Most of us would cringe at the mere thought of having knee surgery.

Sally didn’t.

She’s lived with pain in her knee for years and it got to the point where
she was advised to have knee replacement surgery.

Dr. Jacobsen said her knee was the worst case he had ever seen.

Well, the surgery went well and Sally was given a list of things
she was suppose to do on a daily basis to promote healing

so she could walk again and live a life that wasn’t compromised.

Sally had a friend named Joe.

Joe had the same surgery, several months prior to Sally.
He was given the same instructions.
Joe thought he could do it on his own and didn’t listen to Dr. Jacobsen.

He heard Dr. Jacobsen but when he began to do the exercises,
it just got too painful for him…so he quit.

Even though he was told he would never be able to walk again,
Joe was unable to push himself forward and face the challenge
of experiencing the victory that comes with pushing through.

Because Joe didn’t follow the doctor’s orders
Joe isn’t able to walk on his knee.

He’s reaping the “rewards” of what he has sown
and is having to take a good hard look
at where his actions got him.

He’s unable to walk, still has pain and is quite discouraged.

So now, Joe is facing an additional 9 months of intensive therapy
that is hopefully going to bring him to a place of full recovery.

There are no guarantees since he didn’t follow through
with the doctor’s original plan.

Sally personally knows Joe and didn’t want to walk down the same road.

She’s going to listen to the experts and follow their lead.

It’s an easier road (in the end) with promises of a
restored and fulfilling lifestyle.

But Sally knows full well there are going to be challenges….
there are going to be days where she doesn’t feel like doing her exercises….
she’s going to experience some pretty intense pain…..
and that’s when she’s going to have to LISTEN.

Listen to her coach and therapist who are reminding her of her dream and desire to walk again.
Listen to her doctor because he’s the mastermind behind the plan.
And last but not least, she’s going to need to listen to her heart…..
because DEEP down she KNOWS she WANTS FULL recovery!

It’s been several months now and Sally is walking without pain,
without a cane and on a fully restored knee.

What’s the difference between Sally and Joe?

Joe started out with an attitude of, “I’ll TRY and see what happens.”

Sally saw with her own eyes what that attitude did for Joe.
She took the reigns and said, “I WILL walk again!”

What about you?

Are you playing a game with network marketing?
Are you just “TRYING” like Joe?

Take the reigns and proclaim
“I WILL Succeed” no matter how challenging it might be,
no matter how afraid you might be
and no matter how much it might hurt when you fall down.

Be like Sally and listen to the experts.

We will ALL reap what we sow.

The Heavy Hitters will tell you that network marketing is all about SALES.

Don’t believe it.

Nothing could be further from the truth!

If it’s not the truth…..then it’s a LIE. Plain and simple.

So let me give you the TRUTH…..

Network Marketing is about teaching, mentoring and building others up.
It’s about studying people so you can help them reach their dreams.

It’s not about you.

It’s all about THEM!

Wow….what a concept!

Listen, people join people.
They don’t join companies.
People really don’t care about the founder of your company. (YAWN)
They don’t care about how many kids he has or what kind of dog he has. (double Yawn)

When you BUILD people…..people will build your business.

(wink)

Guess what?

When you build PEOPLE…..your retention rate will shoot to the moon!

You’re with me on this, right?

You know what I’m talkin’ about?

Sure you do! Because your SMART!

So if you’re ready to start studying people
and figure out exactly what it takes to build people up,
LOVE them for who they are and help them reach THEIR dreams…..
then give me a shout.

I’ve got some great things goin’ on over here and I’d love to share it with you!

Why? Because You Deserve to Not Miss Out on This!

Over the years, my husband has found a great fondness for gardening.

He’s a natural at it and has grown some beautiful vegetables to feed our growing family.

At one point, he even invested in a 20′ x 60′ greenhouse that was so meticulous you could have contacted any gardening magazine to come and do a photo shoot on the spot. The guy’s got a green thumb that amazes me and he truly enjoys the beauty of growing his own food for his family and sharing his produce with family and friends.

The picture shown above are the artichoke plants he recently started from seed. Most people would just go to the local nursery and buy the plants but Gerry isn’t like most people. He saw the advantages to growing his own plants so he invested in some books and discovered he needed to built his own propagation table, purchase the correct lighting fixtures and provide the proper amount of ventilation, water and personal care.

He did the research, purchased the supplies, built the table and followed the step-by-step instructions so he could make the most of his time and investment.

The results? Lots and lots of organic fruit and vegetables!

The reason why Gerry has been able to be so successful with his gardening is because he actually took the time to sit down and read what the experts have done to create abundance in their backyard.

He didn’t just jump in with both feet and blindly get started without gathering facts, buying the tools and the doing his homework.

Had he done so, he probably wouldn’t have yielded much fruit and he would have been very frustrated with the whole process.  No doubt in my mind, he would have been a bit grouchy about the whole ordeal.

Growing a garden is really no different than growing a business.

Most people jump into MLM with the intention of making a lot of money in a relatively short period of time.

Nothing could be further from the truth!

You need to do the research, get the facts and use the right tools to plow a field that will yield a lot of fruit.

Listen, if you are in this industry and you are flat discouraged with your results, I encourage you to read the
book that shed some much welcomed light on what is really going on in this industry.

You can choose to stumble through years of MLM trial-and-error….
or you can read this book first!

Lil Wayne is nothing short of a legend with today’s youth and in the rapper / hip hop communities.

Being the mother of 3 teenage girls, I’m not immune to the latest craze and am all-too-familiar with Lil Wayne’s story.

I’ve got to be honest with you, I’m a sucker for a good beat and while I don’t always agree with the message, the guys got talent oozing from his pores.

Well, I was up late one night and I happened to walk in the room when there was a special documentary about the life of Lil Wayne.

At that time, I had never even seen the guy and I joined my starry-eyed kids.

The guy certainly doesn’t care what people think of him and it’s evidenced by every ounce of his body.  He is who he is and he isn’t moved by anybody.  But it wasn’t the story of his life that made me really sit up and pay attention that night.

There was one little mention of something that will forever stand out in my mind because it really shed light on the reality of who gets noticed and who fades away.

You see, Lil Wayne was driven to succeed and what he did to achieve that dream was what amazed me.

He knew he needed to be everywhere in this industry to really be noticed and that’s exactly what he did.

He put himself right in the middle of the action.  He began recording with other artists and right smack in the middle of it all, there was Lil Wayne doin’ his thing like only he knows how to do.

A person can barely even listen to a piece by a rapper or hip hop artist without hearing Lil Wayne.  He’s nothing short of genius!

Like him or hate him, it doesn’t matter.  He is who he is and he’s certainly made a name for himself doing something he loves to do.

As network marketers, we need to learn a very valuable lesson from this guy.  We need to be right in the middle of it all by placing ourselves there, raising our hand and rising to the occasion.  We need to not care what others think about us and live out our true authentic selves.

We need to be everywhere at once and with the internet, that IS possible!

Go out there and make yourself larger than life itself!

Nobody is going to do it for you.

People can sniff out the ‘real deal’ within the first few seconds of viewing the social media parade.

But is wearing your PJ’s necessary?

There are a variety of ways to generate leads for your home based business:

1.    The Good Ol’ List of 100-150 Friends and Family
2.    Belly to Belly Using the Ever-So-Fun 3 Foot Rule
3.    Home Shows
4.    Giving Away Free Information to Add Value to the Marketplace
5.    Building a List Using a Lead Capture
6.    Blogging
7.   Article Marketing
8.   Email Marketing
9.   Cold Calling
10. Social Media Marketing

While I do realize we all have our opinions about what works and
what is a waste of time and money, I always encourage people in this industry
to do whatever works for them.

If you have found a way to generate leads that is bringing you high quality, targeted leads
that actually join you in your business and stick around, great!

However, if you have not found something that is working for you, we need to chat.

If you’re struggling in this industry and you are at your wits end,
I just may be able to help you.

Your time is valuable and so is your money.

Are you ready for a change?

Everybody knows that 97% of network marketers don’t really make a dime!

There’s an old saying and it goes like this:

“Hard work has absolutely nothing to do with progress.”

You can work as hard as you want to but if you’re moving in the WRONG direction,
you’ll end up dead in the water with a fish in your mouth!

Not pretty.

Most people HATE selling.
Most people HATE recruiting.
Most people HATE cold calls.

and

Most people HATE the fact that they spend hours upon hours each day
spinning their wheels trying to build a business online and they just
don’t have two nickels to rub together!

Sound familiar?

Yeah, I thought so.

Well, you know there are lots of people in this industry that want you to believe
that ALL you need to do is be more of YOU, think positive, visualize, be more motivated,
change your attitude, set more goals and create the hottest dream board on the block, believe in the products and create relationships with your prospects.

Add a few chants to that mix and you’ll have the real deal! NOT!

Whew, I’m exhausted already!

Look, don’t get me wrong. These things are all great but they aren’t going
to make you any real money.

But what you really need are SKILLS!

Most people want to make a lot of money and they want to do it as quickly
as possible without a lot of mess.

But without the skills, we all know you won’t be making the cash flow you desire.

Would it be okay if I pointed you in the RIGHT direction so you can spend LESS time
on your business and MORE time with your family?

• She PATROLS your home in search of products that are manufactured by ANOTHER company.
• She tells you to HIDE all other brands when you have friends over, because you really don’t believe in the products if you have OTHER products in your home.
• She tells your downline you aren’t a committed leader because you are tending to your dying grandmother rather than working your business.
• She yells at you for missing the Saturday morning call because you chose to go to your daughter’s wedding.
• She insists your company is not MLM, even though she is being paid on MULTI-levels.
• She believes your company is not MLM, because the company told her it’s not.
• She believes her company is the ONLY way to make a real residual income.
• She believes with all her heart that anyone who doesn’t join her is an IDIOT & will never make it.
• Her only friends are in her MLM company.
• She doesn’t call you anymore if you don’t make the autoship.
• She doesn’t have a life outside of her MLM.
• She eats, sleeps, drinks and breathes……her company.
• She goes to PTA meetings and soccer games with the intention of recruiting.
• Life outside of her MLM doesn’t exist.

Sound funny?  Think again!  It’s no fun working with someone who drank the MLM Kook-Aid.

There is FREEDOM in thinking outside the box of the traditional 9-5 and the people you partner with on your work at home journey are going to make all the difference in the world!

I’m here to have fun, meet great people, change lives and make a lot of money along the way.

How about you?

For those of us who are seeking to build a solid online presence,
we must develop a LOVE relationship with Google.

Sound a little intimidating?

Not really. Though it certainly is easier said than done.

But I’m always up for the challenge and I hope you are as well!

I’m going to give you 2 simple steps you need to take to get some action.

1. Keywords are KEY. Make sure the keywords you choose are relevant to your content.
The main keyword you choose should be used in your header as well as your title tag.
It’s best if you are able to use your main keyword on your page name if at all possible.
For example, if your blog or website is about “traffic generation”, then you would want
your domain name to be www.YourDomain.com/trafficgeneration.

2. You’ll want to develop a presence on various networking sites such as Facebook, YouTube,
and Better Networker. Write quality articles and post them to a site such as Ezine Articles.
When you write articles and post videos, be sure to use the same keywords and link them
back to your blog or website. This creates a spider web effect and you will gain favor with
Google.

Remember, this is going to take some time and consistency is key. Take action daily and really
take the time to think about what you are writing, the content you are providing and carefully
choose the words you use. It will pay off in the long-term.

“Do you not know that in a race all the runners run, but only one gets the prize?  Run in such a way as to get the prize.  Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training.  They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever.  Therefore, I do not run like someone running aimlessly; I do not fight like a boxer beating the air.  No, I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified for the prize.” 1 Cor. 10: 24-27

Application is key and while I do realize that not everyone reading this blog is necessarily going to embrace the Bible, I do want to share this message because I believe this applies to each and every one of us as human beings, regardless of our world view or life philosophy.

The pastor that delivered this message was invigorating and while he wasn’t necessarily speaking about network marketing, I am always looking for ways of sharing a message with you,  my readers,  that will inspire all of you to continue moving forward and run the race with determination and the kind of dedication it takes to win.

You see, those who are running this race must first have the desire to win.  But desire isn’t going to carry you to the finish line.  It takes discipline on your part to take action and do the activities that are necessary on a daily basis to push you forward.  Sometimes you will be stretched as a person and as a leader.   At times you may be challenged and there will be times when you might be emotionally afraid as you exercise your way to reaching the finish line.   In fact, there will even be times when you feel exhausted and frustrated, but you must continue moving forward if you intend to claim victory.

You must have the desire to win the race and the discipline to carry that desire through to the end. You must also have a determined spirit to press forward to the finish line.  It’s that determination that will give you laser focus.  While life happens, you will be able to see the bigger picture and press on in the midst of everything that is happening around you because you know where you are going and are taking action to reach your ultimate goal.  You will be like the race horse with blinders on, completely un-distracted.   You won’t make excuses as you keep your eyes on the prize.

There is also the aspect of self denial.  Have you ever stopped to take a look at yyour leaders?  Those who are running the race understand that there are going to be days when they don’t “feel” like working, yet they continue to move forward.  There is without certainly an element of sacrifice that comes with reaching your goals and sometimes that means denying yourself, keeping your head down and taking the action that is necessary to reach the finish line.

On a side note, I also want to challenge you to the realization that this really isn’t about you.  This is about helping others who are running with you and while I realize an athlete isn’t necessarily going to take an interest in helping others win, this certainly applies in network marketing.  This simple act demonstrates the character and without the character quality of putting others before yourself, you simply won’t win.  Every great leader who is laser focused on claiming victory will freely give to those who want to run alongside them.

While there is only one ‘winner’ in a competition, there will be many winners in this industry.  However, it isn’t going to be easy and the victory is certainly reserved for those who have the desire, exercise discipline, have the determination and have learned to deny themselves in order to help others along the way.  But above all,  it is your character as a leader that will allow you to shine and cross the finish line.
