What are you married to?

A fellow network marketer ask me that one day. Are you married to your current business? I told him no and he said to me I should take a look at his opportunity. I told him no thanks, I am happy with my current business.  I then asked him to take a look at mine, he said no. He is currently laser focused on his.
Well the moral of the story is we all do it but get upset when someone leaves a company. I will be honest I did get upset when some leaders left my company. I was upset for the simple fact that I was following them. At the end of the day I did still wish them the best because they have their own reasons for leaving. Now there are some that you can’t continue to follow because they are mainly focus on the primary business that they are in. Then there are some that will give you tools you can use for any network marketing company, which is great.
Now if you’re reading this and your mentor left your  primary company,
pay attention to this. We all look to get married and some of us get to say I do. Unfortunately for us it doesn’t always workout how we envisioned it. Well that is probably what happen to your mentor he or she just didn’t think it was working anymore. Yes you might get to the same red light with your mentor but always remember this he or she might have to take a left while you have to take a right at the light. All you can do is wish them the best.
We do have those other people that are looking for marriage for other reasons. The ones that cant stay in one company because the newest thing will be the one they walk down the aisle with. Now if you notice that a specific person is doing that, you can probably get some great tips from him or her. Okay I will be honest probably not but at the end of the day it is their personal decision to do that. You have a decision you must make on your own. Do you continue following them or not? Here is the ultimate catch 22. Remember your goal is to be a leader in this industry.
Now every leader of course must be a follower. The best part is you choose who to follow. No one will force you to follow them. If you see that they have value to give, and you like how they do it, and you can get a few pointers then follow. Now here is another great tip, it is okay to have more than one mentor! There are so many great leaders in this industry that offer a lot of value so don’t be afraid to have more than one.
Okay back to marriage. I took the time to marry the only thing that will get me to where I want to be. I said I do to SUCCESS! I know together success and I will get far in life.
She is the only one that will lead me to my dreams. Now all she requires of me is to work hard and stay laser focused. She also wants determination, overcoming obstacles and for now she doesn’t allow me to sleep.
Now we all seek success in life but you have to always remember this, the path that was meant for your life is not necessarily  the path for others.
Now I ask you what are you married to?
Stay blessed,

Options: Do you Really Have them?

Do you really have an option in your life? The million dollar question that I hope this post will help you understand. I spoke to a future business partner this week and I shared with her the options we have in life. I personally believe  for the most of us we have four options in life.

Option one would be the one you heard about since, no before you probably could walk. Option one would be that college degree we are told is the key to succeed in life. You go to school get a degree and live that wonderful life you always wanted. Now this is a great one because this provides us with doctors, dentist, lawyers and many more.

Option two has great things to offer as well. This is where you get a regular job and try to move up in the company. When you choose this one you don’t necessarily have to get a degree to get up in the company. You can start out at any position and with hard work and determination you will slowly but surely move up in the company. This is also a magnificent option because we do have great people in positions that helps others.

Option three. The one that not a lot of us will say we have picked for our lives but we have. There comes a time in most people lives where when the lights are on and food is on the table they are happy with life. Now here is the great part, some of us wake up from this and make another choice because we realize that there is more to life than just having food on the table and lights on. For example they want to travel the world, they want to take a vacation and actually go somewhere also finally they realize in order for them to accomplish the things in life this option has to be left behind. Now the sad part, a lot of us stick to this option and we don’t change anything in life. Another thing is most of life is spent blaming others for where they are and there are a lot of could haves and should haves. Little do they realize that they are still alive and just existing is not enough.

Option four is become an entrepreneur and go after everything you have ever dreamed about. Here is the funny thing most of us would say we want this option but only a few of us take actions towards making it a reality. I understand because this option consist of having a lot of doubters. When this option is presented to others they wont receive it very well for the simple fact that they don’t see what you see. YOU have the VISION, YOU have the DETERMINATION, and YOU have to make it HAPPEN.

I informed her that for the most of us we get to decide what we want. The reason I say that is for the fact that we have the ability to CHANGE things in our lives. The most important step to change is first changing your mindset. If you really want the option you picked you have to first make up your mind.

The question now is internet world what do you think? Do you agree with me or disagree with the options we have in life.? Your opinions are highly appreciated.

Stay blessed,

WHAT IS FEAR DOING TO YOU

Is it FEAR or FAITH. Which one leads your life? We all have fear and most have faith as a part of their lives but how we handle them determines how far we go in life.

Fear is defined as a distressing emotion aroused by impending danger, evil, pain, etc., whether the threat is real or imagined; the feeling or condition of being afraid. For most of us fear is imagined and only an illusion we put in our heads that prevents us from taking the next step.

We all have that feeling in our lives where we see what is going to happen next and that prevents us from taking the next step. Unfortunately for us we our not fortune tellers or psychics well most of us anyway but we see the future and we let what we THINK will happen stop us from doing what is necessary to accomplish what we want in life.

It is totally okay to have fear in your life if you use it the right way. For example I am sure by now you know that when you turn the stove on it gets hot. Due to the fear of getting burnt you will not touch the oven when it is hot. Well what about the things you don’t know for sure. Lets say you see a potential prospect and you take time to think and assume what they will do next. He wont receive me well he will just tell me he is not interested. As you do your psychic work before you know it your prospect is long gone and you will never know what would have happened if you just said something.

You can also use fear as a way of motivation. I have all types of relationships. I am a dad, son, husband, uncle and the list goes on and on but I fear that I will let some of those people in my life down. What do I do about it? I make sure in those relationships I speak from the heart and I do the best I can do at all times.

Like I said earlier we all have it in our lives you just have to know when and how to control it. If it is preventing you from the things you want in your life you need a change. You have to understand that you have to overcome some of those nightmares that are in your head and take actions to see what will really happen.

Faith what is it? When most of us think of faith we associate it with religious beliefs. I am one that associate it with religious beliefs. Does that mean that you have to be religious to have faith? No I don’t think so.

Well faith can be defined as confidence or trust in a person or thing. Another definition that I really like is belief that is not based on proof. You believe in it but you cant proof it YET.

If I asked you if you had faith chances are you would tell me yes. Well what does your actions say about faith. Remember one of the definitions is confidence or trust in a person or thing.

You have to have confidence in yourself and in what your doing. Well Mack I don’t have confidence in myself. Ok well just like most things in life you can always build more of it. You can build it if you take the proper ACTIONS.

One of the biggest problems I see with people who have faith is lack of ACTION. Most of us believe that just because we have faith things will take care of itself. No sorry you have to take care of a lot and faith will meet you half way.

It doesn’t work if you are a couch potato and you just keep telling yourself that you will be successful in life as you watch your favorite television show. YOU HAVE TO TAKE ACTION. Yes there will be obstacles SO WHAT. That is one of the best parts of getting what you want in life. When you get what you want you look back at what you had to overcome and appreciate what you have.

Now back to the moral of the story Which one is leading your life? If you are leading your life with a lot of fear you need to change. Remember you have one life to live so you have to get a lot of doubt out of the way so your dreams can come true. Now if you have a lot of faith great but remember this faith without work is dead.

Happy New Year……..What is on Your Menu

As one comes to an end another begins. It is a new year so if I didn’t tell you before here we go again HAPPY NEW YEAR.

We all have had them and most of us still have them NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS. Majority of us have them and make them to better our lives. Most of the resolutions consist of something we feel we could have achieved in the previous year. Unfortunately for some most of the resolutions for 2011 are the same as 2010. 2010 is over so it is okay you get a fresh start but don’t LIE TO YOURSELF.

One of the biggest problems we have is the fact that we don’t learn from past experiences as far as new year resolutions are concerned.

Last year you had some resolutions and you didn’t even get to March and you quit. Yes you did don’t lie. Like I said earlier STOP LYING.

Learn from your mistakes from last year and improve it, so majority of your GOALS for this year will be accomplished.

One thing you can do is get an accountability partner. A few weeks before the new year a friend of mine called and asked me for help. She told me that she wanted to do something for others. She had an idea of what she wanted to accomplish but wanted someone to keep an eye on her. I told her okay I will call you every Friday and see if you did anything for that week. It has been three weeks and going good so far.

Last week when I called she told me it was a little harder than she thought. I told her that you knew it would be hard that is why I am here to help you. She informed me that she was running out of ideas and she was busy. I said that is okay but what she can do is take an hour out of her day and just focus on different ideas and I am sure she can come up with something. She thanked me and said she would do that.

Now I must WARN YOU, don’t just pick anyone to do this with. Pick someone that is dependable and reliable because we all have friends but some are more reliable than others. Also once again don’t do this if YOU CANT HANDLE THE TRUTH. The reason I say that is because you need a friend that will LET YOU HAVE IT. When I say let you have it, what I mean is they will be brutally honest when he or she see you slacking.

Another thing don’t get DEFENSIVE when their doing their job. If your not doing what you said YOU WOULD DOING then you must accept the truth and step it up.

One more thing that can help is to have short term GOALS like I said earlier don’t lie. For instance my goal for January is to weigh 200 by the end of the month. I only weigh 210 now. I know I know that is easy ten pounds but I have had trouble sticking to my workouts. Based on what I have learned from last year I wont lie to myself but at the same time I will still have goals. My goal in the physical part of my life is to stick to my workout plan to March. I know if I stick to the workout plans the weight will drop off of me. I am not looking at the entire year just to March and I will go from there.

Once again,

Stay blessed,

IT is a DISEASE but….. there is a CURE

We all have had this disease. It is a part of life. The key is to get cured and cured fast because if you don’t it can really do damage to your future. Some of us down play it and others totally deny it. The biggest problem I feel we have with it is the denial part.

Everyone has issues in their life. Only a few can actually admit they have a problem and then try to overcome that same issue.That is the problem with this disease, a lot of us never overcome it. We talk about it and we mention it when it is talked about. When it is time to try to do something about this disease we all tend to run.

Like most sicknesses this is contagious. If you are around the people that have this disease you can get it too. A part of the antidote is to stay away from people who carry this disorder. What is this disease I am mentioning?…….Procrastination!

Yes, it is a disease. If your not careful it can do a lot of damage to your future. A lot of us tend to say those deadly words………I WILL DO IT TOMORROW. The sad thing about this is the fact that when we say it we don’t seem to make it a big deal.

What is the cure you may ask? Well lets take it one step at a time. The first step to overcoming this disease is to admit it. YOU ARE A PROCRASTINATOR.

I know it was probably hard to admit. It is actually very hard to admit but don’t worry the hard part is done.

The second part consists of having a pen and a sheet of paper.

You have to start writing what you plan to do the next day a day in advance. Don’t worry it is easier than you think. The third step is a little more difficult.

Now you have to do what you wrote down when that day comes.

You have to give it your all. I know it will be difficult but stay focused. Make sure to check them off as you do them so you can see that it is possible to accomplish the things you wrote down.

Now to the part where you have to stay away from other procrastinators. It will be difficult because you will notice that some people you love are constantly postponing things that they have to do. Just let them know that you are taking a different path in your life and you have a new lease on life. Inform them that you plan to accomplish your dreams and desires. If they really LOVE you they will understand and support your ACTIONS towards your rehabilitation. Eventually you might inspire them to do the same by also taking responsibility for their actions to stop being a procrastinator. Don’t forget to stay strong and continue writing what you want to do a day in advance because procrastination can always return.

Stay blessed ,

Finally I am Financially Free

We all have that dream, the one where you can get and buy whatever you want. We came into this industry of network marketing for that( no this is not a lottery ticket, sorry this ticket takes work). Well that is one of my reasons.

I honestly believe are WHYS should be the biggest reasons. You know the motives why your doing network marketing. Remember your WHYS have to be so big that they make you cry when you think of them. I have a few WHYS that will always make me want to shed a few tears. One of mine is to retire my mom before age or her body does.

I know most of us were taught that we work hard until are body shuts down or when you reach the retirement age (if they don’t change it ). I am a full blooded momma’s boy and that is one of my gifts for her. I would love to have her enjoy the rest of her life not going crazy about clocking in and a alarm clock .

Now what you would like to do with your finances are clearly your business but remember this don’t forget why you joined and what are you biggest WHYS. At the end of the day you will need them for a few things. One of those things are obstacles. When people are telling you that you cant do it you have to remember the reasons your doing what your doing. Don’t expect everyone to understand why you are doing what your doing.

There will also be distractions that will be involved with your journey to financial freedom. One of the biggest ones I notice is that we tend to be allergic to money. What do you mean Mack?

Well what I mean is that you have to understand that you shouldn’t give money the power to change you. I am sure you have heard this one before. People get some money and they forget who they are. Don’t let that happen to you. You must learn how to handle money and not let money handle you. One of the best quotes I have ever heard for money was this “YOU MAKE THE MONEY DON’T LET THE MONEY MAKE YOU“. Another problem I see is the fact that we tend to forget that “ IT TAKES MONEY TO MAKE MONEY.

You have to understand that in this world you cant make money unless you spend money. Yes fear of loss does play a great deal in spending money but you still have to do it. The day you stop spending money to make money is the beginning of you losing money.

Another thing about your financial free don’t put any limits on what you want to accomplish. I have a list of things in my life that I will accomplish. I wont stop until I do for one simple fact I have ONE LIFE.

I look at it this way I have ONE LIFE, yes ONE LIFE so I will do my best to achieve everything in that list for the simple fact that I have ONE LIFE and I will live it to the fullest.

Remember following your dreams can lead you to things you never knew you could accomplish but because you set your goals high you got there.

Like one of my mentors say “ Most people fail in life not because they aim to high and miss. Most people fail in life because they aim to low and hit. And many don’t aim at all.” Les Brown

What are ACTIONS saying about YOU

When was the last time you listen to what you said and connected it to what your doing? Most of us have a tendency to say a lot. When it is time to look at your actions does your actions say what your mouth did?

Have you ever heard the saying “ Don’t write checks that your butt cant cash?” It was designed to remind you that if you cant do something don’t say you will.

I know we all have a lot of things we would like to accomplish in this wonderful lifetime of ours. The key to them is not just writing them down. If you write them down but don’t act on them they wont happen.

Another thing you must remember that not all your actions will turn out the way you want. Instead of going into deep depression and giving up try something different. Yes we all get down and yes you will get down again. The key is to learn from them so they don’t happen again.

Now back to ACTIONS. We all do things that we don’t want to do to get a specific goal. Here is a example. Your alarm clock goes off you and you get up. In your mind you want to go back to bed but unfortunately you have to go to work. Why do you have to go to work? You don’t go to work because you want to. You go because you want food on the table for your family. You want to come home and have the lights on and of course you don’t want a eviction notice on your door, so you go to work for those things.

The same goes for everything else in life. At the age of nine, yes nine I wanted to get married and have a great family. That means I had to date and look for the one. No I didn’t start dating at the age of nine. During my time of dating I got my heart breaks and yes I broke some hearts. I can honestly say that if I could do it all over again the same way I would because I learned from my mistakes but most importantly I took ACTIONS to what I wanted.

 So far we are married for 3 years

 

with 2 wonderful boys!


 

Now we all can get up and clock in and clock out to our jobs. Well the same goes for your business. If there are no actions taken towards your aspiration how do you think they will happen?

We all have situations in life that allows us a certain amount of time on are businesses. That is ok but you have time. Yes you do don’t say you don’t. You will have to cut out some television time or time with your friends. After this blog take a sheet of paper out and right a schedule. Yes a schedule. Divide your time two different ways;

Play

 

 And WORK

 

 

 

There are 7 days in a week so you have time for both. Now remember you have to work twice as hard as you play so next time you play you can have more time to play.

This industry of network marketing is designed for you to get the financial freedom you want so you can have more time with family and friends. If you play more than you work and lack the MASSIVE ACTION you need the results you desire will take longer to obtain and eventually quit.

The question we all ask when it happens! Well in this video I give my opinion on what we should do when a mentor or upline leaves the company they were in.

I did this video to just take some time to talk from the heart and experience. Next time your mentor leaves just think before you speak because not all of what you  say will be what you really mean.

We sometimes forget the concept of network marketing. You find something that is great and you share it with others. You feel that it can help a lot of people and you share it because  you have used it yourself.

There are always new things and great things coming out. Yes your company is the best and yes it has helped a lot of people but you never know when something new can come around and assist others in another way. Also people are entitled to change their minds and what they are looking for in life. Next time your mentor or downline leaves your company it wont hurt to wish them well and make sure they made the right decision.

Stay Blessed,
