I love success stories. Especially the ones where it’s against all odds. I recently came across such a story. It is the story of a wonderful Internet Marketer known as Karen Kay.

She has such an inspirational story that I couldn’t wait to tell you guys. If you ever thought something was impossible, then Karen’s story should knock that belief right out of your system.

You see, Karen really wanted to attend an Internet Marketing seminar organised by my friend Pat O’ Bryan. The problem was that she didn’t have enough funds to make the trip to Texas where the seminar was being held. Most people see something they want to have, be or do and they think, “I can’t afford that. I don’t have enough money.”

They focus on the problem. Instead what they should be doing is asking themselves, “HOW can I afford that?”

They should focus on the solution, instead of the problem. I learned this from marketing legend Russell Brunson.

Karen had such an intense desire to go the seminar that she looked for a solution, despite not having the money for it. Well guess what. She came up with an ingenious and creative idea to raise money for the trip. And yes, she did go to the seminar. I don’t want to spoil the rest of the story for you. To find out how she raised the money for the trip visit her site: http://ironedoutdiva.com/US6

Let’s recap the story. Karen wanted to go to a seminar, but she had an obstacle in front her, namely that she couldn’t afford it. This would have made most people give up right then and there. But Karen Kay is not your average person…she is extraordinary. If her attitude would have been negative, she wouldn’t have been able to come up with a solution and would have missed the seminar. End of story. Instead, she kept a positive and expectant attitude that a solution would show up for her. And as a result the following benefits occurred:

• Karen was able to attend the seminar of her dreams and had a lot of fun.
• She met friends whom she knew only through online forums.
• She hob knobbed with top notch marketers such as Pat O Bryan and Joe Vitale.
• She got to stand in front of the seminar crowd and tell her story…and they applauded!
• Her self-confidence grew ten-fold.
• And she made a lot of new like minded friends.

And to think, all of this occurred because of a simple change in attitude. Karen focused on the solution instead of the problem.So what does this have to do with you? Everything!

Just imagine what you can achieve if you change your attitude and focus on solutions from now on. The sky is the limit, my dear friend. Just give it a try, and see your potential unfold.

Success coach Tony Robbins always says: “Quality questions create a quality life. Successful people ask better questions, and as a result, they get better answers.”

And he also says, “It’s in your moments of decision that your destiny is shaped.”

(Incidentally Joe Vitale & Pat O Bryan are one of the earliest marketers I learned from. They both generously share a lot of tips and advice on making money online.
