part.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe quality of being encouraging.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Wow.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Does that still exist?<\/p>\n<p>Six months ago I would have said \u201cno.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Six months ago I was that Saturday Night Live character\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.Debbie Downer.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t think I knew how truly depressed I was.<\/p>\n<p>I would not say I was having a mid-life crisis, but\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.it may have been closer than I care to admit.<\/p>\n<p>And my<strong> positiveness<\/strong> was no where to be found.<\/p>\n<p>And the thing is, I wanted to be positive.<\/p>\n<p>And sometimes I thought I was.<\/p>\n<p>But if you pull back the layers a little bit\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.you could see I was not happy.<\/p>\n<p>And then I found this simple program that changed everything for me.<\/p>\n<p>Who would have thought?<\/p>\n<h3>From down and out to finding positiveness from an unexpected source<\/h3>\n<p>So six months ago, I was a struggling burned-out insurance guy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I was seeking something in my life.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And to be honest, I thought it was a business opportunity I was looking for.<\/p>\n<p><em>But God has a funny way of giving you exactly what you need.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>I thought more money was the answer for me.<\/p>\n<p>And when I looked at this opportunity, the money potential\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.was the first thing that jumped out at me.<\/p>\n<p>But what I soon found, was the people and the culture\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.here was filled with <em>positiveness<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Positiveness was exactly what I needed.<\/p>\n<p>This family of like-minded entrepreneurs that I have had the pleasure\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.of getting to know\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>want nothing but to see each other do well.<\/p>\n<p>They truly want to see you do well\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Which brings me to the second part of the <em>positiveness<\/em> definition\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.\u201dpromising of a successful outcome.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Positiveness is the promising of a successful outcome.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So when you include that as part of your daily outlook\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.you are accepting a successful outcome into your business and into your life.<\/p>\n<p><em>How powerful is that?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>How positive is that?<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>How empowering is that?<\/em><\/p>\n<p>You see when I joined this business 6 months ago, I, probably like you\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.was looking for <strong>ways to make money<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>And it is a great vehicle to make more money than you can imagine\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>\u2026.but what comes with it was, something I was not expecting\u2026.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>A powerful family that supports, encourages, and lifts each other up<\/li>\n<li>Products that eliminate self limiting beliefs<\/li>\n<li>and A culture of positiveness not found anywhere else<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I just returned from Austin Texas for the <a href=\"https:\/\/empowernetwork.com\/about\/\">Empower Network<\/a> \u2018<em>Release Your Inner Badass\u2019<\/em> event.<\/p>\n<p>What I witnessed there was nothing short of miraculous.<\/p>\n<p>4,000 badasses all standing in unity and \u2018<strong><em>deleting their inner wussy<\/em><\/strong>\u2019 all while\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Simultaneously they were \u2018<em>Releasing their inner badass.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n<p>There were no egos\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Just breakthroughs.<\/p>\n<p>Just a support of one another.<\/p>\n<p>Just <strong>positiveness<\/strong> everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>And self belief grew as the \u2018inner wussy\u2019 was removed.<\/p>\n<p>And for that I am thankful to be a part of this
