For a number of posts I have been speaking about all  sorts of odds in network marketing today.

Many of these odds have been around for a long time.

Hopefully some of them will eventually die and disappear as more and more leaders are stepping up to educate people so that they will no more be doomed to failure in having success in their network marketing business.

Time is constantly moving and everything in life is  subject to evolution – may it be positive or negative. Therefore, to stay “on the pulse” of network marketing today it is good to hear from YOU!

Let us know what your biggest challenges are!

Where are YOU stuck and need help?

It is the willingness to speak up about such issues which opens the path to getting some answers which may well break your obstacle.

You can speak up by posting a comment to this blog post or you can send me a private email with “my biggest challenge” in the subject line.

I’ll do my utmost best to give you answers and support if you feel you want it so that you can start your success in building a network marketing business today.

Look at a healthy tree.:

First of all the young tree has to be planted. To grow well it needs a well developed system of roots which keeps continuously expanding to guarantee good supply of water and nutrients to its crown. Of course the good supply will only be there if the soil in which it grows is fertile and humid. If all this applies the growth of the crown with ample of foliage happens automatically.

After a certain period of growth also blossoms will develop and eventually fruit – the harvest!

Now look at network marketing:

First of all the business has to be started. To have it grow well, a team has to be developed which of course will only develop well in a nurturing environment of teaching and of support, were all the requirements regarding tools as well as loving personal support are present. As a result the team will continue growing, the turnover will grow as well and eventually the income you expect to develop will be there.

After a certain time this income will be substantial and will be residual – the harvest!

Can you see the parallel? The tree as well as a network marketing business take time to grow and need a good basis of support to finally yield fruit year after year after year.

Now ask yourself this question:

Since you know that a tree takes years to really give ample of fruit for years to come, will you plant just any tree or will you choose carefully so that you can be sure the fruit will be all you want?

That’s why you also need to choose carefully when you look for the business you intend to base your life on. You want it to be honest and solid, trustworthy, legal and long-term – after all it is your life that is at stake!

Back in the 1980-ties when MLM first came to Austria I was immediately attracted. Of course nobody knew a thing about it and within no time the media were full of reports about „the new pyramid system“ that was intruding into the market.

Being a rational person I could easily make out that this business was no pyramid but a very clever mathematical commission concept designed to let the man in the street have a chance at creating an independent income.

I had joined a team who provided weekly meet-ups – mind you the internet had not yet surfaced for everyday use – so weekly meet-ups were good by way of training. It was there that I heard for the first time things like „you have to write down your why“ . It was a very unusual thought for me and I didn’t really know`what to think of it. However I observed people who did it and who actually wrote their „why“ down. Pretty soon they appeared on stage as people who had grown business wise and as a person and I was astonished to say the least.

I had no inclination to think about my why, as the reason for it seemed to be rather „phoney“ to me. I tried to learn how to deal with the products, how to give an excellent presentation and did a lot of work in that respect – I had turnover, but my business didn’t grow. I simply couldn’t understand it as I had done good work on all levels. There were these thoughts of feeling inferior for not having success and more. My sponsor kept on at me about my why and eventually I got so frustrated that I stopped going to meetings and did my turnover and no more. I knew something was missing in my approach but I still couldn’t connect it with my „why“.

Years later when I connected with another business and another group it suddenly hit me – my „why“, I realised, that was the missing link. I wrote down my why, did personal development work very much in line with what nowadays is covered by „the law of attraction“ and… I started on my success curve!

There is no need to get this aha moment the long way as I did – write down your why and if you need to be coached so that you actually manage to do so request help. There is no doubt that writing down your „why“ is a central point for success in network marketing – so even if it sounds as „phoney“ to you as it did to me in those days – jump through the hoop and do it!

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

YOU are the center of your life. YOU need to specify who YOU are and where YOU want to go.

YOU have to create YOUR Dream, YOUR Vision of life!

Does this sound different from what you were taught at home, at school or where ever? Probably. It is this attitude of putting yourself last which creates so many problems in life. Yet this attitude has developed over time. When you go into old scripts you will find the same/similar information pretty much everywhere: “love others as you love yourself”!

Putting yourself last has created lack and lack is a bad advisor, since we create in our lives whatever is on our mind most. So what do we create when we come from a mindset of lack? LACK!

Modern teachings all center around your dream and how to create one for yourself. This is easy for some, yet a process for most people. It is the environment which as a rule inhibits or in some cases even kills this process with statements like: “have you become an egotist”, “stay realistic”, “don’t aim for the moon”, “money is bad”, “why do you think you deserve this” – to quote only a few.

In the process of personal development when you are about to re-program your personal mindset you are very touchy when such statements  are thrust on you. Therefore it is essential that you keep quiet about your venture in the first place until you know that you want to really change your life and then to have support and comfort in an alien environment you need to mix with people of your own mindset. This will give you the strength to grow, to stick to your ideas or even expand them.

Best of all you join a strong group of people who have already mastered the new mindset or are well on the way to do so – a mastermind group. This group not only gives you strength and backing, it amplifies your capacity to move on.

When several people of the same mind set meet the energies add up and the capacity of the group and its members rises exponentially. In a mastermind group you have a safe space where you can speak your mind, gather support and ideas, receive comfort when life has been harsh on you and you need a helping hand to bring you back to your path of growth and personal development.

Lots of people will not understand this and try to draw you away, yet some people will understand and even join you as they have been searching.

When you google personal development you will often see sites where personal development is offered in context with network marketing – this is no coincidence it is so TRUE! Network Marketing, when done in the right way, is an industry which builds people and helps people own their lives. Thanks to Michael Dlouhy and his mastermind group we can offer support to many people who are searching and it is a pleasure to provide all the support needed.

The truth is the truth is the truth and the mastermind works! – It is up to YOU to discover how the mastermind groups works for YOU!

A lot has been written on this subject,  how to achieve your goals. At first sight it seems simple, yet once you start working with people you are in for a big surprise.

When I first started to talk to people I naively asked them about their goals and found in many cases a total blank. Goals? What’s that, should I have some, I thought this is about football and many other surprising replies. It is surprising how many people get depleted by life and their surroundings that they forget it all, as children usually know very well what they want in life and from life.

So the first step needs to be to open up a perception for this kind of approach. A conversation about dreams or what they might do if money was no issue in life as a rules creates a willingness to start thinking about this topic. This is an intermediate goal in itself. A first step of bringing someone back to life! With increasing willingness vision or dream workshops are a good way to proceed.

Part of this process is creating the awareness that “loving oneself” is not an expression of ego, but a necessity and basis for a fulfilled life as well as a foundation of being prepared to work on goals and eventually set them and go for them.

An excellent support in this process is the book “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill which was already written in 1937, yet which is very useful reading and learning even today. Napoleon Hill gives very precise instructions as to how to proceed with personal development, setting of goals and much more.

Although I have been doing a lot about personal development for years I find that working through this book within a mastermind group is a challenge and opens yet other perspectives and doors.  In fact Napoleon Hill talks and explains a lot about the value of a mastermind group and it is fascinating to see it happen in practice.

Once the goals are set and charged in the right way drawing them to life is a natural consequence. It can be compared to building a house – if the planning is perfect the actual building is work, but the outcome is set.

Starting a new site is like building a new house. For me it means creating a space where people join people.

There are many reasons why people join people: to have company, share fun, discuss ideas, seek knowledge, are comfortable, find friends, get support, feel at home.

You are welcome to come bye, read or share comments, connect by email or phone, whatever feels good and safe for you.

Enjoy!
