Today I would like to share with you a thought which struck me in an interview with Tony Robbins. It is a closed circle of parameters which have to be in place for success.

Success Formula:

One cannot do without the other.

We all have a potential.

Yet unless our potential is backed by belief and we take action next, results are not likely to appear.

This is a life formula which applies for every area – personal life, personal development as well as professional life.

It is surprisingly simple – yet all truths are simple – gurus, however don’t like it – they tend to complicate things to have a basis for rip off!

Observe the Golden Rule – follow the simple steps and have success in what you are doing. Simple doesn’t mean it is is easy.  

• Take personal responsibility for yourself first of all – to achieve more you have to become more!
• Strengthen your belief in yourself to be able to stand up against the harsh winds around you. Those who are part of the grey masses do not like your “light”, they do not like you moving on your path of success, they do not like you to “own your life”, to have your long-term residual income, to live the life of your dreams
• Take massive action – join forces with a mastermind group which reflects your set of mind. It will support you when the storms hit you and your convictions are severely tested. We will believe in you when you run into a spell of doubt about yourself and point the way for  you again!
• Reap the results of your unwavering efforts! Never forget the envy of the people around you has to be earned! When you live in the warm bath of your achievement cold winds will not be important any more. You have reached the ultimate belief in yourself and the way you live life and can generously reach out and offer a helping hand for those who want to follow your example.

Are you ready for the journey? Reach out, we will help you to achieve your dreams provided you are willing and coachable and we can afford to do it for FREE!

Life and all that is part of it is prone to accumulating clutter. We are so used to our house, environment, office, wardrobe, shelves, business, network marketing business, that we become blind to its subtle change, the blur that comes in and eventually becomes so dense.

We may stop seeing the outlines, the necessities and may wade in the fog wondering why we are not having the success we dream of.

Of course we are aware we need targeted leads, build relationships with our prospects, make sure they get training and are plugged into a network marketing system that duplicates.

The blur, however, will haze our mind and the whole concept may be or become overwhelming that we cannot focus on what needs to be done next.

In the corporate world much the same happens in companies and as a rule when things  are going down management calls in outside experts who are not “involved” who will see clear, who will give support in analysing which things have gone wrong…

Well you can do the same – accept an offer for free coaching, take a hand offered and follow the guidance.

• start with the basics and check your policies and procedures, your commission plan and consequently become aware of the strengths and weaknesses of your business. It happens that the entire situation is “not your fault”.
• check if the way you do your work is a system that duplicates. You need a system which will adapt for every personality type if you actually want to succeed.
• and check if the system you are working is up to date, because if you follow instructions which may have worked some 15 or more years ago – they are very likely outdated today

To make sure that your “love of the products, business, work environment” doesn’t blur your perception you need this outside input.

Warning:

The truth may not be pleasant – but better to know it now than later if you want to base your life and future on what you are doing.

You deserve the best – nothing but the very best!

Perhaps you wonder about this heading?  It is all about perception! Just imagine an ant crawling at the foot of a big tower as shown here.

    Imagine just for a minute what its horizon will be

   – how far will it see the world around?  Not so very far!

    And asked to describe what it sees. It will very likely talk about a mountain of stones, grass blades hindering its path and the like.

Now take that ant and put it on top of this very big tower. Perhaps it will even make the effort and crawl up – feeling the hard work of doing so..

    Imagine what its horizon will be   – how far will it see?

Let’s give the comparison with network a thought.

When you start out with a network marketing business, a good one, you will receive network marketing coaching from your sponsor and your team. You will read books on network marketing and perhaps do some mlm online training. Very likely it will strike you that a major focus of it all is personal development. They will talk about creating your dream, working on your goals, widening your perception. And very similar to the ant crawling up that tower you will have to put in some effort working through it, learning, wondering, perhaps not fully understanding the why behind it all.

You will be reading network marketing success stories, will be receiving tips and dig into network marketing secrets. You start building your network marketing business step by step. All of a sudden when you have “crawled” up the tower a bit you will start seeing the bigger picture. Your perception, your awareness of why you are doing what you are being told – like using your road to success tools, your system diligently will fall into place. You start seen the bigger picture. Your belief in your success in network marketing becomes stronger, you start understanding the reasoning behind the advice you are getting.

When you have finally climbed the tower of of awareness, of mastery in what you are doing – creating targeted mlm leads, helping other people understand what you have already learned, using your network marketing resources consistently and with persistence – you are overwhelmed. You understand. Now you can spread your wings and roar to success.

Grasp a helping hand, get expert training, remember the parable of the ant and get flying!

MLM software is expensive. That’s why most MLM companies rent their software. In most cases it cannot be adapted fully to fit their business model, and the distributor base suffers as a result.

Let me tell you a story about a network marketing company. They had a binary compensation plan, which is a plan where you build two legs – a left one and a right one. Unfortunately the software they rented did not permit changing from left to right and vice versa and they had to have programmers in to do it and of course that cost time as well as money. It took them about half a year to get it sorted out.

In the mean time there were people who had already built one strong leg. In a binary plan you then need to re-adjust in your back office and get the new sign-ups on your weak leg so that you get paid. You get paid on your weak leg! And in that case people thought that the new sign ups were going in your weak leg.

What happened with that company was that this change over just didn’t work and after a while distributors found out and approached the company to move the new people. The company hired lots of people to handle the changes yet couldn’t cope. They even started to charge the distributors per change-over although it was the company’s mess and in the end they stopped doing it altogether.

This is a perfect example of buying software which doesn’t fit the purpose at all.

On the other hand when you rent the software, you better read the fine print, as you don’t own the database! You have heard right:

You Do Not Own The Database!

Michael Dlouhy told us that he saw a downline genealogy for sale on the internet and he happen to know the owners of the company. So he called them and asked them what was going on – if the company wasn’t doing well. He heard that the company was doing great yet had had to rent the software and the software company owned the data base.

This software company made a nice lump sum of money by selling the data base to a bunch of companies. It had been in the Policies and Procedures, that the software company owned the genealogy!

 How would you like to build your business and then have your organization for sale on the internet?

It has to be one of the critical questions when you check out a company, if they own their software. Renting is a lot cheaper and most companies don’t have the 2 million dollars to buy it when they start.

It certainly is the best choice to opt for a company who had their software custom built! When the company had it built and owns it, the distributor base is safe. Instead, for starting a network marketing company quickly, the owners rent the software and are in business in no time. If it is your business – what do you do?

They know that network marketing is a tough business. They know that most companies don’t survive the first 2 years. So renting software minimizes the risk. But how about you? This is a dangerous secret!

What about another well kept secret: The software company will be a partner of the MLM company – it means that the MLM company builds an organization, a leg,  for the software company. It creates a retirement income for the software company on the backs of the distributors. Is it a problem for the owners of the MLM company to move all their orphan distributors underneath the software company so they receive a nice check? What a secret!

It is one more reason why you need to base your future on a company with an owned custom made software!

Do you start realising why education in this industry is critically important – especially when you are capable of building a downline well. Background knowledge saves you from having to cry over spilled milk  at a later stage!

To Your Success!

You for sure know the story of the old man who died in the floods. Here it is:

In an area rain caused the water of the river to rise. After a while the roads had turned into shallow rivers too. People were hurrying to get out into safety. A group bypassed an old man who was looking out on the road from the window of his house. They asked him to come along – they offered him their help. the old man said not to worry as he was sure  God would help him. A while later when the water level had increased in the roads some people passed bye in a boat and again wanted to take him along and again the old man refused their help. then finally when the situation in that area had become desperate and the old man was sitting on the flat roof of his house a helicopter passed bye and the crew wanted to pull the old man up, who in spite of the precarious situation refused yet again and kept waiting for God’s support. In the end he died in the floods. Coming up to heaven he met God and was very angry. He told God that he had been a firm believer all his life and that he felt his trust in him had been in vain. God replied: I sent you the walking people, the boat as well as the helicopter – what else do you think I should have done?

This story is very critical  for real life. There are so many people who by normal means are having a touch time making ends meet and yet they constantly refuse to step on the road to success. Some are offered:

• Various network marketing solutions. They often don’t even look at them and if they do they refuse.
• They are offered free network marketing coaching which would show them how to succeed in network marketing and again they refuse.

Many of them have at some stage in life met up with a weird network marketing definition and have closed their ears as a result not realising that they have been doing referral marketing all their lives.

Even as a child we know how to promote what we want and want to get friends join us at the playground, for an ice cream, a book, a TV program or what ever. Later in life we are hot when we tell our friends about a super bargain we have just found, a wonderful restaurant, a holiday location, where to buy the cheapest petrol and “umpteen” other things – the only snag about it – we never ever got paid for it.

All of a sudden, when this natural be haviour is brought to them by the name of a network marketing opportunity, as a solution to step on the road of success which may put them in a position to finally own their life, it is not being recognised.

Fortunately many people eventually  have an “aha” moment where they wake up, where they see the chance of having success in network marketing – although some never do. which group do you belong to?

This is the point where free network marketing training becomes attractive all of a sudden, they grab mlm on line training and finally get going on their road to success.

Feel free to be in touch if I have helped you to wake up – I’ll be honoured to point you to excellent mlm training material which is there for free – just to be picked up and used

Given choice, which would you prefer – time or money?    Do you feel this is a lop-sided choice which ever way you take it? Let’s consider it for a moment:

What can you do if you have all the time in the world: You can spend time with your family and friends, enjoy  your hobbies, throw away the alarm, enjoy nature when the weather is fine – what else can you think of you’d do if time at hand was unlimited?

What can you do with plenty of money: You can travel to all the places you fancy,  buy the car of your dreams, pay for a college education for your children, have the house of your dreams, a yacht, a permanent seat at the Metropolitan Opera – what are your ideas with a constant flow of  good income?

Of course you will say – wait a minute – how can I cope with the cost of living when I have all the time at hand I want and on the other hand  how do I do and buy all I want when my time is taken by earning the big income – for me there is no choice:

If I have the time I don’t have the money and if I have the money I am short of time. A vicious circle!

There are several solutions to this problem:

1. You can have enough money in the bank to live on the interest
2. You can write a book which becomes a best seller and you live on the royalties
3. You can marry rich or have rich parents who leave you a wonderful business
4. You can build a business which gives you a recurring income

to 1: Let’s assume you need a monthly income of 2000 Dollars for all you need – let’s say you manage to invest it that it gives you 6% of interest – how much money do you need to have a monthly income of 2000 Dollars – you can work this one out!

to 2: Well I am sure you were a gifted writer already at school – how come you have not  landed your best seller yet?

to 3: Oh – I understand – you much prefer to marry the love of your life than just anyone  for the sake of money. How many people do you know personally who are “professional siblings” – hm – none?

to 4: So why not jump at number 4 – building a business to create a recurring income. You have been doing network marketing all your life – even in Kindergarten you have already promoted what you liked – a toy or a nice playground where you wanted your friends to go too. Later in life you have recommended a restaurant or a special offer to your friends and family, that way creating plenty of income for the involved business owners – however – you have never made a Dime for your efforts – why not cash on this natural talent you are having?

That’s what network marketing is all about – you recommend products or services which you love and are being paid for the service. It is as simple as that. If you want the skills you require to do it as a business we are here to help you. the wonderful mastermind group founded my Michael Dlouhy,

“Mentoring For Free”. You can take it or leave it – it is your choice…

Looking forward to helping you achieve the life of your dreams,

What is a Mastermind Group?

As per definition by Napoleon Hill it is a group of people who work together in perfect harmony to achieve a common goal. Reflecting on this I was struck by the “perfect harmony” bit.

This is the most unusual situation when people come together. As a rule when a discussion group gets together it crystallises pretty soon that some of the group are leaders, others followers, again others are against everything as a basic attitude and others are listeners who do not express an opinion of their own. The result may be heated discussions and little to no results. does this ring familiar to you?

In a mastermind group working in harmony, every participant should participate, add his or her thoughts without fear of criticism, all put in thoughts  are to be considered as to their effect, positive or negative and then left to reflection. This way energy will build up. Energy of mutual understanding, energy of reflection, of tuning into infinite intelligence, the entire group will be connected in a relaxed spirit of reflection, even meditation. This is the environment where intuitive input can happen, new thoughts can come up, resolutions which not one of the participant would have considered on their own will come up and can be adopted in mutual understanding. That way a resolution was created! Of course this approach is highly spiritual.

Yet even in practical and tangible life this principle applies. Let me give you examples:

A car is a lot more than all of its components in one place. A house is a lot more than all the building materials it requires put together. A masters degree at university is a lot more than the compiled books and lectures,…

And a long-term, solid MLM business is a lot more than the number of its team  members and their turn over. It is friendship, mutual personal development and support, a common goal which is to be achieved by working together in harmony. It is a Mastermind Group.

We are so used to being immersed in all the news and information  brainwash on how bad the economy is, germs circling around and lots of other negative crap    which  is spread everywhere. We don’t even realise that our thought pattern has adapted to it way back. We tend to tune into the negative chatter when we meet up with people or discuss the present situation wherever opportunity arises.  What we need to become aware of, however, this does not serve us in manifesting our dreams. Is not a good use of energy. It is a huge handicap when you want to “own your life”.

Such actions have to be be dismissed from our thoughts and from our lives to make room for our creative connection with universe.

We think in pictures. Look at the coy carps on the left. They are luck tokens in some parts of the world. When you will give them second thoughts after having left this blog you will not recite a text on coy carps in your mind you have read on Wikipedia  – no, this picture will appear in your mind’s eye – you will see them!

You for sure know that some thoughts and behaviors hold you back, are obstacles on your path of life. May be you health is not as good as it could be due to your lousy lifestyle, or you have forgotten your imagination and replaced it with the negative crap you keep hearing. 

If your reflection continuously wanders backwards and you are stuck in wondering why this or that happened in your life  your mental energy is wasted as your past is history and you cannot change it. It is in thought, as it is in the outward world: You can go either right or left – you cannot go right and left. You can walk up a hill or down a hill, but you cannot walk up and down at the same time. So when you thoughts are trapped by the past you cannot create your future at the same time.

The same of course applies to your business/home business – when you keep wondering why this or that doesn’t work out or why you again and again failed to sponsor a new partner into your network marketing team  -  again – your energy is trapped by these thoughts and your creativity is blocked which can show you the way forward.

You need to change this habit. You need to focus on what you want. You need to give yourself a holy promise to “think forward” to reach your goals. Very likely you are tuned to be a person who keeps a promise. By linking the achieving of your goal with a promise to yourself the focus on your goal will become much clearer. To make it a step more specific give this promise to someone who you are accountable to in this respect. Put your promise in writing to make it tangible.

Such a promise will take your life, your focus and your results to the next level. It will propel you forward.
“You create the freedom of manifesting your dreams by stopping the habit of turning back to the old, negative conditions you are trying to get rid of” – this is what I have read recently!

Keeping your thoughts clean certainly takes commitment and repetitive practice, but it is definitely worth while.

It will be the way to take your life and business to the level you don’t even dare to dream yet. Be invited to dream. Be invited to dream big!

Credit has to be given to Napoleon Hill for compiling this knowledge.

There are four elements of the thought process which are beyond our active control. You can adapt to them, but not control them.

1.) Infinite Intelligence

The higher power which ever way you may call it. You cannot discipline it yet you can tune your thought pattern in a way that you can tap it in a way. We all know that the subconscious mind cannot be controlled in the way as we do our conscious thought process, however, it is the connecting link between our conscious mind and Infinite Intelligence. As it acts on the dominating thoughts of the conscious mind this is the way we can take influence on our communication with Infinite Intelligence.

2.) The Subconscious Mind

Programming of the subconscious mind cannot be done by giving it orders – no the only way are desires charged with emotion. The subconscious mind does snot discriminate however – it only recognises emotion, cannot tell however, is it positive or negative. It will carry out the instructions of the negative emotions just as readily as those with a positive charge. It is therefore a necessity to practise hygiene of thought – become proficient at keeping those thoughts focused in our mind and emotion which we want to materialise

3.) Sixth Sense / Telepathy

This is the broadcasting and receiving station for thoughts. Thoughts are things – vibrations and, as the frequencies of mobile phones, TV, radio and more travel through the ethers and can be received by the appropriate devices, also the vibrations of thought can be received when our mind is tuned to an exceptional state of perception. A mastermind group will definitely be of help in the process.

4.) The Five Senses

Our normal five senses: seeing, smelling, tasting, hearing and touching when looked at in a more specific way turn out to be deceptive as they work within certain given parameters. Take a film, where the wheels of a moving train all of a sudden seemingly move backwards or take object which are heated to different temperatures – when touching the skin one and the same object at one and the same temperature may at first appear cold when applied to the skin and  only a short while later may be perceived as warm when applied after and ice cube which was a lot colder. These tricks can be tried with any of the senses and demonstrates that you need to be careful when trusting your senses.

It is small wonder that personal development is such an important factor, that finding a mastermind group for support is such an important factor, that learning principles which can be grasped in spite of all these challenges is such an important factor. To succeed in life and in business we cannot go forward on make believe and assumptions. We have to learn to structure ourselves – we have to learn

“How to Think and not What to Think”

as Michael Dlouhy repeatedly stresses in his trainings. This challenge can be mastered with consistent training, at no cost – it takes your time and dedication though!
