CHAPTER 2 THE SUCCESS FACTORS OF MILLIONAIRE ENTREPRENEURS

The problem with all these reasons is that they are all aimed 39
at blaming something or someone else. The majority of people
(those with the employee mindset) tend to give themselves lots
of excuses and blame everything and everyone, except
themselves, when things go wrong.

They blame the economy, the government, competition, bad
luck, lousy staff, disloyal and difficult customers for their
lack of success. They also tend to give themselves all kinds
of excuses like not having enough time, not having enough
money, not being good with numbers or not having the
right connections.

Blaming Others Robs You Of Your Power

As long as you have the mentality of giving excuses and
blaming something else, you will NEVER succeed in business.
Why? Because blaming something means that there is nothing
you can do about it. It robs you of your power to take action
and get the results you want.

For example, if you blame the bad economy for your drop in
sales, then it means that the ‘economy’ is controlling your
business’s success. And since you cannot change the economy,
it means that there is nothing you can do about it. As long as
the economy is bad, your chances of success are zero.

People with this ‘Victim’s Mindset’ always proclaim that it is
not their fault and they find themselves failing as soon as the
circumstances don’t match their expectations.
