You can make mistakes, or let others do it for you.

Here is a wonderful lesson from Tom Big Al, this doesn’t just apply to network marketing. It applies to life, when you learn from your own and others mistakes and say look this worked or didn’t work for me. We can even learn from our own parents and families mistakes.

You can make mistakes, or let others do it for you.
Many years ago an attorney, Barry LePatner, made the following statement:
"Good judgment is usually the result of experience. And experience is frequently the result of bad judgment. But to learn from the experience of others requires those who have the experience to share the knowledge with those who follow."
In other words, we can go out and make our own mistakes by trial and error, or we can observe or listen to those who came before us and have made those mistakes already.
This is one of the duties of our sponsor. Our sponsor can save us valuable time and money by letting us know what works, and doesn't work.
Of course this is assuming our sponsor actually did something.
If our sponsor spent his career moving computer pixels from one side of the computer screen to another, chit-chatting on social media, or reading endless positive attitude books ... well, then our sponsor wouldn't have much experience to share with us.
So let's make sure we are great sponsors. Let's actually do something. Let's have plenty of experience in prospecting, presenting, and working with "live" people.
Our downline deserves our experience.

Vitamins for the Mind

Vitamins for the Mind
by Jim Rohn

Basics/Fundamentals

Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying basic fundamentals.

There are no new fundamentals. You've got to be a little suspicious of someone who says, "I've got a new fundamental." That's like someone inviting you to tour a factory where they are manufacturing antiques.

Some things you have to do every day. Eating seven apples on Saturday night instead of one a day just isn't going to get the job done.

Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day; while failure is simply a few errors in judgment, repeated every day. It is the cumulative weight of our disciplines and our judgments that leads us to either fortune or failure.

"Vitamins for the Mind" is a weekly sampling of original quotes on a specific topic taken from The Treasury of Quotes by Jim Rohn. The burgundy hardbound book with gold-foil lettering is a collection of more than 365 quotes on 60 topics gathered from Jim's personal journals, seminars and books and spanning more than 40 years.

Success leaves clues, but so does failure.

Another powerful article thanks to Tom Big Al, this is truly life applicable.

Success leaves clues, but so does failure.
Where should you look for prospects? Good prospects? The kind of prospects that join?
Simply look at where you enrolled your last five distributors. Where and how did you meet these prospects?
Success leaves clues.
So instead of finding new and unique places to locate future distributors, go back to where you located the last five distributors.
But failure leaves clues also.
Take a look at why your last five prospects told you they weren't interested. Was there a common theme? And where did you locate these uninterested prospects?
Many times we are standing too close to our successes and failures. We need to step back and observe to see if there are clues.

Wow think about what clues are showing your success or failure and why. What are you doing to make such?

Tomorrow is payday for what we do today.

Wow this is such a great truth, thank you to Tom Big Al for such a short powerful message.

Tomorrow is payday for what we do today.
A great advantage in network marketing is that it is possible to do something today, and then get paid on it over and over again.
If we come into this business with a job attitude, seeking immediate rewards, we will be disappointed. Network marketing's strongest point is the chance for residual income. With this in mind, we might want to change some strategies.
For example, instead of pushing for a one-time retail sale, we might invest more time with this prospect in building a stronger relationship. Then, later we would approach the prospect about our business.
There is an old saying, "If you need money now, get a job. And if you want residual income for the future, start building your network now."
