This topic has bugged me for a while so I figured why not just write about it. Alright so let’s get to it.
Well to start I should ask you a question.
What do you want out of your business?
I mean profit wise; do you want short term profits or long term success?
Well most would say long term success, but most of the people joining network marketing today are thinking in the short term.
So why do people have network marketing backwards today?
Well before I go on I can’t honestly say I know that people have always been this way.
Lets face it I don’t know what the industry was like 50 years ago, but I know what its like right now.
In all honesty the past doesn’t matter, only the future matters (because you can control it). With that being said let me continue.
So why do people have network marketing backwards?
Simple, people think about themselves first which is completely backwards.
This is mainly the reason that people die off in this industry so fast.
Excuse my French, but why the hell would I want to join with a person who doesn’t care about my success. Is that the kind of person who is going to be there for me through thick and thin? Of course not, they wanted your money and they were thinking in the short term.
The day you stop concentrating on yourself and honestly start to help people is the day you achieve your success. Once you help enough people achieve their goals you will achieve yours I guarantee it. This is where the long term success and profits come into play.
You must be a mentor with a servants heart. The number of people you help will be a direct reflection of the money you make. Zig Ziglar once said,
“The more you help people get what they want, the more you will get what you want.”
You need to be willing to give, give, give, give and give some more before you can get. This is vitally important to your long term success in this industry. Because this industry can be amazingly gratifying when people tell you they just bought that new house or whatever it was they were striving towards.
Moral of this story, give give give, before you can get get get. The sooner you decide to become a mentor with a servants heart the sooner you have success. So start right now, go help someone near you do something to get used to it.
