Is Your Business PRIMARY or SECONDARY?
I want to talk about your business, and
whether its primary, or secondary.
I remember one of the training events I
attended, and the trainer said, “Write down, where does your main income coming
in from so your job, like the company name or whatever you're working for. And
then next to that, write down your network marketing business, company name.”
And he said, “Put a star next to the one that is your primary.”
So what is the
main thing, and the other thing revolves around it. And of course, at that
time, my main income was coming in from my day job, right from nine to five. So
of course, I mark that. And of course, most people do that. And the speaker
then went on to say that as long as your main job remains your primary focus,
you will struggle to make it in your home based business. Now, there's an
important distinction here. It's not about the amount of time you spend, it's
not about quitting your job, so you could spend 60 hours a week working in your
job, and 10 hours a week doing your business, but your business can still be
the primary, you have to wrap your brain around it.
It's not about amount of time, it's not about, you
have to quit your job in order to succeed in network marketing, or in order to
succeed in your business, but it's psychologically, what is your primary thing?
So I'll give you an example. Somebody might be working 40 hours a week as a customer
service representative, but the dream is to become a comedian. So on their
spare time, on weekends, and whatever, they'll go and do stand up comedy.
The main job, what's paying their bills is actually the customer service
representative job, but their passion is the comedy. So they will spend every
minute of their free time learning new jokes, will be spending time around
other people who are into comedy, who like joke, sharing jokes, they will be
going on weekends and performing and standing up on a stage and telling jokes because that's their primary objective.
Even though right now the
customer service representative job is paying their bills, that's not their
passion, that's not their primary focus, that's not what they associating their
future with, their dream, their primary thing is the comedy even though they
only spend a few hours a week doing that, and most of the week, they spent
working in a job, you understand what I'm saying? And this million examples
like that, somebody works as a bar staff but their dream is to become an actor.
Again, they might be working all week as a bar
staff to pay the bills. But the dream, the passion is the acting. So they spend
every free minute going to acting classes and meeting other actor friends and
going auditioning for roles and things like that. You know what I mean? So your
network marketing business is exactly the same way. Right now you might be a
nurse, you might be a teacher, you might be an accountant, you might be a
lawyer, you might be a doctor, you might be a warehouse operator, you might be
a hairdresser, whatever it is that you're doing right now to pay your bills,
it's totally fine.
But until psychologically, in your head, your network
marketing business becomes your primary focus, you're not going to make it, as
long as you’re compromising, as long as you do your network marketing business
if you feel like it's after doing your day job, if there is enough spare time, and
if you still have some energy, when it's convenient for you to do it, then
you're not going to make it. You have to become obsessed by it, you have to
become focused on it, spend every free minutes studying it, watching videos,
attending trainings, meeting other people who are in network marketing, right?
So you can share ideas, bounce off each other, etcetera, spend every minute
showing your business to other people showing your products, doing as much of
it as you can, and focusing on it.
Even if you are at your day job, like one
of our leaders said, they said they were speaking to a team member and the team
member said, “Oh, tomorrow, I can't do anything about the business because I'm
going to work.” And she said, “Well, you don't leave your brain at home when
you go to work, do you?” So even if you had your day job, doing your job, you
can still be thinking, planning, strategizing your home based business, you
know what I mean? So you do your day job to earn a living, but you do your
business to make your fortune, you’re building your fortune.
So that's where it
has to psychologically even though time wise, your job right now is the primary
source of income, your business has to become your primary focus, your primary
objective, that's what you should be associating your future with. That's what
you should be investing all of your mental energy in, because that's the only
way for it to pickup and start giving you twice more money than your job three
times or10 times more, until it becomes a nonsense for you to keep going to
that day job because you’re making more money part time in your business than
you do full time in your job.
