Dear Marketer…

Are You A Future Star… Are You A Leader?

Are your days filled with hope, encouragement, positive things, motivation, great people to work with, a great business …a vision and direction?

If each of us truly understand the vision of just where each of our company’s is headed and what Is just around the corner, most of us would suffer from a lack of sleep!  Isn’t it time you find that vision for yourself?

A vision is a needed element for success in your business! We would like to share each of you… a question! Are you ready to become a leader?  Are you ready to become a star?  What does it take to be one more than mere “Lip” service?

Let’s Take a Closer Look and See …
 
Our first step is to know every aspect of our business.  Do you know how to walk a prospect through your back office; or where to find answers to questions at your company website?  Are you familiar with the compensation plan and what it takes to accomplish different pin levels in your company if you have them, and what benefit each pin level gives you?  Have you shared your story?  Do you know what your prospects interest are, what their “Hot Buttons” are?  Are you ready to answer any questions your prospect or team members may have?

There’s and old story that states “A Captain knew every nook and cranny of his ship”, should we not know every aspect of our business?  When will you make the choice to look at your business… as a business and NOT just a hobby?

When you (share) bring a new person into your business, how do you help them to get up and running?  Do you get a commitment to be on the company calls?  Do you share what has worked for you?  Do you show a willingness to do 3-way calls for/with them or introduce them to you upline in case they cannot contact you or if they have questions you can’t (yet) answer?

Leadership is a Choice Either Making the Choice or  …Not Making it!
 
Often the easy way out is simply following those who are already leading by example BUT wait, pay attention here!  Leaders are looking for future leaders within their own organization.  Your downline is looking to you for leadership! Remember whatever you do, they will copy!  If you are simply a follower they become followers for the most part too! If you make the choice to become a leader, they will emulate just that as well!

Let’s Explore Some of the Qualities of Leadership…
 
  • ALWAYS commits time to learning about their business
  • ALWAYS works toward over-coming their individual short comings and fears
  • ALWAYS finding ones strong suits and traits
  • ALWAYS Shares knowledge with their team
  • ALWAYS avoids and protects ones team from conflict and negativity
  • ALWAYS encourages and inspires with positive attitudes
  • ALWAYS searches for ways to make doing the business easier
  • ALWAYS is willing to do what is best for the company and team
  • ALWAYS nurtures the ability to see the future beyond today
  • ALWAYS looks for future leaders within the organization
  • ALWAYS looks to see the potential in others rather than the faults
  • ALWAYS sees contributions of time as a privilege… NOT a chore!
  • ALWAYS makes themselves available to their company and their team members!
 
Folks, leaders without question, have the ability to say “I wasn’t right”.  Leaders have the ability to be open to ideas not of their own making.  Leadership is finding a wall and sharing with others how to go around it or over it or… simply blow a hole through it! It’s true!

Leadership has a “Whatever it Takes” and a “Take the Bull by the Horns” Attitude!

Leaders dream of the day they can step up on stage and take pride in how many others they are able to bring up on that stage with them.  The truest test of leadership is just one criterion.

When you look at your organization, how many people are successful?  Is your churn or dropout rate high, or abnormally low?  Do you have lots of people climbing the pin levels, or just a few?

Success Isn’t How Much Money You Make …But How Many You Help Along the Journey!
 
That is the ultimate report card on your leadership abilities!  Are you interested in being a true leader?  DO the required steps! It all starts with making the decision that you want to be a future star and the future starts today!  Then take ACTION… the rest will follow automatically.  There may be a few bumps along the way, but making the choice and taking the action are the only two catalysts you need to make it happen!

Leadership is the .04 strokes that separate the TOP earners in the company from the bottom taking just that simple insignificant amount of time and effort to accomplish success!  Are you ready to become a future star?  Are you ready to become a future leader?  If you are, then NOW is the right time to get started!

What Should Your Goals Be for This New Year?

Every New Year we all resolve to do better in our lives and in our businesses., but somehow we lose track of the goals and resolutions we make from year to year.

As we rang in this New Year and elected a new President, we thought of how we could stick to our resolutions and make this New Year a better one;  how we could achieve our goals and help others achieve theirs too.  This New Year, we have just inauguralized a new President and Commander in Chief and a truly historical one.  We as Americans have come together and achieved what some thought impossible.  We all have much to look forward to in this year and years to follow. 

Regardless of our economy, history proves that we flourish even in troubled times.  Why?  Because we try harder, we make necessary changes, we accept things easier and we have that sense of togetherness in most everything.  We make a point of always helping others and we make sacrifices for the good of our families and communities.  In tough times we bond together to achieve our goals and we are stronger.  We strive to maintain a “Whatever it Takes” attitude in everything we do! 

This is the year of change for the U.S. and for the world. This is your year to create a truly remarkable and “Positive” change.  Stick to everything positive, have faith and believe …it can happen for you and it will!  Together we can all make this year our year the greatest year ever.  We must stay on course, stay focused, be committed, be consistent, help each other and yes …even make a few sacrifices.  These are the things that help us achieve our goals in life and in business.  Use this year to your advantage and remember to help others along the way. 

Spark the “Positive” in yourself and everyone you meet and talk to.  Share all the best of everything that happens and share the lessons you’ve learned along the way. Reward and compliment others for their achievements.  Help others and you will be rewarded more than you could ever imagine.  Here are a few ways for you to stay focused and make this your best year ever:

  • Supercharge your self belief. Is it a book, music, a certain person, a favorite thing you love doing?  Look to those things that inspire you.  No matter what happens in your day, find ways to stay up beat!
  • Convince yourself that you truly do deserve to “Have it All”. We are all endowed with the right to achieve our dreams in life wether it be something material we want or a top position in a company. Rise to your highest level and then take one more step each time assuring that you can achieve your goals beyond your imagination but keep it realistic. 
  • Give yourself the motivation to go make it happen. Find ways daily to stay motivated.  Look for those things you love doing and that make you the happiest, then go and do them.  Don’t go for unrealistic goals, do everything one step at a time and one day at a time.
  • Create a stress free zone so that you can focus on what is truly important to you. Regimen and organize your work days, always taking time for breaks, meals, sleep and quiet time. Turn off your phones and Instant Messaging, don’t get trapped in negative converstations or chatting with people that bring you down and attack your sense of well being and positive living.
  • Activate the optimal thought patterns to bring financial prosperity to you. Think and attract only the positive in life. Optimize your mindset and use only the positive that comes into your life daily.
  • Keep you healthy so that you can maximize your opportunities. Eat right, pay attention to nutrition and proper minerals and essential health supplements.
  • Fine tune your thinking so that you not only know what it is you want, but you will also know exactly how to achieve it.
  • Unleash your own abilities to manifest the life of your dreams. You’ve been blessed with certain talents and skills of your own, use them to your advantage.  Find that one gift, something your passionate about.
  • Give yourself the optimism vital for maintaining the perfect state of mind to create even more successes. Find ways to think and do positive things only.  Stay away from politics in business and negative people. 

Regardless of your goals, these are the Essential Steps that provide the key components vital for creating success in your life and in your business.  Use these steps to your benefit and share them with others.  Whatever your goals and dreams are in life and in business …go out and make it happen!
