If you ask 10 leaders in the world of online business how to handle feelings of overwhelm I bet you would get 10 different answers. Very recently I learned a significantly different idea about overwhelm than I had learned before. This idea came from a multi-million dollar earner in the industry who is obsessed with personal productivity and maximizing profit. He said bluntly that overwhelm is here to stay! As we move farther and farther into the information age we can expect more (not less) information to come our way in the form of social media, tools, resources and people telling us how we should and should not do things. It will be up to us which information and people we allow to influence us and who and what we choose to ignore.

First of all, I feel this explanation to be liberating because rather than finding ways of fighting overwhelm we can simply accept it as reality. Doesn’t it seem like the more we try and resist something the more it shows up in our lives?

“That which you resist about you persists about you” simply because of the amount of energy you are giving the problem. Think about how true that statement is for a moment..

If you are an overweight person and you are constantly making statements like, “I need to lose weight” and you feel extremely guilty for enjoying a pint of ice cream, chances are you will not be losing weight anytime soon because you are putting so much emphasis on the problem instead of looking for a solution. Make sense?

I see a lot of people that come into an industry like internet marketing and complain about overwhelm because they don’t know where to start. They give a great deal of unconscious energy to the problem. The problem is the feeling of overwhelm that cripples them into taking zero action. Zero action leads to zero results which then leads to feelings of being incapable which robs you of your power and leads to a non-empowered meaningless existence.

First lets just accept that in the INFORMATION AGE feelings of overwhelm due to a great deal of INFORMATION are here to stay.

Second lets understand that it’s not facebook or skype or twitter or gmail or your iphone or MLSP that’s the cause of overwhelm. These are all wonderful tools that are designed for leverage and to make life more enjoyable. The problem is that you allow all these things to distract you and cause you feelings of overwhelm.

Stop blaming facebook. Facebook is a wonderful thing. It’s you that’s the problem!

I’m sure that sounds harsh but it’s absolutely true. And just so you don’t think I’m singling you out I’ll say that I’m the problem as well. However I’m also the solution and so are you!

We have to learn to schedule into our lives distractions like email and facebook and we have to schedule time for learning marketing and improving our skills. An elaborate marketing system like MLSP can seem overwhelming at first with all the cutting edge marketing training. Should I focus on video marketing, pay per click, blogging, article marketing, ezines, etc? There is not one answer that is right for every single person and that’s why we have options.

And lets look at the alternative to overwhelm.. That would be underwhelm.

Would you rather be overwhelmed by the amount of marketing training you have at your disposal or underwhelmed with the lack of training?

Would you rather be overwhelmed by the amount of new business you have coming your way or underwhelmed by the lack of new business that’s coming in?

Stop viewing overwhelm as this bad thing that you have to fight and resist but rather accept is a part of learning and growing in a new exciting world!

You are using Facebook to build your business, right?

I sure hope so with stats like these:

• Facebook is the fastest growing site on the Internet.
• Facebook has over 600 million users and it is growing
leaps and bounds daily. You can connect with people all
over the world.
• Facebook is FREE! (our favorite four letter “F” word)
• The average user has 130 friends.
• People spend over 700 billion minutes per month on
Facebook.
As you probably already know (but I am going to restate anyways), building a business is all about relationships.
To build your business successfully and for the long haul, developing solid relationships is KEY.  So how can you do this using Facebook?
Here are four simple ways…

SIMPLE WAY #1
The first way is to find the “right friends”.  What do I mean?  Find people with the same likes, interests, and activities as you have.  How do you do this? What Facebook groups do you belong to? This is a good place to start. Check out the profiles of the people in the same groups as you; do they have similar likes and interests? Are they entrepreneurs like you? Don’t just add friends randomly; do your homework!  When adding new friends, it is imperative you include a personal message. Don’t share links to your business! Just a quick note like,

“Hi Sharon, I see we are both in the Basket Weaving Group .
Don’t you just love basket weaving? I look forward to
connecting. ~Andie”

That’s it! Just a few quick lines to make your request more personal. NO WEBSITE LINKS!

SIMPLE WAY #2
The second method to my madness is once you have made new friends on Facebook, don’t just sit there. Check out their posts… I mean check them out! Read them, comment on them, share them, and like them. Facebook is not one-sided; it’s a two-way street, it’s interactive, and you need to participate! Make sense?

SIMPLE WAY #3
Thirdly, Facebook has a great feature that I use quite frequently as I am seriously multi-tasking (like we all are!).  This is the “Chat” feature that is in the lower right corner of Facebook.

I love this!!! This is a great way to connect with your new friends. While you are on Facebook, check to see which friends are online and chat with them. AGAIN, no links!  No links, no links, no links. I am sharing how to build relationships, not how to share links (which I think everyone is pretty well versed at).

Here are some things you can ask your new friends:
1) Where are they from? How long have they lived there?
2) What do they do?
3) What do they do for fun or in their spare time?

4) Ask about their family and pets (NOTE: Most people love to talk about their kids AND their pets.  To continue to find out more about your new friends, ask questions. This also allows you to control the conversation.

SIMPLE WAY #4
Call them! What?? Don’t freak out. Call them, make a connection, and continue to develop the relationship. You can find their phone number here: 1) Go to the Account Tab in the upper right hand of Facebook and click “Edit Friends”:

Then, click on “Contacts” on the upper left and voilà …phone numbers!!

Your new found friends will be shocked when they hear your voice and name. Keep the conversation short and simple. It’s about connecting and building.  There are other ways to utilize Facebook… these are just a few simple ones. Now, it’s time for massive action. Try them and share your results.  I can’t wait to hear about your success!
