Reminders of Your Personal Defining Moment

Its wierd.

I am getting one friend added everyday on Skype from China. And surprise surprise, they are all girls. All younger than me too!

Either my profile is really sticky, or my profile pic is sticky. I would think both!

Hahah!!

There was this one interest conversation I had with a girl called Mia. She is from Guang Zhou. We were chatting for a while, and then she said this,

“I want to live a meaningful life. I want to be able to afford to give my parents a wonderful life. And I can only do it with money!”

 The interesting thing is this.

Her profile summary specifically says this,

“I am a girl who wants a simple and quiet life.”

I quoted her profile back to her and she agreed,

“Yeah, heh, that’s quite contradictory.”

All it took to bring her into that unlimited mindset, was this question,

“Had you ever thought of ever running your own business?”

This question sparked off a string of conversations that led to her dreaming again.

What am I driving at?

I have a confession to make. I got hooked on YouTube. It was click after click until I almost forgot about meals! When I got up in the morning, I was thinking about what YouTube video I should watch next! To make matters worse, watching all those videos tired out my eyes (I have an eye condition), and gave me a migraine, which forced me to sleep!

Friends, everyone, and anyone needs a reminder once in a while to keep our eyes on the prize. Chatting with Mia reminded me why I resigned and took away my mother’s retirement fund.

Chatting with me reminded Mia why she is slogging away at Uni, making herself valuable to the marketplace.

Imagine if you had the ability to constantly inundate yourself to peak levels of performance and focus. What could you do if you had so much affirmation, you literally hypnotised yourself for success?

Don’t believe it can be done?

Now imagine if you did the exercise everyday, reminding yourself why you chose to be an entrepreneur. Why you chose to participate in free enterprise? What was your “Personal Defining Moment” - Johnny Wimbrey?

The Secret of Prospecting Without Losing Your Friends!

I am a huge fan of Tony Michael, our Vice President of Sales and Marketing in SuccessUniversity. He became the youngest person to ever be featured in “6 Figure Income” magazine. In fact, he was already earning a six figure income at the age of 19!

He started his MLM business at the age of 18. He had no network, no skills, no mentor. Only a desire to succeed, that is only exceeded by the willingness to overcome fear and failure.

He taught this phrase that helps any MLM business owner to very quickly get eyeballs to your website/prospecting tool.

 First, make the call. Very important step.

Small talk for only 1 min max. Do not get into the MLM side of things after 1 min. It had been proven and tested that it will back fire, so you want to get into it quick.

Say this. Word for word first for 50 calls. If you get positive response (i.e. they agree to take a look) for 40 calls, continue using it. If not, test and modify to fit your environment/personality etc.

“I came across something useful that I don’t know if it will interest you or not, but I want you to take a look, just to make sure. Do you have a pen and paper handy?”

 That’s it! That is useful for friends and family members you want to expose this to.

It is effective because this immediately gets people off the hook. People are naturally negative and they just want to poke holes into your ideas. By saying that they may not be interested, it lets their guard down. More open. That’s what you want.

Some of us want to go in with so much energy and enthusiasm that you will yank the hook off the fish! Remember, you had already attracted them with the bait, now reel them in gently. This is network marketing, not hard core sales. Not everyone will buy. But some, like you and I, are looking for exactly this opportunity! Look for people like us!

Go test this out and see your results explode the roof!
