To be successful in life, in Mlm, or for that matter in any worthy worthwhile adventure, it is imperative that you become coachable, teachable, trainable, and willing to go the extra mile if you seek to realize success. Just a few weekends back I was at a Company training event for my primary Mlm business that was thoroughly terrific. The atmosphere at Company events is something that has to be experienced it's not something that can be described. If you've been at events you'll know what I mean, if you haven't been there, then be sure to attend your next big company convention. You'll want to get as many people on your team there as possible. You'll be excited once you have. The effect and results will astound you. Since that event the last several weeks have been spent designing new presentations, mastering new information gleaned from the event, and reflecting on all that I experienced. I've been trying to keep the experience as fresh as possible in mind and spirit. I wish that I wish I could duplicate the experience I had with the same zest and vigor, bottle it, and ship it out to everyone. I would make it immediately available for my own, and everyone else's teams. Sharing is the next best thing, and so what follows is just some of the insights and growth I've had from the event. These are some golden nuggets picked up from the event: "You have to work as hard, or even harder on yourself than your business in order to succeed in this industry." I was shocked when I heard this put so plain and purposefully. They were not afraid to just say it. Most people, companies, Guru's, and trainers jump arround the subject, want you to sign up for their success club, buy their training, etc., but few ever come out and just tell you the truth plainly without something to sell you. "Your attitude is the principle of it all. If you don't master personal development you can have the greatest product/presentation/and company in the industry and still you will fail." "Remember people join people in this industry, not products, not pay plans, and not opportunities." "They join you." Having an indoctrination as a success mentor and author has always given me a little different perspective on MLM then perhaps many other "Gurus" and teachers out there. Most talk about systems, tools, and trainings, aimed at solving all your MLM troubles and leading you to stellar success as a result. All you have to do is follow the simple outline and plan, or so they say. And to a large degree that is true. It addresses and takes care of the outside oneself aspects of the success equation, also called the external action steps. The problem is most of the plans and outlines never provide a sound plan and reasonable expectations for the personal growth factor necessary in bringing up new network marketing recruits. These are the inside oneself aspects of the success equation, or the internal action steps required to succeed. If you haven't heard someone tell you yet that success is an inside job, then you need to start listening better, and even then that only half the truth. To really succeed in this industry you will need both, mastery of self (an internal job) and mastery of process (an external job). Success is not a destination it is a process of becoming, the effect of small daily differences made in our lives. A slight edge if you will. It is a slight deviation from the course of action that everyone else is on. Success in not something you pursue it is something you become. Most of it is an inside job and this is where people seem to fail dreadfully and then cite an abundance of outside reasons as the cause. Good sound business and marketing systems in MLM work. We fo not need to re-invent the wheel of Network Marketing Success Strategies. What we really need to do is start re-inventing ourselves to fit the model that already works. To illustrate this point the following questions all represent inside aspects of the success equation necessary for success in MLM. Answer these questions honestly and evaluate the distance between where you stand now and where you need to stand to succeed in achieving your goals. My guess is we could all use to get our self-improvement plans together. Do you show up for Success regularly? " Are you consistently making those small improvements and taking the necessary baby steps each day that lead to the outcome you desire most in life? " Does your attitude cause you to be liked, to be considered a person of value, the kind of person you would want to join and follow in business? " Are you committed to the long haul that may be necessary for your development and the development of your business and your dreams " Do you possess the necessary faith to take that first step before the way presents itself? " Are your reasons why larger than any obstacle that may present itself, and are you firm in your purpose everyday? " Are you ablaze with a burning desire in your heart to achieve your dreams? " Do your actions and deeds radiate integrity? " Are you ready to make sacrifices and pay the price each day to achieve your dreams and goals? To be successful in this industry it is imperative you understand one simple cornerstone principle integral in achieving great success in this industry. People join People not companies, products, or pay plans. Among other things you must present an attractive character and you must convey value to your prospects. They won't join you without it. You must have quality, value, and integrity to become persuasive. To do that you must convey primarily three things, Trust, Integrity, and Respect. Strive to be a person of quality, a valuable person who radiates integrity, a positively enthusiastic addition to every environment you are in and you will attract others. A 3 part foundation for your success: 1.) Master Awareness. To listen, sense, intuit, and basically become constantly aware of the opportunities around you at any given moment of everyday. My question is this: how can you achieve this objective when your primary focus is upon yourself? How can you be clear headed and in tune with your environment if your head is clouded with garbage and you're wrestling with internal angst throughout the day. How can the concerns of others enter your being and your consciousness daily if that space is already full and occupied? If you are concerned about others, their situation, and being helpful, then take the time to show it. People will notice and be attracted to the change in you. You'll become more successful as a result. 2.) Your Attitude. How is your attitude influencing the general environment and the people arround you?. Are you a positive addition to every environment you are in? Are people apt to feel like they have gained a new best friend after they meet you? Do you light up a room with your presence and charm or do you suck the life out of it? What would those who know you best say about you? What would they say about the energy you radiate? Is your attitude causing you to be attractive to others or a repellant? If you were to choose new officers and a board of directors for your new business venture would you pick you? You cannot overestimate the value of a great attitude that comes right from your core. It's value isworth more than gold and it is incredibly attractive to others. If you don't possess a great attitude that radiates from within you already, then I suggest you start making immediate plans to achieve one. No one needs to be perfect here, but all these elemnts of self will directly impact your results in this industry. 3.) Your Actions. Do you regularly seize opportunities to assist otherswhen you uncover them? Do you do your part each day to uncover the needs of others, provide solutions, and help people to achieve what they want most in life? Do you lead by your own good example, or do you just follow the crowd? Do you follow through with what you say? Do you posess integrity? Are you waiting for opportunity to find you or are you out seeking and creating it each day? Consistent action is the bedrock upon which success is built. Are you building your business firmly upon granite, or are you setting up camp in the sand? What would others who know you answer if they were asked these questions about your character? Answers to these questions are a success barometer for the inner strategy aspects of your MLM Business. If you will be honest with yourself you can fairly grade your performance. Chances are we'll all find an opportunity for our personal development plans to grow. The slight edge difference we make every day to improve ourselves and our results overtime makes all the difference in the end. It is daily differences compounded over time that takes us to the lives and success we dream about. Tips for that Slight Edge: Getting my mornings started right involves putting my attitude in the right place and focusing my energy on the right things. To help me do this I created a motivational video for myself. It's just one way I'm doing things differently to improve my results. I encourage you to try it out for yourselves. It's one part of that slight edge strategy for the day. You'll find a link to the video below, or you can just visit my blog site. You'll find it under the motivational video tab at the top of the screen. This is just one small perspective and off shoot that grew from teachings and inspiration acquired at the company event I attended.. Get yourself and your team to the next event and watch your self, your self-improvement plan, your business, and your income start growing.
