What is interesting to me is that most people want to have a better life - and that could mean many things. Let's say that one way to have a better life is to earn more than you basically need. If you earn more than you need - and don't spend all that you have - I have to believe that life could be much better for the majority of people.
When it comes down to becoming highly successful, the interesting part to me is that there really aren't any secrets. What it takes today is the same as it took decades ago. Granted, today we have better tools because of technology, but the fact still remains that the rules for high level success are the same today as they were decades ago. I say that because I have been in the network marketing business for over 4 decades, and I know for a fact that we have better tools today and more powerful examples of high level success to learn from, but it still comes down to working hard - doing the right things.
The fundamentals are the same today as when we got started years ago. Talk to people, follow someone who has done what it is you want to achieve and then be yourself, but do the right things. The right things consist of talking to lots of people, being a good listener, getting appointments, learning how to tell the Shaklee story, following up, attending meetings, conducting meetings, encouraging others and basically working hard.
You also have to understand that failing is not the same as failure. Failing happens often, but failure is when a person gives up and it's over. The failing part is what I wish more people understood. Small failings are lessons - and there are many lessons to be learned. So my thoughts today are: go out today, make up your mind to learn some lessons, and don't get all bent out of shape when you experience some failings - excuse me, I mean lessons. Whoever learns the most lessons the fastest are the people who are doing well.
Think about it: are you willing to learn lessons? Work hard, learn, have a great attitude and some day people will point to you and tell someone how lucky you are to have the business you have.
Enthusiastically,
