🧠 Stop Lending Out Your Mind: Think for Yourself 🚫

When you’re a disabled network marketer with chronic conditions, you often hear a lot of unsolicited advice—from the “just try yoga” crowd to the well-meaning family members worried about your stability.

It’s tempting to constantly listen and take on board the thinking of those closest to them, especially when you’re managing health struggles. But as the saying goes,

“It’s a crime to stop thinking for yourself.”
For my fellow entrepreneurs, parents, dadpreneurs, and mompreneurs building a future through MLM and direct sales:
* Your Journey is Unique: No one else truly understands the daily calculus of managing chronic conditions while pursuing big goals. What works for a “healthy individual” or a relative in a traditional job won’t necessarily work for you. You are the expert on your life and your capacity.
* The Power of Independent Thought: In network marketing, you need vision. If you let the fears of others—even those who love you—dictate your strategy, you’ll stay stuck. You chose this path because you need flexibility and control. Own that choice!
* Disabled Entrepreneurship is Self-Reliance: As a disabled entrepreneur, I learned that the greatest limitation isn’t my condition; it’s the mental constraint placed on me by external doubt. Think for yourself to create the business that fits your life, not the other way around.

Don’t let the good intentions of others steal your vision and your drive. You have to be the CEO of your mind and your business.
