The Top 10 Reasons That Network Marketing is Better


Network marketing is better than any job, career, business or investment opportunity.  Here are the 10 biggest reasons why:

1.              Low-to-No Financial Risk.  Start your very own business for as little as a few hundred dollars—plus all you need to start and stay profitable.

2.              Be Your Own Boss.  There is nothing like working for yourself.  You can work part-time, full-time, where and when you want.

3.              Superior Quality Products.  Innovative, one-of-a-kind, high-demand and high-impact products and services that are not found in retail establishments.  Unlimited market potential.

4.              Impressive Tax Advantages. Legally putting thousands of dollars a year in your pocket from home-based business tax-savings.

5.              No Restrictions.  No Set Hours. No commuting.  No employees.  No high overhead.  No restrictions in territory.  No dress code. No franchise fees or royalties to pay.  No limitations on how high you can go!

6.              100 Billion plus International Sales.  More than 20 million independent business people in North America alone, where annual growth rates of 30% to 1500% are common!  Plus an expanding global market.

7.              Open to All regardless of age, sex, race, education, experience, income level, capital investment, family or business background, past success or failure.

8.              In-Depth Training/Support that promotes the highest levels of personal and professional growth, business and leadership skills and development.

9.              Immediate Income.  The very real opportunity to earn from $500-$2500 a month part-time replacing your full-time income in two years, plus the possibility of $10,000-$20,000 a month and more as a full-time career

10.          Freedom.  Living the “Lifestyle of a Millionaire” without the burdens, hassles and responsibilities.  Your time and your life are yours; more fun, travel, play, meeting new friends, enjoying your family.

Exercise Your Faith for Success


According to the Bible, faith is the “assurance” of things hoped for, the “proof “of what is not seen.   Assurance and proof are pretty strong words for something that you don’t have in your experience yet; for something that you can not SEE.   But when you think about it, it’s all a matter of perspective.

A great way to understand this is to look at a farmer.  He sows seeds and has “faith” that a crop will be produced.  He doesn’t worry or fret about it; he just expects that it will happen.  He has faith that the seed planted will produce the intended crop.

My employer deposits my wages directly into my bank account.  I have faith that the monies I earned will be in my account every other Friday.  I do not give it a second thought.  I “know” that the money will be there even though it’s not in my “experience” now.   I don’t check my account to see if it’s there; I know that it is.  The farmer learned to trust the seed and I learned to trust my employer by exercising faith.  The more one learns to trust, the more faith they develop.

Faith needs to be developed.  The more you exercise or use your faith, the greater it will become.  The speed that your dreams become a reality depends on the development of your faith.  Anything you can conceive and believe can be achieved, but it largely depends on your faith, the belief that what you conceive is achieved already.  It is just a matter of time before it’s manifestation.

Thomas Edison “knew” that he would develop the light bulb.  Henry Ford “knew” that he would develop the V-8 engine.  These gentlemen had no concept that it could not be done.  The farmer knew the corn crop was in the seed in his hand.  All of these men “knew” that what they dreamed was done already; they just needed to discover its reality.  These men acted in faith.

Henry Ford said, “If you believe you can or you can’t; you are right.”  Whatever you believe is so, IS SO.  If you believe you can be a millionaire and have the faith necessary; it will be so.  It is just a matter of time.  Just like the farmer who has faith in the seed, if you have faith in your ability to be a millionaire, it can be your reality.

Being a millionaire is not a matter of smarts; it’s a matter of belief.  What do believe about you?  Do you believe what others say about you?  Do you believe what your parents, teachers, or the environment has programmed into you?  Do you know that you were created by God to express greatness?  That greatness does not depend on education or smarts; it depends on your faith!  By faith, great things are achieved, even “unbelievable” things.  So, exercise to grow your faith and watch your life change for the better.  What is now invisible will manifest before your eyes in due time.

Faith will lead you to action.  Faith will lead you to take steps to realize the thing you hope for.  When you get those hunches, act on them as quickly as possible.  For it is the action that you take, based on those hunches, that will lead you to achieve the successes that you desire. 

Thomas Edison took over 10,000 actions to achieve what he believed was possible.  Henry Ford took over 2 years to convince his engineers that 8 cylinders could be put in a single engine block.  His “educated” engineers said that it could not be done, but Ford’s faith showed them that it could be done!  The farmer took action to cultivate the land and sow the seed knowing that a crop, with a yield far greater than what was sown, would come forth. 

So what are you waiting for?  Exercise your faith, follow those hunches, take action, and just watch your dreams manifest before your eyes!  Remember that in due season you will reap if you do not faint.  That is not my opinion; it is a universal, God-given law that works every single time!

Have fun!  I look forward to hearing of your stories of faith producing successes in your life.

A Lesson on Social Networking


I see people join social networks with the thought that they will build a huge business by promoting their product and service in the community.  I hate to break the news, but if you are looking to promote YOUR stuff on social networks; you will be disappointed with the results. 

Social network (especially mlm or business based ones) communities are for building friendships and contributing to the general good of our fellow network marketers.  If you are perceived as an expert and offer something of value to the community then you may have people coming to you for advice and help.  Through relationship building you may even build your business.  However, if you are just here to promote YOUR thing, you won't have much success because most of the people here are in THEIR thing and want the same thing you do: Build THEIR businesses.

I suggest that you offer something that will educate, encourage, and help others.  I write lots of articles (blog posts), offer videos, and free mentoring.  You can do the same.  As you are educated and grow and share what you have learned with others, your business will grow along with you.  Just remember; your success starts from within. 

Another thing I have noticed is that people sign up for too many things and get good at NONE of them.  They then wonder why they are failing.  Focus is important in social networking.  Pick one or two communities, learn, and get good at using them effectively before moving on.  Stop joining everything you are offered; it's a big waste of time.  Focus, learn, become a pro and then move on.  Too many folks are scattered and think that if they throw enough mud at the wall something will stick.  Rather I propose that you strive for excellence and stand out from the "mud-slingers."  Your success rate will be much better.  Yes, it's WORK, but it's worth it. 

I hope this helps.  May God bless you in your endeavors!

The Path to Success is Like Having a Baby


The path of success can be likened to being pregnant.  You come to a point in your life that you conceive a dream and allow that dream to grow within you.  As it grows there is both excitement and limitation.  You are excited that what are carrying inside will come forth in birth.  You are limited that by having to be watchful as to what you consume and the environment in which you hang around.

When being pregnant with a dream, you cannot consume junk such as daily news and gossip, nor can you afford to hang around negative people.  That could lead to a pre-mature birth or even an abortion.    For a dream to come forth as a healthy reality, you must watch what comes into you mind.  You must only consume positive material and hang around people who support your success.  As for me, I am constantly reading great books and seeking the support of my wife and upline.  I listen to awesome training CD’s on self-improvement and seek wisdom from above.

The time just prior to the actual birth of your dream is the hardest.  That is the time when most people want to quit.  The pain is sometimes unbearable and you may feel, “What was I thinking; what I’m I doing?” or, “Will if live through this?”  But that is the time to “push.”  Before you know it that dream that was hidden within you will come forth for all to see and for you to enjoy for the rest of your life.  Heck, you may even what to give birth to many more dreams!

The Echo of Your Mind


What do you see around you?  Do you like what you see?  Life is an out-picturing of your thoughts within.  In other words, you life is an echo of what you think.

When you go to a canyon and yell out something, what you yell out comes back, usually multiplied.  This is what happens when you when you think.  Your thoughts are vibratonal; they send out vibrations of energy.  To prove this, have you ever walked into room and felt what we call, “bad vibs?”  Those bad vibes are just the thought or thoughts of the people in that room.  No one said a word, but you sensed something that got your attention.  Have you ever sensed someone was upset with you regardless of the smile on their face?  I have, and that feeling is your mind picking up vibrations of energy from the thoughts of the other persons mind(s) and that thinking effects you adversely or positively.

Our thoughts are powerful.  Therefore it is paramount that you control what you allow into you mind and what you hold in your thoughts.  If you are in a bad mood, that’s just proof that you are thinking wrongly. Change your feelings by changing your thinking.  What you think echoes out and will come back multiplied.  Just be sure what you are thinking is what you WANT to come back!

If you are thinking my business is terrible, no one wants what I am offering and it’s just too hard.  Guess what, that thought will be your reality.  If you want to change the outcome of your life, just change the income of your mind.  Send out a positive thought and a positive echo will return multiplied.

The Bible says, “Deep calls unto Deep.”  There is no way around it.  If you are angry, you will attract more anger into your life.  If you are joyful, you will attract more joy into your life.  If you have an abundance consciousness, you will attract more abundance into you life.

Take heed to the thoughts you send out for an echo of that thought will come back multiplied.    I call it, "The Echo of Your Mind!"

How to Choose an MLM: Ask Just Two Questions


There are a number of companies that are getting nailed by the governments of the United States and Australia.  If you go to www.mlmwatchdog.com you will know what I am talking about.

This morning I was talking to a certain group of men who were commenting on some political issues and one of them said how easy it is for people to fall for the hype and not dig into the substance of what they see and hear.  I had to agree because I see that all the time in network marketing and on online promotions. 

People in general have a propensity to be attracted to the glitz and glamour of the websites they are viewing and never really ask the hard questions:           

·      Would any LOGICAL THINKING person spend this amount of money on this product or service if there were NOT a Pay Plan attached to it?

·      Does the income stop when the RECRUITING stops?

If the answer to question #1 is NO, RUN!  If the answer to question #2 is YES, RUN!  Don’t spend another second being duped by the Hollywood stunts of that promoter.

Just these two questions alone would save people from being overcome by the glitz and glamour; in other words, the HYPE of any “opportunity” presented.

Let’s face it, we are totally hypnotized they the Hollywood hype of these internet Ponzi (Charles Ponzi Pictured) or Pyramid Scheme artists.  They understand the psychology of today’s wealth seeker:  Get if fast and get it NOW. 

Wealth is not, nor never will be attained, legally, in a fast and now method.  You have to serve people with something they want and need and are willing to give you their hard earned money for it.  You have to be willing to give more in use value than you receive in cash value.  If you do that, you will get rich over time.  Of course, you can gamble or play the lottery in hopes of getting rich, but don’t count on it.  You have a better chance of getting hit by lightning and a clear day than obtaining wealth fast and now.

Please do not fall for the hype.  Ask yourself the two questions above and save yourself from being ripped-off by the glitz.

Do You Mean Business in MLM?

Network marketing is a business.  You must treat it as such and let everyone know, with pride, that you are in business for yourself. 

From what I can see, most people treat network marketing like a hobby or they just play around with it.  Then they wonder, “Why doesn’t this work?”  Network marketing works when you work! 

If you are not committed to your business, it will never produce.  Commitment is key.  Commitment means an engagement or obligation that RESTRICTS FREEDOM of action.  Sure, you joined network marketing to become free, but first you must be restricted to enjoy true freedom.  As a citizen of the United States of America, I am free, but my freedom was paid for by the commitment of men and women who risked their lives to fight for their freedom and mine.  To be free you must first be restricted; it’s that simple.

I tell people that you want to build a business that will give you financial and time freedom, you better plan on COMMITING 3-5 years of hard work to make that a reality.  If you are not willing to commit, just keep you job, it’s easier.  Yes, a job is easier, but you will never be truly free. 

Ask yourself this question:  Do I mean business?  I hope you do.  I hope that you will commit yourself to your business and the people who join you. If you do, freedom is just a few years away.  Take the time to build your business big, build it once, and build it pay you, your children and your grandchildren.  I wish you massive success!
