It isn't as difficult as it looks. Just take a look at Remy. He always gets to wherever he wants to go. He just has to want it enough and then he experiments until he figures out how to get there.
Network marketing isn't much different and it really isn't that complicated. But if you think you can achieve your goals without hard work, then think again. Your new business endeavors will take you through a series of what Dr. Tom Barrett describes as "The Three Psychological Stages of Network Marketing" in his book Dare to Dream and Work to Win.
Stage One is "It's Not Worth It". And an awful lot of people just plain give up right here, or flit off to some other business opportunity. Money doesn't come in and your efforts don't seem to be getting anywhere. No one misses this stage, including the most successful marketers. But that's when you have to reaffirm your motivation and commitment. Keep focused on learning and training to foster your dream, and keep following up on your plan. "In network marketing," says Dr. Barrett, "entrepreneurs are paid for their vision, courage, and stamina." It may take a while but you do eventually move on.
Stage Two: "It Is Worth It." Suddenly, the money flow into your coffers improves and the financial rewards seem acceptable for the effort you're putting in. Momentum builds. Your whole being is uplifted and you begin to feel successful. But, as Dr. Barrett points out, there's an inherent danger here. You become a bit self satisfied, relax, concentrate on other things and take your foot off the accelerator. But you won't enjoy the view for long. Because as you slow down, so does your business - and your income. You have to stay focused on what you did to reach this level, and keep going.
Dr. Barrett describes Stage 3 as "I'm Not Worth This Much." When he wrote his book, he acknowledged that he wasn't there yet. Neither am I. But it sure is a nice place to dream about - and work to achieve. What does it take to get to this level? Motivation, commitment, effort, learning, training, more effort. As Dr. Barrett opines: "Entrepreneurs .... are paid for staring down fear, ignoring fatigue, fighting loneliness, pushing through discouragement, and walking by faith."
All it takes is motivation, commitment, and dogged determination.
