GET STUPID!
I am often asked "What is the secret to MLM success?". In this
article, I will give you that elusive answer. You might be
surprised.
First, let's examine your Company:
There are some real business builders in your company, right?
People who make a lot of money? They represent the same company
you do, right? Since they represent the same company you do, the
company can not be the problem, because they have proven you can
make money with this company.
Let's now look at your policies and procedures:
Does your company have the same policies and procedures for
everyone? Of course they do. Since the heavy hitters are required
to operate under the same policies and procedures as you do, you
are not at a disadvantage. Therefore, the policies and procedures
are not the problem.
Now, lets look at the compensation plan.
Does the company have the same Compensation Plan for everyone who
joins? Are the real business builders under the same Compensation
Plan as you, only a little higher up, and because of their
production, maybe receiving some special bonuses? Will you be
allowed to earn the same bonuses as they are when you reach their
level? If the answer to each of these questions are "yes", then
the Compensation Plan can not be the problem.
Now, let's look at the products:
Are the real business builders selling the same products as you
are? Of course they are. So the products are not the problem.
What is left? Only YOU.
You are the reason you have not achieved any more than what you
have. It is not the fault of the company, its policies and
procedures, its compensation plan, or its products. Other
people
have achieved greatness with you company, operating under the
same rules you are, and selling the same products. So what is the
problem? The problem is simply YOU.
YOU have to make the decision to work your business. YOU have to
focus. YOU have to make the necessary sacrifices. YOU have to
step outside your comfort zone. No one else can do this for you,
only YOU.
Don't make excuses by saying others are smarter. I know some very
successful Network Marketers who, honestly, are as dumb as dirt.
Maybe being stupid is an advantage. Those who are stupid are not
smart enough to see the problems and pitfalls. Those who are
stupid are not embarrassed to approach their friends and family.
Those who are stupid don't know enough to look at something and
say "Naw, that ain't gonna work" and thus, never try. Those who
are stupid see opportunities without limitations. Those who are
stupid do not feel the shame of failure. Those who are stupid do
not listen to the advice of the naysayers. But yet, those who are
stupid succeed!
The secret to Network Marketing success is being too dadblame
stupid to recognize the problems and pitfalls, and thereby
doggedly doing those things all the smart people say will never
work.
So, tonight, before you lay down and go to sleep, get on your
knees and beg your maker that tomorrow you may wake up stupid.
