Wow what a truth from Michael Dlouhy about focusing on one product, rather than having multiple products. As Michael Dlouhy says,
by keeping your competitors items in stock you are in competion with yourself. That is you are competing with yourself and the competitors
products are paying them rather than paying you for a product which you may have within your own company..

Having come from a company where there was a large selection of product, however it failed to focus on just one form of product. They could of
really made a lot from just focusing on a persons health results and having fewer products. However they expanded to have more than one product,
having more than one flavour and up to 5 in some places, which meant that each product was then competing with others to get out there.

As Michael Dlouhy mentions the more streams of income that you have comming in the, the more chances of competing with others within
your team, company and organisation. You end up in competion for the clients custom. You see all the ads all the time of products attempting
to appeal to the audience to get their custom. By stocking other peoples products we are essentially driving away that income from our
own company. We are also sending money to our compeitors too.

How One Famous Company

Drove Their Customers Away

Some years ago, Coca Cola sent this letter to restaurant owners across the U.S.:

"Has PepsiCo opened a restaurant near you yet? Wait 4 hours. Every 4 hours PepsiCo adds another unit to their restaurant empire. Another unit that competes with your business and feeds your customers."

In addition to selling colas, PepsiCo owns Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, & Kentucky Fried Chicken. If I owned a restaurant, the thought would never leave my mind that by stocking Pepsi, I’m subsidizing my competitors. So I would NEVER stock Pep- si.

The more streams of income you promote, the more chance you're com- peting with your own people. You see it every single day online.

No serious networker would risk alienating their people like this. You must scrupulously do your due diligence for anything you promote.

[youtube=http://youtu.be/g-jwWYX7Jlo] A very powerful motivational video to do with dreams. That when you believe it and stand alone you can still achieve such. You will find those people who believe in you and what you have.

Success in 10 steps – How has such impacted own life as a person.

Before reading success in ten steps by Michael Dlouhy in 2010 I was searching for ways to build better stronger relationships with others. For years I was hanging around the wrong type of people who were less family orientated that was personally. However it took may years to even realise just how family orientated I was.

I also had a tone of dreams however they were smashed from listening to people who really had not achieved what was seeking personally. For years I had sought to be that best husband and father which could be, I’d been working on being such. Working on overcoming own upbringing to become that father and parent who was able to do anything with his own family. I was in network marketing and failing as really wasn’t able to create the relationships needed. A lot of the people who said were interested in the opportunity were the wrong type of people.

I was following the methods taught which was really to push sell, rather than what really needed was to pull sell. I was trained to buy leads, to put out flyers and talk to everyone. As was told just get it in front of everyone and they will buy. I was trained to sell people on the products and opportunity had.

I would go out there and do as was trained to do, to just do the flyers, talk to those leads that came in and do the best. However the frustrating part was that it was barely making any money at all sometimes, it was costing more than was making. I’d had such a fantastic result losing 45 kilos and going on to improve own health. However I was around those people who were unwilling to make any major changes to their own health. They were lets say content with dealing with their own life as it was.

When I found success in 10 steps in 2010 I started to work on myself as a person more, I’d been a student of personal development since starting in network marketing again. Yet I still struggled creating those relationships needed, a lot of the people who met were false friends, they were not true friends. That they would walk away when it got rough, after starting to work on myself with success in 10 steps and personal development I met a number of wonderful people.

Some who have become the best friends who could ask for, others it is taking time to build the relationships with. I had been on a few dates, out with a few people however was unable to really relate to where a person was coming from. Also that person was unable to relate to where I was coming from, so their was no real bond formed between us that we’d have very little in common. So eventually the friendship and relationship did fall apart.

After reading success in 10 steps I realised that the reason was around was because I was meant to care for own family. They were the people who meant the most to me, I’d show them as best as was able to do yet there was no mutual bond at all. This took a bit of personal development to realise that there really was no bond at all.

I had gone on to find a couple of amazing friends who shared experiences with as a person to be able to relate to what they were going through at that point. I built some truly wonderful friendships with some of the most wonderful people people who really could relate to as a person who became true best friends who could rely upon.

I’d like to thank Michael Dlouhy, Ken Kelmm, Willena Flewelling and the other wonderful mentors at mentoring for free for their love insperation and guidence and wonderful support. You are all amazing.
