How do you see MLM ? Do you see it as a business, a nice way to make a few hundred dollars extra? Do you see it as a social outlet?

Do you see it as something that can maybe be a home based business?

Do you see it as Hard to do…or Easy to do?

Or do you see it as a Wealth producing Vehicle?

What and How you see this business… will become what your business grows to…or doesn’t grow to… Read the rest of this entry »

Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. We do not fail overnight. Failure is the inevitable result of an accumulation of poor thinking and poor choices. To put it more simply, failure is nothing more than a few errors in judgment repeated every day.

Now why would someone make an error in judgment and then be so foolish as to repeat it every day? The answer is because he or she does not think that it matters.

On their own, our daily acts do not seem that important. A minor oversight, a poor decision, or a wasted hour generally doesn’t result in an instant and measurable impact. More often than not, we escape from any immediate consequences of our deeds. Read the rest of this entry »

I believe it’s time for us to retire this well-worn phrase. It represents an old way of thinking about enrolling people and sharing your MLM business. In essence, telling people to “fake it ’til you make it” is teaching dishonesty, and the language of “faking” does not imply personal evolution or personal change, but presents something that’s not really you.

I’m not saying this is the intention of Networkers who use this phrase. I can understand what’s behind it. It’s an intention to have people be out there stretching themselves even though they may be fearful. It’s the idea that acting like you’re a success will create the behavior that really will lead to success. People also say this in an effort to get new distributors off the idea that until they know everything they can’t take action. You know the cliche — the ultra-educated Networker who’s never sponsored someone. Read the rest of this entry »

Perseverance is about as important to achievement as gasoline is to driving a car. Sure, there will be times when you feel like you’re spinning your wheels, but you’ll always get out of the rut with genuine perseverance. Without it, you won’t even be able to start your engine.

The opposite of perseverance is procrastination. Perseverance means you never quit. Procrastination usually means you never get started, although the inability to finish something is also a form of procrastination.

Ask people why they procrastinate and you’ll often hear something like this: “I’m a perfectionist. Everything has to be just right before I can get down to work. No distractions, not too much noise, no telephone calls interrupting me, and of course I have to be feeling well physically, too. I can’t work when I have a headache.” The other end of procrastination – being unable to finish – also has a perfectionist explanation: “I’m just never satisfied. I’m my own harshest critic. If all the i’s aren’t dotted and all the t’s aren’t crossed, I just can’t consider that I’m done. That’s just the way I am, and I’ll probably never change.”

Let’s focus on finding the solutions and strategies you need to make your MLM dreams come true. You have a dream – now lets ask, How are you going to make it come true?

Success requires that we ask practical, powerful, positive questions every day.

Almost all human behavior is the result of asking and answering a question. Whether we realize it or not, when we adjust the thermostat, we are taking action based on the question, “How can I make this room more comfortable?”

Similarly, when we stand in front of the cabinet or refrigerator, we are often hoping to answer the question, “What will satisfy my hunger?”

In the same way, our personal and business decisions are the result of answering questions we ask ourselves. Typically, we choose a career based on questions such as, “What would I love to do?” or “What are my skills?”. Sometimes we select a job based on questions like, “What opportunities are available?” or, “Where can I get a job to support myself and my family?” Read the rest of this entry »

Leadership is about change. If you need no change, you need no leader. In times of change, people seek out more and better MLM leaders. Those successful sought-out leaders embrace the following thought: “The best reformers the world has ever known are those who began with themselves.”

Mahatma Gandhi said, “We must be the change that we envision.” Tolstoy said, “Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.”

The following comments are about personal change:

1. One person cannot change another person. Read the rest of this entry »

Our minds are the ultimate problem solver – that is one of its major roles. The mind, in its brilliance, can also take creative energies and manifest them as real world solutions and results. When we have thoughts and ideas of how things are supposed to be and they don’t turn out that way, the mind sees a problem that needs fixing and generates the energy to do so. When there are an overwhelming number of problems or even a few problems that seem very important, the mind generates an overabundance of intense energy that becomes stress. Is stress necessary or even helpful to our success?

Let’s examine how we use the mind in ways that can create unnecessary stress and how that same energy can be redirected to our greatest success. Then let’s look at how to give your mind an entirely new job description – one that will create prosperity and will make your mind abundantly more happy! By giving your mind a new role, you can bring success, accomplishment, peace and happiness all together in one beautiful success story for your life!

Harness The Power of Your Mind to Create your MLM Success – Not Stress!

Have you ever had a vacation that didn’t go exactly as planned and this upset you? Or have you ever started working on an exciting new business opportunity and then become so overwhelmed that you lose all sense of enjoyment in the process? Your mind can make any activity or experience, even those that are supposed to be fun, a vehicle for unhappiness and stress. So, what can we do about this?

Let’s say you have the thought “I want to be home by six p.m. – my commute should only take an hour.” The mind, which is the ultimate problem solver, takes this as a direct order. Anything that gets in the way of this order is something that the mind labels as a “problem” – and in the job description of “problem solver,” it will spend energy trying to fix it. The more insistent you are about the criticality of arriving home by six o’clock, the more energy the mind will spend to try to make this happen. So, if you are on the bus and the bus gets a flat tire, the mind is very likely to engage itself trying to solve this problem, which is completely out of its control. All the mind knows is “be home by six” and “not happening because of problem.” Your ‘knight in shining armor’ is here to try to change things! It wants to help you complete the job or goal you outlined. What if instead your mind was given the directive that you want to be home in a timely manner, and more importantly, you want to relax and enjoy the ride and maybe even brainstorm some new ideas for your business. It’s the same flat tire, but instead of trying to solve the “problem,” there is no issue, just an opportunity to enjoy or brainstorm a bit longer.

Financial Success is Not a Problem!

Similarly, what we tell our mind about financial prosperity can create “problems” that actually keep success away from us. One of the first things I explore when I mentor someone is their wealth-image. Your wealth-image is all of your conscious and subconscious feelings about money – and they can have a huge impact on your ability to attract abundance! If you have given your mind the thought that “money is the root of all evil,” your mind takes this as an order and will try to help solve the problem of money being bad by keeping financial success away from you. You see, the mind really wants to help you. It wants to protect you from harm and problems. If it thinks money is problematic, the mind will help you not succeed so that you won’t get hurt. On the other hand, if the “problem” is how to be highly successful in a balanced and happy way, your mind, the ultimate problem solver, will be your #1 partner in this process!

Give Your Mind a New Job Description

What would you do if you had a great employee who works very hard, but does not have a clear job description, and therefore, is wasting time and effort on unimportant tasks, as well as making a lot of mistakes? One great approach is to conduct an interview, find out what they think they should be doing and then very clearly redefine their job description. Now, all of their hard work will pay off and their efforts will be laser directed at what is most important.

In the same way, you can interview your mind. Look at any stressful situation in the past few days. What did you tell your mind was the goal? “To finish your business presentation in 30 minutes” or “to create a winning business presentation as efficiently as possible and with a great attitude.” The first directive for your mind creates stress and a lack of completion if anything unforeseen occurs. The second directive allows for wonderful new ideas and creativity to manifest so you can give the best presentation ever and enjoy yourself while doing it!

Start to become aware of what you, as the director of your mind, are telling your mind to do. Also, become more aware of what your mind sees as a problem and why. Is the long line at the bank a “problem” on which your mind should work? Or is it an opportunity to take a break from a hectic day and brainstorm new ideas or engage the person in line with you in a conversation that may lead to a great business or investment partnership? When your mind is in the right space in any circumstance, you will find yourself in the right place at the right time and will be able to grab unforeseen opportunities!

Liberate Your Mind

Let your mind solve problems. Just make sure that you are giving it success challenges, not unsolvable issues that are not even a real problem for you! Liberate your mind and it will create success for you in creative ways that you never dreamed possible!
