I was talking with a fellow network marketing buddy of mine a few days ago
and the conversation ended up making me think about a few things that
I personally feel need to be shared.

Please forgive me if I sound less than positive
but the message I am about to share needs to be aired.

There are a lot of people online that spread the message of helping others,
giving generously and not expecting anything in return.

The message does get a little blurry because we really should expect good things to come our way.
However, I am specifically referring to helping others with the intent of receiving something in return.

Okay, I’ll be frank.

Some people will only help you because they are expecting you to give them money
or buy something from them….or better yet, join them in their MLM.

Period, hit the target, end of story.

Yet, their message is quite the opposite.

They will say with their lips that they are giving without wanting anything in return,
yet their actions are what really define their belief system.

Think I’m joking?

Why not call the person who is helping you and tell them this:

“Listen, I know you have been helping me for ‘free’ but I just want to let you know that
I really have no intention on ever buying anything from you or joining you in your business.
I just want to glean some great info from you because you’ve told me you’d help me for free.”

See how long that person sticks around.

See, here’s the deal.

If a person is really going to help you without hidden motives,
they’re going to continue to help you and be a friend
even when you’ve made the decision to not join them.

Now, does that mean they are going to spend ALL their time with you?

Absolutely not, assuming they have a team they are working with.

However, in my ever-so-humble opinion (haha)
I believe we should show each other respect as fellow human beings
and help others even when we know for certain there is no money being thrown our way.

Ask around….I practice what I preach.

People are important and they should never be seen or treated like
the next dollar that is going to line your pocket, our pocket or their pocket.

There, I said it.

Take it to heart and take it to the bank.

Those who help others selflessly and without any sort of agenda will surely shine!
