A good lesson for all…

When our lawn mower  broke and wouldn’t run, my wife kept hinting to me that I should get it  fixed. But somehow, I always had something else to take care of first,  the truck, the car, playing golf - always something more important to  me.

Finally, she thought of a clever way to make her point. When  I arrived home one day, I found her seated in the tall grass, busily  snipping away with a tiny pair of sewing scissors. I watched silently  for a short time and then went into the house. I was gone only a minute,  and when I came out again, I handed her a toothbrush.

I said,  ‘When you finish cutting the grass, you might as well sweep the  driveway.’

The doctors say I will walk again, but I will always  have a limp.

Moral of the story: Marriage is a relationship in  which one person is always right, and the other is the  husband.

Find fun- if your job is boring and monotonous you won’t stick to it very long. Add spice to your days. Do something different. Challenge yourself with something new. Have a friend join you for a seminar or conference.

When you got into network marketing did you expect the way to be easy and full of dollar signs? I did. Sure I was told I would have to work at my business. I was told it would take an initial investment.  But those dollars signs that were displayed in front of me made all that other talk seem like “whah, whah, whah, whah…” you know like Charlie Brown’s teacher? I knew there was noise being said but I didn’t hear it.

So now reality hits and you are faced with either quitting your job at home and going back to work in a 9-5 or you stick your heals in the ground and work. That is what I choose to do. I am not a quitter and I don’t want others to be either. The best way to achieve your ideal goals in this business while obtaining that marvelous dollar figure is to do network marketing perfectly all of the time. Perfectly? Now who can do that? I can’t. But with that being said I am on the road to success.  I didn’t let the ‘perfectness’ of it all scare me into no action. I am obtaining my goals little at a time. If your business sense is way off track change things little by little. Start off with something easy like time management. Most Americans are lazy by nature. We sit around and analyze too much of everything.  Just find something that intrigues you and do it.

One trade secret I do is just doing something. Most people will work hard at thier business for the first few months. It is after the newness wears off or when things get hard that we tend to sit back and do nothing. So train your body by fooling your mind, just do one thing a day. Soon you find that doing that one thing a day leads to the next and the next and the next.

Remember it takes about twenty-eight days to make a new habit. Take that first step, don’t be afraid because the task is big, little by little.
