DESIRE: The Starting Point of All Achievement

“No One Need Fear To Death. We Need Fear Only That We May Die Without Knowing Our Greatest Power!” ~~ Norman Cousins

                This is a very powerful quote stating that we all should strive to be the best that we can be in all aspects of our lives. However, many people go to their grave without achieving their desired goals. Why!? Because of a lack of desire; this is why. As Les Brown says, some people die at 25 but are not buried until they reach 65. Also, the richest place in the world is a graveyard, because this is where all unachieved goals and dreams are buried along those who could have achieved them. What is the reason that this occurs so often? Once again it is because of a lack of desire. 

                Desire is the starting point of all achievement. Without it people usually go through life accepting whatever life gives them; instead of fighting for what they truly want. The definition for desire is a strong feeling of wanting to have something or wishing for something to happen. The word strong stands out to me because it’s not just a feeling of want; it’s a strong feeling of want. With this strong feeling there is more chances that he or she will truly pursue what they want. 

                There are many benefits to having a strong desire. It makes you want to succeed no matter what obstacles you encounter creating a “win or die” attitude. People who have strong desire to achieve a desired goal will usually “burn their bridges.” In other words, they will never look or go back because what they want is always in front of them. The necessary activity required for them to hit their goal increases, and the discovery of their purpose begins to develop. Having a strong desire creates knowledge within them that defeat is not accepted unless the individual accepts it. Hope of attainment of this person’s desired goal is fully embraced. 

                People with strong desire create and initiate plans of action to achieve their desired goal. One’s courage increases in which they begin to know that they can be more, have more, and do more. In addition, a fierce, eager, and consuming hunger sets in knowing no defeat. Finally, they become disciplined associating pain with not working for their goal and pleasure with working for their goal.

                So, the next question you need to ask yourself is, “How Bad Do You Want What You Want?’ Also, “Will You Work To Win Your Goal or Will You Accept Complacency and Be Average?” Because you must know that if you choose complacency; you are accepting the enemy of all achievement.

5 Step Recruiting System

           Many Network Marketers get involved in Network Marketing companies with the hope of achieving financial freedom. In the beginning, they love the company, and the products or services that the company sells. These emotions help new network marketers in their beginning journey into an industry that may not be familiar to them. Although, the majority of MLM companies have systems in place to help new representatives achieve success however; some don’t. Let me clarify my previous statement. Most MLM companies have a system in place for new representatives, but not all sponsors and leaders within that company follow the company’s system.

           This is very bad for the new network markets because not only does it destroy any hopes of them achieving success; they also tell others that network marketing doesn’t. Top leaders in Network Marketing companies know this to be far from being true because if representatives follow a system of success, he or she will achieve success. In this video, I have outlined a 5 step recruiting system for any representative of any network marketing company to achieve success; if their current leaders are not following a success system or not helping them follow a success system. 

I hope that these 5 steps help in you new career as a successful network marketer. This journey to your success is worth every step along the way. Have fun and enjoy the ride.

Choose One Business

Here's Why I Chose To Work In One & Only One Company......

I know that chasing more than one rabbit will have you catching none. I choose Avon because of its simplicity & branding. In every Network Marketing company you have to do the same thing: 

Prospect
Recruit
Sell
Train

Then, Repeat the 4 steps over & over. 

Why do that in more then one company when its better to do it in just one!  

This Is Why I Only Choose One!

PRAISE: The Power of Pushing Up Others

Praise is defined as expressing favorable judgment, warm approval, and admiration. This is the one leadership quality you should give to others in addition to yourself. In Network Marketing, this is very important because praising your teammates causes them to produce more thus increasing your personal income. Everyone wants to feel special in some way or another, and praising people is way to show them that they are special. In Direct Sales and Network Marketing, in companies such as the one I work in; you as the sponsor have a financial interest in your Downline teammate’s success. In other words, if they don’t make a lot of money you won’t be paid a lot of money. So, helping them in every way to achieve success is in your best interest and theirs. 

                Here is another reason why praising your teammates is very important. At a job, most supervisors and managers judge people looking at them from their outside qualities instead of their inside qualities. However, as a leader, we must recognize our teammates inside qualities such as their attitude, desire, and determination toward getting the job done and achieving success. Once you truly see these qualities in your teammates; you will begin to see them as more then they appear to be. I have always said that everyone walks around with an invisible shirt on with bold letters written on it stating, “MAKE ME FEEL SPECIAL!” and this is what you must do.

Here are some ways to praise your team:

·         Always place the spotlight on your teammates, because without them you can’t achieve success.

·         Feed people what they want to hear knowing that’s what they need to hear.

·         Look for the strengths in your teammates and never focus on their weakness.

·         Be more encouraging to your teammates especially when they make mistakes.

·         Look to build better relationship with your teammates. People will quit on a job, but not a friend.

·         Make them feel equal. Just because you are their upline does not make you better than them.

·         Work with them using high integrity. You want them to ALWAYS trust you.

·         Live with your team during the good times and bad times.

·         Be very slow to criticize and very quick to congratulate.

·         Put your team’s goals above yours. Why!? Because when they achieve their goals you will achieve yours.

·         When you start a conversation with them; start it off by speaking of the “good” and not the “bad.”

                 Here’s an experiment that you can try for the next seven days. For the next seven days, express praise to someone using any method for example an email to them, or even a telephone call. Tell them something that they did or are doing very well. However, instead of praising just one person, praise seven different people; one for each of the seven days. This experiment will help you to develop your knowledge of understanding the power of praise. For more information on praising your teammates watch some of my YouTube videos.

How Dedicated Are You

                To find out how dedicated you are to accomplishing your goals in Network Marketing; you must first ask yourself some questions. Here are a few of them:

·         Are you dedicated to achieving success no matter what comes in your way?

·         Are you dedicated to working on your personal development by learning something every day that will help you reach your goals?

·         Are you dedicated to learning new people skills?

·         Are you dedicated to advertising for new customers and recruits?

·         Are you dedicated to prospecting?

·         Are you dedicated to doing everything it takes to ensure your success?

These are just a few questions however; if you answered YES to all of them then you on the correct path to achieve you desired goals in Network Marketing. 

                There are some many benefits to being a dedicated person. A dedicated person will out work others ensuring that the job will be completed. He or she will also make sacrifices to complete his or her task. For example, they will work longer and harder than everyone else. They are 100% focused following their set course until success is achieved. A dedicated person’s creativity increases in which they will seek and find new ways and plans that will help them achieve their goal. 

              They avoid negative situations especially those situations that will distract them from staying on the path to their desired goal. They are diligent. In other words, they are willing to show up early, stay late, and are always ready to win. A dedicated person takes pride in what they do and others have no choice, but to know they are very proud of working to achieve their desired goal. 

                Non-dedicated people view dedicated people as being very obsessed. Although this may appear to be true; dedicated people should never take this perception personally. I believe that more people should become more dedicated in achieving what it is they want out of life, and stop making excuses. Increasing your dedication is not very difficult. Here is a few ways to increase your dedication toward achieving a desired goal. 

First, research why you want whatever it is you want out of life. When you obtain your goal; what type of emotional response will you develop? Will you be filled with joy or just simply be happy? Second, you should create a solid plan to achieve your goal. This plan will be your blueprint and guide helping you to stay on your path. 

Third, you must practice, practice, and practice steps and methods that will help you in your journey towards achieving your goal. This builds confidence in which minor setbacks won’t bother you because achieving your goal is more important. Fourth, humble yourself and never believe that you know everything. Always leave enough room to learn something new that will help you achieve your desired goal. 

Finally stay realistic by never kidding yourself. The journey toward achieving your goal is going to be a rough dogfight. However, when you obtain your goal the dogfight will be worth it.
