What Every Entrepreneur Can Learn From Kids



Be-An-EntrepreneurWhen you’re pondering about what it takes to be an entrepreneur, don’t overlook the business savvy of kids. They aren’t always consciously striving to climb the ladder of success. However, the journey from toddler to teen leaves a trail of tested developmental data.
Here we feature the 8 areas of ‘kids’ mindsets:



#1 – Negotiations

How-To-Be-An-Entrepreneur---NegotiateChildren of all ages are masters of the art of negotiating. Watch a child engaging in the bargaining process. Kids learn early on that everything has subjective value and might be considered trade worthy in certain circumstances.
Take stock of your own negotiating inventory.


#2 – Compromise

Young-EntrepreneurReaching agreements results in more rewards than stubbornly wallowing in stalemated disagreements. There is nothing defeating about walking away with a gain. When you want two jumping frogs for your slingshot, keep in mind that frogs aren’t so easy to catch. One frog or no frog? It’s that simple.



#3 – Resilience

Kid-EntrepreneurKids seldom take ‘no’ for an answer. When they hit a wall, they walk around it, climb over it or set up a catapult. They don’t quit until they have exhausted every possible way to achieve their goals. They are driven with passion, determination, ingenuity and optimism. You need all of those to be an entrepreneur.


#4 – Resources

child resourcefulIt’s important to know who has the best, the most, the cheapest, the best delivery time, etc. Kids look through junkyards, yard sales, ‘free’ ads and under rocks. That’s all aside from keeping a list they’ve acquired through the grapevine of those who can offer the best fish bait, fireworks, homework help and bike repairs.


#5 – Funding

chidren making moneyWhen more money is needed, it’s important to be able to turn to more than one funding source. Kids already know this. When one parent turns out empty pockets, they shamelessly hit on the other parent. Benevolent uncles and friends with generous allowances might be willing to offer some temporary financial relief.
You don’t know if you don’t ask.

#6 – Real World Social Networking

kids sport successYou can never have enough contacts. Most kids join activity groups to be with other kids. As the social circle widens through introductions, there is an increase in invitations. The cousin of the friend of the kid on the wrestling team knows the lady who is in charge of auditions for the play you’d love to be in. Hmmm…just maybe.
As we grow older we make less time for social groups like sports, performances and hang outs. There could be a lot of great new info we are missing out on from one another if only we made more time for social networking in the real world, not just online.

#7 – Promote Yourself

Successful-KidsIt’s okay to talk about your talents, goals and successes with pride. The power of word of mouth advertising can start with you. There is a difference between bragging and exuding supreme confidence. Just be sure that you can deliver on your claims. As you show others what you can do, word will get around.
Those who are in need of your talents will find you.


#8 – Dream Big!

Big-DreamsWhile it’s necessary to be realistic, it’s also important to project a positive outcome. It’s okay to want a pony someday even if you currently only have room for a dog house.
Success will allow you to address such minor details.


As you can see from the above tips, it’s sometimes worthwhile to look back as well as to look forward. Remember when you were a kid and unstoppable! Now the risks are greater, the challenge is bigger and the potential rewards make it all worth it. Like all kids, you practiced and honed your business skills. Back then, it was part of being a kid. Now it’s all a part of how to be an entrepreneur in the adult world.

6 Tips for Making It Work as a Part-Time Entrepreneur


6 Tips for Making It Work as a Part-Time Entrepreneur

You know you want to start a business, but you can’t shake those financial pressures — rent or a mortgage, a car payment and maybe you have kids. Even young people have responsibilities after all. But tack on the fact your business idea will surely take time to catch on, and starting up can seem even further out of reach.
You are a perfect candidate to become a part-time entrepreneur.
While not ideal for every young trep — jumping head first into the start-up pool can be a preferred route — getting the business up and running before letting go of a regular paycheck may be the best course. Here are six ways to make the transition into entrepreneurship a smooth one:
  • 1. Find balance. Of course, this is what being a part-time entrepreneur is all about. Can you start up and maintain your commitment to your full-time responsibilities? If you get caught up in your business to the point that your full-time job suffers, people will notice and it will cost you opportunities and, potentially, the job itself.
  • 2. Be patient. As a part-time entrepreneur, you simply can’t move forward with your new business at the same pace as those who can work on theirs full-time. And even full-time entrepreneurs never have enough hours in the day. Find the right pace for you so you can see progress without completely wearing yourself out. Be patient; you may not be moving as fast as you would like, but forward is good.
  • 3. Bank your profits. At some point, you will want to walk away from your job and be a full-time entrepreneur. The money you save now will enable you to take that step sooner. If you don’t need it to grow the business, then save it for your future, but be prepared to put it back into your new business as needed.
  • 4. Set flexible goals. As you build your business, you may find your day job getting in the way of your entrepreneurial goals. That’s OK. It’s what being a part-time entrepreneur is about. Watch out for a tendency to beat yourself up for spending too much time on your job at the expense of your business. Your energies will need to shift from one to the other as time goes on, and that’s OK.
  • 5. Take yourself seriously. While you’re taking baby steps with your business, you and others may discount your plans because your progress is slow. Don’t let timing affect your long-term commitment. Find ways to remind yourself of what you’re working to accomplish. Don’t let others dismiss your goals. Remember that you can make this happen, it will just take longer.
  • 6. Have an escape plan, if you want one. Do you want to be a part-time entrepreneur forever? That’s actually alright. Operating as a part-time entrepreneur may not have been your original plan, but if your business can succeed in your off hours and you enjoy your full-time job, why not?
  • However, if your entrepreneurial plans include running your dream business full time, you need to define milestones and set goals that include walking away from your day job. What needs to be in place in terms of infrastructure, sales, product development or other criteria before you will be ready to quit?

Being Productive even on a lazy and rainy Tuesday

Being  Productive even
on a lazy and rainy Tuesday .................... Making a Video!



 
Its the second day that its been raining here and just imagine if i was still an employee how challenging it would be to go to work or even just get out of the bed due to the cold and very comfortable "Bed Weather"

Great thing is, i don't really need to go anywhere!, That's one of the advantages when your managing your business or investments at home and specifically online. So rather than sleep the whole day i decided to do something productive while doing my morning routine of drinking coffee and catching the morning breeze. I decided, to make a short video of how "Great" it is to stay at home during this times, how advantageous the internet has  been to me and share a very successful event last Saturday that i consider a first and one of the turning points in my career (truly i made the right choice)

To my surprise, when i powered on my laptop and just decided to check my skype and facebook, a chat box in skype already greeted me with curiosity coming from Singapore and another one from Bacolod, Philippines. Both were asking what i do for a living online =) So video stardom aside, i talked to the guys for a few hours and showed them some short video clips of what im doing and there really into it. Just Imagine, they will be one of many business associates that im working with that i met and actively make money online even if its one different country or island province to mine. Hundreds even thousand of miles apart but the web can really make things very convenient!

So after that, i already decided to work on the video and asked my wife to help out since i do need someone to work the camera =) after editing and a few sounds, here's the 6 minute video. I wont talk about it anymore since you can just watch it. Enjoy!

9 Confidence Building Techniques That Will Help You Ace Anything!


How-To-Build-Confidence9 Confidence Building Techniques That Will Help You Ace Anything!

Having a high level of confidence can do wonders in every aspect of your life from your physical appearance to your sleeping patterns. It is proven that people with a lot of confidence are more successful, healthy, and enjoy a more fulfilling life.
Below are our ’9 confidence building techniques that will help you ace anything’.



1. Stop Comparing Yourself to Others

comparing yourself to others
One of the most effective self-confidence building techniques that will immediately improve your confidence is to stop comparing yourself to others. This is trouble and in reality, you only see a small slice of how that person really is. Everyone, thinks, feels, learns and sees things differently. You are the only person on this planet with your ability, it may not be some sort of super-human power you posses but the possibilities in you and the way you do things will be endless and different to everybody else, no two fingerprints are the same. Remember that!
When you compare yourself to other people you tend to compare yourself to the one person who you believe has it best in life. This is definitely not a good way to assess yourself. Instead worry about what it takes to be someone that you like yourself. You would be shocked at how much happier people who like themselves are than people who do not.


2. Always Make Eye Contact

Most people are incredibly afraid of how other people will judge them in a multitude of different situations. By making eye contact you tell yourself that you are worthy, unafraid, and confident. You also send the same message to the other person/people that you are talking to.
A little trick I find that works is to look between their eyebrows in the center of their head, this is less intimidating for you as you are not looking directly into their eyes but from where they are standing it looks like you actually are. Just make sure you are not staring to hard, and are not too up close and personal like the picture we have featured to the left, this may intimidate the person you are conversing with and this defeats the purpose of lowering room for judgement.
At first many people have to force themselves to make eye contact for quite some time before it becomes a habit. However, you will find that once you get into a habit of making good eye contact you will naturally feel more confident in all situations and scenarios.


3. Exercise & Healthy Eating

Exercise-&-Eat-HealthyAppearance is the number one cause for low self-esteem around the world. Improving your physical appearance can do wonders for your confidence. Exercising often is the best way to make yourself both feel better and look better.
Exercise of any kind will release endorphins which are chemicals released by the brain during exercise that enhances that feel good mood and sends a pleasurable feeling through your body. Exercising on a regular basis will improve anyone’s physical appearance and subsequently their self-confidence. You feel good, you smile more. You smile more you feel more confident, there’s a pattern here isn’t there?
Do know, that 70% of weight loss starts with your dieting, so find a diet that works for you and implement an exercise routine that you are happy with. Just make sure it is a routine you enjoy otherwise your fitness regime will be short lived and you will see little to no improvement.

4. Dress Sharp

Dress Sharp - Self ConfidenceHave you ever heard the saying “when you look good, you feel good”? There is a lot of truth to that old saying. When you dress sharp it has a positive physiological effect resulting in improved interactions with other people. You will also feel changes in the way that you carry yourself, which enhances your level of comfort in every day situations.
Dressing sharp is an easy and immediate way to increase your confidence. This has been studied and proven to be very effective in immediately increasing confidence levels.


5. Compliment Others Often

complimentGet in the mindset of thinking positive. This will allow you to see the good in people and compliment them on their strong points. So how is this going to help boost your self-esteem? Well, when you compliment others you are ten times more likely to get a sincere compliment in return. This will reinforce your strong points and push your positive characteristics to the fore front of your self assurance. Go easy on the compliments though, you don’t want to come across as a groupie.


6. Help Those Less Fortunate

While this may seem counter productive to your happiness, helping those less fortunate is one of the most empowering feelings in the world. Those who do community service often have incredibly high self esteems, self confidence, and a great outlook on life.
The empowering feeling of helping others builds self confidence in yourself and helps you to realise that you are abe to make an impact in this world.
Tony Robbins said it best - ”The secret of living is giving.”


7. Face Your Fears & Don’t Fear Failure

This a huge reason for low level of confidence in millions of people. Our fears have incredible control over us and affect the way we feel about ourselves. When we fear something we feel weak which is the same as not feeling confident. In order to overcome this you have to face your fears in life. Do not avoid the things that you are incredibly afraid of. The better way to go about it is to face your fears and get to understand what you fear instead of running from it.
Learn to never fear failure. Everyone in life fails numerous times. A couple of failures will not define your life. The way you respond to these failures is what defines you.
  

8. Carry ‘Confidence’ With You

Increase ConfidenceCarry it with you, just not on your shoulders. Now what I mean by this is you should not look like you are trying to be confident and stressing about how you come across.
There are a number of ways that you can exude confidence physically and here are a handful we have to share with you:


- Speak clearly and with a reasonable volume
- Be conscious of your posture
- Don’t cross your arms as this shows insecurity
- Use your hands to explain things, this helps to draw your crowd a vivid picture of your explanations


9. Fake It, Til You Make It

Fake-It-Til-You-Make-ItWe have all heard this term used before but it is very applicable when it comes to self-confidence.
If you find yourself in a situation where you feel vulnerable and not very confident, this is the time to switch on your fake it to make it mind set. Use the characteristics of confident people and apply them to your immediate situation. Look for a role model in the moment, someone you look at as a confident and charismatic person, whether it be a character, a movie star or someone that you have felt comfortable around before.
These will become habits of your own within time and will definitely pay off.


Cheers!

10 ways to get RICH by Warren Buffet

I was catching up with my readings last night and i stumble on this article. Its not the first time i read about warren buffet and his secrets to success, to be exact i already read a few but what i like about these articles is its simplicity, direct and common sense at some point, So i'm sharing the article with you

~Enjoy


With an estimated fortune of $62 billion, Warren Buffett is the richest man in the entire world. In 1962, when he began buying stock in Berkshire Hathaway, a share cost $7.50. Today, Warren Buffett, 78, is Berkshire's chairman and CEO, and one share of the company's class A stock worth close to $119,000. He credits his astonishing success to several key strategies, which he has shared with writer Alice Schroeder. She spend hundreds of hours interviewing the Sage of Omaha for the new authorized biography The Snowball. Here are some of Warren Buffett's money-making secrets -- and how they could work for you.



1. Reinvest Your Profits: When you first make money in the stock market, you may be tempted to spend it. Don't. Instead, reinvest the profits. Warren Buffett learned this early on. In high school, he and a pal bought a pinball machine to pun in a barbershop. With the money they earned, they bought more machines until they had eight in different shops. When the friends sold the venture, Warren Buffett used the proceeds to buy stocks and to start another small business. By age 26, he'd amassed $174,000 -- or $1.4 million in today's money. Even a small sum can turn into great wealth.

2. Be Willing To Be Different: Don't base your decisions upon what everyone is saying or doing. When Warren Buffett began managing money in 1956 with $100,000 cobbled together from a handful of investors, he was dubbed an oddball. He worked in Omaha, not Wall Street, and he refused to tell his parents where he was putting their money. People predicted that he'd fail, but when he closed his partnership 14 years later, it was worth more than $100 million. Instead of following the crowd, he looked for undervalued investments and ended up vastly beating the market average every single year. To Warren Buffett, the average is just that -- what everybody else is doing. to be above average, you need to measure yourself by what he calls the Inner Scorecard, judging yourself by your own standards and not the world's.

3. Never Suck Your Thumb: Gather in advance any information you need to make a decision, and ask a friend or relative to make sure that you stick to a deadline. Warren Buffett prides himself on swiftly making up his mind and acting on it. He calls any unnecessary sitting and thinking "thumb sucking." When people offer him a business or an investment, he says, "I won't talk unless they bring me a price." He gives them an answer on the spot.

4. Spell Out The Deal Before You Start: Your bargaining leverage is always greatest before you begin a job -- that's when you have something to offer that the other party wants. Warren Buffett learned this lesson the hard way as a kid, when his grandfather Ernest hired him and a friend to dig out the family grocery store after a blizzard. The boys spent five hours shoveling until they could barely straighten their frozen hands. Afterward, his grandfather gave the pair less than 90 cents to split. Warren Buffett was horrified that he performed such backbreaking work only to earn pennies an hour. Always nail down the specifics of a deal in advance -- even with your friends and relatives.

5. Watch Small Expenses: Warren Buffett invests in businesses run by managers who obsess over the tiniest costs. He one acquired a company whose owner counted the sheets in rolls of 500-sheet toilet paper to see if he was being cheated (he was). He also admired a friend who painted only on the side of his office building that faced the road. Exercising vigilance over every expense can make your profits -- and your paycheck -- go much further.

6. Limit What You Borrow: Living on credit cards and loans won't make you rich. Warren Buffett has never borrowed a significant amount -- not to invest, not for a mortgage. He has gotten many heart-rendering letters from people who thought their borrowing was manageable but became overwhelmed by debt. His advice: Negotiate with creditors to pay what you can. Then, when you're debt-free, work on saving some money that you can use to invest.

7. Be Persistent: With tenacity and ingenuity, you can win against a more established competitor. Warren Buffett acquired the Nebraska Furniture Mart in 1983 because he liked the way its founder, Rose Blumkin, did business. A Russian immigrant, she built the mart from a pawnshop into the largest furniture store in North America. Her strategy was to undersell the big shots, and she was a merciless negotiator. To Warren Buffett, Rose embodied the unwavering courage that makes a winner out of an underdog.

8. Know When To Quit: Once, when Warren Buffett was a teen, he went to the racetrack. He bet on a race and lost. To recoup his funds, he bet on another race. He lost again, leaving him with close to nothing. He felt sick -- he had squandered nearly a week's earnings. Warren Buffett never repeated that mistake. Know when to walk away from a loss, and don't let anxiety fool you into trying again.

9. Assess The Risk: In 1995, the employer of Warren Buffett's son, Howie, was accused by the FBI of price-fixing. Warren Buffett advised Howie to imagine the worst-and-bast-case scenarios if he stayed with the company. His son quickly realized that the risks of staying far outweighed any potential gains, and he quit the next day. Asking yourself "and then what?" can help you see all of the possible consequences when you're struggling to make a decision -- and can guide you to the smartest choice.

10. Know What Success Really Means: Despite his wealth, Warren Buffett does not measure success by dollars. In 2006, he pledged to give away almost his entire fortune to charities, primarily the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. He's adamant about not funding monuments to himself -- no Warren Buffett buildings or halls. "I know people who have a lot of money," he says, "and they get testimonial dinners and hospital wings named after them. But the truth is that nobody in the world loves them. When you get to my age, you'll measure your success in life by how many of the people you want to have love you actually do love you. That's the ultimate test of how you've lived your life."

How i got my business mentor


When i started in this new path or career it was clear to me that i needed a mentor or point of reference towards success. Yes, i did buy some books and as much as i enjoyed and enlightening they are, nothing beats an actual successful person sharing his ideas and experiences.   I read this article before and i did here the same ideas from different people.

"While some entrepreneurs have had the privilege of earning a business degree in college, or even an MBA, more people have gone through the business course of life and learned the entrepreneurial ropes the hard way: with bad decisions and expensive consequences. "

That being said, i learned early on that even some business man didn't really have that "privilege", Yes it is a plus factor if you have that but from what i read and successful people i interacted with some learn the ropes  with experience. Most say it boils down to your attitude (I'll expand on that next time)

This is what i learned, if your going to get a mentor, work with yourself first. What do i mean? Set yourself first to be in the zone of learning, know who you are, what you want, your goals & targets then most importantly your attitude (strength and  weaknesses). You cant afford to do a "shot gun approach" and waste time nor equally wasteful is learn later on that " i think im working with the wrong person, his ideas and ethics is different from mine"

"The teacher appears when the student is ready" When you know what you want and what you need it simplifies your list of who you want to approach since you know what you want and who can possibly feel it in & that somebody worth 
emulating.

Dont fret as well to ask help or get mentor ship from different people of success, as long as their ideas and concept are similar then the outcome is the same.  Sometimes its the approach that is different, some ideology but different approach like that of the "Coach A & Coach B"

People get confuse easily if not the hardest challenge people face is to "ask for help". Its a golden rule to have a business mentor when you want to be successful.

Work Smarter, Not Harder

Suppose I am to build an artificial fishpond and I need to employ someone to excavate the field measuring one square hectare with a depth of one meter. I will pay you Php250.000 for the job using your own shovel. If you start digging now, you could probably cover the whole area at the end of the year. I am offering you a large sum because it is my obligation to compensate a laborious job.

Meanwhile, your friend learned of the offer and quickly applied for the same job. He plans to rent a digging machine for Php50,000 and projects to finish the job in just a week. Do you think he has also done Php250,000 worth of service? Who worked smart and who worked hard?

What you have just pondered on is an application of the Law of Leverage. The digging machine represents the lever to have the economy of movement and to give a minimum input that can achieve maximum results. Leverage creates speed and simplicity of work or activity performance.


HOW? The answer is LEVERAGE! Start leveraging yourself today!

21 THINKING PATTERNS


1. HAVE A BIG REASON WHY you want to be successful in network marketing that really matters to you. Let it be the driving force that motivates you daily. Let it be the wood for your internal fire.

2. PICK A FEW PERSONAL GOALS that really motivate.  Goals that you can accomplish by having success in network marketing. Write them down. review them often. Make sure they are YOUR goals & not someone else's. Use your REASON WHY to motivate you to accomplish your goals.  Having a big reason why & goals will drive you thru the obstacles you will encounter. Your GOALS literally force you to become the person you need to be in order to accomplish them.  The BIGGER the goals, the more you will have to go thru to accomplish them.

3. HAVE A WORK HARD MENTALITY.  There is a saying that ONLY time success comes before WORK is in the dictionary. The harder you work, the luckier you will get. Make sure it is intelligent hard work. If something is not working, dont keep doing it over and OVER again. Try something different. Not having success- TRY HARDER, TRY SMARTER.

4. HAVE AN ACTION MINDSET.  One of the biggest mistakes new network marketers make is they think they have to know EVERYTHING about their product or opportunity before they can work the business. That mindset creates inactivity. Once you make a decision to work a network marketing opportunity you should focus 90% of your time on action, 10% on learning. This is an ACTION BUSINESS. Learn the basics, use the tools, use the systems, plug into your upline who is having success and then GO GO GO!.  The only way to REALLY learn network marketing is by doing it not reading about it. This is crucial to your success.

5. DON"T JUST TAKE ACTION. TAKE MASSIVE< FOCUSED ACTION. Throw everything you have at it. Make a full commitment & GO. If you are just working network marketing as a hobby or to create part time income you can be casual about the business and that is OK. But if you want to create MASSIVE INCOME, you must take MASSIVE FOCUSED ACTION.

6. ACTIVITY is what create results. Not positive thinking. Do not wait to be positive before you take action. Discipline yourself to take action daily regardless fo how you feel. Do something daily to build your business. Have a daily ACTION plan of the activities that directly lead to acquiring new customers & distributors. Discipline to do it DAILY. Consistent, Persistent effort is MUCH more important to your success than beinga super hot shot.


7. HAVE A LONG TERM PERSPECTIVE. Stay within your budget on any & all marketing expenses.  Plan for the long term. Dont' take yourself out of the game by being a 90- day wonder.  It takes a while to build up your residual income base, but once  it starts coming in there is nothing in the world like it.

8. YOU MUST REALLY LIKE YOUR PRODUCT & OPPORTUNITY. There is no way you can have success in network marketing if you do not believe in & are excited about your opportunity & product. You don't have to have a wild maniac excitement. Just a solid enthusiasm that comes from really believing in it. A good question to ask yourself before joining ANY networking marketing company is " Would I buy this product at the retail price regardless of the opportunity?" A second question to ask is "Would I refer my mother to this product & or opportunity?" These two questions will save you a LOT of grief from picking the wrong opportunity.

9. YOUR BUSINESS WILL BECOME HOW YOU TREAT IT. And how you think about your business will determine how you will treat it.  If you think your business is P7000k a month business, then that is how you will treat it.  If you think it will make you P 100,000 or P1M a month, then that is how you treat it.  Treat your business the way you would like it to BECOME, and it will become that type of business.

10. DO NOT BE AFRAID OF FAILURE. You will most likely NOT have immediate success. You will make mistakes. You will not know all the answers. Realize success is built on failure. You only find out what works, by what doesnt. Through failure comes success. Learn from your failures, pick yourself and ATTACK your goals. Understand fear of failure is REALLY pride.  Success involves being humble enough to allow yourself to go through failure in order to learn.

11.New Distributors have a tendency to think everyone will buy their products or sign up in their opportunity just because they are excited about it. And when people don't, they are greatly disappointed.Operate from reality. The REALITY is MOST people will not join your opportunity or try your product. That is PERFECTLY NORMAL. It even happens to the TOP network marketers. they just don't let it emotionally affect them.  Accept that right from the beginning & you will save yourself a lot of emotional wear & tear.

12. BE TEACHABLE. You are in school. Everyday you will learn something NEW, if you are DOING the business. You have to be doing this business to learn this business. You can not learn network marketing any other way. When things are not working, check upline until you find someone who is being successful.  Listen to what they have to say. They are having success for a reason.  You will be temporarily uncomfortable doing new things as you develop the skills needed to be a TOP NETWORK MARKETER. Go through that process willingly & you will have success much faster.

13. KEEP YOUR PIPELINE ( lots of prospects going through different stages of being introduced to your business ) filled at ALL TIMES. The key is to be always be moving so fast you don't have time to dwell about failure or rejection because you are totally focused on some positive activity that is building your business. When you let your pipeline of prospects or customers run low, you operate from a position of lack. When you have a full pipeline, you operate from a position of abundance. With that comes confidence & when someone is not interested it does not affect you. If you only have one prospect in your pipeline, & they drop out, you are in trouble.

14. Ask yourself, "WHAT ONE THING CAN I DO TODAY TO MASSIVELY BUILD MY NETWORK MARKETING BUSINESS?"  Then do it.

15. The phone is is your BEST FRIEND. Master the phone & make a fortune. Be afraid of the phone & you will never make any significant money in network marketing.  Use the phone to follow up personally with all your leads & customers. Be yourself, be friendly, be enthusiastic, keep a smile on your face when you are talking. 3-way call your hot prospects to your upline.

16. HAVE A PROSPECTING MINDSET. Continually think about unique, creative new ways to acquire customers & distributors. And then do it. Thinking & action need to go hand in hand.

17. NETWORK MAR KETING IS NOT FOR EVERYONE. Don't try to talk people into the business or you will have to talk them into working the business. You can't build someone else's business for them. Your best comes from YOUR success story. Some people do not want to have what it takes to do to build a network marketing business.  Identify this quickly & move on. You are looking for people who WANT to do the business & are willing to do what it takes. Simple as that. YOU ARE A SORTER, NOT A SELLER.

18. START WHERE YOU ARE AT RIGHT NOW. You can't change your financial situation by dwelling on it or complaining about it. The only thing that is going to change your situation is you. Even if you are flat broke, you can become financially successful in network marketing. Just realize it will take you longer. You will have to use creative & sweat equity. But you can do it, if you NEVER QUIT. Opportunity ALWAYS comes disguised as work.

19. BE HONEST & AVOID ALL OPPORTUNITIES BASED ON GREED.

20. Look to GOD for help.

21. AS you have success & become a TOP network marketer, realize that you are not the ONLY person responsible for your success...BE GRATEFUL.

10 Words that can change your life


Words that i have learned earlier in my career and in a way i have appreciated more than before. Transitioning to a more relationship oriented and friendly culture is a phase that i think everybody goes through specially when you have been situated as the "Boss". 

Let me share words that are so simple that we tend to overlook and misunderstood.

BEGIN
Take charge of your life by beginning something
you’ve always wanted to do. 
If your goal seems overwhelming, start small.
“By daring to begin the life you’ve always wanted,
you become energized.”

BELIEVE
Set your mind to predict success.
Tell yourself you will succeed at whatever you’re doing at the moment. 

TRUST
You can’t grow if you don’t trust your inner voice. Trust others around you as well!!

IMAGINE
Your imagination has no boundaries...
“Dreaming about something is the first step 
towards achieving it. “ 

CONNECT
Relationships are what pull us through the hard times, and make the good times meaningful. 
Take time to nurture the connections that uplift you.

TOUCH
Humans need touch to survive and thrive. 
Don’t forget to hug your love ones. 
Pat your friends on the back
literally and figuratively.

FORGIVE
Forgiveness is life giving because it puts you in charge. 
You become empowered.

LAUGH
Laughter is a direct route to the soul.
It broadens your perspective, keeps you healthyand
makes an unbearable situation easier to deal with.”

GIVE
Happiness involves giving freely to others. 

APPRECIATE
Admire the good in yourself
and in those around you.
