you check out #3 in this email. It's important!
#2 - Victim Mindset (I Have It)
It's very hard to admit but in some areas of my life, I've emblazoned the label of victim onto myself. And to be blunt, it bugs the crap out of me. In fact, I'm working on ridding myself of it with a couple of professionals. I'm also devouring books and podcasts on the subject. I don't have this in all areas of life - like business - I'm good there.
But some people aren't. And it's really difficult to identify it in yourself. Usually, victims don't recognize the pity party they're hosting. Once you see it, though - it's awful. You just want to make it go away.
I don't like kumbaya type motivation when I'm trying to overcome things, either. I want the Braveheart speech. I want the type of concept like Edmund Loh put in his PLR bundle I just bought. I haven't read the whole thing - but I'm going reading it because I watch Edmund's real life and he is a fierce go getter personal life and business, too.
It's called Bulletproof Mind and it says on the sales page there's a coupon but I guess that expired because I paid the $17:

So far I love what it says about learning how to be an accomplished victim so to speak. In other words, bulletproof doesn't mean you never take a hit. It means that hit doesn't take you down for good. You learn how to navigate life in spite of its drawbacks because we are all going to have them - no one is impervious to days that truly suck, to failures and to self doubt in some areas.
Really good read. Has a bunch of images I could do without - just want the text and they take up room - but I like how the content teaches you to be aware of your quirks (I'm learning) and how to address them and understand the root of all this victimization attitude. It's the WORST thing in the world to me. Pathetic. I hate it.
There's a section on empathy and kindness and it's so weird - I read that with "to yourself" included. I'm going to share something personal. This weekend, I was going through a workbook on intuitive eating (I want food to be a non issue for me and just listen to hunger cues, portions etc.) and it had this section about what I tell myself when I screw up versus what I would say to a friend. Scarlett read it and she said, "Mama...! You're so mean to yourself in your mind. You should talk to yourself like a friend."
I said, "I know that logically, but I don't do it - I'm brutal." The exercise ended with writing down what you think would happen if you did do the same thing to yourself that you do with friends, and I'd written something about how much less stress I'd have and how much easier it would be to succeed. She said, "Well if you won't do it, I'm gonna do it FOR you!"
There's a BIG difference between being KIND to ourselves and playing the victim and letting ourselves get away with stuff we KNOW is wrong - like NOT doing what needs to be done. Anyway, I'm enjoying it as motivation.
#3 - Let Yourself Go Through This Process
Today's podcast for Tiffany's Texas Boot Kick is about the benefits of letting yourself go through the info product creation process (because some of you are too scared or intimidated to do this). It's not all about the money. You'll gain so much from going from point A to point Z.
