Self-Resolution

Abraham Lincoln once said, “Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing.”

What is the definition of resolution?

1. The state or quality of being resolute; firm determination: faced the situation with resolution.
2. A firm decision to do something: made a resolution to get more exercise.

b. A course of action determined or decided on: His resolution is to get up early.

Of all the personal traits to have personal resolution is one that is ranked up there where it needs to be if one is ever to accomplish anything in life.

You’ve heard the saying, “If you want something done right you’ll have to do it yourself.” Well, when it comes to wanting to be successful in any endeavor, I’m afraid this saying rings loudly true.

However, self-resolution or determination  is not something that people are born with.  I believe it is a learned behavior, and like any other behavior it can be mastered over time.

Begin to put this behavior into action one step at a time.  Be determined to get into physical shape by eating right and hitting the gym on a regular basis.

Begin a personal development regimen by reading books that build your mind instead of watching television or playing video games.

Begin watching your self-talk and be on guard when destructive thoughts of self- sabotage enter in and replace them with thoughts that are positive and constructive.

With practice all these can be developed over time.

Do it!  Because you can.

 

 

 

 

 

Why Some People Never Seem To Make It In Network Marketing

So you’ve joined a Network Marketing company.  You’ve marketed for a few months, prospected a handful of individuals, but haven’t sold any products or gotten anyone into the business.

And you’re starting to think that you might be in the wrong program and that its not the right one for you?

Are you thinking about getting into ANOTHER opportunity with “better” products?

Let me be brutally honest with you.  If you keep “jumping ship” every time you feel inadequate in a particular business because you feel you aren’t generating the income you think you should be, you will never be successful in any program.

Building the foundation of a successful downline requires patience, persistence, and bulldog like tenacity.  Commit yourself to at least 5 years of building.

People fail in this industry because they just don’t have the “stick-to-it-iveness” mentality.  They just don’t persevere long enough to see the fruit of their labor.

They become a part of the industry statistics of people who chase after “shiny objects” thinking that the grass is greener on the other side.

Here’s a bit of encouragement:  If you’ve joined a solid, credible, and outstanding program with great provable leadership, never ever quit until you see SUCCESS.

Continue and keep promoting like crazy. Jettison marketing tactics that don’t work and adopt systems that do.

Be patient. Be persistent.  And don’t ever take rejection personally.  You don’t need a thousand recruits to build your business.  You only need a handful who share the same ambition and goal of building a Network Marketing empire.

Network Marketing | Video Marketing

If you haven’t started implementing video marketing because of fear, it’s time to get over that because the future is here.  According to studies, 64% of marketers will be relying heavily on video marketing in the near future to dominate their particular space.  And quite frankly, I can see why that is.  90% of consumers would rather watch a video than read content through text.

The future is here.  Content marketing through video is where it’s at.  Every month YouTube caters to more than one billion viewers.  Obviously, video has a broader reach than any other type of medium.  It only makes sense that, every marketer should be utilizing this avenue to capture a part of that large market.

In an age of information overload, it’s important to offer content that can easily be digested by consumers; besides the fact that videos are naturally engaging.

 

The Enemy of Video Creation……….FEAR.

Attention marketer……….it’s time for you to step out of your comfort or fear zone and begin to think seriously about creating content through video marketing.  I’m quite aware that this can be a very daunting experience for some, but if you are to have a piece of the “pie” you’re going to have to get over your fear quickly.

There is always going to be a learning curve in any new undertaking.  Begin now to develop the necessary skillset in video marketing so that you can take your business to an entirely different and higher level.

Do it now!  Why?

Because I believe you CAN!

Network Marketing | The Importance of Posture

The Necessity of Posture in Network Marketing

Most Network Marketing Neophytes come into network marketing with the idea of setting the world on fire, which in a sense is an amazing goal.  However, reality is, if one has never been in our particular industry of Direct Sales, it’s going to be difficult for one to attain such feat if he has not learned a certain skillset(s).

As in every new undertaking, including Multi-level Marketing, there will always be a necessary learning curve.  Marketing skillsets will need to be developed if one is to be successful.

One of the essential skillset needed is POSTURE.

Posture in Network Marketing and How To Get It

If you have not yet acquired the skillset of POSTURE, here are some tips on how to get it:

• Follow a particular leader in the industry whom you would like to imitate (Remember:  Success leaves clues).
• Begin to read and study personal development materials in the area of leadership and be urgent about implementing the concepts you learn.
• Surround yourself with people who have the same mindset of building an MLM business.
• Continually watch the success stories (many of them on Youtube) of those in your particular company

 

P.S. ~ The Network Marketing industry works, IF you work it.  I wish you the best in your adventure.  Be consistent in the basics, and I promise you’ll get to where you want to be in the amazing world of Network Marketing.

 

 

Why You’ll Never Succeed In Network Marketing If You Continue To Do This

Why Many Fail To Succeed In Our Industry

The Temptation In Our Industry

As we peruse the internet we no doubt will come across many other seductive opportunities that will seem to be more promising than the opportunity you are currently building.

The compensation plan will seem more promising, the leadership, the products, and the opportunity as a whole will seem to be calling your name saying, “join me!”.

Here’s the catch, if you’re not fully convinced or committed to what you’re currently building, you WILL be sucked in. It’ll just be a matter of time.

However, if what you’re in right now never had a grasp on you to begin with, then may be you should consider getting into a program that fully sweeps you off your feet.

In the meantime, continue watching uplifting videos of your company, read material  pertaining to your company and industry, revisit testimonials of success stories regarding your particular company.

The Promise Of Our Industry

Remember, the system and modality of Network Marketing is effective, IF you are willing to “roll up your sleeves” and get to work.

If there are successful people in your particular opportunity, then there should be no question as to why you can’t be successful as well.

Our industry is not a “get rich scheme”, contrary to what naysayers often spout.

It is not an overnight gig where you get in and find yourself wealthy the next day.

It actually takes WORK, and LOTS of it.

However, if you are willing to “stick to your guns”, and commit long-term, and put in the necessary work as if you’re building an actual business, because you are, you’ll eventually get to where you want to be.

So, in conclusion, are you going to work your PRIMARY business like there’s no tomorrow, OR, are you going to continue to jump from one opportunity to the next, and the next, yada, yada, yada.  I believe you get what I’m getting at.

Make a decision, and do it quick.

This One Thing Will Change Your Life!

The Decision To Make A Change!

Everyone has the ability to do more and be more than what they are currently experiencing.

The question is:  Will you step up to life’s plate and take serious responsibility for your lack of action or performance?

Just decide this very minute that you will make a CHANGE.

I don’t really care where you are chronologically in your life, because that should never be the issue.

The truth of the matter is if you’re still breathing and depending on natural oxygen, you can make a CHANGE.

If you’re Ill, and taken with some kind of health challenge, you can still make a change and decide to be victorious, even in your sickness.

The ONLY person barricading your way to an amazing, victorious, and powerful life is YOU.

It just takes ONE heart-felt, one powerful affirmation of, “I WILL MAKE A CHANGE”, decision that can send your life into an AMAZING tail-spin of growth and absolute freedom, not only in mind, but in every aspect of your life.

Are you happy with where you’re “sitting”?

Are you happy with just being categorized with the “status quo”?

Or are you feeling very daring right now to make a CHANGE?

I say, Go For It!

You can definitely do it!

I have confidence in you!

Just be sure it’s legal.  LOL

Network Marketing and the Learning Curve

With anything new, there will always be a degree of learning that will need to be done.  Network Marketing is not an exception.  There are many resources that are available online that you can dive into to shorten this learning curve.

Here are 3 things that you can implement into your new business education:

1.   Read any and all the materials you can get your hands on pertaining to this particular industry.  Be sure to take notes on how successful network marketers have gone from ground zero to where they currently are in their success with this industry.  Be coachable as to how they went about in building their particular business.  Implement the tactics that they teach whether it’s old school or new online marketing.  Remember, they were where you are at one time.

 

 2.    Devote yourself to personal development.  There is not another industry in the world that will test your emotions as Network Marketing will.  Be ready to align yourself vicariously by reading books that are authored by people who understand this industry.  Learn to feed your mind with material that will encourage, motivate, and keep you inspired; because, believe me, there will be many a days when you will want to throw in the towel so to speak, and just quit.  When that day comes, and because you had already been feeding your mind with the materials I had just suggested, quitting won’t be an option, because in the back of your mind you’ll know that this industry is possible to provide exactly what you are looking for.

 

2.  Listen to Network marketing trainings.  A lot of this you can simply find on Youtube.  Make a habit to be on a quest to learn from the best.  It’s been said that “success leaves clues”.  This is absolutely true.  You’ll find many videos of successful Network Marketers on Youtube who are worth listening to.  Be coachable and learn what it is that they are teaching.   They are where they are because they’ve already gone through the fire.  Make notes of the who, what, when, where, how and why.  But more importantly, be quick to implement the things that you learn.  Don’t learn just for the sake of learning.  Learn to learn and quickly apply what you learn.

 

Many in this industry have had their start in humble beginnings.  The thing that you need to incessantly tell yourself is this, “if they can do it, so can I”.  Be persistently consistent, don’t quit, and you’ll eventually find yourself in that circle amongst those who have already made it.  Continue to be encouraged because the ride you are about to take in this industry is going to be a very bumpy one and sometimes very lonely.  So now, get moving because I believe you can do it.

 

 

 

Becoming Like Water

 

 

 

From a young child growing up, I have always enjoyed watching and reading after Bruce Lee.  Not only was he an amazing martial artist and philosopher, but he was also a great student of life.  You could sense his zeal and passion for life just simply by the way  he spoke.  I don’t necessarily agree with everything that he said, but I nonetheless enjoyed the person that he was and some of his sayings.

 I especially like the quote “…….be water my friend.”  (quote embedded in the photo above)

Life will deal lethal blows to every one of us on a daily basis in the form of obstacles and challenges.

Understand that, everything that has life, from the smallest to the largest living organism, will eventually be tested.  It’s not a matter of IF, but WHEN.

How you handle and perceive the challenges of your life will determine the strength or weakness of your character.

You will either flounder and fail, or you’ll fly and rise to full capacity as our creator would have you to.

Water, like life, is a forever flowing continuum.  Water, however, has the tendency to manipulate it’s way through whatever is placed in it’s path.  It will circumvent, go over, go under, power through, and even erode the substance before it to finally establish it’s course.

It has the power to find it’s own level.

Life was meant to be lived with power and strength.  However, a certain amount of our population has allowed, and subordinated itself to the hardships and demands of life and called it quits.

Life will give it’s way only to those who’ll have the courage to rise to the occasion, who’ll have the intestinal fortitude to grab life by it’s throat and circumvent, go over, go under, power through, until what you are seeking is in front of you to grasp.

The “water” of your life we’ll either find it’s course to a dead, stale, stagnant pond, or find it’s way to the vastness of the roaring ocean where life is forever present.

Will you choose to power through, or will you choose to just “go with the flow”  because it’s the path of least resistance?

The first proposition is what I’d like to choose for you, because believe me, I have stood and preached before a crowd of many unfortunates, and they are not happy with where they are.

Remember, the human body is composed of 70% water.  Continue to provide your body with this life giving element.  Disallow the dehydrating effects of your existence from living an awesome and powerful life.

Aloha & Mahalo

Get Committed to the Process

 

The Process is a Learning Curve

In any endeavor one decides to partake there will always be a system

that needs to be learned before one could ever be effective or profitable.

Learning any system usually takes time and effort and a willingness to

learn and implement new ideas, techniques, and proven methodologies.

Now then, I suppose the central question would be:  Are you willing to

stick  around for awhile to learn that system?  It could take a week, a

month, or maybe even longer.  Another question to ask is:  Will it be

worth your time and effort to learn the system?  If what you’re learning is

within the area of your passion then I would suggest that you stick to

learning the process.

The Process is Implementation    

Now that you’ve learned the needed skills, it’s time to put them to use.

Implementation is usually redundant work.  It’s applying the basic skills

you’ve learned over and over again until you get the desired results.

The Process Takes Patience

Here’s the kicker when working through the process.  If you don’t have

the patience necessary to see a proven method through, then I would

venture to guess that, you will eventually be among those who say that the

program involved with the process is a total scam, and that it just doesn’t

work.  All to often, particularly in the area of Network Marketing, people

quit before they ever get started.  It’s like going on an Alaskan Boat Cruise

and asking to get off because  the ship is only traveling at 20 knots and

that you want to get there faster.

It’s sad to say, but it’s true.  People, many of them, have a lottery

mentality where they want to see the results NOW.  People just aren’t

willing to put in the necessary WORK.

If you learn to get addicted to the process and stop worrying so much

about the results, you’ll eventually get to where you want to be.
