Webinars do you get on them? Do you make sure that you listen to the Corporate Webinar every week. Do you make sure your team does the same? Why you ask? For one reason, remember this is a business based on duplicability, and what better way to make sure you are saying and doing the right things, than to hear them from the Founders and Leaders themselves on a constant and regular basis. Another reason is everyone needs to keep connected! In a business where it is so easy to get secluded and feeling all alone, we must plug in every chance we get, (this is called Network Marketing for a reason,) and stay moving in forward action. Training is another major reason to make sure you are not missing these calls. Team calls provide specific information and are geared towards each team’s players and goals, if you are not attending these calls you are missing a big part of your team participation! So if you are not already attending these events here are a few suggestions to help make sure you get yourself moving forward, remember progress not perfection. After all aren’t we all trying to fail our way to the top?

1) Write down a weekly schedule of all calls you may want to attend.

2) Put them in your calendar

3) Set up remimders in your calendars with alarms.

4) Set up a follow up call with team members to discuss the calls, keeps everyone participating.

Remember this is one of the most basic and fundamental ways to start getting yourself moving in the right direction.

What do you do to keep plugged into you company? I would love to know…

Tony Robbins, he is someone that we have all heard about, a Motivational Speaker, Consultant to some of the World’s Greatest Leaders, changes peoples lives.  Well, tonight I really had to wonder, had Tony sold out? How could he go and do a reality show, come on, a reality show?  Well I should have known better than to question the execution of anything that was coming from Tony Robbins.  The show was phenomenal, not only was the audience allowed to watch the transformation of a couple in crisis, but we were allowed to follow the exact process used, with steps that can be applied in anyone’s life.  Please check out Tony’s Breakthrough Insider site.  We all can learn so much, and the more we can learn to be better ourselves, the more we can help others, and for me that is fundamental!!  So until next time, remember NEVER BLAST ALONE!!

Let me start with the example of losing weight and getting in shape, to really explain what I am talking about. Recently, I was talking with a friend of mine who said she really wanted to get into shape, and that she was going to join a gym. Now gyms are a great place, but not always for starting out. My question to my friend was do you have the time commitment it is going to take to go to the gym? Because, belonging to a gym, and actually having the time to get in your car, drive to the gym, change your cloths, work out, shower, dress, and drive home are two different things. Was she setting herself up to fail?

When you are starting out, and looking to set goals for yourself, you have to make sure that you are not putting up your own roadblocks along the way. My suggestion, instead of joining a gym, isn’t there something much easier for you to do, right around your house? For me, I live at the bottom of a great hiking area, for others, it could be a nice walking district, a running track close by, something that doesn’t take any effort to get to. Once you get started, if you think you need the gym, then by all means join, but remember, the easier it is to do, the more likely you are going to stick with it!

When having a similar conversation with another friend of mine I heard, “I’m going to start working out an hour a day, every morning.” This is just another way to set your self up to fail. An hour is a long time, start slowly. I suggest never plan to do anything that takes more than 30 minutes; after all, we can do anything, if it’s only half an hour!! If you are worried about not getting enough exercise, then do another 30 minutes at another time of the day. And as an added bonus, they say your body responds better by breaking up a work out this way.

Society as a whole is not very supportive of any one individual. Don’t we owe it to ourselves to support ourselves? Why not try and set up achievable goals. You will be amazed at how much better you feel about yourself when you say, “I said I was going to do it, and I did.” And suddenly things you never thought were possible are not only a reality but better! How do I know? You may be asking yourself, well I have been applying everything in this post for the past year and a half in many aspects of my life, including getting into shape, and here are my before and after pictures, see for yourself. And so until next time, remember, NEVER BLAST ALONE!!

This was me in June 2008, 1 month before I gave birth to my twin girls

This is me now!!

The Holidays are officially here. Have you already slowed down in what you are doing to drive your business? Have you been thinking to yourself, “it’s the end of the year”, “everyone slows down,”” what’s the big deal, I deserve a break too?” This is Network Marketing, that means networking, and what better time to do that then during the holidays. The holidays, a 3 week period of time when most people go out to more parties, visit and see more family, and generally socialize more than the whole rest of the year. So instead of slowing down over the next few weeks, here are some pointers as to how to work your business while enjoying all of these various events.

First of all, remember everyone is there to have fun, whether a party, a family get together, or a group of friends celebrating. If you are at a party, DON’T go up to someone, and start pitching your opportunity. Instead, ask them what their New Year’s Resolution is going to be, it is a great ice breaker, and will present you with some wonderful information about the person right away. Listen carefully to their responses. Peoples resolutions are usually problems they are trying to fix, listen to what they say carefully (if you can make notes after the conversation), you just may have the solution, once again, DON’T pitch the opportunity, share contact information, and follow up after the party.

Are you giving gifts this holiday season? Seeing the whole family? Why not give your product as gifts? Or perhaps your company’s branded merchandise? (Just make sure that your companies merchandise is quality, I can only speak for my own company’s lines which are top notch. Below is an example of our New Branded Sustainable Kor Bottles.) Not only are you introducing your product to someone new to try, but your gift is tax deductible too!

If you are working an internet business also, don’t forget to keep putting stuff out there on the net as well. The web doesn’t know that it’s the holiday’s, and with a lot of people slowing down, now is a great time to get your content out there and seen. Keep up the Blogging, the Social Networking, make sure your Tweets have value, interact, participate in groups, make sure to be more social online as well as off for the holidays.

Remember all of the work that you do now, while others are “slowing down” will be what pays off for you during the first few months of the New Year. We are the lucky ones, this time of the year is our time of the year. Have fun, Happy Holidays, Good Health, and a very Happy New Year!! And of course, remember NEVER BLAST ALONE!!
