I Just Don't Get It!
As many of you may be aware when some individuals who get involved in an MLM, Network Marketing or Direct marketing business their focus is on themselves. The danger there is that they are out to build numbers and get your money in hand. When that happens that person or persons who got you involved are gone not to be heard from again. Your excitement is genuine but soon fades as you really did not receive adequate training, support and strategies to build your business or they told you to read the training on the specific web site. Basically you are on your own!
This is very unfortunate for you and any future viable businesses that may come along that you could very well prosper from. You have a nasty taste in your mouth, right? Hey I don't blame you. As a result, you are no longer receptive to any of these type businesses, PERIOD! Here is the danger in that statement, you could very well pass up that one opportunity that would have fulfilled you needs, wants and desires, which would have changed your quality of life for you and your family. The one that would have in fact made you financially free.
I hear statements like "It's a Pyramid" or these things don't work, it's a scam, or on the polite side we hear, I'm too busy, I work to many hours to take on additional stuff." Wait a minute, what was that last statement? Hello! All that this is telling me is that said person is either complacent in their life or so locked up in their comfort zone they are afraid to get out side of it. Basically, you are in your own way! That is the only thing keeping you from reaching your financial goals, filling those needs, wants and desires! If you get out of your own way you will succeed without question! I As a "Straight Talk" public speaker, I know this is harsh, some might call it tough love, but I call it straight talk! I'm not going to wast your time and mine by holding your hand and sing "Kumbaya". My speciality is Professional Growth which works well with some of my Personal Growth friends like Harv Elker of the Millionaire Mind and Manny Goldman Personal Growth Coach. These phenomenal people focus on personal growth whereas I focus on Professional Growth, a great mix. I heard a great quote the other day; "It is never too late to become what you might have been."
Everyone is brought up to go to school, then college and finally work for someone for forty years, retire on 60% of their income for which they could not live on at 100%. Your life expectancy after retirement is 6 to 10 years. Isn't that a rosy picture?
I guess I just don't get it! I talk with thousands of people who want to be in control of their lives, but can't or won't take the action to start the process. I impress upon them that 95% of the population competes for 5% of the wealth and 95% of the wealth is controlled by 5% of the population. To become part of that 5% you MUST own your own business PERIOD! One of the best ways today to stop trading hours for dollars and leverage your time and money is to open your own home based business. It's cost effective and if applied properly can get you to that 5% faster than pretty much anything else out there!
But here is a problem I run into all the time. I talk with people a lot and provide them with viable and profitable business opportunities and offer the professional tools to help them become successful. But for some reason inside their head they don't treat these businesses as a real business. You're looking at billion dollar corporations and the new business owner treats it as some kind of little business or a hobby. Many now multi-millionaires have made their fortunes through these type businesses. I have been racking my brain to try understand why many people who start their new business fall out after 3 to 4 months.
One of the things that I like to teach all Team ProVision members is, as an upline, sponsor or coach you are extremely important to anyone within your organization especially at the beginning. As you know we are all bombarded daily by business offers, so-called get rich quick schemes, all kinds of things on the Internet. Unfortunately, many of these people really don't have your best interests or success in mind. They basically only have their own agenda in mind. And again, unfortunately they just don't get it! If you're downline is successful, then so are you! Have you heard this statement, "throw mud against the wall and see what sticks"?. This is not what Team ProVision is all about. We are here to assist you in any way possible to assure your success!
