Programming ???? how pervasive is it ? Michael told me to study people.
So, I have been and I am intrigued.

I understand when we see an Olympic Gold medal being given , we say
Wow, I can’t do that, and ya know maybe your right ? did you try ? was it your dream ?

Then when it comes to building our business, we see someone go Diamond, or 4 star
Diamond and our programming takes over and we say “Wow, I can’t do that.

- Wrong, ever so wrong YOU CAN Do Just that!!!!
- do you realize you have the Holy Grail of Network Marketing in your grasp ?
if you reach just a little bit, Ask just a little bit , open your eyes just a little bit
You can have a life that most folks won’t even dare to dream of.
.

How can I say that ? Easy I just did –

We collectively talk to 1000’s and 1000’s and 1000’s of frustrated Network Marketers.
What are they missing ?? Why are they failing ???

lack of teamwork
lack of support
lack of a true mentor
lack of a system
not in a 5 pillar company
lack of training
no prospects to talk to

Sound familiar, YOU CAN HAVE all that –just by asking and reading one little book -
so lets together give birth to an awesome new day - let’s start today August 15, 2009
and build the largest community of truly successful Network Marketers in the flippin
Universe. Let us work together to build a community that will not be rivaled for
centuries upon centuries .

Much Love always

Critial Thinking - Is It OK to Choose a Little Good News?

Posted on August 15th, 2009 in Critical Thiking, Self Development, Skills Training, Personal Development, Recent Posts by Laurie

Ann Murray wrote a song, “Little Good News” and the Refrain, “Sure could use a little good news today,” is resounding in my head today.  My sister and I talked briefly last night about the recent barrage of emails pouring puke in  her email box.

Many of the emails are offensive, off color, or just someone’s idea of a joke yet often contain filth and obscenities.  She wanted to know if I felt her request to family and friends to stop sending these offensive emails was justified.

Isn’t it funny people are more willing to pass along an offensive email without thinking to everyone in their address book; yet they really have to stop and contemplate who would be receptive to an uplifting, heart warming and just plain good old human interest story.

Learning and using my critical thought process, I applied what I‘d learned so far to her dilemma.   We weighed the consequences of her actions:

1.  People who know and love You will respect the fact that You find this type of email offensive and stop sending it to You.

2.  People who don’t care, will either continue sending smut, be offended You don’t find their humor “humorous” and fling their insecurities at You, or drop You as a friend altogether (I’d be thankful at this point).

3.  Your enacting Your inalienable right to expose Yourself to that which brings pleasure and joy rather than negative and offensive emotions.

4.  You stand up and hold strong to Your values and morals and wont allow others to tear down Your beliefs, self-confidence and love of Yourself.

5.  Your agreeing to disagree without disrespecting others choices - choosing what’s right for You and knowing it’s not necessarily right for someone else.

I could not come up with any negative reactions in this critical thought process.

How many people accept situations in their lives, even though they may be offensive, due to fear of loss, or lack of self or lack of loving oneself?  Doesn’t everyone deserve respect and consideration?  Whose insecurities and fears and/or ignorance are You allowing to contaminate Your thoughts, values, and beliefs?

Who couldn’t use a “Little Good News” today?

I posted a story I’ve read before under the “Critical Thinkers” group in FB for anyone interested in a heart-warming human interest story.  If Your not, don’t read it, after all it’s Your Choice.

If You want to learn more about How to Think and not What to Think you can  Start with this F*REE ebook;  it just may bring a Little Good News to you today.

Joys of Networking - The Unseen Benefits

Posted on August 15th, 2009 in Self Development, Skills Training, Recent Posts by Laurie

I’ve heard this many times that You cannot always see the benefits of all the little or seemingly small actions You do today. I suppose it’s like asking what tomorrow will be like. You can’t know the unseen benefits of actions You take today.

I am a woman of the 2000’s, I am multi-faceted as well as an expert multi-tasker! In addition to working from home, I’ve hired on with a sales and marketing firm as a product demonstrator a couple of times a week.

On the way home from a demonstration today I had a revelation on how much networking really goes on in an average day. It dawns on me how familiar I’ve become with the people that frequent the store where I conduct the demonstrations, and how they have come to trust and recognize me!

I’ve been tagged, “The Sample Lady” and it makes me smile. It’s interesting how such a simple job of handing out samples has become such an enjoyable phenomenon to many.

When I post that I’m going out to give 300 smiles in a day, it’s not an exaggeration. I can’t help but greet people as they walk by my cart. I smile and wave at the children; sympathize and offer a sample if appropriate when a young one is having a bad moment. Then there are the parents and grandparents, and everyone in between from teenagers to single young adults. I greet every person that passes by and ask how they are today. I’ve gotten to know some of the employees a little bit too.

Today I teased a husband out of the bored look in his eyes as he watched his wife contemplate which cheese to buy. I offered him a sample to sustain him while he waited. He smiled. One family approached and I noticed they were shy one daughter. I commented on it knowing if each child didn’t get their fair share of samples they’d be upset. Oh, she was at grandmas. Another Mom walks by and I don’t see her boys tagging along. Later they all came by together. I should have realized the boys had disappeared on Mom again. She actually came by the cart to look for them.

One young mother came over to me concerned about last week’s demo product, thinking she served her boy’s a product that was spoiled. Her relief was evident after I explained the products tendency to separate. She told me then about her son’s upcoming surgery. We talked a bit and I gave them my best wishes for everything to turn out alright. She reminded me I probably wouldn’t see them next week…..

I’ve talked philosophy, children, finances, health, well being, aging, fishing, camping, “how it used to be,” and everything in-between, except politics and religion! I’ve become a familiar fixture in the grocery aisle and people of all ages and sizes and gender have begun to walk over just to say hello and I get caught up with pleasure just seeing them.

I didn’t realize how many lives I’ve touched through the simple act of courteous and friendly networking, and a smile. It’s networking at its best and I am receiving the joy of those “unseen benefits.”

Imagine without the training and education I’ve received I wouldn’t know the Joys or benefits of Real Networking! If you’d like to know more about effective networking click for your F*ree ebook information here.
