Revolvoing Doors: Round-and-round, Yet NOT Getting Where you Want to BE.

Sometimes moving forward in a home business can be challenging.... It's like you get stuck in one of those revolving doors.  Around and around and around, where you were, where you're headed, where you were, where you're headed...

But you just don't seem to step OUT of that 360 degree safety bubble...

You have two choices when stuck in the revolving door of life, just two.  No in between options!

1) Step off on the side where you were and resume life as you've always known it.

OR

2) Step off on the side where you want to be and move forward one step at a time until you get there...

Your MLM Flame, how brightly does your PASSION burn?

If I've said it once, I've said it 100 times, to make it successful in MLM you need to have a burning desire to make it happen. You have to have a burning passion to keep you moving forward even in lulls, through dips and over speed bumps.  You need to have a burning desire to succeed no matter what mountains or brick walls stand in your way.

Now what does this flame look like to you?  How do you envision it?

Do you see a flame that burns within, it keeps burning, same height, same width, burning at a steady rythm day after day?   Let me tell you, a flame like this can be blown out by a puff of air.  It can be extinguished by a small breeze. 

My flame is a raging inferno!  If someone blows on it, it gets hotter and burns faster!  If there is a breeze it takes off like wild fire.  THIS is the type of BURNING FIRE OF PASSION YOU NEED to have in order to GLOW and GROW in the MLM industry.

It really does take a certain depth of burning fire in this industry.  Not all will survive the industry.  Many will quit.  Not because they can't do it.  Not because they fail.  They will quit because their flame was not big enough!

How BIG is YOUR flame?  DO you have it in you to take all the steps to get from where you are to where you want to be?

What are your URBAN roots? Just for FUN!

There is a thing going around Facebook right now, to go to UrbanDictionary.com and type in your name to see what comes up! 

Here is what comes up for "Alethea"....

"Alethea" Description: Mysterious, Quiet,...


Virtues: Acceptance, Commitment, Discipline, Foresight, Honesty, Honour, Hospitality, Humility, Independence, Integrity, Intuition Morality, Modesty, Obedience, Patience, Respectfulness, Responsibility, Trustfulness, Truthfulness

This personality this is one of a kind persona, an oddity in this mundane world, if not an in explicably intriguing character. To the onlooker Alethea is a quite subdued individual whose character revolves around a shy yet steadfast nature. Such character derived in a loyalty and rooted in trust grows upon one reaching out in a whisper transmuting into a deep admiration. To the exuberant and animated she is inconspicuous, imperceptible, and invisible. As if no more than a premonition to the supercilious, yet to the keen, she becomes a work of genius unlike any other. Permeated with wisdom and infected with kindness she guides and strengthens those around her.

In the absence a throng, she dispels the cloak releasing a creative and exuberant character vivacious and thirsty for life. In this she is no longer tranquil and subdued, but alive, full of an insatiable and unquenchable desire for life. This powerful craving brings out a random and indescribable occurrence, transforming a quiet heart to an innocent and playful, but vivid and active one. This freedom found only by herself and with her closest friends is invigorating. Such energy brings back the innocents of childhood infectious joy.
 
I'd say it's pretty much right on!

"Imagination" Can you really 'dream' your way to the TOP in MLM?

What is "Imagination"?   It is the formation of a mental image of something that is neither perceived as real nor present to the senses...

How can Imagination become the foundation for your future?  ALL new ideas were created from an imagination.  Thomas Edison imagined a light bulb...  Henry Ford imagined a horseless carriage...

If there were no thought, there would be no things!  Now ponder this...

"I think, therefore I am"

or

"I am, therefore I think"

Interesting isn't it? 

The fact is if you can not imagine yourself at the top. If you can not see yourself there.  If you can not feel yourself there.  If you can  not focus on your desired outcome with every fiber of your being, it simply will not happen....

Success, reaching the top, does not come by accident.  It comes by imagining it, believing it, and acting upon it.  Desires manifest as results when you take the action steps to get from where you are to where you want to be.

So IMAGINE!  Use that Imagination!   SEE it, FEEL it and most of all BELIEVE it!

Do you have "Hope for the flowers" : Many in MLM don't know HOW to get to the TOP

This is an amazing little book, it looks like a children's book, but it is much deeper than a children's book.

I recommend "hope for the flowers" to anyone and everyone on a journey in the Direct Sales, Network Marketing, MLM industry.

This book walks you through the journey of a very determined catpillar, who wanted to get to the top, because everyone else wanted to get to the top. 

Only to find in order to get to the top, you really have to go within....

He figured out what he needed to do to get from where he was, to where he wanted to be, and it was magical...

How's your Cafe World? All about MLM Dedication!

Okay, here it comes!  Some TOUGH LOVE for MLMers who say "I can't...."

Tell me all about YOUR Cafe World Cafe!

What level are you in Cafe World? 

How long did it take you to figure out how to cook a meal and serve a meal?

How long did it take you to figure out how to expand your cafe?

How long did it take you to figure out how the food could spoil?

How long did it take you to figure out how to send/receive gifts?

How long did it take you to figure out how to add a friend?

How long did it take you to figure out how to hire/fire someone?

How long did it take you to figure out how to change your clothes?

Do you log on Cafe World daily because you want to get to the top?  You want to go up in levels, it feels pretty good huh?  You like it when your "thumbs up" score rises... You love receiving gifts from the efforts of others...

Well you can get to the top of your MLM company by applying effort.  You can go up levels in your company too... You can grow your income (score) and you can earn a residual income (gifts) from the efforts of others too...

Do you get my drift?

In a nutshell, if you can navigate Cafe World, run a successful Cafe, cook dishes, add friends and so on, THEN YOU CAN MARKET YOUR MLM BUSINESS!  Not only can you market it, obviously you have TIME to grow your home based business too!

Now I'm not saying you can't still play, I admit, I'm a Cafe World junkie myself, BUT I know how to fit a wee bit o leisure time in between my networking and marketing, my track record shows this... 

To those who feel they can't build a website, well, it's no harder than learning how to use Cafe World or even Facebook.  For those who feel they can't create a following or gain friends while networking, well, it's no harder than using Cafe World or Facebook.

I told you this one would be on the edge of 'tough love'...  Time to hop out of "Cafe World" and jump into the REALWORLD!   You can make your cake, and eat it too (pun intended) but you also can create a successful MLM home based business...  You simply have to take the steps to get from where you are, to where you want to be.

One Must Take Their Hands OUT of Their Pockets to Climb the Ladder of Success

There are a group of people walking around the bottom of the ladder to success... they all complain that they are not getting anywhere.  They all have several things in common, first of all they all have excuses.....

• My Sponsor does not help me.
• I'm not good at selling.
• No one I know will buy.
• I don't have enought time.
• I don't have enough money.
• My husband/wife does not support me.

You'll notice they all have a another thing very much in common.  All of their hands are in their pockets. 

What do I mean by this?

Well, in order to climb a ladder it takes effort.  One foot, one hand, one foot one hand, scaling upwards to the top, to the place we call success.  When someone spends their valuable time making excuses, their 'hands are tied' figuratively speaking....

None are putting their feet on the first rung of the ladder because they don't have a hand available to make it happen.  It is too simple state that...

• My sponsor is not there to help me climb the ladder.
• I'm not good at climbing a ladder.
• No one I know will buy the fact that I could climb a ladder.
• I don't have enough time to climb a ladder.
• I don't have enought money to climb a ladder.
• My husband/wife won't allow me to climb a ladder.

Now pay attention to all those sentences and look closer, what does each one have within?  I and/or ME.  When you break it down, the only thing that can stop someone from climbing the ladder of success is the self.  If someone wants it bad enough, if someone has the burning desire within; it does not matter about the sponsor, being good or bad, having the skill, having the money or having the support.  What matters is HOW BAD DO YOU WANT IT.

With that said, are you wandering around the bottom?  Misery loves company!  If you want to make a change, onward and upward hot stuff!   Grab ahold of that ladder and go-go-go.  To get from here to there, you have to climb every rung in between!
