Success Is A Way Of Life - Not A Destination

I want to talk about addition and multiplying and the difference between followers and leaders. The title of this blog post is followers are thinking of adding while leaders think of multiplying. What does that mean?



Well, basically what it means in essence is the most people think too small. I love Grant Cardone book 10X, because he talks about 10 X ing it, multiplying 10 times, whatever your goals are, whatever your dreams are. Because most people just think too small. And the reason why a l...

I want to talk about how to win on social media and online. How do you win on social media? How do you get the best results? How do you defeat your competition on social media?



The answer to that is, out-teach everybody. Out-teach, what does that mean? Give more valuable information than anybody out there. Give more useful information than any of your competitors. Solve more problems, answer more questions than anybody out there who's trying to compete in your space, in your niche.

If you do th...

I want to talk about sacrifice and the fact that there's never something for nothing. You have to plant the seed before you can expect the harvest, you have to put the wood in a stove before you can expect the heat, it cannot be done any other way around. It has to be like that.



Same way in your life, and especially your business, there has to be something that you sacrifice in order to get something that you've never had in your life. Often I meet people who say, “Oh, I'm so disappointed, I...

I want to talk about giving up on your dreams.



Time to time I get a message from somebody, from a leader or a growing leader in other companies, or sometimes even in my own company, saying, “Look, my leader mistreated me, humiliated me, made me feel embarrassed, criticized me in front of other people. So I decided I'll quit the business.” And I always say, well, that's the worst thing you could do. That's the worst decision that you can make. Because you're going to give up on your dreams,...

I want to talk about how to get more people to join your Facebook group.



You have a Facebook group, maybe that's a product group for your customers, maybe it's a business opportunity group, maybe it's a hobby group or a special interest group or whatever group you're trying to grow. And of course, you want more people joining your group and interacting. You don't just want any people to join, but you want good quality people to join your group. And you want loads of them. But how can you get t...

I want to talk about reminding about yourself to your customers. What do I mean? Why would you have to do that?



Because the mistake I did when I first started in home based business, I would sell a product to somebody, I would deliver the product, give them my business card, and I would hope that they would call me. When they need more product, they would give me a ring, they will reach out to me. And when that didn't happen, I was like, “Oh, maybe they didn't like my product. Maybe they're ...

I want to talk about building your business locally or globally.



Very often, people ask this question, “Should I build my business locally or globally? How should I build it?” And as with most things, there's few sides to this thing. One side is about building locally in order to be more efficient, because the grass is always greener. And I've seen so many people, they have hundreds of thousands of people in their own city, in their own town, but they look to build in Timbuktu, like thousa...

I want to talk about support, and the fact that you should stop requiring it.



Many times I hear people saying, “Oh, I would love to succeed in network marketing, but my spouse is not supporting me, my wife or my husband is not supporting me. I'd love to get great results, but my friends and family are not supporting me. I'd love to get great results in the business, but this person and that person is not supporting me.” What does that have to do with you succeeding? What does that have to ...

I want to talk about the time and how you invest your time with what type of people. Especially when it comes to your business and building your team, you have to spend your time wisely. And like Brian Tracy, I believe says, “You should invest your time with people who deserve it, not with people who need it.”



Very often people who need your time, they will try to hog you all of your time. But those are not the people who you should be spending your time with, because you should be spendin...

I want to share with you one of the biggest shifts and mind sets that I've experienced in my life and that has helped me really to shift my results and shift my understanding in life and in business, and hope you're going to find this useful as well. This topic is trade your envy or jealousy into gratitude.



Now, this was a big lesson for me because when I first started in a home based business, when I first started doing personal development, I've never done any personal development until that...

I want to talk about pain and vision, what's the difference and how does it affect you and your goals? The title of this blog post is that your pain pushes you until your vision pulls you. What does that mean?



Like they say most people get into a business, especially into like a home based business, either out of desperation, or out of inspiration. Some people are just in a situation in life, where they run out of options and they just say, “Hey, I've got nothing to lose anymore. I might as ...

I want to give you a good question to ask, if you struggle with closing because some people, they don't feel that comfortable at the end of the presentation or the end of a meeting when they have to get a decision from the prospect, they don't really feel nice having to get the person to give them the decision.



But most of the time it’s just about knowing what to ask and what to say. And a great question to ask, especially at the end of the presentation, a person asked a question, they asked...

I want to talk about how to improve your customer or potential business partner avatar.



First of all, what is a customer avatar? Well, that's like an ideal person that you want to be talking to, on your social media, in your marketing, in your advertising, and so on. Because, like they say things that suit everyone usually don't suit anyone. Some people say, “Well, the whole world is my market, anybody can do my business.”

Well, that may be true, but you probably have a certain group of peo...

I want to talk about whether your social media is a toy, or it's a money making machine. What do I mean when I say is your social media a toy or a money making machine?



Well, social media for a lot of people is just the way to pass the time. It's just the way to kill some time and they say killing time is not a homicide, it’s a suicide. What does it mean? It's your own time you're wasting. That's what the teachers used to say.

A lot of people are consumers on social media; they go on social m...

I want to talk about the seven levels of why.



Very often when you talk to your potential business partner, of course, you should ask them, “Hey, why do you want to do this thing? Why are you looking for an extra income right now? Why are you looking to build your home based business?”

But very often the first answer they will give you, it's a superficial answer, which means it's near the surface. It's not really a deep reason; not really, their dream and ambition, they just going to give yo...

I want to talk about what do successful people do in order to become so successful and why do they get better results in network marketing business?



Very often when I talk to, especially to new people in home based business, they say, “Well, what's the secret Gediminas? What's the secret? What do successful people do? What do they know that I don't know?” I met so many people in 10 years of being in home based business; I've met so many people who think that successful people are hiding so...

I want to talk about reverse engineering your success.



As I study successful people, as I read books of successful people, as I attend seminars, and so on by successful business people successful actors and things like that, I find it many times I hear this thing that many successful people do; and what they do is reverse engineer their success. What does that mean?

Instead of sort of having your fingers crossed and hoping that everything works out fine? What they do, they first of all, think o...

I want to talk about edification.



Edification is a big part of network marketing and a successful home based business because it helps us to gain trust of people without looking ridiculous and without bragging. It wouldn't really look good if you and me go to somebody's house to do a presentation or to show them the business and I talk really well about myself and you talk really well about yourself, we would just both look like assholes, like just bragging and trying to look cool, that’s re...

I want to talk about if you’re green you grow, if you're ripe, you're rot. This is a famous saying by Ray Kroc, the founder of McDonald's Corporation, he used to say if you're green you grow, if you’re ripe you rot. What does that even mean?



Well, it means that you should never arrive, you should never be too cool for school. One of the most dangerous things for an entrepreneur to say, is I know it all. I've been to the trainings, I've read the book, I've been to the seminar, I know everyt...

I want to talk about the fact that entrepreneurs develop a long term mindset. This topic is that entrepreneurs develop a long term mindset.



When it comes to business, very often people who come from an employee environment, and that's majority of the people who come into the home based business arena, or network marketing, they struggle at the beginning to wrap their brain around how money is earned. Because most people are used to a job; an employee gets a new job, works for a week or two wee...

I want to talk about sponsoring versus recruiting. What's the difference because some people look at it as synonyms?



It's the same thing. But there's actually a difference between being a recruiter or a sponsor. What I mean by that is the recruiter for me is somebody who just recruits people, but sort of leaves them to their own devices, doesn't really look after them, doesn't really train them, doesn't really support them, etcetera. Whereas a sponsor, on the other hand, is somebody who brings...

I want to talk about motivation and they say about 98% of people who become world champions; become Olympic gold medallists and reach the top of whatever sphere of life, they have this burning desire, they have this hunger to achieve something and reach something.



But the problem is that the very large percent of them, once they reach the gold medal, once they become World Champion, they lose that drive, they lose that desire, they lose that hunger, and they plummet down and somebody else take...

I want to talk about a mistake that might be costing you money on social media. What is this mistake that I'm talking about that could be costing you money, could be reducing your results, and could be the thing that you're missing in your social media game?



That mistake is not putting a CTA in your posts or videos. What is a CTA? CTA is Call To Action. You see, a lot of people make a mistake in their social media when they make written posts, or they’re making a video or they’re making a ...

I want to talk about life changing idea and that’s why the blog post is called Small hinge big door, what does that mean? And really, if you think about it, hinges are quite small, and they can move a huge door compared to the size of the hinge, the door is massive. What does it have to do with your business?



Well, it's like small ideas that have big effect in your business or your life. When I attend training events, or I read books, or watch video programs, or listen to audio podcasts, I'm...

I just want to share one idea from one of the speakers, Marina Simone, who shared a lot about building your business on Instagram.



But one of the things she said, make a friend and find their pain. A lot of us we’re quite robotic, with our social medias and, and we just post and message. We all need to do that right in order to reach out to as many people add friends, etcetera. But what really makes a difference in your social media is that emotion, is building that emotional connection with...

I want to talk about how to overcome the fear of rejection.



Fear of rejection is really a pain in the ass in network marketing business and in many other businesses too. People are just scared, people are scared of somebody saying no to them, people are scared of people shooting down their offer, people are scared of not getting the approval from people that they respect and like, and maybe we develop that as part of growing up where we all like other boys and girls to like us, etcetera. Maybe...

I want to talk a little bit about doing long distance product demonstrations.



Yesterday, I was participating in a mastermind with different network marketing leaders from different network marketing companies and there were a few ladies from a big well known makeup company that she had a really cool strategy that they do.

Now because they deal with skincare and cosmetics, etcetera, what they did, usually before the quarantine, before the lockdown, they would meet up with people and do these pam...

I want to talk about the initial excitement. The title of this blog post is everything is exciting at the beginning.



When you get a new job when you get a new girlfriend, new boyfriend, when you get a new car, new TV, etcetera, all of these things are super exciting at the beginning, isn't it. But after some time, that initial excitement wears off, and that job becomes a bit of a routine and you don't get so excited to get up in the morning and go to that job anymore. Well guess what? Your bus...

I want to talk about who is your recruiting scripts not going to work on?



We all learn different scripts; we all learn different techniques, how to approach people, what messages to send on social media etcetera. But this one group of people that most of your scripts will not work on. Do you want to guess who these people are? I'm going to tell you. These people are people from other network marketing companies. 99% of the time, when you're going to get a negative feedback after using a script...
