Choice + change = exciting future

There are many personal reasons that drive people to build a Shaklee business.  My reason was/is very simple: I was 31 and didn't feel I had a future. I had a good job but in my view that was it. For some reason I started to think about having a future and wondered what it should or could be. Once I saw the opportunity I decided to find out if what this guy showed me was "for real."  

I had to shift some things around to attend the meetings but I was excited.  It took me about 3 to 4 months of never missing a meeting of any kind to get to the point that the opportunity was real. I heard stories about the products, we used lots of products ourselves, heard many testimonies about peoples' earnings, and I met people who were the same as me in the sense they found something and wanted a better future.   My belief got to the point where I was all in. 

Here is my point: I heard an idea and got kind of excited. I had a somewhat busy life but I knew I had to make some changes. The more meetings I attended, the more people I met in the business who were doing well, the more my thinking changed. It was future-directed not job-directed. It was the opportunity that captured my thinking and it was and still is very exciting. I wanted to be successful with this company.

Does your thinking need an adjustment?   I believe that every person reading this right now can be as successful at this business as you want to be. All of us are where we are today because of previous choices we made. In this business it's not that everyone can't be successful, it's just that many choose not to adjust their course or adjust their thinking. Does your course need adjustments?  What might you have to change in order to devote more time to building an incredible future? Think about it. Make the choice that will take you to higher levels. You'll never regret making positive changes.

Enthusiastically,
Gary Burke
