Today I want to talk to you about speaking with your team members about their goals because too many leaders are talking about their own goals, not their team members goals, and it is a bit crazy if you go to your team and go, “Hey, I need to reach this level, can you please do some more? Hey, I want to hit this rank, can you please sell some more?” Doesn't make much sense, does it? It's a lot more effective when we're talking to a team member about their goals and we try to find out what...

I want to talk about why you're not making more money. Are you making this mistake about money?



Now, if right now, whatever amount of money you make, and maybe you’re making 2000 a month, maybe you’re making 3000 a month, maybe 5000 a month, etc. whatever amount of money you’re making, I will guess that that amount of money is a couple of hundred pounds away from what you need to survive. So you probably have your monthly bills; the amount of money you have to pay for your mortgage or yo...

I want to talk about what do leaders do when it gets challenging?



When it's good, when it's going well, when it's a great season, when everything's working, everybody's growing. A successful person and not so successful, a leader and the amateur, everybody's growing, when everything is nice, and everything's going fine. The economy is great, the company's doing fantastic. Everybody is growing.

But the real leadership is shown in crisis, the real leadership, you can see when the going gets tough...

I want to talk about goals and how our vision changes.



Usually the last day of the month most of you network marketers are striving to hit your levels, are striving to hit your qualifications etcetera, and some months you will make it and some months unfortunately, it's just not going to happen. It's just the next qualification; the next level might be a little bit too far, a little bit not enough time and you don't hit the level. The temptation is when you don't reach your goal, when you don'...

I want to talk about the two seasons of business, what is the sowing season and the second one is the reaping season.



The sowing season is the investment stage where we’re putting in a lot of time and effort, and we don't necessarily see very much result but we put in all of this work and we put in all of this effort.

And then the reaping season is when we’re making the money, when we’re getting the results, when we’re getting the reward for all the sowing that we did.

But the very g...

I want to talk about chipping away the pieces that are not you. You know, when they asked Michelangelo, who sculpted the statue of David, one of the most incredible statues in the history of the world and when they asked him, “How did you make the statue of David from this piece of marble?” He said, “Well, I was simply chipping away all the pieces of marble that were not David.” So instead of trying to chip the David's shape, he was chipping away what was not David.



I thought that real...

I want to talk about who is watching you and what type of example are you setting.



So I want to talk about who's watching you and who is following your example. And, of course, one of the groups of people that are watching if you can say that, are your kids, your kids are watching you and they're watching what type of example you're setting. So if you have children, what you do in business is not just business, it's also family life. Why? Because your children are watching you and they say, wh...

I want to talk about the delay of results. The title of this blog post is that what you do today doesn't show up until tomorrow. What does that mean?



It means that there is a slight delay on the change in your life. Very often, let's say you didn't do much work, and then you go, “Okay, what I'm going to do? I'm going to now really focus and really start working hard in my business and you start doing this work and work and work and there's no result and you go, “Oh my Gosh, it doesn't work...

I want to talk about who is your real competition in network marketing, it surely isn't the other network marketing companies. The title of this blog post is that other network marketing companies are not your competition.



But who is your competition? Who are you competing against? So you have to understand that other network marketing companies are really your competition, because nowadays, almost all network marketing companies are pretty much the same; they all have different products and s...

I want to talk about why your mind needs a mentor. The title of this blog post is that your mind needs a mentor.



What's a mentor? Mentor is a person who helps you out, who gives you a tip, who gives you advice, who you can learn from, who you can model; model meaning copying them; watching what they do, and doing similar things will usually give you a similar results. And it's basically a person who knows the road ahead, because if you're going on your own, then you're fighting against all of ...

I want to talk about making money or watching other people make money. This topic is about; are you making money or you're watching other people make money?



Do you know what the TV is called? It's called EIR; Electronic Income Reducer. Well, don't get me wrong, I like a good movie; I like to watch some things with the family, so I’m not like. “Ah, throw away you TV!” However, if most of your time; if like every evening you’re spending watching movies, watching sports, watching TV, then...

I want to talk about being a person who goes the extra mile. The title of this blog post is don't do the best you can do your best.



Too many people just try to do the bare minimum in order to progress in life and it doesn't work like that. It's a typical workplace where the employee is doing as less as possible, not to get fired and the employer is paying the less as possible for the person not to quit the job; and neither of them two are happy. The person is not happy because they're not gett...

I want to talk about the compound effect or compounding effect. What's the compound effect?



I think it was Albert Einstein who said the compounding effect is the greatest force in the universe and it works pretty damn well when we talk about investments; when you invest money and that investment earns interest and then you get interest on that interest. It's amazing when over time your money keeps growing. But also, the same compounding effect works in your business, in your work that you put ...

I want to talk about exampleship is that even a word? I don't think it's a word, but somebody made it up, and I'll just roll with it; exampleship versus leadership.



Very often, leaders, they just want to be managers, they want to be telling people what to do and not all leaders are like that, and some leaders are really doing the work. But the problem is with both; the leaders who are just telling other people what to do, and leaders who are just doing what they need to do is that both of thes...

Today I wanted to talk about one of my all-time favourite books, a book that truly changed my life and many thousands and thousands of other people's lives, and I wanted to share it with you, perhaps you will find it useful, perhaps you will get value from it as well, perhaps you'll get it for yourself, and you'll read it. Truly, you'll get the value that I got from it as well.



What is this book; why is it so awesome and why do I love it so much? This book was written by a guy called Og Mandin...
