Good suggestions especially the "cut your moustache" thing and the yoda quote.

All of the suggestions you made are good ones!!

One of my mainstays has been a mastermind team.
They have been supportive and helpful in all the situations.

I too had to walk away from all of my negative know it all friends...
however the best part is I now have helpful supportive friends.

Out with the Old and in the with the new....
I am very glad to have my new friends in my life.

stay connected with a couple of people on this forum...
they might be the start of your first mastermind team.

Make 2009 the best Year ever!!

I have experienced this having started my own business.

I guess in the end, my logic has been that if someone doesn't buy my services that's a shame for THEM. THEY will miss out on my excellent skills, experience, results etc.

Also (and its easy to forget), there ARE a lot of tyre kickers out there and people who want your services for free and there are others who will lead you on and still you end up with nothing. Its important to remember you haven't been rejected personally and there may be heaps of different reasons that are totally irrelevant to you why there was no sale - think of those nonsales like George Costanza "its not you, its me". Because more often than not it really is about them - i.e.) no budget, spending freeze etc.

Hope this helps.

Hi Everyone
Thank You so very much for your responds, they are all very good advise and I plan to use everyone's advise. One thing at time. You all probably have experienced the same things like this in some shape or form. I dont even talk to people I know anymore.This is the response I get from them just as a matter of speaking of course.I don't do this but they tell me "Put the Crack Pipe Down and Walk Away". "Stop living in a pipe Dream". This does motivate me to prove them wrong, but when constient rejection I Get so down. I will show every one of these suckers that don't have to believe in me. But I DO. I will prevail! Again thank you everyone for the incouraging words, you just don't know how much you all have touched my life. You know what my News Years Resolution is going to be!. I don't have to put the crack pipe down because I never used it or picked it up, but I am GOING TO WALK AWAY from everyone of them . You all have made me such a better person, Thank You. PS I went window shopping today (can't afford anything else) and you know what it felt so GOOD. Happy Holidays to everyone and God Bless you ALL. This is the season for me to reconnect with God!

Don't take it personal. You are not alone. I am experiencing the same responses!! However, I try to learn from each and keep moving forward. Perhaps, the time isn't right, perhaps I am being taught patience, perhaps...perhaps...perhaps. I keep searching and trying. Last but most importantly, I depend on God and "know" that in His time, it will all work out.
