Network Marketing Success – What Makes You Succeed, Part 2
by admin on Dec.13, 2009, under General
We will now discuss the positive motivating factors, and I am going to assume that you have read my previous article (‘Part 1′), which deals with the negative motivational issues. The positive motivators ‘attract’, while the negative ones ‘push away from’. If we can get them to act in the same direction, it’s an ideal situation!
Lou Tice, founder of the Pacific Institute, once told the story of how he had to assist a world-class African athlete to overcome a physical problem. Although this guy was Olympic material, he often developed a physical pain so bad that he had to stop running. After listening to the athlete’s story, Tice advised him to quit running altogether. You see, Tice found that the athlete could support his family with the proceeds from his wins, and that was his main motivator. According to Tice it was simply not a good enough motivation for such a lofty goal.
There is no such thing as a person who gets good at anything overnight. I think the media are guilty of creating the wrong impression here. They present an incorrect timeline by (inadvertently) depicting the change from loser to winner, from obscurity to stardom, in a few episodes on TV or within the duration of a single movie.
In the real world the ‘instant success’ is more often than not preceded by years, even decades, of practice, hardships and disappointments. This is applicable basically to any field of endeavor. So, on your way to becoming that marketing ’superhero’, you are going to meet with numerous distractions and disappointments. You will often ask yourself if this was a good idea in the first place, and you will want to quit on many occasions.
So it is only logical that your reasons for pursuing a specific course of action should be so good that they are more important than any setbacks. To excel at anything, be that sports, painting, gardening, or network marketing, you have to be hang in there for as long as it takes to be successful. And for that you require an exceptionally high level of motivation, preferably of the positive kind! So how do you get this?
To start off, you have to get yourself to a point of ‘must’. You must have no option but to achieve that goal. And to get to this magical point, you have to find yourself some magnificent ‘why’s. The better the ‘why’s you have, and the more congruent they are, the better. What I mean by magnificence is that the end result must really resonate within you at a gut level. On a scale of 0 to 10 it must be able to evoke a ‘10′ response. Sweaty skin. Heart beating faster. Pupils dilated.
I do not know what your motivators might be; you will have to do a lot of soul-searching. Draw up a ‘wish list’, and order the items with the most desirable one at the top. Then look at the ones at the top. If they evoke that magic euphoric response, if you must achieve them whatever the cost, come hell or high water, despite all odds, you’re doing good. If they only get a nine-out-of-ten rating, you might have to re-consider.
I would like to offer a word of advice here. In this series of articles I am focusing on issues that pertain directly or indirectly to money. Money is EXTREMELY important. But so is health, friendship and peace of mind, for example. The bottom line is this: you cannot have anything if it is not important to you. So if someone tries to tell you money is not important, don’t believe him – he’s broke.
Network marketing success and the money associated with it is not the ultimate goal. It is some of the magnificent things you can do with that money. So when (not ‘if’) you become that network marketing success story, and you do break through the million-dollar-a-year ceiling – what’s your life gonna look like? Your physical surroundings? Your friends? Your toys? Your looks? The hospital in Africa you will be sponsoring? This is the time to get super-creative!
Join me in my next article where I’ll show you how you can program your subconscious mind to pursue your goals. And no, it’s not the re-hashed old ‘goal setting and affirmation’ story.
