I wish you a wonderful and successful New Year

by Charlie on January 3, 2012

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:

MLM is about giving first (pt 1)

by Charlie on December 20, 2011

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.

Network Marketing Strategy, never say never

by Charlie on October 25, 2010

What do you look for in the level of commitment of a new business partner? What is your own level of commitment to success? There’s an old saying that to reach the top, you must pay whatever price is demanded.

When a new distributor in your business says ‘I will try’, they are not likely to withstand many storms. Of course they may grow to a level above merely trying, but as they say, ‘Don’t hold your breath’. You should not give them too much time and energy till they prove they are worthy of it.

A greater level of determination is shown by the person who says ‘I will do my best’. Now that sounds good doesn’t it? But what if their best isn’t good enough? The bronze and silver medal winners in a race probably gave their best – but it wasn’t enough. [click to continue…]

Be Here Now – your last day

by Charlie on September 29, 2010

What if your time was done?

One of my mentors, Michael Dlouhy, talks all the time about being in the now. Ken Dunn recently posted a great article about how he would spend the day if he knew it was to be his last.

They are both talking about being in the present moment – be here now. Even though we have dreams and goals and plans for the future (and that’s good), all we really have in our hands is what is right now.

If you knew you had only 24 hours to live…. [click to continue…]

MLM Annual Convention – insights, pt 1 of 3

by Charlie on September 10, 2010

You have to be ‘All in’. Let’s dialogue because I know some of you will not like what I am about to say. You cannot build more than one network marketing company. When I hear people talk about their ‘primary company’ I have to ask – Can you be married to more than one person? Well not legally!

Not one of the super successful keynote speakers at my convention has a stake in any other company. At the end of October, as I mentioned in my post of August 12 (Network Marketing Prospecting – tips from the top) there will be a generic MLM mastermind event in Houston, Texas. Every one of the inner circle and each speaker at this gathering is a 7 figure earner. Not one of them is involved in more than one company. [click to continue…]

You are your Mindset – wealth or poverty?

August 29, 2010

Whether you are rich or poor is a choice and a mindset. You must take responsibility for what you have or what you lack. That may sound harsh, especially in the current economic climate. Many people feel things are out of their control. After all if your company has down sized and made you redundant, [...]

It is Good to be Back – and everything is perfect!

August 18, 2010

As some of you will know I recently had major technical issues with my blog that resulted in it being offline for nearly two weeks. I changed my hosting provider and I had to transfer the domain name. It should have been a simple process, taking maybe a day or two. You know how it [...]

Luck – prosperity or poverty thinking?

July 30, 2010

Are you still looking for the four leaf clover or the rabbit’s foot? Of course not because you know that the harder we work, the luckier we get – you don’t need that stuff. We are all true network marketing professionals. I wonder….. Do know how a lie detector machine works? You tell a lie [...]

Goal Setting – should you aim for the stars?

July 26, 2010

Setting your goals too high can be a recipe for frustration and disappointment. But hey, what about all those dream boards filled with pictures of beautiful mansions and exotic holidays? We often tell newbies in network marketing to set big goals. You know the stuff about it being impossible to ask for too much. I’ve [...]

Take a Break – are you out of steam?

July 24, 2010

When do you keep pushing on? Sure you have to work like crazy to get your network marketing business into top gear, but do you never stop? Some days you wake up feeling uninspired. Well I used to believe that actions followed emotions. You know the old excuse – ‘Well I’m not in the mood [...]
