These three simple words are core to success in any MLM home business. Working at home can be a challenge – the kids are running around, the dog needs to go out, and the cat needs to be fed. Yeah, there’s a whole lot more too. Recently, a mentor of mine asked me if what I was doing right then and there was contributing to my bottom line. That is profound. Think about it. If you’re responsible for starting/maintaining/growing a business, you have to think like a businessperson. Sure, you’re being pulled every which way. But you have to be responsible for your business or you’ll never make it. It seems trite but these three simple words sum it up. Enjoy the video! But wait, there’s more…! What do you say???
I am in the process of passing the anniversary of my latest trip around the sun. As always, it is a time of celebration, but it is also a time of reflection, especially since I have seen so many of these trips. These events are really getting harder; not because of how I feel physically, mentally, and emotionally, but because I am only three trips away from my 6th decade! I have always thought of that as old. However, I look and feel much younger, and that is because of what I eat (very much so) and what I do to stay active and keep young. A lot of that is due to my attitude towards life. Attitude! Now that is an amazing word. It packs so much meaning into life.
When I was fresh out of college I answered a newspaper ad about being self-motivated and ready to be my own boss. I needed some income, since I was a starving musician. It turned out to be an encyclopedia company (the best one, by the way). I said to myself “I can do this” so I signed up and was trained by one of the best people in the direct sales industry that I have ever met. I soon found myself out on the road, after having lined up appointments for the day, and giving presentations. In a few months I had sold 23 sets of books. They said it was great. I thought that it was miserable.
A very uncomplicated definition of the Law Of Attraction is manifesting abundance into your life based on whatever you think about regularly. Your consistent and dominant thoughts will find a way to manifest into the physical world as we know and perceive it.
Given the simplicity of this definition one would wonder why anyone couldn’t just manifest anything at anytime instantly into his or her life. Well, it’s not quite as “easy” as it sounds. Pursuing this principle requires focus, persistence, and practice. The single initial factor that makes it a little challenging is the first part of the definition above (and I will stick with the “simple” definition for added poignancy) – consistent and dominant thoughts. Everyone in this world has (obviously) grown up based on the way they were raised. Most people, whether they are aware of it or not
As an MLM home business entrepreneur, have you ever been asked, “What do you do?” What was your response? “I’m in the network marketing industry,” “I’m a nutrition counselor,” “I’m a travel agent,” “I have an MLM home business,” “I teach people how to get wealthy”? What is it?
When I began my foray into the network marketing industry, the people I met who were already involved described it as the best and most lucrative industry to be in. Each individual felt that their MLM opportunity was the best and most rewarding company to align with. As it turn out, only a small number of companies in the network marketing industry actually provide what most are looking for. Certainly, a larger number do not. Unfortunately, I believe the industry has been its own worst enemy by way of portraying their products, companies, and ease of success in light of only a small number of successful individuals. With all that, think about how YOU would answer the question: “What do you do?” Here is the problem… I sat with big-league network marketer, Bill Constain for some quick MLM training at a network marketing industry event this weekend. Bill creates an analogy regarding attraction marketing. Do you attract folks to you that you want to do business with, the main principle behind attraction marketing, or, conversely, do you attract people who either you would rather not do business with, who would not be good in your business, or who is not interested in your business? Watch this video to see if you can relate. If you find yourself swimming with the sharks, you have to ask yourself… So, you’ve decided to research one of the true experts in the network marketing industry. Wise decision. Tom “Big Al” Schreiter has been a giant in this industry for over 35 years. His journey into the network marketing industry began in the early 70’s with the first few years being a rough go of it and full of roadblocks. However, it wasn’t long before he was able to break through and become an expert on nearly every aspect of network marketing. Alright, we are off to a good start but I’m curious, dear reader, what actually brought you here today? So lets focus…Are you looking for a mentor? Maybe you want to find out what “Big Al” can do for you? Maybe even looking for a good network marketing company and product with staying power? If you’ll allow me, I think I can assist. Please read on… Are you ready to be inspired? Are you ready for a message that will change the way you think forever? In the spirit of the 2010 Olympics, here is an Olympic-sized MLM Training tip. Check out this video. You might even want to watch this a few times to truly grasp the essence of the message. Think about what you are doing today – right now – to prepare for the future, much like an athlete might prepare for the Olympics. Watch the video and ask yourself, “Can I predict the future based on my behavior today?” Enjoy!
Eight or nine years ago now I was given a book to read. It was short and easy, which is always nice, but the message that I took away from this book was the greatest life-changing lessons that I have had from any book before and, almost, since. I say almost because the author of that first book has given me two more wonderful books that have enhanced the lessons and added to my guiding principles in my life. The first book is The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz. A truly remarkable piece of work. Four seemingly simple agreements to make with yourself. You can read a review about The Four Agreements right here in this blog and begin to see what he is teaching.
Since then, I have had the fortune to discover some of Don Miguel Ruiz’s other books, The Voice of Knowledge and The Fifth Agreement, which was co-written with his son, Don Jose. These two Toltec warriors have a wonderful message to deliver to us and it will serve you throughout your life if you really embrace the teachings. Most of the success coaches – my gurus – who I have had in my life I have personally known or met at a training event. They give me hugs and hands-on knowledge that I can take with me and incorporate into my life’s pursuit. I have not had the fortune of meeting Don Miguel Ruiz or his son yet.
What’s God got to do with Network Marketing? More than you can imagine.
Hey, I’m the MLM Mobster; I don’t thump bibles. But I’m passionate about belief with a capital B. If your head isn’t buried in the sand, you know that your MLM success depends on unshakable belief. In what? Your product or service, your company, the network marketing industry, and yourself. Eliminate one of those, and you’re out of the game. It’s no joke when they say that Network Marketing is a personal development program with a compensation plan. It makes perfect sense. You won’t get rich if you don’t grow. And you won’t grow if you don’t examine, challenge, and strengthen your beliefs. Gregg Braden is a master at reframing and transforming beliefs. This guy is way ahead of the herd. To say that he gets the big picture is an understatement. He’s a man with a vision you definitely want to see. His book, The Divine Matrix, is inspiring and life changing. |
