The one thing most people want who are in this business is growth - personal growth, better health, higher PV, sponsoring growth, more time for themselves, and probably growth in monthly income. The key word here of course is "growth."
On May 1st, Faye and I started our 45th year in Shaklee. We have been full time for the past 43 years. We have gone through various seasons when things have gone well, and then there were (and still are) the many challenges anyone faces when they have their own business. There were times in the early years that I wondered if we would ever grow like some of the people we were getting to know. We wanted to grow just like everyone else.
What I have learned about growing this business is very simple. As I reflect back on what we did to hang in there and learn the business and experience that growth, there was one major fact that took place every time before the growth took place; many times we "stalled out" - everything seemed to slow down. The key that we discovered for growing was that we had to change something.
It wasn't about the company or the products or our upline, or downline. It was about us. We had to change something every time we stalled. I had to start prospecting again. We needed new people. We wanted to build a large organization and for that to happen, we always came back to the fact that we needed to change things and that's what we did.
Here is my question for whoever is reading this: do you want to experience more growth? If you answered "Yes" to that here are the next questions: what is it you have to change? What is it you have to start doing again? Do you have to work harder? Are you willing to do whatever it takes? Keep in mind that it is not about the company, the products, your upline or your downline. This is about YOU! Think about it.
Enthusiastically,
Gary Burke
