Network Marketing - You Are Perfect to Play!
I shared this with my dear friends and Mentors this morning. “I think I just got “IT” when you say, “Your Perfect Just The Way You Are…”
I always looked at that statement to mean anybody can “play this game” no matter Your background, education and such; but I didn’t take it further - I don’t think I took that from my head into my heart.
My kids were watching an older movie, “Dodge Ball”, with Vince Vaughn and Ben Stiller; a bunch of misfits from a run down gym gathered together as a team to compete for the National Dodge Ball championship - the prize money to save the gym. The usual slap stick, funny in parts, brilliant really when I stepped outside of the humor and saw simple people with their “fears” and “lack” super exposed in a comedic way.
The “leader” is riddled with his own “fears,” and accepts the flaws and weaknesses in each individual. While they come together as a team to practice and play the game, their strengths emerge one by one. Their weaknesses take a backseat. Each member on the team draws upon an inner character strength when he or she was ready. At the end of the movie, Vince Vaughn has his gym and walks across the screen saying,
“Hi. I’m Peter so n’ so, owner and operator of Average Joe’s Gym. I’m here to tell You, You’re perfect just the way you are. But if You feel like losin’ a few pounds, gettin’ healthier, and makin’ friends in the process, Joe’s is the place for You…”
I’m perfect right now, today with all my faults and flaws and weaknesses because at the same time my strengths are emerging in my own time.
I’m an Average Joe with a dream.
My plan?
I’ve aligned myself with a team of like-minded people all desiring what I desire; people who have successfully achieved their dreams! Mentoring For Free led me to my mentor, who in turn is leading me away from wallowing in weakness, my frustration with lack, and helping me grow in strength, confidence, and self-assurance right into my burning desire.
I’m perfect just the way I am and am ok with failing forward. I don’t want to “dodge the ball” anymore or take a hit and sit on the sidelines. I want to catch that ball and run with it. I have the team and the tools I need to Succeed; as an added bonus I’ve received friendship, guidance, understanding, patience and belief until I could believe in myself.
My Team gave me TIME to understand I’m right where I should be. Today with their help I’m strategically re-formulating my plan to achieve my “Why.”
