#2 Attend Your Company Meetings, personal development, business building, and master mind seminars. Get in person coaching. You've heard that saying that you are a direct result from the people you hang around. Hang around people earning 50,000 a month in this industry even if it’s just to breathe near them. Something will rub off on you. You may pick up pointers they say over dinner. Or, you may just get so pissed off that you're not influencing as many people as they are and you’ll finally start learning and doing the things you need to do in order to Become the Leader You Already Are. You may realize that there is nothing different between you and them except a skill set and resolve.
So you can’t afford it. Yes, there are some people with no credit, no income, and no one to borrow from, but most of you have the money for training. It’s the dress you bought but never wore. It’s a night out on the town with the boys. It’s in a starbucks register (I gave it up when I first started and You Can Too). It’s in the 11th picture frame you bought this month because it was cute. I’ve gone to seminars where I had no idea where I was getting the money with no credit card to finance it. I had an idea and got there. I also sponsored my first person ever after attending my first home based business seminar (it had never happened before). (Smile)

Stop Selling Your MLM Products!
First a little story...
When I was 22 (about 10 years ago, for a time line) I went to a psychic in Adam's Morgan a neighborhood in Washington, D.C. and even though I had my head set on being a rock star (that's how I introduced myself to anyone and everyone), this lady said I'd end up being a teacher. Now, I was really upset by this and said she was crazy. But I did ask her, "what about being a great singer/songwriter because well, I know that is what I'm supposed to do. It's what God put me here for! It comes naturally for me and I'm good at music!" She said, "I never said you weren't going to be that. I just said you'd end up being a teacher." This psychic lady was weird as far as I was concerned and oh my gosh is she crazy. Both of my parents were teachers and I didn't even like kids, when I was a kid nor did I want a profession with a salary cap! Classroom teachers, as far as I was concerned was for people who have a passion for teaching and love kids! Needless to say, I never went back to a psychic ever again. All I wanted her to tell me was when I was gonna be a famous singer--- Seriously.
It was not until two or three months ago that I thought about "my psychic visit." My Gosh, the lady was right! I've become a teacher (with no salary cap)....not in the classroom, but of marketing and business building. Yes, I have plenty to learn. That's why I buy books, watch videos, and take courses on marketing and personal development. I've spent entire weeks learning things that I have no idea how I will use the information, but that I will need it. It's not about waiting to do something till you know it all, can do it all right, and can afford everything; it's just about getting it going. There is a saying that goes….who learns more than the student, the teacher. You know more about attraction marketing by reading this blog than 95% of network marketers out there and they are looking for you!
When you were new to network marketing industry or a newbie at your job, didn't you look to someone for guidance? Didn't you ask someone for help? Weren't you looking for someone to "teach you?" Yes, you were. If you weren't then I'm sure you didn't last long in that company or at that job. The most prominent people in every profession have teachers, trainers, and mastermind groups to take them to the next level (even if they are considered the best in their fields).
You are a Teacher. You are an Information Provider. You are not a distributor for XYZ Company. Provide people with information that helps them solve whatever issue your MLM company's products provide. People will come running to the person (and their products) providing answers about their weight issues, digestion issues, travel needs, online marketing issues, etc and You get the picture Now.

#1 of 7 Tips for the Newbie Networker
Don't Quit. It is the only sure way you will fail. People will say no. Your family and friends may think you are stupid and crazy. You will sponsor people and never hear from them again. You will want to quit. You will think this is too hard. I hate to tell you that I let one of these things affect me for 6 months. Even though I was told stuff like this happens, I still got emotionally attached to people and my business. Just say NO! Get over it. Know why you decided to start in the industry go to work. Decide this is your chosen field then decide to put yourself through MLM University no matter what the cost. You, your dreams, your family are worth it. Remember, the Universe is watching and will grant you your wishes if she likes what she sees.

Is Procrastination Keeping Your Network Marketing Business from Moving on Up?
I asked people on my list what is their biggest issue right now in building their business and the number one response was procrastination. I found that really funny because well, that was my biggest war also.
Procrastination can be a direct response (or lack of one) from fear of success. Because if you actually did everything you said you were going to do, your life could be exactly what you want it to be (not as much whining). Getting what you want actually scares most people. They'd rather reflect on what they don't have. Silly, but true. Some people get into network marketing because they want to pay off debt, have more than enough money, quit their job, but yet the really the shear reality of that scares most of them to death. Sub-conscious they won't do things because well that is a responsibility and freedom they're not willing to work for. Leaving your comfort zone for unfamiliar territory goes against everything most people are taught. Diane Hochman, in a Million Mind March call said, "The reason you don't have a huge downline yet, is because you don't want one. " Think About it. Is that true?
Joe Schroeder says in his Cash Flow Recruiting Machine: "Most don't believe in themselves enough to learn ONE MORE SKILL. In fact, most people are only ONE SKILL away from making a fortune.
Unwillingness to learn a new skill in order to increase your value to others and yourself is another form of procrastination. The thing that you are avoiding everyday by watching 4 episodes of Reba (ok, I'm guilty and I don't allow myself to watch it anymore, seriously) is the one skill that would bring you closer to your success or goal. That goes for anyone no matter what level they are at in this industry. As soon as I started to learn and do the things that I had been avoiding to grow my business that is when I started to attract more people. I do have relapses of Reba, but I repeat this saying every day.... whatever I do today will determine what my life will be like in 6 months.
Remember that you will attract the kind of people that are like you. Clearly, as the great people on my list proved to me. (Smile) Just take it one day at a time becoming the right kind of person and see your circle of influence grow! You Don't Have to Get it Right. You Just Have to Get it Going. Get it Going Here.

How to Start Building a List without a Capture Page
I know how scary it can be if you are technically challenged to make your own capture page when you first get started in marketing your product or business. Some people don't have money to get everything started initially, so an easy no frills way to capture a prospect's information and build a relationship with them would be good. Of course you can add an auto responder to your blog, but I wanted to show you one way to do it without a thing.
You still need an auto responder. I use Aweber.They have great instructional videos and the staff is helpful if you are lost! Set up your List Name Campaign (whatever you want to name your list). Instead of your capture page URL for more information, have your readers send you blank email to yourlistname@aweber.com . They will immediately be sent a confirmation where they will be redirected to your website. Now they are on your list and you can market to these people forever any product and or service unless they opt out! Whenever you do finally get your capture page set up, you can link "yourlistname" to whatever capture page you choose!
This direct method works best if you are using video marketing or article writing. People will opt in, if you gave them value or a reason for them to inquire about more information.

Is Your Focus Making You The Biggest Loser?
Hey

I found this video by our Friend, Tony Robbins
You can watch it below
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cpc-t-Uwv1I&NR=1
So what are you Focusing on?
Are You Focusing on people who reject your business opportunity? Are You Focusing on not having the money you want to do something? Are You Focusing on all your husband's bad habits? Are You Focusing on how scared you are to develop a new skill?
So what are you Focusing on?
No matter what level of change or progress you are looking for in your life
Focus on one good thing
Dani Johnson, a home business trainer said in her seminars
That the one thing she decided to focus on when her husband had walked out on her, took all her money, stole her business, and left her with 35, 000 in debt and 2 dollars to her name....
Was that some people save their whole lives to come to Hawaii, where she was living at the time
She was looking at being homeless in Hawaii and far away from anyone she knew as a bad thing
She decided some people would kill to live in a beautiful place
So she made a decision to look at her circumstances another way
So what are you Focusing on?
What decision are you going to make today to take one step forward?

55 Alibis for 2008, Are You Guilty?
People who do not succeed have one distinguishing trait in common.They know all the reasons for failure, and have what they believeto be airtight alibis to explain away their own lack ofachievement. -Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
Hey There Guys
Happy New Year
I wanted to say
Before I get Down and Dirty
What was your Alibi for 2008
I know some of you had atleast one
IF only I had enough "pull"
IF only I had enough money
IF only I could get a job
IF only I had enough time
IF only times were better
IF only I was more connected
What will your 2009 look like
What were the reasons you didn't start a business
What were the reasons you didn't learn how to market and write ads
What were the reasons you didn't learn how to make money in your sleep
What have you missed out on in 2008
You missed out on having people just call and say Thank You
You missed out on making an extra money
You missed out on the journey of learning information that will enable you to gain and loose a million dollars and always be able to build it again
Become responsible for your own success in 2009
