It’s easy to develop a victim mentality and an entitlement mindset.

Weldon Long knows how easy it is because he had both in the first half of his life. It’s those mindsets and beliefs that landed him in prison, not just once, but three times. When a turn of events, including his father’s death, led him to recognize that he was responsible for his own life and destiny, everything changed. Now he’s not only the owner of several very successful businesses but also the author of 2 bestselling books. Anthony’s conversation with Weldon on this episode is both inspirational and instructive. You won’t want to miss it.

Success in life and in sales is a consistency problem.

It’s amazing the things we know to do but simply don’t do. We know smoking causes cancer, but still many, many people are killing themselves with cigarettes. We know that unhealthy eating and lack of exercise causes obesity and a slew of obesity related diseases – yet we overeat. Weldon Long is convinced that when the consequence to negative behaviors is not immediately apparent we tend to brush off those consequences. The key to change is learning to engage the emotion surrounding that consequence to bring yourself to a point of consistency in taking the right actions to avoid it. You can hear how Weldon explains it on this episode of In The Arena.

Mindset may be a buzzword these days, but for good reason.

It’s been said that what you think about will impact the way you live, and the way you live will impact the life you have. Weldon Long completely agrees with that statement. He’s seen it proven true in his own life as he experienced the tremendous differences that positive, can-do thinking has enabled him to achieve. After leaving prison for the third time, Long was able to establish a successful life as a business owner and author that most people only dream about. Yet, he did it – and he attributes all of it to a change in mindset. You can hear his story and learn how to do the same thing in your life, on this episode.
