How Does Your Mindset Affect Your Fundraising?

Your mindset is directly related to whether your fundraising efforts are successful.  That may seem like an overly simplified statement.  But, you will find it is spot on.  You mindset will show both in your voice and your posture.  That will affect how you relate to potential donors and how they relate to you.

This goes well beyond just having a positive attitude.  While a smile on your face will help you in gree1ting people and making that important first impression.  A smile in your heart will make your presentation a better experience both you and your donor.

Have you ever noticed a trend in the thinking patterns of successful people? Have you ever wondered why it seems like success comes so easily to some people and so difficult for others?

It all has to do with your beliefs and self-talk.

People that achieve success on a consistent basis have one thing in common. Whether they are successful athletes, executives, business owners, or artists, they all know that they will succeed. They know this before they even attempt to achieve the goal they set out for themselves. They envision themselves living the way they want to live and feeling the excitement, gratitude, and the sense of accomplishment that comes from reaching what they set out to do.

Positive self-talk is the dialogue that goes on in your mind. It is where you believe in yourself and your mission and are confident in your capabilities to the point that you are certain that you will succeed.
When you believe in your fundraising mission and believe in your ability to get that donation or make that sale then you will have more success when you ask for the donation or present the item your group is selling.  Your belief in yourself leads to more donations and more sales.

When you realize the enormous power that thoughts have over your actions and view of life, you should make a decision to stop living your life with self-imposed limitations. Once you opt for a life filled with opportunities, potential, and fulfillment, you take the most important step to creating the reality you desire.

Choose to look for good things to focus your thinking on. Focus your attention on positive, uplifting, and encouraging words to say to yourself. For example: “Dealing with this client will make me a more patient person.” Choose to look for the silver lining.
