Create Opportunities for yourself in a Downed Economy
Going back to 2008 I found myself at the point of my career where my job title defined who I was. It was a scary feeling that as I watched people come and go due to layoffs and downsizing...I started to realize that if I was to lose my job, what would I have to support my family and how would I fit into my network of friends.
This is the reality today, where most people believe that what they do is what makes them important....not what they have, or who they are. They cling so tightly to the power they possess by their title and responsibility....yet its so fragile because it can be taken away at anytime.
I came to realize that in this economy you constantly need to be improving on your skills...transferable skills, and experience to stay ahead of the game. When I was layed off I had 2 small children under the age of 2, I was in my late thirties and I asked myself....what would happen if I was 50 or 55 and I lost my job....what would my plan B look like?
I decided to spend some quality time with my children, look for some answers and pursue my passions. Its funny when your looking for something it ends up finding you.
I had heard of network marketing before, and I like most didn't understand it....nor did I want to. But when I realized that nothing is this world is stable...our jobs, our way of life.....I became intreged on how so many people succeed, and why so many people failed and had negative perceptions about the industry. I started to understand the market we are in, and people are looking for opportunities, and a way out.....plus even though I got phone calls from my old collegues saying they missed me...they were not going to be the ones helping me pay my bills or my morgage.
Sometimes you have to take a leap of faith, follow a dream and set some goals...and create an opportunity for yourself.

Don't put all your eggs in one Basket
I started to read countless books on business, marketing and self help. I realized I was looking for something I wasn't going to find in any class or lecture hall. Some of the wealthest people in this world have very little formal education...so what did they know that I didn't?
When I did my research on Network Marketing I soon learnt that its fundimentals of business is far superior to traditional business models as each steakholder has vest interest in the companies outcome, and the earning potiental is limitless and residual.
Success comes with creating new and profitable habits. Most of the objections I experience is due to time or money. Unfortunately it takes both to create something for yourself....to create a plan B.
If people would shut off their TV for an hor or more per day they would have time to work in this industry and get behind a product they love. It takes money to make money...and in most networking businesses it is a very low barrier to entry compared to slapping down hundreds of thousands of dollars in a tradition business or franchise...which you would spend the majority of your time doing, not to mention thousands of dollars in overhead.
You have the ablitity in a good networking opportunity to start earning money right away. You don't get paid by the hour, you get paid by the value you bring to the hour. What do you invest your time in presently that you could better use elsewhere building your dreams....its within reach. If you don't run the day, the day will run you.
You work harder on yourself than you do on your job or business.

If its Ment to Be its Up to Me
Most people get caught in the lower quadrant of the picture to the right as they have self doubt, or fear holding them back.
I had a ton of fear when I started....I wanted to know everything about it all. But the more I read the more I understood, and this translated into confidence and attracted more people to me.
There is a difference in the way a successful person thinks vs. someone who is just getting by in life. If Donald Trump all of the sudden lost everything he had....he has the skills and the ability to start it all over and most likely be as successful or more successful.
I learnt that embracing change, with a high willingness to learn and listen. Has opened my horizons to a new level. Once you aquire the skills of networking, you have them...and through continuous learning, they will grow and grow.....I have associated myself with a mastermind group of people that have succeeded in this industry for years. Everyone is mentored by someone, and they say that your salary in 5 years from now will be the combined average of the 5 closest people in your life.
In network marketing, when you truly committ the discipline to the system you can have a multiple streams of income coming in for life! Would you like to be JOB optional? What happens if you lost your Job?
Where are you in life right now? Would you like to get further ahead? Do you have everything you want out of life right now? If you were told that you have 10 years to live and $10 million dollars...what would you do differently?

If a simple guy like myself, can change....anyone can change. I have nothing special about me...I just know what I love to do and I pursue my passions....I choose to settle for the extrodinary, not the ordinary. If I can do it so can you....I hope if your reading this, you open your mind to the possibilities....maybe you think the same way as I do.
There is nothing wrong with creating a plan B, and I firmly believe that when you embrace this industry with the right mentorship and the right integrity you can accomplish some of your wildest dreams.
Leave your comments, and contact me if you would like to learn how to create residual wealth...I feel blessed and only want to be a blessing on your life.
