Your not alone

I wanted to share with you an email  that I received from one of my mentors:

You Are Not Alone Marina and I just returned from Hawaii where we conducted a 3-day leadership training for a company incentive trip so no video today but I still have a message for you. You are not alone. I know it feels that way sometimes in our business.  It can be a lonely effort sometimes.  For the most part, you are calling on your own, meeting prospects on your own, driving to meetings on your own, etc. etc. But in your quest to fulfill your dreams in Network Marketing, you are NOT alone.  First, there are people in your company who are invested in your future.  Second, there are millions of people around the world doing exactly what you're doing right now.  And third, I'm your biggest fan and I KNOW you're going to make it to the top. I believe it, even if you don't right now. So if you're doubting yourself, borrow a little of that belief. You've got this.  It's going to take some work and some time, but it will all be worth it. I hope that helps and make it a GREAT week! Your friend & partner, Do you get these type of emails from the people you associate yourself with?

Pressure

Pressure is something you and I feel everyday isn't it? It's nothing like feeling stressed,  having a lot of things to do, a lot of places to go, a lot of responsibilities, a little bit of over whelmed. During this stage we are asking ourselves, "How are we going to get it done?" Psychiatrist studies shows that stress is life  and that every human has to get use to it. We'll there is a truth about that. There is a certain amount of stress or pressure that you and I are going to feel everyday. Now, what I have determined is that many times it's not what happens to me, it's what happens in me. For example, you have two people who are in the same situation, same pressure,  same circumstance and ones tends do better then the other. That's because that person would understand it's not the outward pressure it's inward response. One of my older mentors  told me that "he determined a long time ago that he cannot always choose whats going to happen to me, but he can choose what is going to happen in me."

Self Control

There is a lot of things in life I can't control like your behavior, I can't control what life does to me today, which is a lot of things that you go through in life that you just hope every thing turns out well. For certainly you or I don't have control over it. But, I do have control over my self. The decisions I make, the thoughts I think they are mine. What is wonderful is almost all of success doesn't determine by things I can't control but it is determine by the things I can. So quite worrying about what you can't do, what you can't control and start worrying about the things you can control. The little things that are going to turn out big in your life like your decisions, attitudes, and values which is those things that make a difference.

Self control is a good word and it basically says we can't be and should be responsible for our selves.

Transportation

Transportation can mean a lot for a person who does a lot of it. For instance when delta tells you that you have flown over 4 million miles on them, and america airlines says you have flown over 2 million miles on them and so forth with other carriers then you know you have done a lot of transportation. But  isn't it amazing what it does for us. The fact that we can go to one place to another with such ease. Now can you imagine such barriers between transformation 100 or 200 years ago. The time that it took  things that we never  experienced because transportation was never fast nor easy. So today it means exposure, it means we can get exposed to things that one time people was not exposed too. We get to experience things that one time people was not able to experience. Here is a question for you! Forget the plane ride, the train ride, and the car ride. How about you! Are you taking people on a journey to where they need to be, or should be? Are you transporting people to a new level of living? I hope you are! Because here is what I learned by successful people that they don't take the journey alone they take someone with them.

So who are you taking with you on your journey that is going to make a difference in their life?

Getting Unstuck

We as humans are always stuck in situations.  So how do we get UNSTUCK? Now, this is difficult because you always get unstuck at the place where you get stuck. So when people want to get unstuck we tend to see them run a lot of times from the place they had got stuck. And I want to stop them and say they don't understand you got to go back to the place where you got stuck and ask yourself. What happen? And not to punish yourself or beat up yourself and realize what my mistake was and how do I get out of that mistake. See most of the problems we have in life within them hold the answers, but we are too impatient to pill back the problem to find the answer. We look at the problem in such a negative way that we don't even want to talk about it, think about it, and not even be near it and off we run. But just some advice, if you really want to get unstuck go to the place where you was stuck.

Do you have curiosity syndrome?

A person who has curiosity syndrome is when that persons life is always exciting and they are creative. This syndrome will allow that person to realize that there is a relationship between being curious and being creative. I'm pretty sure we all know these type of people that have that "been there, done that attitude." When a person is like that you mines well put their name in the obituary column. They are gone, finished just burnt out. Curious people they are going to live until they die and they are going to enjoy their life. They are not going to go through life trying to figure what happen to me, they are going to be looking everyday what is happening and making things happen.  

Curious people are creative and it's good to courage yourself  to develop that trait in your life , which is a choice. But do understand that you don't have to be boring, be curious and out of that become a creative individual.

Risk Taker

What does a risk taker do in their life? They are encouraging,  helping people to take steps that they had never taken before. Now why does a risk taker do that? We do that because we know the only way we can increase the capacity of growth is to get them where they never gone and to do what they have never done. You and I have heard of the definition INSANITY! Statements like " If I always do what I always done", "I always get what has already been gotten".  Whole bunch of people live this lifestyle everyday. Then they wonder why they are not getting more out of life, well they are not getting any more out of life because they are not giving more to life. See if you watching a baseball game you cannot steal second base by keeping one foot on first base , it's to far of a stretch. You always have to let go of something to get something better.

Which is what a Risk Taker do!
