We all wish each other a Happy New Year and most of us make all sorts of resolutions and new goals for the year ahead. Sadly most of those goals are never reached and within a month or so the resolutions are cast aside.
This is simply because we do not approach them in the right way. Big goals and dreams are great but they will be achieved in small daily steps, not in spectacular leaps.
One of the keys to this is to change daily habits. Small changes to our habits cement whole new patterns of behaviour and result in spectacular achievements in the end but not in the short term.
Here is my wish for you:
Please share your thoughts and feelings with me as I love to get your responses
My mentor Marcello Lisi built his business to diamond but for 2 years he received no income from it for complex personal reasons. Yet he kept building and what kept him going was his team. This is a fantastic example of Zig Ziglar’s advice that if you help others to get what they want, you will receive everything you want.
Right in the midst of dark times is when our integrity is tested. Yet that is just the time to hold true to our principles. Such a philosophy and integrity is something we should all emulate.

You will need to find a network marketing training mentor now that you have started your business. You can find out the hard way by spending a lot of money over the next few months. But it is better to know how to assess a mentor.
To be successful in building your business, you must have a mentor. This business is about teamwork. Your mentor must be someone:
1.Who is still actively building a business 2.Who is successful and earning a substantial income 3.Who really has experienced the rough and the smooth
You do not need someone with an employer mentality. You want to find a good teacher. You want personal, one on one live professional support, not just emails and auto responders. Do some research; talk to satisfied network marketers; research the background of a potential mentor. You have expectations of your company so apply those to a mentor.
•You should be able to access archived audio and video programmes previously offered by a mentor •Your mentor should encourage personal development and endorse this by practising himself •You should expect a prompt response to your queries, either by email or phone[click to continue…]
If they’re breathing, sponsor’em! Well we don’t do that anymore….or do we? Many companies still push ‘recruit, recruit’, even if the methods are more tailored to the 20th century and the internet. So let’s look at some points:
Should you always lead with the business?
Indeed should you lead with everyone you meet?
Who do you want in your team?
Let me share my experience of a conventional business I started back in 1981. Some of you know I had a small construction business then. In my first couple of years I used to take on pretty much any work that came my way. Full order books; wrong strategy; not profitable. I wasn’t focused on a niche and I was doing work for which my skills were not best suited.
Then I learnt what my strong points were. I developed the courage to turn work away and I became profitable, without ever needing to advertise.
‘So what,’ you say, ‘this is network marketing.’ But there are parallels so let me explain. [click to continue…]
How important is a long term business plan? What should you expect to see? Ten or twenty years; fifty years? Of course things can change drastically despite the best laid plans and intentions. However, if a network marketing company has been set up truly for the sake of the distributors, then it is reasonable to expect a long term plan to be in place.
Am I being too fussy? Do you think I am scaremongering? As a mentor and student of the industry I have seen too many examples of people who set up a company, milked it and then allowed it to collapse. [click to continue…]
We all talk about having a system to build a network marketing business. Why is it so important? The point of building residual income is so that you can walk away from the business at some point. If your system is built around individual people, not everyone will be able to do the same thing. [...]
So you are happy with the company and the timing in the industry – great. Now what about the product? there are a few points to consider here. For one thing you definitely need a repeat sale product. I tried vainly once, to build a business with a single sale product. It’s kind of hard to build [...]
We always have to take responsibility for our success and failure in life. A mentality of blame is that of losers who always look for excuses. Nevertheless, network marketing is not always a level playing field. I know many people who have worked really hard, doing everything they were told to do and yet success eluded them. Think of it [...]
I’m sure you will say ‘yes of course’ and for most of you that will be true. But let me share something that happened to me once. I previously worked with an old, established MLM company and in the business presentation much was made of the integrity and moral values of the founder etc. One [...]
It’s November already; 2010 is nearly over. Are you going to be able to wear that t-shirt? I’m sure you all started the year with goals and targets for 2010. You certainly should have done so. Have you achieved them? For many the answer will be ‘no’. Now what does that mean? First there is [...]
