Compassionate Marketing

Would you sponsor Snow White?

2011-08-15T12:21:00.000-05:00

When we pre-judge others we limit our expectations of them, and they will give us exactly what we expect of them so make sure that you impart your support and trust to your organization.

A friend of mine watches Snow White with her little girl every morning. It occurred to me what a wonderful role model Snow White really is. She took a motley band of misfits, (Grumpy, Sleepy, Dopey, Sleepy, Doc, Sneezy, and Happy) and gave them direction, encouragement and kindness. She took the time to get each and every one of them, learned their foibles AND their talents, and empowered each and every one of them! She created a successful TEAM that worked together to achieve their own individual goals AND a team goal!

Why would I sponsor Snow White? She is the quintessential Role Model of a Leader AND Compassionate Marketer! She is selfless, sees the best in people, and has high aspirations for them, even before they believe in themselves!

Snow White took the time to get to know each one of them and developed a special relationship with each of them. They each learned that they could trust Snow White, and count on her to be there for them. They grew into a successful band of men who functioned as a TEAM and could thus help others attain their goals and dreams. Their devotion to Snow White was unswirving and focused because she gave each of them a feeling of self worth and accomplishment. This unlikely team of seven KNEW that they could accomplish anything they wanted, if they worked together. Snow White taught them the effectiveness of teamwork!

~~~~What are you doing for your organization?

~~~~What expectations and tools are you delivering to your team to guide them and encourage them?

~~~~What are you doing to instill a sense of self worth and accomplishment for your team mates?

The month of August draws to a close and we are all looking forward to the rebirth of another month!

Take time to review your past activities and see what you need to do to insure a prosperous new month.

Is your business growing and fulfilling your goals?

Do you have your goals for the new month written down?

How will you reach out and encourage your organization in September to let them know that you are there for them ? Is your team reading? If you would like a complimentary Ebook to share with your team this month, please send an email to

AcresofDiamonds@CompassionateMarketing.com

I wish you a Prosperous and Joyful September!

The Real meaning of Labor Day

2010-09-05T10:15:00.008-05:00

We are celebrating Labor Day weekend and what better way than to acknowledge and celebrate the Legions of Entrepreneurs that helped to build our country.

Our Grandparents and their parents came from far off lands to make their fortunes AND build a future for their family. America WAS, AND STILL IS, The Land of Milk and Honey for those who Believe in themselves, Have a dream and are willing to Take Action!

They came as Artisans, Bakers, Carpenters, Craftsmen, Farmers, Peddlers, Seamstress, Tinkers, Tailors, Bankers, and unskilled laborers. They each had a desire, a hunger, and a BELIEF that this Country afforded them the opportunity to succeed. They TOOK ACTION, whether it was pushing a cart of old clothes on the East Side of New York, brewing pickles in barrels in a friends backyard garage, traveling “the hinterlands” or new cities selling their pots and pans or setting up a stall or store in one of the new and growing cities.

They each had A DREAM, TOOK ACTION and PERSEVERED until their dream was achieved!

Sears Catalog started with one mans dream and the knowledge that people were scattered all over this Country and would purchase his products through MAIL ORDER. Today, Sears in one of the best Entrepreneurial success stories ever, not to mention one of the most well known billion dollar companies in the world.

Book Peddlers became conglomerates like Brantanos, Barnes and Noble and the world famous New York Bookstore!

Pickle makers grew to be well known corporations like Vlasik, Batempte, Heinz and it was a Hotdog pushcart fellow that created Hebrew National a world reknown purveyor!

Levi & Strauss started selling denim pants (Jeans) back in the Conestoga Wagon days, traveling all over the then USA and the Wild West AND in the growing cities.

All Entrepeneurs……all with a dream……..all persevered……. All Took Action !

Look Back to see your future!

Here in 2010 we find ourselves living in tenuous economic times. Just today, The New York Times posted an article quoting the US Labor Department about the growth, or lack of growth in our beloved country also stating that the private sector added 67,000 jobs in August, with some of the strongest gains in health care, food service and temporary help. US chief economist Josh Shapiro states, “Labor markets are KIND OF treading water…”

Entrepreneurs with a dream and a passion understand that NOW is the time for them to help RECLAIM our country in these stressful economic times AND RECLAIM their OWN financial security!

Their vehicle of choice, and yours should be through Network Marketing. It is the number one choice of a growing number of traditional business men and women, unskilled and skilled folks, the educated and non-educated alike, tradesmen and women including super business entrepreneurs like Donald Trumph, Robert Kiowsaki, Warren Buffett, Dr. Charles King and more.

~~The REAL meaning of Labor Day should be to honor all those who came before us who helped to build our beloved country with their enthusiasm, spirit, dreams, vision, perseverance and action.

~~The REAL meaning of Labor Day CAN BE a turning point for you and your family if YOU realize that Network Marketing is the ONLY business platform today that will avail you the opportunity to build your future without investing a thousands and thousands of dollars in time, education or franchise fees.

~~The REAL meaning of Labor Day SHOULD BE a breath of fresh air for you and your family because it can not only reshape your financial future, but it will contribute to the salvation of the Capitalistic Spirit of our beloved USA and help save her from these failing economic times.

Now, more than ever, it is important for folks to be able to learn fundamental skills that will help them select a good solid company and have a place to go to help guide them on a generic basis.........

Do not hesitate. Make a decision to find a company that matches your personality and passions. MAKE SURE that the company meets criteria for a quality company. You can read more about Evaluation Guidelines at http://BudUrl.com/EvaluationGuidelines a direct link to an article on this blog or call me for a complimentary consultation.

Have a safe and festive Labor Day weekend and don’t forget to start Dreaming and believing that you CAN reclaim financial security for yourself, your family and our Beloved USA!

Who's Renting Space in YOUR Brain?

2010-02-25T16:40:00.008-06:00

".....As we get older we let others take over some of our Psycho-Emotional turf; we let the ghosties move in and cripple us emotionally!"

Who's Renting Space in YOUR Brain and How to Reclaim It! is dedicated to all those who have followed what they were TOLD TO DO, haunted and daunted by those little voices (THEIR ghosties) who pop up at the most inopportune times and sabatoge them, and to all those who, despite all their personal development, reading and listening to CD's, visits to shrinks and debilitating self esteem have never found the KEY to banishing their ghosties.

Who's Renting Space in YOUR Brain and How to Reclaim It! has been gathering rave reviews from CEO and Publisher George Madiou of TheNetworkMarketingMagazine.com, Industry Leaders like Xango Legend Sandi Cohen, and readers just like you!

Sue Rissel of Pennsylvania has said, "Just finished reading "Who's Renting Space in Your Brain and How to Reclaim it" by RS Mallory. She's quite the talent at getting to the root of the problem, and I'm sure this book will give you as much of an eye-opener as it did me. I have a lot of "ghosties" to let go of. There are bonuses, too! Definitely worth the time to read!!! Just had an "aha" moment regarding friendships.... bumped into this wall a few times (so I've been told) and with little energy to think or even care I realized a few things about some people. It's amazing what clearing the mind of 'ghosties' can do!

Read more testimonies and learn more about Who's Renting Space in YOUR Brain and How to Reclaim It! by visiting

http://reclaimyourbrainnow.com/

This is the first of a monthly series of Ebooks, conference call and webcasts and a host of resources to help you Banish YOUR ghosties for good!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

How do you Evaluate an MLM or Network Marketing Company?

2010-01-15T09:50:00.014-06:00

2010 will see more people than every looking for their Plan B or an alternative to their employment situation. In many parts of the USA there is unemployment up to 16.8%. Six figure income earners are now struggling to keep their families together with lesser jobs paying as little as $20K or even less! People from ALL walks of life are looking for an alternative path to either create new or REcreate a suitable and generous income. Network Marketing traditionally thrives during these economic downturns, and, to be sure, people are often duped into all kinds of ""creative"" opportunities. To add to the mix, myriad self proclaimed Internet Gurus entice the most intelligent people into scams or ventures that only benefit them! To be sure, a set of Guidelines is requisite to making an educated and informed decision, BEFORE you decide to jump into Network Marketing, MLM o r Direct Sales.

Here are the Guidelines and Evaluation Points I reviewed on the Thursday evening Generic Skills Training call for The Distributor Rights Associaton on January 14, 2010. Be sure to use them and your common sense, when researching a potential Network Marketing, MLM or Direct Sales company. Remember, treat your selection of a company seriously, with respect and as a partner for life. You will be spending lots of time and energy with the people in the company and on your particular team. Make sure it is a comfortable fit AND a reputable company that will be here 10 years from now so that your hard won income does not evaporate.

Guidelines and Evaluation Points:

~~~~ Be sure to consider and evaluate the Company Management and Experience. Although you are seeking a Business oriented company, it must be one whose Management knows what it takes to build a network of people or team, and one whose Integrity is exemplified in the Company Policies and Procedures or Terms and Conditions which reflects their INTENTION toward the Distributor. Policies and Procedures or Terms and Conditions are the CONTRACT between you and the company and outline THEIR REPSONSIBILITY TO YOU, and YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO THEM. Is this contract Distributor friendly or do they display Company Greed? If you were an Airline Pilot seeking a position with American Airlines, you would want to know YOUR obligations to them as well as THEIR obligations to you BEFORE you signed on with them, wouldn't you? Treat the potential contract with your future Networking Company very seriously and in the same way as any other Employment Contract! You will have to live with it once you agree to the terms.

~~~~Be sure to pay attention to the basics! Make sure that the company you are looking at has a company website that has a listing with contact information including physical address, email address, working telephone numbers, listing of all the Corporate Officers with their experience, Company history and philosophy, Policies & Procedures or Terms & Conditions and is Professionally made and not a home made site.

~~~~ Be sure you can be excited and passionate about the product or product line. Then be selective and find a company whose products not only fit YOUR criteria, but whose products are exemplary AND have some passion of their own! Seth Godin wrote a book called The Purple Cow. Roy H. Williams (The Wizard of Ads) refersto the ability of a product to stand out and get through “Boca’s Point” which is in the forefront of the brain. Boca’s Point does not allow the mundane or “the usual” to get past it to the rest of the brain. An example of this would be when you are driving down a country lane and spot herds of cows on the left and right; all black and white or brown and white. Soon they blur in your vision as they are “familiar” and all alike. Then your companion shouts, “Look at that” and you spot Babe the Big Blue Ox with pink and green polka dots all over his body. Babe COULD get through Boca’s Point because it STANDS OUT IN A CROWD. This is called “A Purple Cow”. Make sure your product line can be seen, tasted, and experienced, all with integrity as a Purple Cow in your Industry.

~~~~Be sure that the Price Point for the product or product line is one that is not only fair to the Company, but also to the End User, whether they be a customer or distributer on your team. Traditionally, MLM, Direct Sale and Network Marketing company's product pricing is usually a bit higher (so they can pay out commissions to you) but should be equally generous to both you the distributor, and the company. This is why I personally would NOT select a company that is publicly traded. They have to report and satisfy their Board of Directors and Shareholders, and care less about the pockets of their distributers. When your products are fairly priced and have exemplary quality, your ability to grow AND RETAIN a large customer and distributer (END USER) base becomes easier! Recurring Income is based on the ability to gather and RETAIN customers who purchase over and over and over again! When the pricing is fair AND the quality of the products is exemplary and does its job, the end user will continue to purchase products, Sustaining and Stablizing your Recurring Income!

~~~~Be sure The Compensation Plan is fair and treats you, the distributer and the company itself fairly and as equal partners. There are all types of compensation plans; binaries (where you build 2 teams), Matrices (Matrix either square or triangle & promising "spill over"), Unilevel (building one long line) and more including some very convoluted hybred plans! The plan you select MUST pay the AVERAGE, part time people, not just the 2% top distributers. It must also give you the ability to be rewarded and thrive on Retail Sales, if you wish. Again, Recurring income is built on CONTINUED use of product by both distributor and customers (end users). Thus, it is essential that your plan PAYS the AVERAGE person who is just starting out so they will continue to use the products and build their businesses for years to come. Large amounts of new distributers become END USERS and do not "build a business" with you. When your compensation plan rewards you based on VOLUME of product purchased, YOU WIN, because your Recurring Income checks will stabalize and grow as these satisfied End Users CONTINUE to purchase product and ocassionally refer others.

~~~~Select a Sponsor who shows that they care about you and YOUR goals and is willing to help YOU on your Journey to Success. This person is your Business Partner! Time and again, I have seen people who know nothing about Network Marketing sign up with the first person who calls them and paints them a rosie picture of riches in the next 30-60 days. You will be building a relationship with this person, so be sure that their knowledge, passion and integrity matches yours. To be sure, you will be IN BUSINESS FOR YOURSELF, but should NOT BE BY YOURSELF. The wonderful part of Network Marketing, if done properly, is the Team effort including Upline Leadership and Support. It is essential that Your Upline Team Members will lend support, develop and encourage team spirit & culture and supply leadership, perhaps including tools such as a Team Website, Continued Education, a Personal Development Program and an ACTION PLAN for all on an ongoing basis for ALL members regardless of their geographic location, limitations or initial abilities. Synergy, integrity and honesty must prevail within the team and all actions should benefit ALL, not just the few.

~~~~The economic downturn has created a natural Timing in the Industry for Network Marketing however there should be a “Window of Opportunity” with your chosen Company. If your company is one of 200 who sell blue and green marbles, with no distinction, the company does NOT offer a Window of Opportunity”. Excel Communications had to SUE the Baby Bells BEFORE they would release any customers. It would not be prudent to have joined Exel BEFORE they were actually able to supply services. In other words, good timing for a Distributor would have been AFTER the Law Suit was completed and customers were able to actually receive the service, NOT during the two years Excel was suing the Baby Bells. (This includes “”start up companies” who are untested and perhaps under financed). Look for products that distinguish themselves in the Global Market Place.

There are a plethora of "new" companies sprouting up every day. Be sure to employ these Guidelines and Evaluation Points BEFORE you choose your company. Approach your selection with the Intention of finding a company with whom you will be associated with for many years to come. Up until the 1970's it was the "norm" to seek out traditional employment with the Intention of being there 30-40 years or even a lifetime, collecting your Gold Watch and Retiring. These days collecting job titles on a CV and hopping from one company to the next seems like the norm for those in TRADITIONAL EMPLOYMENT, if you can find it! The Network Marketing Arena, attracting entrepeneurs and the traditionally minded alike, has the potential for us to go back to the security of an (extraordinary) income stream for life, if we choose wisely and then find the right sponsor/mentor, company and pay plan, learn the basic skills and Take Action.

If you would like to learn more about these Guidelines or would like assistance in finding a company, feel free to call or write, Guidelines@CompassionateMarketing.com

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Are you Wishing or Asking for what you Want?

2010-01-05T09:58:00.009-06:00

"" I wish I may I wish I might, my first wish I wish tonight.....""

This sweet little jingle in embedded in our psyche's from childhood.

Wishing.... Wishing...... is what is reinforced in our earliest training as children, yet those of us who are lifelong students of Success and The Law of Intention, Law of Attraction and Law of Reciprocity know that wishing is futile (sorry for the "Borg speak") and sets us up for failure.

So what energy deep within us can we tap into that WILL invite TheLaws of Intention, Attraction & Reciprocity to our door ?

The energy and power deep within the Action of ASKING.

Before we can LEARN how to ask for what we want, we must clearly define our desire(s).

The ACTION of asking sets our Intention and then invokes the Law of Attraction to our door.

BEFORE we ASK we must

~~KNOW what we want

~~Define exactly what it is we are striving for

~~Clearly and succinctly defined our goals

~~Write down our goals & speak them OUT LOUD several times a day, try them out, see how they feel, adjust them accordingly to make sure that they are EXACTLY what we want!

We all remember the old adage, "Be careful............. you just might get what you wish for". Literary license will allow me to paraphrase, ""Be careful what you ASK FOR, because WHEN you take action you will surely get it!""

Remember that we are creatures of The Universe and she has ears and is listening at all times. Those of us who understand that and learn the art of asking can tap into the Energy and Power of The Art of Asking on our personal Journey of Success.

Are you Asking for what you want? No? Why not? Don't forget, Put ACTION into your request and you will me amazed at what you will accomplish! You will invoke the Laws of Attraction, Intention and Reciprocity to your door!

Imperative Actions for A New Year

2009-12-31T09:00:00.008-06:00

2010 is almost here! That means

~~reflecting on this past year; what worked and what didn't work

~~looking forward and leaving the past in the past

~~practicing Gratitude for all that we accomplished and for that which we have the ability to accomplish in 2010.

~~Be sure to write down your Personal and Business goals for the New Year.

~~Make an appointment with your sponsor to discuss a personal plan of action for you in the new year.

~~ Take Action

This sends a message to the Universe using The Laws of Intention and Attraction and puts them on notice that you will be Taking Action and request their assistance.

For those of you less esoteric, the ACTION of writing down your goals makes a kinetic connection with your subconscious, allowing you to move forward on your Journey to Success in the coming New Year.

Compassionate Marketers know the importance of expressessing gratitude for what you already have, and what you will be working to achieve.

Blessings of Abundance, Prosperity Joy and Laughter to you all for a healthy 2010.

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

How to attain your goals? Write it down, write it down!

2009-12-28T14:32:00.000-06:00

Did you know that 95% of aspiring Network Marketers are not only new but part time marketers who seek to improve their lives; many times by just a few hundred dollars a week? A lucrative and effective compensation plan MUST PROVIDE for these part timers, thus creating an extraordinary place for Leaders (like you and I) who strive to not only live our dreams but to help others attain THEIR goals and dreams!

Being a Compassionate Marketer means that your contributions as a leader will be beneficial to all those whom you touch.

How can we learn to understand and motivate other networkers in our group?

Monday evening my personal business group discussed the importance of defining “Your 25 Reasons” and why it is important for you to WRITE THEM DOWN. As you may know, virtually ALL the "Captains of Industry" in our society to date have one thing in common; they ALL write down their goals. Doing so builds a STRONG kinetic bond between your heart and your brain and it also sends a message out to the Universe that you have INTENTION. The Universe always pays attention!

Your 25 reasons need to be STRONG enough to MOTIVATE you so that NOTHING stands in the way of your goals! Be sure that you KEEP this in your thoughts at all times.

Here is how it works:

1--Your goals should motivate you so strongly that you should be able to say, "If I don't get to (your goal, let's say the next level in your company) by (date) then I will give up........ (define what you will give up)

2--The thing you give up should be VERY important to you, like giving up your season's tickets to sport events (maybe The Yankees games) or selling your beloved 1967 Vintage Barracuda! The whole idea is that you would NEVER give those things up, so your motivation will KEEP you going until you reach your goal so you do NOT have to give them up! You are thus PUTTING VALUE to that which you want to attain and your goals suddenly become INTENSIFIED!

Example, Let's say I wanted to lose 30 lbs and could never do it before. Now I am on “the cookie diet” but don't really stick to it. If I promise that I will lose the weight OR I will have to give away my precious Sweet Pea (my beloved English Siamese pussy cat) then I KNOW that I will stick to the cookie diet and lose the weight. Can you see that?

Your assignment for this week, if you choose to accept it (Mission POSSIBLE) is to write (or re-write) your 25 Reasons for Being a (Your next in Level) in 2008.

This is NOT an easy assignment, my friend. Take a few days and noodle around what reasons will really motivate you enough to energize you to TAKE ACTION for the long term. The Slight Edge (By Jeff Olson) will get you there IF you are motivated and take action:-)

If you wish, you may submit YOUR 25 Reasons to me. BE SURE you TAKE ACTION by printing them out and placing them ALL over your home and office, review them several times a day, and SAY THEM OUT LOUD! my25reasons@CompassionateMarketing.com Please include your phone number, name and email address and I will contact you for a free consultation.

Questions? Please feel free to call or write. Thank you for being such an important part of Compassionate Marketing. Your contributions, comments and your friendship are a blessing to me!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to yourdoor.

November is one of the largest Retail Sales months of the year! Are you capitalizing on this pre- Holiday Season to grow your Business?

Jumpstarting your Network Marketing Business in September

2009-09-01T09:15:00.006-05:00

Even though ""The summer slowdown"" is a myth in Network Marketing, many people take advantage of summer to travel or spend time with family and friends. Whew! The kids are (almost) all back to school, and it's time to take a deep breath and regroup. It's time to jumpstart YOUR Network Marketing Business!

September is here and is a time to reactivate your prospecting efforts as well as contacting your leaders, customers and old prospects.

First things first!

1- Clear your workspace! Open up the door to your office (or workspace), dust, clean off yours desk, and organize your files.

2- Redo and reaffirm your short term and long term goals. Write them down and visit them daily.

3- Sit down with your family and brainstorm about the hours you will be working, and why this will value add to their lives. When you have the cooperation of your spouse and children and they are invested in your activities, you eliminate unwanted stress.

4- Set up & resume your Daily Personal Growth program, whether it be listening to CD's or reading a book; 15 minutes each morning and 15 minutes before you retire at night. Meditate or exercise at least 15 minutes a day to improve your focus.

5- Review the new contacts you made during the summer and include them in a prospect, business or customer list. Do NOT pre-judge anyone.

6- Revisit the "tools" that you are using to build your business; autosponders, email messages, other programs, phone systems (for better rates), etc.

7- Call your company or upline to find out about any new products and information that you may have missed. Learn about the new products and plug into trainings and plan to attend company events.

8-Contact your sponsor and let them know what your new goals are and enlist them in your efforts. If they are not available, go upline until you find someone willing to assist you. These days, Compassionate Marketers find themselves part of proactive teams with many different leaders available to anyone who might need assistance. Find out who is available on your team and contact them.

9- Find a workout buddy who WILL be available to you on a daily basis. Your Workout Buddy will motivate you and keep you on course. They can provide you with that essential "accountability factor" that many of us need to stay focused. You can set up friendly ""challenges"" or mini contests between you... a friendly race to the finish line (a particular goal) is always invigorating and invites focus and energy.

Remember that the economy is providing us with a plethora of potential business partners who are looking for a way to extend their income or define and work their "Plan B". Keep yourself open to visiting with new summer acquaintences AND set up a plan to REVISIT with old customers and prospects alike!

Ready, Set............jump right in and remember WHY you love what you do. Remind yourself of the advantages you can give your family, the lives you might change, and the gratitude we experience that is so inherent in being a successful network marketer!

The Keys to your Success

2009-08-18T10:24:00.000-05:00

Your dreams are your own. Nobody else has YOUR specific goals and dreams.

YOU hold the key to your own success in manifesting your dreams and goals.

How do you DO that? (DO is an action word)

1- ACKNOWLEDGE your goals and dreams

2- Allow them free reign in your heart, soul, brain, subconscious AND Conscious thoughts

3- Write down your goals and dreams and post them all over (your work area, living space, car etc)

4- DO 15-30 minutes of personal development EVERY DAY (tapes, cds, books, meditation, affirmations

5- Remember that your dreams belong to YOU and only you. Be Audacious, bold and daring and be prepared to step OUT of your comfort zone to move forward every day towards your dreams and goals.

6- BE single minded and FOCUSED on your dreams and goals; do not let any one dissuade you or tarnish your dream. COVET YOUR DREAMS and KNOW that they are already yours. It is your job to attract them to you.

Remember that it is the Journey that counts and once you attain your goals and dreams you will give birth to another and another. PAY ATTENTION to the little things that occur daily. THEY are the stuff that dreams are made of :-)

7- Practice The Slight Edge. Take baby steps, every single day.

Contact me for a free Slight Edge Chart and be sure and read The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson.

Remember, whatever you want to be you ALREADY ARE. Look inside yourself and BELIEVE. When you take action you invite the Universe to orchestrate things, people and events that will bring your dreams and goals to you. BE KIND TO YOURSELF and others; BE a Compassionate Marketer.

Practicing Abundance, Prosperity & Kindness EVERY DAY,

Conviction, Committment and Believing in yourself 1000%

2009-06-10T15:22:00.014-05:00

I recently read my friend Richard Brookes' article, The Light House in The Network Marketing Magazine and was struck by the simplicity and power of the message.

Are you committed, really committed to your endeavor? Read Richards' article and then take a personal measure of YOUR conviction (and commitment).

You know, we have to believe in what we are doing, and how we are doing it, so deeply that we are at total peace with our choices. Our success depends on, and is directly related to the reason people are "at home" or "not at home" in their chosen company. If you have a deep abiding CONVICTION and COMMITMENT, then your success will follow.

Your 1000% conviction and committment means that you are unwaivering..... NOTHING will steal your focus or get in your way of your goals.

The Laws of Intention, Attraction and Reciprocity are hardwired to YOU and activated by how you FEEL about your endeavor; how you feel about your decisions, your Passions, your "raison d etre (your motivation or your WHY). When you are deeply committed and focused, these 3 sister Laws Take Action on your behalf to aid you on your journey towards Success.

When you select a company to represent, make sure that YOUR passion(s) are reflected in their products, philosophy and business practices. Remaining true to yourself, your values and your Integrity is an imperative.

Make sure that, like Richards' Light House, you are implacable and can give your focus, attention and conviction to the journey you are embarking on. Remember, your ability to believe in yourself AND the company empowers you to stay the course and maintain the Journey towards your Success.

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Synchronicity vs Coincidence

2009-06-04T15:37:00.007-05:00

Did you know that there is NO such thing as coincidence?

Websters defines coincidence as "a striking occurrence of two or more events at one time apparently by mere chance".

In our study of of The Universal Laws of Intention, Attraction, and Reciprocity we know that there ARE NO such activities or meetings of coincidence. Rather, they are synchronistic..... they are circumstances (opportunities) that are given to us by The Universe. We are able to exercise our fee choice to either ACCEPT or discard these opportunities as we wish.

Because I work at home, I go to the local coffee house several times a week armed with my laptop and cell phone. Incredibly, there are more than a few "local denizen" who are also working at home who call the local coffee house "office away from home" just like me. We have become an informal local networking group, referring each other to those who drop in once in a great while, sharing information, knowledge and resources.

It is not coincidence that brought us all together. Our (personal) energies interacted synchronistically to create a strong bond between us. When you are "transmitting" your energy through The Universe, it is picked up by, and attracts other like minded people. Synchronicity is at work with her cousin, The Law of Attraction.

This day blessed me with an introduction to an interesting gentleman who came to the coffee house to wait for a client. We sat adjacent to each other and a conversation ensued. It is really easy to start a conversation if you want to. If you are observant and open to the energy around you, you will understand there is no such thing as coincidence!

This gentleman was working on his laptop and he was referring to his Daily Planner which he had placed on a shared table. I remarked on his use of such a seemingly "outdated" tool in this day of electronics and we discovered that he is a speaker/trainer (like me) and, teaches and helps people publish their books**. We discovered that we work in a similar arena and immediately discovered that we enjoy travelling, teaching and have a shared background. Since I am working on my first book, I recognised that The Universe was gifting me with a very special resource that I might tap into in the near future.

Coincidence or Synchronicity?

Those of us who walk in tune with The Universe understand the difference! Meeting this lovely fellow was a Gift from The Universe. If I had NOT started a conversation, the Opportunity to get to know someone with whom I might network with would be lost! The knowledge that he may impart to me would be lost. Synchronicity is always working, we just have to acknowledge her and Participate by Taking Action!

Are you letting synchronicity work for you?

Expanding your Perception

2009-05-18T08:36:00.014-05:00

Is the glass REALLY half full or is it really half empty?

I remember my Dad asking me this questions when I was a child. I thought it was a "magic" question and labored to come up with the correct response!

What about you?

This is really an age old philosophical question that was used to measure a child's deductive or inductive reasoning skills. It also measures a persons' PERCEPTION!

Deductive Reasoning allows us to grasp (and SEE) the WHOLE picture and then to understand and break down and pick out the bits and pieces that make it up. Those who can solve a Geometry theorem are good at Deductive Reasoning. Deductive Reasoning works backwards like a jigsaw puzzle or a Crossword puzzle. Both puzzles give you the big picture and ask you to figure out the details.

Inductive Reasoning allows us to have a bunch of details and be able to KNOW (and SEE) what the result will be if we construct them in a particular way. In other words, we are able to reason with some detailed facts given to us and then come up with a concept or principal. Inductive Reasoning works forwards.

Let's get back to that glass we are looking at. It is filled half-way with liquid. Is it half full.... or half empty? All reasoning aside, the answer depends on your Perception. MY perception is that the glass is 100% full; one half liquid and one half air!

Here's how I figured that:

My Inductive Reasoning tells me that there is a glass, there is liquid and there is air in the part of the glass that does NOT have any liquid, therefore the glass is 100% full. I added up all the details to come to my conclusion, using my Perception.

My Deductive Reasoning tells that I am looking at a glass which is filled with 1/2 liquid, but that the liquid has displaced something, and that something is air. So, if one part of the glass is now filled with liquid, the other part must be filled with the substance that was replaced by the water :-) Alas, the glass is 100% full!

Perception is a tricky thing, my friend. We are programmed to use it the way other people want us to think. Nurture your own perception and make sure that you are always using it with expectation, intuition and an open mind! Acknowledge your perception, hone your skill in using it and be sure that you learn to trust what you see. Learn and understand the differences between Inductive and Deductive Reasoning and incorporate BOTH skills in to your perception.

Any circumstance or situation in life creates the opportunity to use your perception to determine HOW you will take action towards that opportunity. Every situation is an opportunity IF we perceive is as one. So each time the Universe provides an opportunity, remember that you can CHOOSE to look on it positively, or negatively and choose to see YOUR GLASS as 100% full!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Mothers Day isn't just for Mothers

2009-05-10T11:07:00.005-05:00

Mother's Day is here. For many of us that means spending countless hours in the kitchen preparing for the family gathering. Others are preparing the long trek to a family reunion, and yet others are home alone, their children long gone or far away in different cities, states, even countries :-)

My gift to you is that we each spend several moments in reverie thinking back to those wonderful days when our children joined our family as a blessing. Gentlemen & Fathers, this exercize is for you too :-)

For many of us, the day also affords us the opportunity to celebrate the lives and journey of our ""surrogate children, grandchildren, mothers, aunts and special friends who have gifted us with their special love and affection!

Close your eyes and conjure up an image of your beautiful infant in your arms, feel the tender, soft as rose petals skin, and experience a whiff of that delicious "scent of "baby" that seems to naturally leave once our children started to walk :-) I have a mental image of my newborn sleeping on the stomach of my (then) husband, who had a look of wonder and joy on his face. It is one of the only memories I have where he was in repose, serene, and not playing "macho man". It is a delicous memory and one that I cherish!

Here is a secret we should all cherish.

Whatever your circumstance today, we, as Mothers (and Fathers) know that each and every memory of our children is embedded in our minds, body and soul, and nobody can take them from us. These memories LIVE in us, and all we need to do to bring them into our present is to spend a moment in reverie and conjure them up!

This Mother's Day, give YOURSELF the gift of love. Pour yourself a cuppa tea or coffee. Enjoy the aroma, contemplate and admire a lovely flower, listen to your favorite melody and take a few moments for yourself. In this spiritual repose, reach into yourself and your memory banks and treat yourself to luscious memories.

Remember your child's' first cooing and gurgles, words, steps, bicycle ride, disappointment, success, first love, graduation, date, marriage? Remember that Soccer Game? The Softball or Basekt Ball game? Life is about GIVING and we have journeyed on a path ripe with joy, laughter, sadness and love.

Happy Mother's Day! Celebrate the loving memories with that someone special in your life by getting in touch with them and letting them know that you are thinking about them and that you care about them :-)

To all my friends who are Mothers, and Fathers raising their children & nurturing them too, congratulations on a job well done. You have poured your love, values, ethics and knowledge into your children. You have opened your heart, and then opened the door knowing that each of your children must walk through it and continue on their own path, knowing that you have encouraged them with love and faith, that all you have instilled in them will serve to make them a stellar and compassionate being, just like you!

Happy Mothers Day to everyone, and especially to those who have cared enough to embrace me and wrap me in love throughout the journey of my life! I have truly been blessed. Thank you to my son Paul, who has given me years of memories that live on in my mind, heart and soul. Your twinkling eyes, sharp wit and all those "belly laughs" live in my minds eye and ears, and ocassionally sneak out to make me chuckle and realize what a blessing and gift raising a child really is.

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Does the Universe have Ears?

2009-05-09T12:53:00.018-05:00

Humans do,

animals do,

reptiles do,

fish do

even plants and trees have a mechanism to "hear"what is going on around them.

Does the Universe have Ears?

The answer is a resounding Y E S and depending on how "enlightened" or "open" you are will determine your belief & understanding of the answer.

I grew up in the 50's and 60's when we spoke, first in whispers, and then with stretching vocal chords, that we were living "in the Age of Aquarius". That is, that we were awakening, growing, becoming enlightened and KNEW that the Universe would respond to us if we were OPEN TO the idea of the Universe and BELIEVED in its power.

Oddly enough, believing in the Universe is not a "new age" idea. There have been civilizations that embraced the power of the Universe throughout the ages. You may have heard their names whispered throughout history as they were

Kings & Queens

Magicians and Wizards (Merlin)

Warriors

Witches

Heretics

and those "Odd" men and women who were a bit "off"

There has been a noticeable and calculable interest in the Universe and her powers since the turn of the Century, leaving the more pragmatic folks behind in favor of those who have been seekers of the truth (old hippies, boomers, & those who sought/seek the knowledge of the ages & the like).

By the way, we Baby Boomers of the 60's now realize, after decades of seeking knowledge, growth and empowerment, that the Age of Aquarius was NOT in our formative years, and has yet to come. We are living in the preamble of The Great Age of Aquarius and the energy is all around us. The secret is that you must be AWARE that there is a great power whose significance is that IT EMPOWERS YOU if you are open to it and CHOOSE TO EMBRACE IT and LEARN how to use it!

The Universe hears everything we put out there.

Since it does not judge right or wrong, positive or negative, it works to give you what you say or ask for thus we must learn the proper vocabulary to speak and THINK, as both are very powerful communication tools to access the Universe.

Be careful what you wish for, THINK and be careful of the words that you use.

The Universe is listening and cannot tell the difference between a joke, or a positive or negative thought! The Universe GIVES YOU what you ask for so make sure you know how to ask... so make sure that you are not putting out negative statements or thoughts.

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Social Media, Brains & Common Sense

2009-04-20T11:11:00.008-05:00

Spam comes in a can. The ingredients are the dregs of mysterious animal parts, presented as a one size fits all solution to hunger. Of course, we have "Spam Addicts" who love the taste of Spam. Just ask the thousands who show up each year at the Spamara in Austin Texas. They have drunk the Koolaide and think everyone should be eating Spam :-)

What does Spam have to do with Social Media, Brains & Common Sense?

I am slowly learning about Social Media and how to use it. You know, as a retired school teacher this electronic age and some of these things just boggle my mind. Take Twitter for instance.

I confess, I am a brand new Twitterphile. It took me a while to comprehend and understand what Twitter IS and DOES. So this is what I figured out:

1- Twitter is great for EVERYONE because we all think that we are brilliant and it gives us the opportunity to share (read, Insinuate) our brilliance with others, even if they don't ask for our opinion.

2- Twitter seems to be reaching out to everyone who has ADD, ADHD and all the other "labels" that we, in the teaching profession give to those we don't understand or can't "reach" or whose minds are so far superior that they race ahead and are the definition and a marvel at multi-tasking although they cannot concentrate on any one thing at a time :-)

3- Twitter IS great because it actually gives us access to those who we would not be able to get close to, pick up a phone and call, or even begin to think that we could reach in more traditional ways, whilst giving us the "feeling" that we are "in relationship" with them. Just today, Lance Armstrong advises us that he is (at that very moment) speaking with Michael J. Fox on the phone! So, maybe we are using Twitter to become........................Voyeurs!

1,2, & 3 are in jest and I am, of course poking fun, however reading between the lines you will see that the stream of conscious nature of Twitter allows us to pick up some great information, have access to wonderful people who wouldn't have access to and DOES avail us the opportunity to put ourselves out there.

What about Facebook, MySpace, Ning and all the other Social Media Sites?

Since I am a Compassionate Marketer, I think I prefer this type of media in that they allow us to develop mini relationships with people. It allows up to click on their profile and read about them, get to know them, and even see if we are kindred spirits. If you are a marketer, it is essential that you be able to ascertain what a person's needs and goals are. Only then might you figure out if you can help them.

A successful business person KNOWS that

1- caring about others

2- knowing their goals and dreams

3- learning about their lives

4- learn what their motivation is

is the essential ingredient in success.

I believe these types of Social Media sites give you the ability to do just that IF you use it correctly.

I was enjoying my friend Lisa's Facebook page this morning and noted a young man who wrote a lengthy note and suggesting that she "download his free Ebook" to help her with her future. Of course, this young man did not take the time to learn about her at all. If he had, he would have realized that this accomplished woman has an incredible career and a professional in the industry for many decades. It became apparent that he didn't take the time to find out anything about her and assumed that she would be interested in his "free Ebook" because HE puts value on it, and HIS value is to use this ebook as a tool to hook unsuspecting people and "get them in his deal".

Let's all sit back and realize that not everyone is a Spam Addict.

Let's all learn some basic common sense when we meet others on any of the Social Media sites.

Let's be sure we take the time to get to know someone BEFORE we start "spamming" them.

What interests me most about Twitter and all the Social Media sites AND the Internet at large is that whatever you put out there IS OUT THERE FOREVER. Most people do not realize that.

Use your common sense. Use your brains. Think before you post!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Patience, Perseverence & Belief

2009-04-13T10:32:00.004-05:00

This past weekend brought Passover AND Easter. The Universe presented us with a spiritual buffet. Last night I tuned in to one of my all time favorite films........Charlton Heston, Yul Brenner, Edward G Robinson..........can you guess? The 10 Commandments.

I remember when I was a little girl and saw this grand film in the "new" Technicolor on a GIANT screen. I remember drooling over a handsome Moses (Charlton Heston) and am exotic and mysterious Pharaoh (Yul Brenner). Edward G Robinson who played characters in many "Gee" movies about gangsters in the 30' s & 40's (and was the pride of my grandparents who always thought of him as "the Jewish boy who made good) of course was yet again, another "bad guy" Hebrew turning against his people AND his G-d.

If you've seen this film a gazillion times like me, I hope you saw it again last night! If you've never seen it, please do yourself a favor and rent the DVD. The Technicolor is better than anything we have today (in my humble opinion) and the history lesson coupled with the dashing leading men of the day make for a wonderful few hours of ........entertainment?

Hmmmmmm, which brings me to why this post is titled, Belief, Patience, Perseverance.

In order for us to attain our goals, we know we must write them down. Even BEFORE we do that, however, we must BELIEVE that we are "good enough" to reach for them, and then indeed, attain them. Moses displays this belief from the very start of the "Saga" in the movie. Don't forget, the retelling of this story is factual. Moses was left in the reeds on a River as an infant to be claimed by The mother of Pharaoh. He was raised to ascend to that throne until "fate" redirects Moses as he discovers that he is indeed a Hebrew. Moses then realizes that his kindness for and towards the "slaves of the day" (The Hebrews) was not just an accident of character. As history unfolds, Moses in embraced by G-d to lead the Hebrew people out of Egypt to freedom.

His evil brother conspires with the sitting Pharaoh and exiles Moses out of the "court" and into the slave camps of the Hebrews where Moses learns about his "birth" people. His BELIEF embodies him and he then perseveres to "know" his G-d. The reward is that G-d chooses Moses to embark on a path of leadership that brings us the 10 Commandments and a deeper faith to all.

Once The Hebrews successfully crossed through the Sea (parted by G-d) to escape Egypt, they wandered for FORTY (40) years before coming to The Promised Land. Moses wrapped himself in his BELIEF as he persevered. Patience was never lost, even as the people may have become misguided, Moses maintained his sense of purpose and belief through those forty years of trials and tribulations.

For those who don't know why The Hebrews wandered for 40 years, it was because G-d wanted to make sure that all those who originally left Egypt were dead. The Promised land was to be for those who were actually born in the travail and journey of those 40 years. It was THEY who embodied the belief, perseverance and patience, and "the knowing" that they would achieve their goals. Moses himself was not allowed to enter the new land. Joshua lead the people into the land.

What can we learn from all this? If you are a non believer there is still a valuable lesson in the history of the "story".

~~~~Moses embraced his belief and HELD on to it for FORTY YEARS

~~~~He persevered through obstacles, travails, food shortages, thirst, enemies and those who were naysayers not wanting him to succeed.

~~~~His faith, kindness, devotion and caring for others was embodied in his BELIEF in his Journey and its Reward.

Moses knew that he would not be able to enter "The Promised Land". Yet he continued his journey because it brought reward to others. HIS reward was in leading helping others :-)

Compassionate Marketers know that we must always think of others and help them define and reach toward their goals in order for us to reach ours. We must embrace our own belief in ourselves and our worthiness. We must take one step at a time and move forward day by day and have the patience and understanding that we WILL be moving forward. We must always, in the face of adversity (or those naysayers in our lives) persevere in order to attain our goals.

For a few hours last night I became that little girl again, watching Moses speak with G-d, battling the Egyptians, and leading my people out of Egypt.

For a few hours last night I sat in front of my 221 inch tv screen but magically my mind was transposing the images to that Jumbo tron screen of my youth.

For a few hours last night I felt myself BECOMING my beliefs, REGAINING my Faith and perseverance, and knowing that I must take one step at a time, each and every day to attain my goals.

This morning I am aglow with a RENEWED sense of faith (in my G-d, The Universe and myself)
and KNOW that I already am everything I want to be so I am putting one foot in front of the other, taking steps every day on my journey and KNOW that I will attain my goals.

What about you?

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

What are you Attracting and Why?

2009-03-07T11:37:00.009-06:00

I ran across a wonderful little tale that reminded me of how we direct The Law of Attraction in our own lives. The Law of Attraction exists as a gift or tool to help us in attaining our desires by either putting us in a place, situation or instance where what we need, who we need to meet, or who they know, to attain our goals & desires might be the catalyst for us to reach them.

It is up to each of us to define and know what our goals are. Remember, writing down our goals and visiting them often allows us to take ownership of them and invites The Law OfAttraction in to our lives.

This little tale (from the Kabbalah newsletter) exemplifies how low or small expectations rebuke The Law of Attraction into our Lives. The Universe means for us to be Abundant, Prosperous and Joyful.

****************
"It often amazes me how small we think. The universe is constantly presenting us with a smorgasbord of lasting fulfillment, yet we tend to settle for scraps. There is a story of a man who goes fishing. After he catches the fish, he measures it up against a ruler and if it's bigger than the ruler, he throw it back. By the end of the day he has thrown back quite a few, and a fellow fisherman asks him why. He explains, "The pot I use to cook the fish is only 12 inches wide. I have no use for the bigger fish."

Life wants to give us everything, but, when we're stuck with our small desires, it's like we are throwing it away.Today, rethink what it is you want out of life. Expand your desires. Imagine that you can do or have anything and allow yourself the courage to go for it."

********************

My friends, we must

1- define & set our goals

2- believe in ourselves

3- believe that we are Worthy

4- understand The Laws of The Universe (Intention, Attraction, Reciprocity)

5- TAKE ACTION

If you are stuck or need assistance in working towards your goal, email or call for an appointment. I would be gratified to assist you in your journey :-)

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Do Women Do it Better?

2008-12-12T22:44:00.005-06:00

Women don't have to PRACTICE, they DO! Okay gents, move over :-) Did you know................

that it was women in the Biblical Days that

1- taught values, ethics, morals and culture
2- kept the family together
3- developed AND Grew the relationships

Fast forward to 2008 and it is not surprising that women are fast taking over the Network Marketing Industry simply because they do not have to "work" at the above mentioned qualities and attributes.

Women are Natural Networkers.

I grew up in the 50's and 60's when women were still "homemakers" and did not work outside the home. Times changed gradually and women all over the Nation suddenly found themselves "without skills" to obtain traditional jobs. Wooohooooo, what a stroke of luck!

Women not only

1- taught values, ethics, morals and culture
2- kept the family together
3- developed AND Grew the relationships but they also were fabulous accountants, social directors, nutritionists, executive dispatchers and the list goes on.

Running a home and a family required (and STILL requires) a laundry list of skills that women developed, never realizing these skills were exceptionally marketable in "the business world".

Women are natural networkers! They have LISTENING skills and do so with their HEART as well as with their ears; they develop relationships with people based on the other persons needs, NOT their own. Women are used to GIVING, whether it be to a spouse, children, The PTA, etc. It is no wonder that our beloved industry is now replete with fabulous and successful women who have "come in to their own, REALIZE and TAKE OWNERSHIP of their skills, and reach out to others to nurture them.

How do you define your credentials?

1- Define and Draft a list of YOUR TALENTS and SPECIAL QUALITIES
2- Look at your home life, your experiences, as well as your "J.O.B."
3- Be willing to ACCEPT that you have natural talents
4- SHARE those talents with others
5- Repeat #1 often

Need affirmation of your skills and talents? Check with your Church/Synagogue associates and organizations, PTA, Community Groups, Social Groups, etc.

Write down all the things you do on a daily basis to keep your household running.

Repeat #1 often

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

What if You REALLY ARE What you THINK you are?

2008-11-11T10:24:00.005-06:00

The power is WITHIN you. Many of us are looking elsewhere for the "magic", lament that others "always have the luck" or feel that we "will never be able to achieve" what others have.

Simply put, our hearts desire is empowered and grows when we THINK and ENVISION what we want, in actually picture format. The magic? Believing that we WILL attain our desire, HOLDING ON to that picture in our heart AND brain and ALLOWING the Universe to help orchestrate the outcome. We must never forget that we are a Magnate that attracts what we get, so keeping focused, "right thinking" and consistently HOLDING ON to that picture creates positive energy.

To learn more about how YOU hold the power to create your own life, paint your own landscape, I will gift you TNT The Power Within You by Claude Bristol, with my love. What you will read in the pages of this book WILL change your life IF you have the desire to learn from them and ACT on them.

Are you a Network Marketing Elephant?

2008-09-29T10:29:00.008-05:00

Are you a Network Marketing Elephant?

Remember going to the circus as a little kid? Think back and you will remember seeing how the animal handlers keep the elephants at bay. They used conditioning to get the elephants to do (or not do) what they wanted them to do!

The elephant had a rope tied around its leg even as a little baby & then the rope was tied to a stake that was driven into the ground. The elephant could not move. Even as the elephant grew and matured, its two tons of muscle and force REMAINED tied down by a tiny rope and stake.

WHY? What's their secret?

The handlers trained the elephant from birth to stay put using the rope. That’s called Conditioned Consciousness. Over time, the beautiful beast becomes convinced it can't pull out the stake. And because it's convinced it can't, it can't!

We do the same thing.

We convince ourselves we cannot earn a million dollars a year, so we don't. Not only that, the actions we don't take preclude us from being in a position or circumstance to earn a million dollars a year or meet our goals.

We are convinced we will never meet the right prospects. Therefore, the actions we don't take preclude us from ever meeting or attracting the right prospects.

Or, we want to grow our team and better our relationships with our teammates. We have a good relationship but we want to take it to the next level. But we can't see (envision) that next level is right there waiting for us, and so we don't take the right steps to get to that next level.

We are not using visualization or belief! We are stuck because of the rope tied around our ankle. It is called….. self fulfilling prophesy.

Tug just a little and you will snap the rope, begin to visualize. EXPECT success. The Secret is to TAKE ACTION, my friends.

As you may know, Libra is the beginning of the New Year. The holiday of Rosh Hashanah is the re-creation of the world – our world. We are given a blank slate. Therefore, now is the ideal time to look at your conditioning and reprogram our thoughts that EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE.

Love, healing, well-being, prosperity, simple happiness, confidence, success, - what is it you want?

You ALREADY ARE everything you want to be; just take action and the Laws of Intention and Attraction will be there for you! If you work 99% on your consciousness, you'll notice that your 1% (physical circumstances) will change and grow. Your consciousness will invoke The Law of Intention and she enlist her sister, The Law of Attraction to help.

What is it you are convinced you can't achieve? You CAN achieve your hearts desire by CHANGING the way you think AND taking action immediately :-)

You will be on your way to an incredible year, and life!

Go for YOUR personal best :-) It takes perseverance and KNOWING that you will attain your goals and dreams! Remember, you ALREADY ARE everything you want to be; just take action and the Laws of Intention and Attraction will be there for you! Simply tug on that little rope and free yourself from your conditioning !

Network Marketing and YOUR Goals

2008-09-06T09:50:00.005-05:00

Remember this is YOUR journey; one that you should enjoy as you learn, grow and share... these tips will help you do just that.

Network Marketing can help us achieve our individual goals more than any other business paradigm. Once we have selected our vehicle (company) the important thing is to understand that we need to develop skills. What’s that?

In actuality, the optimum journey would be to learn and develop our skills FIRST and then learn how to evaluate and select an opportunity and company.So now that your passion has been ignited and you have your goals, what do you do?

1- Seek guidance from your sponsor or someone in your upline that is willing to give you a helping hand and put you on your journey towards success.

2- Understand and practice The Slight Edge (Jeff Olson). Do not be impatient and know that each baby step you take and performing those steps consistently and on a daily basis will be the most rewarding thing you can do.

3- Teaching others to do the same thing will enhance your ability to grow a fruitful and successful organization. This is Duplication at it's finest!

Remember that sponsor or upline that may be willing to help and guide you? Be sure that you find out WHAT systems they use and HOW to use them. Do not attempt to reinvent the wheel, my friend. It doesn’t matter whether or not you are new to network marketing or you have been in network marketing for 20 years. Each team has a system that they use. In most cases, the system will increase your ability to grow your business.

Here are a few tips:

1-Be prepared to WORK and decide how many hours you are willing to devote to your business.

2- Read The Slight Edge (Jeff Olson) and understand that building your business is a journey and reliant on your doing a few simple things over a long period of time, over and over again on a consistent basis (and teaching others to do the same thing)

3- Do not freeze. Remember, nobody knows what you DON’T know or what you might leave out in a presentation. Most people are NOT The Amazing Kreskin and cannot read your mind! Relax, learn on the job and enjoy!

4- Seek council and feedback from your sponsor, upline or mentor. Remember to invite constructive criticism in order to hone your skills.

5- Continue to attain your (written) goals of contacting/meeting/approaching people on a daily basis.

6- Be sure you have your written goals in a place that you can review them OFTEN.

Knowing that you are on a daily journey will reinforce your ability to stick to your plan and continue on a daily basis.

Remember this is YOUR journey; one that you should enjoy as you learn, grow and share!

Helping other people focus and teaching them how to grow is the real payoff in Network Marketing!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

How to attain your Personal Best

2008-08-19T09:21:00.008-05:00

Hello my friends,

"The starting point of all achievement is desire. Keep this constantly in mind. Weak desire brings weak results, just as a small amount of fire makes a small amount of heat." Napoleon Hill

Napoleon Hill finally published Think and Grow Rich in the 1930's. It took him TEN YEARS of interviewing people before he sat down to write his book!

He had a goal, wrote it down and then TOOK ACTION, 10 years of action!

Success usually does not take that long. So what do you do first?

1- Define your goal(s)

2- Write them down

3- Take Action Every Day

4- KNOW that you will attain your goal. BELEIVE in yourself

Do something daily that will move you forward. This action may not get you to your end goal, however, like Napoleon Hill, it will progressively move you forward, each and every day :-)

Napoleon Hill could not sit down and write a book in 1 day or even a week or a month.

He started by taking action, interviewing people on a consistent basis, honing his own interviewing skills as he talked with each person.

Remember the old adage from Mom? I bet it is rattling around your brain someplace! I can see myself at the Piano as a little girl hearing my Mom say it!

Ask Michael Phelps the Champion Olympian Swimmer....... he knows the adage too:

"Practice makes perfect".

To be perfect, one must practice. That requires action each and every day!

Here's a secret: you do NOT have to be perfect (unless you are Michael Phelps) to attain your goal as long as you believe in yourself and take (the correct) actions each and every day.

Go for the Gold! You can do it AND you deserve it!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Practicing Abundance, Prosperity & Kindness EVERY DAY,

Perception, Gratitude and Dancing in the Rain :-)

2008-08-05T13:16:00.006-05:00

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it’s about learning to dance in the rain.

Author Unknown

Wow! How many of us miss all the good stuff that COULD BE because we just don’t know how to appreciate and live in Gratitude?

Yesterday I woke up and on my way to the stairway I found my English Siamese Pussy Cat, Sweet Pea who had decided to stretch out and take a nap, right at the foot of the stairs. Sweet Pea is the same color as my carpet and I didn’t see her! Ooops! I suddenly felt her fur on the bottom of my foot as a quickly withdrew it and broke my toe in the misstep! Ouch

Living in Gratitude means finding the good or positive things in an event or situation.

If I had stepped on Sweet Pea she could have been critically hurt. Splat! I could have lost My balance and tumbled down the stairwell and broken an arm, leg or worse!

Yesterday was a wonderful day! I did not squish the cat, nor did I break a leg! I am sporting a rainbow toe that is the most beautiful color of raspberry magenta I’ve seen in years. It is a great conversation piece……….. especially for me, a Network Marketer.

Now I am not suggesting that you go and break a toe to start conversations J And, beware of kitties lazing underfoot. The lesson is, however, that I am ever grateful for NOT hurting myself and for my colorful toe which introduced me to several wonderful People yesterday!

Living in Gratitude means perceiving or seeing things differently!

13 years ago I met an old friend, her daughter and husband in New Orleans. I had just moved to Texas from New Jersey, where my friends were still living and it was a reunion of sorts. Two wonderful things happened on that trip!

I wore a lovely summer straw hat on the plane and it seems, other people thought so too as it became a conversation piece allowing me to meet a few great folks, several of whom are STILL my friends. But, when my friends met me at the airport, my dear friend exclaimed, “Oh, it’s just like you to wear a hat and draw attention to yourself”. Negative energy and perception go hand and hand, my friends.

Be aware, be awake and always listen to the Universe!

The second lesson appeared as we were on Bourbon Street going through the Art Galleries and Shops. Suddenly the skies opened up and there was a DELUGE of rain. It rained in torrents for about 15 minutes greeting the already sultry, steamy atmosphere with more of the same.

Make yummy Lemonade, or is this a lesson on Perception?

My friend, bless her, was “upset” about the rain and exclaimed that it was ruining HER day. Me? I put my straw hat on her husband’s head for safe keeping, ripped off my sandals, lifted my skirts and ran out into the gutters splashing into the torrent of water rushing down the street.

A funny thing happened in that that moment. People started emerging out of the shops. After watching me for a minute or two, some of them actually joined me in a “gutter splash”, giggling and laughing to THEIR hearts content! LITERALLY, we were dancing in the rain! I even lifted my head and opened my mouth to TASTE the rain!

When was the last time you tasted the rain?

My friends, “Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; It's about learning to dance in the rain.” **

Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass; it’s about what you do DURING the
Storm that counts!

Remember, you ALREADY ARE everything you want to be, just Take Action and invoke the Law of Intention and her sister, The Law of Attraction will bring you where you want to be!

Go ahead, DANCE in the rain and check this short video out to put a smile on your face!

Thanks to my friend Donna Jean from Thoughts for the Day for sending this poignant reminder to us all!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Practicing Abundance, Prosperity & Kindness EVERY DAY,

July 4th and YOUR Independence

2008-07-01T09:17:00.006-05:00

The 4th of July was known as Independence Day!

Happy July 1st my friends!

The events in our great history leading up to The Fourth of July insured that we all might pursue our freedom, greatness and success each as we choose.

Mac Anderson who writes Simple Truths and brings us lovely inspiring videos writes today about personal greatness and success.

"Dr. Martin Luther King said, “Everyone has the power of greatness. Not for fame but greatness. Because greatness is determined by service.”

Success is a very personal thing, but I think most people would agree that true success is about being fulfilled in LIFE. And, I feel there would be no greater feeling to look back toward the end of your life with a “smile in yourheart” knowing that you made a positive difference in the lives of others."

Mac inspired a book which talks about the importance of (hand) writing notes to people because, in this electronic age of email and unlimited phone service, we forget the Joy and Gratitude that a hand written note brings to the recipient. It does not matter what you write; the psycho-emotional message is loud and clear and is that you CARED enough about the person to take a moment to express your gratitude to them, in written form.

Your penned note will be the exception in their mailbox, and one that will not only bring a smile to the recipient, it will give them a feeling of "being thought of" and gratitude that is becoming so illusive these days!

Think back to when you were a kid and Grandma sent you a Birthday Card IN THE MAIL. It mattered note what she wrote or what the card said! What mattered was that she thought enough to send it to you and remembered yourbirthday! Give your customers the gift of Caring. It will come back to you in ways that you could never imagine!

Compassionate Marketing teaches relationship and also teaches that we GIVE a little bit of ourselves when we and scribe notes to our customers and new affiliates. Mac and I are on the same page; what about you?

Be sure to continue to send out thank you notes to your customers. Keep your personal file on them and send birthday, anniversary and no occasion notes too. Your customers will enjoy the notes and KNOW that you appreciate THEM! This is a simple formula for retention, which as we know, pays handsomely. Along the way you will develop many warm & rewarding relationships.

During this week leading up to our "Independence Day", please remember the events in our great history leading up to The Fourth of July insured that we all might pursue our freedom, greatness and success each as we choose. What do you choose?

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Tales from Town Lake: Strange Bedfellows & a Tornado

2008-05-20T10:45:00.009-05:00

Taking to Town Lake running trail after the Austin Tornado was gratifying :-) All the 100 year old trees managed to Survive the winds, softball size hail and torrents of rain. Most relented and gave up their weak branches, receiving a "mental cleanse" from Mother Nature.

A Mental Cleanse? Yes! The weak branches were sucking life out of the trees, hanging on for dear life and causing the tree trunk and healthy branches to suffer and wan. Such it is with those of us who cling on to the dead wood in our mind; that which zaps our energies, causes us self doubt and stands in the way of our Success, Joys and Laughter.

A destructive tornado is not necessary for you to clean up your mind. There are some very specific steps you can take that will be positive;

1- Agree with yourself that you need to do some "personal work" to eliminate those ghosties and dead wood

2- Create a Goal to take steps to RESOLVE and LET GO those issues

What to do First?

1- Look at yourself in the mirror and wrap your arms around yourself and have a big hug.

Make sure you tell yourself that "you love you". This is not easy to do and you may have to start with just "liking yourself"!

2- Embark on a DAILY personal growth program (reading, writing, Cd's, tapes, DVDs) 15 minutes IN THE MORNING and then 30-45 minutes before you go to bed.

~~~Starting your day with positive action creates the footprint of your day.

~~~Ending your day with positive thoughts sets your mind to thinking and working through POSITIVE things.

3- Do not Judge yourself. Be KIND to yourself. Experience Joy, laughter and gratitude each and every day. Create a "Blessing Box" and put little notes in it daily. At the end of the day open it up and read your Blessings for the day.

What goes in your blessing box? Here's what is in mine for today so far;

~~~Thank you for raising the water in Town Lake so that the fishes have ample room to swim. Their beauty and frolicking is amazing and joyful!

~~~Thank you for my ability to complete 5.5k run today

~~~Thank you for the opportunity to behold the ducks who survived the tornado. ( White Duck lost her mate and a Mallard Duck adopted her. Since ducks mate for life, it was quite a beautiful thing to see and experience.

Relationships are amazing! Strange Bedfellows CAN create beautiful and lasting bonds!

~~~I am gratified and thankful to be able to offer $160 in free product to New Affiliates this week. (Please contact me for more information)

4. Set your goals and take action daily. Use The Slight Edge and understand that it will work for you IF you do not quite. Take baby steps toward your goals, each and every day.

5. Remember that only you control the thoughts in your mind. You can Vanquish the negative thoughts if you are aware of them and remember that you are in control of who visits your mind. It's valuable real estate. Take charge of who you let in!

6. Practice Abundance, Prosperity and Kindness towards YOURSELF, each and every day!

7. Remember, you ALREADY ARE who you think you are; just take action to bring it to you!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Practicing Abundance, Prosperity & Kindness EVERY DAY,

Compassionate Marketing Lessons from the Running Trail

2008-04-28T16:26:00.005-05:00

I started Running again last week! It's been 4 years since I last ran my daily 5 Kilometers twice a day. I stopped running after 5 years because I got "dizzy" on that last 99 degree day and almost didn't make it home. When I run, my body temperature goes up about 15 degrees! It was SCARY and I couldn't bring myself to get back to one of the things I loved best because of that fear!

Know what I mean?

For me, running clears my head, allows me to hear myself think and allows me to work out and focus on my plan of action for the day. It allows me to focus on my daily, weekly, monthly and long term goals. NOT running has taken its toll on the way my days shake out :-(

So, back to beautiful Town Lake in Downtown Austin Texas (The Colorado River runs right through downtown) where one can embrace nature, the flowers and fauna and clean out the cobwebs in your mind. Some bike the trail, some walk and some are running. ALL are experiencing their own "daily mental cleanse" no matter which activity they do.

What about you?

What are YOU doing to clean out your brain and keep planning and DOING on a daily basis?

A funny thing happened today on the trail. Actually, 3 things, all related.

First I saw a BEAUTIFUL Doberman Pinscher puppy, only about 12 weeks old. He had just had his ears "clipped" (ouch!) and probably shouldn't have been there. He was cowering in between his owners' legs while the bikes whizzed by, the people ran past and the walkers meandered on their way. This puppy was SCARED of all of it. The noises, the smells, the din! There was just much too much going on for this little fella. His name was Adler. I wanted desperately to go over to him and get some licks and pet him but as I quietly inched my way up to him, stopping and cooing his name every foot or so, he got more and more upset. His "owner", a young lady who had never had pets before (and was certainly NOT a Mother) did not understand that Adler was scared, or why. She kept on pulling him on.

I am an animal lover, and although I share my living space with Sweet Pea an English Siamese Cat, this beautiful, large pawed, two toned reddish brown Dobie baby was calling to me. Alas, I couldn't get near him!

~~What did he make of all the confusion?

~~What did he make of the person who he was supposed to trust and rely on for support, love and caregiving?

~~What did he think of himself?

Adler has not been empowered by his "owner" nor has he been embraced or given the option to learn the skills that will make him a strong, empowered, secure pet/animal/sentient being.

What about you?

The second thing that happened on the trail today was when I was sprinting a section of the path and suddenly found myself in a fit of giggles so hard I had to stop. Coming towards me was a runner with her dog on a lead. THIS dog was, get ready............part dachsund and part wire haired terrior. Looooooooooong and standing about 4 inches from the ground he had curly white hair like a terrior with spots of brown and black. His tail was long and his ears were held in a way that didn't allow them to flop as he ran with his human.

THIS animal was a king amongst kings! He was REGAL in his trot AND the way he carried his head. He was secure in who he was and was enjoying the moment. He KNEW he was perfect and exuded that to all those who looked (and giggled) as they gazed on him.

What about you?

The third thing that I experienced today was, on this trail teaming with animals and their humans trotting, running, sprinting, walking and biking.........an older gent MEANDERING down the running trail at a snails' pace with his cane. I had stopped a few yards behind him to catch me breath and ponder the water, the birds and marvel at the clarity that overwhelmed me. Slowly, I approached this old fellow. He methodically put one foot in front of the other and then moved his cane. He then stopped to admire a bird, flower, or the flow of the Colorado River. It's been storming here the last few days and the river is high and pregnant with life. SO WAS THIS Older fellow. I stopped along side him and said "howdy" ( the customary hello in Austin) and he smiled, slowing down even further. I asked him if he was enjoying his walk and he beamed with pride, self assurance, perseverence and the knowledge that HE WAS DOING JUST WHAT HE INTENDED on doing for the day! We chatted briefly, I hailed goodbye and was off...... but will never forget the three lessons I learned today.

They are all related.

You ARE what you THINK you are.

It is all about your SELF IMAGE and

what you THINK about yourself.

Adler the Grand Doberman Pinscher puppy wil never be secure or loving. He is a sad, cowering little puppy with no support from his human owner.

My little Dauchsie/Terrier mix IS a king among kings; grand, secure, eloquent in his movement and the way he carried himself, poised and sure of himself.

My elderly Gent eclipsed them all in lessons today. He accomplished what he set out to do today.

All three ARE what they think they are!

What about you?

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

What can we learn from Passover?

2008-04-19T13:50:00.004-05:00

Tonight is the beginning of Passover celebrating the liberation of the Jewish People from Egypt. The Jewish people were enslaved and ironically, the manpower and brains behind the everlasting pyramids and monuments left behind by their captores, The Egyptians.

Who are your captores? Are you allowing yourselves to be enslaved?

When Moses won the right for the Jewish people to leave Egypt, only about 25% of the Jewish people CHOSE to go with him. What mindset pervaded those who stayed behind? Familiarity, apathy and a lack of personal desire and will.

What mindset for those who CHOSE to leave? Vision, promise and the desire for a better life!

The Jewish people wandered the desert for 40 years. Their existance and very life required peserverence, goal setting, vision and a BELIEF system that would ensure their success.

Are you stuck in your own Egypt?

Write down your goals, desires and vision and BEGIN the journey. I promise, you will NOT wander the desert for 40 years. By the way, if we could transport back to the time when Joshua and Moses found themselves at the doorstep of their "Land of Milk and Honey", they would tell you that their 40 year journey WAS WORTH IT!

For my Jewish friends and dear Readers,

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Finding Your Inner Truth

2008-04-12T10:24:00.007-05:00

Where do we find our inner truth?

The last several weeks find me cultivating and growing a new friendship. Each conversation reveals a little more about my friend, AND myself. You see, as we "tell stories" about ourselves, our lives, our families, we are imprinting what WE BELIEVE to be true on to others, and the Universe.

We have studying Perception, and know that perhaps, what we THOUGHT we saw, felt, tasted, experienced, may not have been exact or even true! We each bring our perceptions to our present and past, so it is important to keep that in mind.

Find the truth FOR yourself IN yourself. Helen Mirin put it best, "Find the Truth OF yourself".

Finding the truth FOR yourself requires that you

1- have the Intention of being KIND to yourself

2- know that you are Worthy and Valuable

3- not be judgemental of yourself

4- be able to embrace yourself

5- be willing to celebrate WHO you are

Our individual identities are NOT a reflection of what others think we are. The chatter and the smog in our brain, emotions and psyche usually cloud our ability to recapture and REMEMBER exactly who we are.

Several exercises that will allow you to RECLAIM the ability to to that are:

1- remember when you were a small child, without preconceptions or prejudice. Remember the DELIGHT, the NEWNESS of an experience or thing, the simple pleausures like LAUGHTER and JOY. Now take a mental journey to a place you CREATE in your minds' eye and allow yourself to FEEL your emotions without judgement.

2- Realize that it is only you that controls your thoughts. We all have choices. Do not let ANYONE rent space in your brain. It is precious real estate my friend! Create your own "perfect day" or "perfect moment". Feel, smell, see, all the beauty and warm feelings that accompany your perfect moment or day. Allow yourself to be EMBRACED by the feelings and emotions.

3- KNOW and understand that your perfect day is a tool that you might use to BLOCK OUT any negative voice that creeps in to your brain. It's free, it's powerful, it's UNIQUE and it is you!

Finding the truth FOR yourself by looking INTO yourself and you will, as Helen Mirin put it best, "Find the Truth OF yourself" AND, as Shakespeak so eloquently and simply stated, "To Your Own Self Be True!"

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Before you can BE successful, you must know where it is you want to go, what steps you will have to take to get there and what is standing in your way.

Where You Want to Go

Setting a goal sounds easy, but it is not. In order for your goal to become attainable you must define it with great clarity and detail.

1- Write down you basic concept and then keep reworking it until it is EXACTLY what you want to attain.

2- Use your original notes and then write down your Goal IN DETAIL.

3- Describe, using all of your six senses what your life will be like and look like, when you attain your goal. What will it smell, FEEL, taste, look, like? What sounds will you hear? What does your Intuition (your Sixth Sense) TELL you, MAKE YOU FEEL like?

4- Speak your Goal into existence on a daily basis by creating affirmations and statements that describe your life as if you have already attained your goal (s). Repetition and emotion are the magic elixir that will initiate The Laws of Intention and Attraction to your doorstep!

5- Hold Faith that the Universe will arrange people, places, and situations to happen that will help you achieve your goal. BE ALERT and willing to take advantage of these situations when they occur. There are NO coincidences in life; situations are either opportunities (for those that ACT on them), or opportunities lost.

The Steps you will have to take to get there

1- Make a commitment to yourself
2- Learn the Skills that will be needed
3- Find and USE the TOOLS to help you
4- Take ACTION on a daily basis
5- Don’t quit; be there two years from now. Rome was not built in a day :-)

Practice The Slight Edge theory which states that you must take baby steps each day to get where you want to go.

Thomas Edison found 978 ways NOT to construct a Light Bulb, but the 979th way was THE RIGHT to do it! If Mr. Edison quit before he got to the 979th way, Civilization would be “living in the dark” without electric light bulbs! He stated with great delight and pride that he had found 978 ways NOT to make a lightbulb, and by the way, many of those 978 ways NOT to make a lightbulb produced many other great inventions!

What is standing in your way?

1- Do not let anyone Rent Space in Your Brain! It’s valuable territory! We all have those “little voices” in our mind that tell us we cannot do this or that. Perhaps it’s your Auntie or your Dad. YOU can do whatever you set your mind to accomplish; the voices only have control over you IF you let them control you so

2- Clear your brain and BELIEVE in yourself. Free yourself from self doubt by reclaiming your mind; it’s valuable territory and YOU and you alone control it!

3- Start a Daily Personal Growth program. Read a good book, listen to CD’s, watch a DVD that will keep you motivated, keep you moving forward and believing in yourself. Read at least 15-30 minutes in the morning and then again before you go to bed each night. Remember, your mind works on the LAST thing you feed it at night, so be sure to give it something enriching to work on (instead of watching the news on television)

4- Write down affirmations and review them (with emotion) on a daily basis to keep yourself moving forward and motivated.

5- Learn to BELIEVE in yourself and your abilities. If you have learned the proper skills, have clear, decisive goals and learn to TRUST in yourself then you will invoke the Laws of Intention and Attraction and they will be your constant companions on your Journey towards Success.

6- Remember that once you attain your Goal that you must create a NEW goal and begin once again! There is nothing better in life than to KNOW that we each have the ability create and achieve. We must always remember that it is the JOURNEY that is important and we must covet and enjoy each new path that we embark on!

7- Always be sure to Believe in yourself and practice “THE KNOW”. The Know is simply your ability, deep down inside you to realize that you are worthy and deserving and that by taking the correct steps, invoking The Laws of Intention and Attraction you WILL attain your goals. Belief is the KEY ingredient in your success!

Giving = Gratitude = Receiving= Success

2008-03-12T21:53:00.005-05:00

Compassionate Marketers come in all sizes and colors, and are born out of...............other Compassionate Marketers. As we strive to reach out to others, teach then and help them on their journey to success, we are truly RECEIVING the best gift of all! The Gift of Giving makes us richer than we might ever imagine!

Giving = Gratitude = Receiving= Success

We can learn about Giving from the story of The Red Marble:

"I was at the corner grocery store buying some early potatoes. I noticed a small boy, delicate of bone and feature, ragged but clean, hungrily apprising a basket of freshly picked green peas. I paid for my potatoes, but was also drawn to the display of fresh green peas. I am a pushover for creamed peas and new potatoes. Pondering the peas, I couldn't help overhearing the conversation between Mr. Miller (the store owner) and the ragged boy next to me.

'Hello Barry, how are you today?' 'H'lo, Mr. Miller. Fine, thank ya. Jus' admirin' them peas. They sure look good..' 'They are good, Barry. How's your Ma?' 'Fine. Gittin' stronger alla' time.' 'Good. Anything I can help you with?' 'No, Sir. Jus' admirin 'them peas.'

'Would you like take some home?' asked Mr. Miller.
'No, Sir. Got nuthin' to pay for 'em with.'
'Well, what have you to trade me for some of those peas?'
'All I got's my prize marble here.' '

Is that right? Let me see it, said Miller. 'Here 'tis. She's a dandy.' 'I can see that. Hmmmmm, only thing is this one is blue and I sort of go for red. Do you have a red one like this at home?' the store owner asked. 'Not zackley but almost.' 'Tell you what.

Take this sack of peas home with you and next trip this way let me look at that red marble', Mr. Miller told the boy.

'Sure will. Thanks Mr. Miller.' Mrs. Miller, who had been standing nearby, came over to help me. With a smile said, 'There are two other boys like him in our community, all three are in very poor circumstances. Jim just loves to bargain with them for peas, apples, tomatoes, or whatever. When they come back with their red marbles, and they always do, he decides he doesn't like red after all and he sends them home with a bag of produce for a green marble or an orange one, when they come on their next trip to the store.'

I left the store smiling to myself, impressed with this man. A short time later I moved to Colorado , but I never forgot the story of this man, the boys, and their bartering for marbles.
Several years went by, each more rapid than the previous one. Just recently I had occasion to visit some old friends in that Idaho community and while I was there learned that Mr. Miller had died. They were having his visitation that evening and knowing my friends wanted to go, I agreed to accompany them.

Upon arrival at the mortuary we fell into line to meet the relatives of the deceased and to offer whatever words of comfort we could. Ahead of us in line were three young men. One was in an army uniform and the other two wore nice haircuts, dark suits and white shirts...all very professional looking.

They approached Mrs. Miller, standing composed and smiling by her husband's casket.. Each of the young men hugged her, kissed her on the cheek, spoke briefly with her and moved on to the casket. Her misty light blue eyes followed them as, one by one, each young man stopped briefly and placed his own warm hand over the cold pale hand in the casket.

Each left the mortuary awkwardly, wiping his eyes. Our turn came to meet Mrs. Miller. I told her who I was and reminded her of the story from those many years ago and what she had told me about her husband's bartering for marbles. With her eyes glistening, she took my hand and led me to the casket. 'Those three young men who just left were the boys I told you about. They just told me how they appreciated the things Jim 'traded' them. Now, at last, when Jim could not change his mind about color or size....they came to pay their debt.'

'We've never had a great deal of the wealth of this world, 'she confided,' but right now, Jim would consider himself the richest man in Idaho ' With loving gentleness she lifted the lifeless fingers of her deceased husband. Resting underneath were three exquisitely shined red marbles. The Moral : We will not be remembered by our words, but by our kind deeds. Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath. Today I wish you a day of ordinary miracles ~ A fresh pot of coffee you didn't make yourself. An unexpected phone call from an old friend. Green stoplights on your way to work. The fastest line at the grocery store. A good sing-along song on the radio. Your keys found right where you left them. Send this to the people you'll never forget. I just Did... IT'S NOT WHAT YOU GATHER, BUT WHAT YOU SCATTER THAT TELLS WHAT KIND OF LIFE YOU HAVE LIVED!

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

Leap Year Gifts!

2008-02-29T13:12:00.007-06:00

Save this message. It will only come to you every 4 years :-)

Although I was born in November (1948), I am a "Leap Year Baby" in that I was born in a Leap Year! Maybe that is why I never seemed to have enough time to accomplish all the things I want to do.

What about you?

When we slow down and take stock of WHO we are, WHAT we want to accomplish and HOW we plan on doing that, we can then put a plan into action.

The steps to making a plan are easy:

1- Write it down

2- Use a "help" tool, such as The Slight Edge Charts to measure your daily activity

3. Start and maintain your personal development by reading or listening to cd's on a daily basis.

4. Do a personal "review" weekly and REVISE or ADJUST your activities

5. Find a work out buddy or mentor and connect with them often

6. Make sure that your Plan includes "personal time" to enjoy your family,
friends, and make time for your Spiritual life too!

7. Laugh every day.

8. Give without expectation of receiving anything in return

9. Be aware of your environment, surroundings and the music of nature

10. Practice gratitude

Happy Leap Year 2008! We have an extra day to reach out to others and help them realize that they might live their dreams! Make the most of your extra day and know that you are touching the lives of others in a positive way! The Gift of Giving on Leap Year Day is a special blessing :-)

Perception, Opportunity and Dennis The Menace

2008-02-23T10:58:00.005-06:00

I ran across a TERRIFIC quote today. Many of you will think back to the TV series and reminisce about this person, and the interesting thing to me is the TAG or LABEL that we put on him.

"People wait for opportunity to come along...yet it is there every morning."~ Dennis the Menace

Wow, you may remember the series was about a little boy who was ALWAYS getting in to things. Let's twist our perception around for a minute. NOW we see that the premise IS that Dennis believed that opportunity was there, EVERY DAY and all he had to do is................you guessed it, TAKE ACTION!

Think about the other characters, Mr. & Mrs. Wilson the neighbors and even The Mitchells, his parents. The original comic strip set Dennis in the early 50's I think, when I was growing up. In those days, Mothers wore aprons and wouldn't think of working (the were proud HOUSEWIVES) and the elderly retirees, The Wilsons were not forward thinking people. Mr. Wilson put years in to 1 job, retired and then just wanted to sit in his rocking chair and rock away the rest of his life.

Now think about the flavor and opportunity that Dennis gave to the Wilsons! Hmmm, even Mrs. Wilson became Dennis' champion, somehow seeing and appreciating that Dennis was bringing Mr. Wilson back to a meaningful life rather than twiddling his life away on a Rocker :-) Dennis was keeping Mr. Wilson active and engaged in life!

Opportunity comes in various shapes, sizes and colors my friend. They are the stuff of life, IF we take ACTION on them.

How lucky and blessed we are, finding people and resources that help us become better people and become MORE, for ourselves and our families.

Think Dennis Mitchell and see the world as he does. See every day as he does, and your life and business will flourish. Don't forget to SEE the Opportunity and then TAKE ACTION!

""""""Oh Mr. Wilssssssssssssssooon""""""!!!!!!!!!!! --

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

How to Outshine other Marketers

2008-02-19T14:43:00.006-06:00

How does a Compassionate Marketer outshine other marketers?

What does it take?

We must learn how to LISTEN with our hearts, not just our ears!

1--Take the time to get to know your prospects

2--Find out what their challenges are, what they need, what their goals are

3-- Supply THE way or solution for them to achieve their desire

When we learn how to LISTEN with our hearts and not just our ears we set ourselves apart from the herd. LISTENING with our hearts is the number one way to Shine ABOVE the rest!
Another way to digest this important Compassionate Marketing essential is revealed in this well stated article from my daily Kabbalah TuneUp letter:

"What we hear depends largely on how we listen. When we listen with our desire tuned into the frequency of sharing, we can find delight and wisdom in any sound. As my father and teacher Rav Berg writes,

"…this is why it is possible for a wise man to listen to the words of a fool and hear wisdom while another man, who may possess a genius IQ but who is motivated only by desire to receive for the self alone [ego] may sit for years at the feet of an intellectual or spiritual master and not understand a single word." -- Kabbalah Method, Rav Berg

Pay attention to where your head is at today. When your wife is telling you about her stressful day or your client is complaining about a misplaced order or your child is asking for the tenth time why the sky is blue, notice where your desire is. Do you have the person's best interests in mind - or is your mind elsewhere? "

**********************

Helping Others achieve THEIR goals and dreams will get you where you want to be! Success leaves a trail. There is nothing more gratifying than to help someone

1- regain their health
2- achieve financial success
3- reach a personal goal

AND, there is nothing more rewarding. The Universe pays us in "like kind".

Listen with your Heart today and you will have a prosperous and gratifying day. More importantly, you will have practiced The Gift of Giving-- Giving someone your time, heart and solution.

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

How to Get What you Want

2007-12-13T14:08:00.000-06:00

The power is WITHIN you.

Many of us are looking elsewhere for the "magic", lament that others "always have the luck" or feel that we "will never be able to achieve" what others have. Simply put, our hearts desire is empowered and grows when we THINK and ENVISION what we want, in actually picture format.

The magic?

Believing that we WILL attain our desire, HOLDING ON to that picture in our heart AND brain and ALLOWING the Universe to help orchestrate the outcome. We must never forget that we are a Magnate that attracts what we get, so keeping focus, "right thinking" and consistently HOLDING ON to that picture creates positive energy.

To learn more about how YOU hold the power to create your own life, paint your own landscape, I am gifting you TNT The Power With You by Claude Bristol, with my love.

What you will read in the pages of this book WILL change your life IF you have the desire to learn from them and ACT on them.

To claim your Book please send an email to TNT@CompassionateMarketing.com Be sure and include your name, phone number and email address.

I wish you a lifetime of whatever it is that you PICTURE for yourself :-)

May your day be a treasure bringing Increase and Plenty to your door.

On Letting Go (How to vanquish the Ghosties)

2007-10-27T12:02:00.000-05:00

Ahhhhhh, "letting go" has many names :-)

'Tis the Ghosties we carry in our mind that usually do us in, freeze our ability to move forward, ACT or DO, thus rendering the power of the Universe prostrate.

The ONLY thing that stops the power of The Universe working for us is our own thoughts. They act as a steel wall that repel The Universe or allow her to work on our behalf.
Being able to thwart our negative thoughts is a huge undertaking. We ALL hear "little voices" telling us,

We can't

We are not worthy

We are not pretty

Who would listen to us

We are not smart enough

and the like.

When we cultivate and grow the ability to extinguish or repel those little voices we can then plug in to The Universe and all that she has to offer.

How to do that?

One exercise I use in my coaching is to teach people to

first admit and face their ghosties (or voices) simply by telling themselves that they indeed are there. No secret or magic here, this is VERY straightforward :-)

Second, we find a way to repel those voices and the very BEST way to do that is to construct several "Perfect Moments" or "Perfect Days" in your minds' eye.

What is a "Perfect Day or Moment"?

That which NOTHING can interrupt when you are thinking about it because a perfect moment or day will

1- be so intense that your mind will evoke EMOTION

2- be so intense that your mind will evoke SENSATION

3- be so intense that your mind will evoke STRENGTH

4- be so intense that your mind will be FOCUSED on your Perfect Moment/Day

Here is an example of one of MY perfect Moments. It is when I gave birth to my son. I remember The Doctor putting him on my belly whilst he was STILL attached to me! He had a perfectly round head with orange hair. I can hear the Nurse exclaiming, "Oh, a Pumpkin!" I remember thinking, "of course he has orange hair", wondering why she was so incredulous! Then my baby lifted his head, looked straight at me with eyes wide open, grinned and gurgled and then put his head down. He smelled like..........it was a smell I could never name, but......

I can SMELL him RIGHT NOW (because I am telling you about it)

I can, at this very moment, FEEL what I was feeling then.

I am, at this very moment overwhelmed with the Joy and Love I felt at that moment

I am at this very moment, INVINCIBLE; Goddess of Motherhood, Nature and protector of my child which is EXACTLY the way I was feeling at that very moment 30 years ago.

At this very moment, NOTHING, NO VOICES can get through my thoughts.

Constructing your Perfect Moments and Perfect Days is a tool that one should develop so that they can invoke it as a POWER whenever self doubt or one of the voices starts murmuring in your head. They negative thoughts/voices will soon be vanquished and they will subside.

When we take control of our own thoughts, we become invincible and become one with the Universe allowing her to bring us our favors.

Take some time today and WRITE DOWN your Perfect Moments or a Perfect Day!

PRACTICE bringing them out, wear them, FEEL them, Taste and Smell them, and know that YOU are for that moment in time, right now, INVINCIBLE!

This or something better

2007-10-10T21:33:00.000-05:00

Do we know how to ASK?

Do we know how to RECEIVE?

Do we know how to GIVE?

Do we know how to trust our INSTINCTS?

Are we flexible?

Are we able to discern what we receive as something we SHOULD have instead of what we want?

“We, as human beings, (seem to) know best when it comes to fulfilling our goals and desires. The Light force of the Creator (The Universe) knows best when it comes to fulfilling our needs and what is truly best for us. Today, look at your goals and detach yourself from the outcome. Know that while this is what you want, it may not be what you need. And with that consciousness, you can achieve what you want in a way that goes far beyond any possible expectations.” The Daily Kabbalah

Knowing what we want and knowing HOW to achieve our goals and desires is not the same thing. When we take action we come closer to our goals and desires by signaling the Universe that we are open to receiving. The Universe is there to GIVE us what we ask for. It is important that we KNOW this and BELIEVE this so that we get in to THE HABIT of ASKING for the right things for us.

The quote raises an interesting lesson. Sometimes we THINK we know what we want, work and strive for that goal by TAKING ACTION (ASKING) and we get something else; something better :-) It may not be apparent at the moment that we receive the gift, however once we ACCEPT the gift and use it to Help other people Live their Dreams we begin to see that the gift IS actually the “something better”.

Robert Frost , American Poet wrote an American classic, The Road Not Taken. Belief in our own instincts and belief in the Universe brings us to a crossroads many times over on our personal journey. Robert Frost discovered the secret in the last stanza :-) The lesson? TAKE ACTION! Be open to Receive! Be flexible! TRUST YOUR INSTINCT!

The Road Not Taken (Click for audio)

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Bear = Husky

Husky = Bear

Diamond = Success

You already ARE what you want to be. You just need to take action and believe!

If you think you are a Diamond, you will take steps to achieve your Diamondship.

You will begin to ACT like a Diamond, each and every day, step by step.

If you think you are a Diamond, those AROUND you will accept that which you ARE.

What can you learn from Atlas Shrugged?

2007-09-28T11:10:00.000-05:00

I am REreading Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand. You may have read it in your lifetime; this is my 6th or 7th REread over mine. I highly suggest you make this your NEXT book. Since I've read it so many times I have a mental picture, a literal "picture" running in my conscious with expectations of what I will read next as I turn each page. Life, "coming home", or at least what "coming home" SHOULD BE, what I remember and what I am reading anew is NOT the same.

What is the difference?

Perception.

Wisdom.

Personal Growth.

You see life happens and our lives are shaded by our own personal experiences.

Those of us who are deliberate are on a path of Conscious Personal Developement. I was going to use the word "fortunate" but that's just the thing; we who are goal oriented, passionate about our lives, our families, our successes are NOT fortunate, we are Deliberate Creators embarking on a step by step journey that BECOMES (and IS) our life! Our Perception, as we grow become shaded with all the experiences that we embrace along our journey. Our experiences and perceptions of those experiences will never change WHO we are if we are TRUE to our own beliefs, values and mores.

I invite you to meet Dagny, Francisco, Hank, John Galt :-) and the other characters that are simple NOT characters............they are US. They are what we should be and we, as Compassionate Marketers, are them. Stellar, focused, ethical people who are, underneath it all, Compassionate Marketing cousins. Their concern, caring & power springs from a motivation that is for their fellow humans who are like minded and will never accept anything less than a common set of beliefs, values and mores. They are deliberate creators who aresorting through the chafe and attracting like minded people to build a strong enduring world (team). They are the gathering of like minds who perpetuate old fashioned, stable and secure values that will build them a world that will flourish and grow.

What about you?

If you've not ever read Atlas Shrugged I invite you to do so. If you HAVE read it then I invite you to REread it now :-) I know that you will celebrate the triumphof human spirit, the pain and self awareness of personal growth and the exhilaration of embracing your own power.

The many Faces of Perception

2007-09-26T10:44:00.000-05:00

You are who you THINK you are :-) Really?

My Step Dad recently had a mini stroke and had the big artery “roto rootered” because of a 90% blockage.

We have been talking every day since then. I know him since I was 14 years old and he is a very large part of my life even though we have not been close in the past 20 Years or so. My Mom recently passed away and so I have been “repairing the relationship” with my Step Dad. I won’t bore you with family details, but I suddenly realized that there is a Life Lesson in what is happening NOW and it can and SHOULD BE applied to all of us as Compassionate Marketers :-)

PERCEPTION IS EVERYTHING

Families being what they are, it has been MY perception that my Step Dad really didn’t care about me thus did not pay attention to anything about me.

Yesterday we were talking on the phone and I mentioned that I had recently been awarded a Top Builder’s Award from my company.

This is what he said to me; “You know RS, I always knew you were a terrific “sales” person.” But LISTEN to what he said next…. “I remember when you were 18 and had come for dinner. You were selling Colliers Encyclopedias back then. “(I ran a team of people who sold these great books door to door!)

He continued,

“We were almost ready to sit down for dinner and you asked if we could wait about 15 – 30 minutes or so because you had been chatting with Mr. Jimmie the Superintendent of our building and he wanted to know more about the Set of Encyclopedias. You went downstairs to speak with Mr. Jimmie and came back up for Dinner in 17 minutes and had sold the set to Mr. Jimmie and his family! You were so very excited RS. I remember because I congratulated you on your sale and YOU said that it was so great that Mr. Jimmie’s children would have the opportunity to learn from these great books because it would give them a better start in school and they would get better grades and have better opportunities!” He continued, “I was impressed that you were more excited about the future of Mr. Jimmie’s children than making the sale. I knew you had a great future ahead of you and whatever you did would involve helping others.”

WOW! My Step Dad, all these (4) DECADES later (yeah, I am that old, lol) remembers AND respects me for my talents, even now.

Perception IS everything and I have been operating under the perception that my Step Dad

1- did not consider me part of the family
2- care about or take notice of my accomplishments
3- did not feel that my accomplishments were worthy or valuable

A friend has recently suggested that when someone has a stroke that different parts of the brain become ACTIVATED and memories come flooding in. My NEW perception however, is that I have a Step Dad who never knew how to express his feelings and even though he may have cared about me all these years, he had never expressed those feelings. (He waited 40 years until our conversation the other day to tell me how proud of me he was/is)

ALTERING OUR PERCEPTION

1- We do not have control over OTHER peoples feelings or Actions, but we sure DO have control over our own perceptions, feelings and actions.

2- What things have happened in your life that are stopping you from believing in yourself and taking action on things that you want and dream about?

3- What people in your life may think you are special but don’t know how to express themselves?

4- What are you DOING to grow yourself (personal development) and understand that it is YOUR PERCEPTION of the world around you and YOUR PERCEPTION of an encounter with someone as a Compassionate Marketer that really matters.

If you care about others and have the desire to Help people Live their Dreams they will FEEL your sincerity and be comfortable and want to be around you. For whatever reasons, it took my Step Dad 40 years to reach out to me, and it took the same 40 years for me to take a step back and change MY perception by paying attention, being caring and listening with my heart!

You see you ALREADY ARE everything you want to be. You just have to take action and believe!

When does the Relationship Begin?

2007-09-17T14:52:00.001-05:00

Are you a Professional Network Marketer?

Are you in a Service Industry?

Are you a Waitress?

Are you a Physician?

Are you a Milkman? (oops, I’m showing my age)

Are you a Plumber or Electrician?

Are you a Stockbroker?

Are you a Teacher?

It really does not matter WHAT profession or vocation you area in, what matters is how Successful you are. These days Success is usually defined as “having allot of money” however the REAL definition should be how many people you help to better their own lives. This can only happen when you are a Compassionate Marketer and know that the REAL secret to your personal success is in “Helping people Live their Dreams”, giving them a solution to a challenge, taking a genuine interest in them and helping to make their lives better J

Hmmmm, how does one DO that? By consciously having the DESIRE to take an interest in the person and then take ACTION to build a relationship with them. Building a relationship gives you insight into the persons’ needs, requirements, desires, dreams and goals. Once you can define THEIR needs you can better serve them.

The underlying question is then “When does the Relationship Begin?”

If you are a Waitress the relationship building begins with the first, “Hello may I help you?” Ask any Waitress who has a following; customers who will only sit at HER tables when they come to that particular restaurant. WHY? Because she has taken an interest in them, knows their favorite foods, is courteous, warm and INTERESTED in them J She always wears a smile and carries a big heart.

If you are a Physician the relationship building begins with the first, “Hello, what is bothering you today and how may I help you?” Ask any Physician who has built a huge practice with many generations of families coming to him. This Physician has taken the time to get to know each and every patient, their family members and takes an ACTIVE interest in their well-being. He/she is courteous, warm and INTERESTED in them. He wears a big smile and is never rushed.

If you are a Teacher the relationship building begins with the first “Hello, my name is Miss Smith, what’s your name?” Ask any teacher and she will tell you that taking an interest in each child, getting to KNOW them, their family histories, their talents, likes and dislikes is the essential factor that helps in establishing and building relationship with each child. This person always wears a big smile and is eager to sovle any challenge or problem that a child may have.

If you are a Professional Network Marketer the relationship building begins with the first “Hello, my name is Miss Smith” (on the phone or in person) a huge smile, the firm shake of a hand and showing a genuine interest in the prospect rather than “getting them in the deal. “ Taking the time to get to know a persons’ needs, their family’s dreams and goals and their circumstance sends a signal that you VALUE the person you are speaking with rather than looking at them like they are a tasty $$ Dollar sign to be added to your bank account.

Each of these professions has an opportunity to establish RELATIONSHIP at the very first encounter. What happens next is up to YOU.

1- Take an interest in the person (prospect/customer/client/distributor)

2- Put them FIRST and take your time getting to know them

3- Never rush through an encounter or meeting and allow proper time

4- Establish (in your own mind) if your “opportunity” is a good match with your prospect

5- If not, then network with someone else and REFER your prospect to another person. Life has a funny way of coming full circle and you never know what may happen as a result of a sincere referral.

6- Remember your prospect/customer/client/distributors and send Life Cycle greeting cards or a short note to let them know that they MATTER to you.

7- Smile, be sincere and express gratitude for all that you attract in to YOUR life and others will FEEL the gratitude and want to be part of your life :-)

The Secret to Success is not amassing large amounts of money, rather, it is being able to look back and be grateful for myriad opportunities to Help people Live their Dreams, help them solve their problems and share their journey and teach them along the way so that they may teach others.

Goal Setting; Does Life get in the Way?

2007-09-04T09:42:00.001-05:00

Does Life get in the Way?

We all know that we must set a Goal for ourselves, whether it be for our Home based business or even our personal lives. There are lots of articles on Goal Setting; how to, what to say, and how to stay focused. Lots of people Are making money selling you articles or “programs” so that you can “Stick to” Your goals.

The truth is that goal setting and KEEPING your goal activities is very simple IF you understand what might derail you :-)

Here are a few reasons that you might put your goals aside:

1- Your Vision is not clear
2- You do not believe you are worthy
3- “Life” gets in the way
4- You do not persevere
5- It’s easier to quit than to take one step at a time towards your goal

Your Vision

What is your personal vision? Is it physical, spiritual, business, personal?

Whatever YOUR vision is you will know it because you will TASTE IT, SMELL IT And FEEL IT just as if it is already yours!

1- Write a VISION STATEMENT and post it on your VISION BOARD (some people call it a DREAM BOARD). Be sure your written Statement is clear with ALL the details of your vision. If you want to build a home for instance, make sure all the details are included in your statement; size of lot, location, the view from each room, colors of rooms, dimensions, exposure etc.

2- Be sure and include your activities as if you are already living in the home; be very specific.

3- Be sure to write your Vision Statement in the NOW (present tense)

On Being Worthy/Self Esteem

Working on our self-esteem is on ongoing process. Most of us have some kind of “Gotcha’s” living in our heads. May be we hear our Aunt or a parent telling us that we are “not able” or will “never be able” to do be successful. Consider that we most ALWAYS live up to those voices; it is called Self-Fulfilling Prophecy.

1- Start your own Personal Growth, it’s easy! Read or listen to tapes for at least 30 minutes daily. Here are some great titles to get you started:

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
TNT the Power Within You by Claude Bristol ****
7 Habits of Successful People by Stephen Covey
Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles

We can use Self Fulfilling Prophecy to turn our lives in to a Positive stream of energy rather than derailing us and keeping us from attaining our goals. Each day that you read and absorb these details and concepts and PUT THEM IN TO PRACTICE you are becoming a stronger and more successful person J

Does Life get in the Way?

Make yourself your own Number 1 priority. Go ahead, it’s okay. Did you know that most of the baby boomers were taught that it was selfish of them to ask for something for themselves or even make themselves a priority? Not True!! In fact, JUST THE REVERSE IS TRUE. Putting yourself first, ASKING for what you want is just the thing that will INITIATE the energy of the Universe and help you move towards your goals.

Make YOURSELF and your GOALS a priority and then TAKE ACTION; move forward and do not lose sight of what you want or where you are going.

Perseverence & The Easy way Out!

Remember, your goals are YOURS and you are able to achieve anything you desire as long as you believe you are worthy and able. Working on yourself is an ongoing, lifetime process. Attaining your goals usually doesn’t take a lifetime. The trick is NOT TO QUIT and keep moving forward towards your goal. If you DO this, you NEVER lose :-)

I recently spoke at a Leadership Summit and told the audience, “Whatever you think you want to be YOU ALREADY ARE; you simply need to take the Actions to bring it in to your reality. Whatever you want to attain you need only to take the Actions to bring it in to Your reality for it is already here waiting for you”

This is YOUR Life! Don’t let it get in the way; make it whatever you want it to be!

Why Multi tasking & Multi streaming don't Work

2007-08-19T13:11:00.000-05:00

Why Multi tasking & Multi streaming don't Work

I recently enrolled a new Affiliate from the UK & for mis-spelled her name in my Compassionate Marketing NEWSLETTER. This gal is an amazing; an accomplished business woman who is create and eager to build her business recurring income through the company that Compassionate Marketing is associated with. She is a webmaster and has her own thriving business in The UK AND she is fast tracked to be Compassionate Marketing's next UK Leader.

My error was due to that nasty "multi-tasking bug" that sometimes hits us all, and decidedly I have realized that this "incident would be a valuable lesson for us all :-)

I recently watched a documentary about multi-tasking, which of course is akin to multi-streaming in our beloved industry. Many aspiring Network Marketers think that MORE is better. We even see people who join legions of companies at the same time, never accomplishing anything but perhaps maxing out several credit cards with a constant stream of outgo.

The documentary revealed, under an MRI on the brain, that

1- people who multi tasked were LESS apt to absorb, assimilate or achieve excellence in EITHER of their tasks.

2- Our brain can certainly HANDLE multi tasking, however optimum performance and success requires our FULL attention.

3- Today's "techno society" encourages multi tasking/streaming, however the end results are sub par.

Think about driving your car and talking on your cell phone. How much do you miss around you and how are you impeding your reactive skills should they be required?

Think about talking with a new prospect whilst checking your email or typing up a proposal. Hmmmm, how much detail is missing from the document, how many times must you go back and RE read the email and

more importantly, how does your prospect FEEL on the other end of the phone?

We encourage people to always SMILE when they are on the phone because it will be FELT on the other end of the phone.

In the same manner, each and every one of our Prospects AND Affiliates deserves our FULL ATTENTION when we are speaking/training/visiting with them.

Compassionate Marketers know that the secret to Success and creating Long Term Recurring income is by caring about others. That means LISTENING and taking the time to get to know them, their goals and their dreams.

I could write a book about each of my personally sponsored affiliates, and particularly this new lovely gal who is a charming and smart young Entrepreneur who IS a Compassionate Marketer at heart!

Perhaps our new tag line should read:

Compassionate Marketing,
NO multi tasking allowed because you deserve our FULL attention :-)

Have an awesome week my friends. Please feel free to contact me for any assistance you may require. I promise to give you my FULL attention!

The Secret to Believing in Yourself

2007-08-07T08:42:00.000-05:00

At a recent Atlanta Leadership Summit I spoke about belief. You know, it's really simple!

"Whatever you want to be you ALREADY ARE."

It's already there, right inside of you. Sometimes we get in our own way and inhibit that which we want the most :-)

There is no magic recipe, what is needed most is that you have faith in yourself and Take Action. That's the secret. Taking Action is the catalyst for "what you already are" to grow and bloom.

Get out of your own way! Give up the ghosties. Stop letting other people rent space in your brain telling you what you can and cannot do, what you an and cannot be. You already ARE---- and as my friend Yoda said, There is no try, there is DO or NO do."

THAT is the secret---- Take Action and BE what you arleady are!

Here is another way to describe your belief in yourself. It comes from a newsletter on Kabbalah.

"Anxiety is internal. It feels real but it's not. Many of us are our own worst enemy because of our unkind belief systems about who we think we are - and are not.

We don't accept ourselves, both the Light and the dark. Somehow we should be better, should be more like someone else, should be further ahead.

To quote The Deer Hunter: "This is this, this ain't something else, THIS IS THIS!'

You have a deep, spiritual soul that has the capacity for unconditional love. The first and most important love is self love, everything flows downstream from there.Today, give yourself the gift of unconditional love."

Remember, "Whatever you want to be you ALREADY ARE."

How to Turn your (Success) Dreams in to Reality

2007-08-02T11:37:00.001-05:00

"Success comes to those who BELIEVE in the beauty of their dreams."
(Eleanor Roosevelt)

Network Marketing is a profession (un) like any other.
It requires a specific set of skills, determination, perseverance
and the ability to dream. More importantly it requires you to
BELIEVE in the beauty of your dreams. Doing so turns your
dreams in to REALITY, one step at a time.

Network Marketing is a journey, NOT unlike the journey of your life. We have a choice to live EACH DAY as if there is no other (there isn't).

Allow your yesterdays to die and keep the truth of your dreams (vision) in front of you. TODAY is the only day that you should celebrate and LIVE to it's fullest extent :-)

BELIEVE in the beauty of your dreams. Doing so turns your dreams in to REALITY, one step at a time.

Network Marketing is Self Development, not unlike the journey of your life. Celebrate YOU each day by reading a good self development book 30 minutes a day. You deserve it.

Gone with the Wind is NOT a good self development book (unless you are Scarlett O'Hara and finally, at the END of your life, lament all the days past that you could have been growing)

Danielle Steele and Joan Collins' books are NOT self development books.They are reverie that KEEP YOU in a place out of time, LOSING TODAY and your opportunity to GROW.

Allow your yesterdays to die and keep the truth of your dreams (vision)in front of you. TODAY is the only day that you should celebrate and LIVE to it's fullest extent :-)

What to read?

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill

Acres of Diamonds by Dr. Russell Conwell

As a Man Thinketh by James Allen

TNT the Power Withing You by Claude Bristol

Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D Wattles

Big Al Tells All by Tom "Big Al" Schreiter

These Classics will help you build a strong foundation for your
daily growth as you keep the truth of your dreams (vision) in front of you.

BE a Compassionate Marketer:

Watch your thoughts; they become words.

Watch your words; They become actions.

Watch your actions; they become habits.

Watch your habits; they become character.

Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

Remember, "Success comes to those who BELIEVE in the beauty
of their dreams."

BE a Compassionate Marketer

GROW!

BELIEVE!

How to Get and Retain your Customers

2007-07-25T09:00:00.002-05:00

Customer retention is a very important part of Network Marketing.

If your present company does NOT have a Retail plan in place, then you should ask them to initiate one. Retail Sales is the life's blood of building Long Term Recurring Income.

My good friend "Big Al" Tom Schreiter calls affiliate/distributors and Customers alike USERS. What this means is that your compensation plan and company should provide for an equal amount of compensation for your product being used (ordered) by either the distributor OR Customer.

So how DO you KEEP your customers? Well, first you have to get them :-)

When I chat with people and they tell me they have a health challenge, the first thing I do is LISTEN.

A Compassionate Marketer will LISTEN to the prospective customer. Go ahead, let them talk! The more they talk the more you LEARN about what their needs are.

Perhaps you learn that their children have special requirements. Perhaps their Grandmother has diabetes or arthritis or needs a hearing aide.

Once they are done talking I always ask them "would you like to do something about that?" Yes? Great! Then I mention whichever product might serve them well or ask if their Grandmother would be interested in something that would help her.

Now your prospect is a customer. There are several steps I take right away. You may want to do them too.

1- Keep a log of all your customers including name, date of purchase, product, delivery date, Thank You date, Re-order date etc. Be sure and note the items in #7. You can use a a spreadsheet or an old fashioned card file (like a recipe card box) which is what I use)

2- SEND a Hand Written THANK YOU note. Yep! That's right. Go buy a package or three of Thank You notes from the grocery store or order personal ones from Vista Print but BE SURE and send out that Thank you note within the first few days. It should arrive before or when the product arrives.

3- Follow up with your customer (PHONE CALL) when the product arrives to make sure they know EXACTLY how to take it and then ask if you can check back in a few days to see how they are doing. (Calendar a call for a few days later.)

4- Follow up with ANOTHER Call about 5-7 days later to find out how the customer is feeling or doing with your product. This is the time that you can suggest any adjustments to the usage regime for a more effective outcome. If necessary, schedule another follow up call.

5- Calendar a follow up call for three weeks later (when the re-order should be due) to chat and remind the customer that a re-order is imminent. You might say, "I am so glad that you are feeling ............using our product. I see that you are due for a refill next week. Shall I process your order for you so that you won't run out, or would you like to do the reordering yourself on my website?" Most people will be thrilled that you contacted them and will give you the reorder right on the spot.

6- Once the re-order is complete send out another Thank you note specifically for the re-order. THIS TIME mention that your company has a convenient REFILL program so that the product will be delivered to them without them having to manually process the order. You may also include a bit of literature about another product that you feel your customer has an interest in OR send them a sample of another product.

**This is an important step because MANY people will agree to the refill program (AUTOSHIP) however they will state that they WANT TO KEEP IN TOUCH WITH YOU. That's the Secret! Make sure you assure them that you will be in touch with them and DO SO. Calendar a once a month "hello" call with them.

7- Be sure and jot down any Life Cycle events for your customer such as Birthdays, Anniversaries, kids/spouse birthdays etc. and SEND A CARD to them. Use the US mail rather than an electronic card. This is a lots art and your customer will NEVER forget that you send them cards. Sending cards equals LONG TERM RETENTION. It is customer service at its finest!

8- Develop a short Newsletter for your Customers and send it out once a month. Highlight a product by offering some information about it first. Two or three paragraphs is suitable. BEFORE you close your newsetter and almost as an afterthought you my say, "For more information about this product please go to http://www.yourproduct.com/ " The PURPOSE of this little newsletter is to EDUCATE people about other products that you have. They may not order now, but they might KNOW SOMEONE who needs the nformation/product. To that end you might set up your own

9- Customer referral program and let your customers know that you appreciate referrals. Now a LIFETIME customer is a valuable asset and it is not necessary to "convert them" to distributor status. You might reward your customer for referrals by giving them an occasional free product. Everyone likes something for nothing :-)

10- Don't' forget to SMILE when you are on the phone with your Customer and ALWAYS call them as scheduled. Courtesy, caring and hands on customer service will ensure customer retention.

Would you like a free consultation to discuss customer acquisition or retention? Please send me an email or call, anytime.--

What is Network Marketing?

2007-07-02T15:05:00.000-05:00

There are no secrets to Network Marketing.

It's not magic and you don't have to be a Magician to be successful.

Network Marketing is simply another way to market products.

We are all used to "Direct Sales".

Remember the Kirby Vacuum cleaner guy?

Remember the Fuller Brush man?

They were Direct Marketers just like a phone company calling you
to ask if you want to switch to their phone company.

Network Marketing is really REFERRAL MARKETING.

Have you sent your child to a great camp and told your friends and neighbors?

Tried a new bottle of beer or wine and loved it so much that you told all your buddies?

Send your kids to a great school?

Purchased a bubble bath that left your skin soooooooo beautiful and soft that you
called all your girlfriends and told them about it? What about a lipstick or mascara?

Did you purchase a new car from a Dealer that DIDN'T HASSLE YOU? I bet you told
ALL YOUR FRIENDS about this terrific car dealer.

These are all examples of REFERRAL MARKETING.

Network Marketing in Referral Marketing at it's best; it PAYS you for
all your product and service referrals! Imagine that! Getting paid for referring
people to products and services that you already like and are using :-)

J. Paul Getty (The Steel Magnet) was once overheard saying: "I would
rather have 1% of the efforts of 1000 men than 100% of my own efforts".

WHY? Because each of us can only contact and know a limited amount of people.

J. Paul Getty understood that if you LEVERAGE your efforts by helping other
people get what they want, then you create a win-win situation!

Starting Your Week Right :-)

Start the week right! Each day provides us with the opportunity to FOCUS and TAKE ACTION, and doing so will, accumulatively, help bring us closer to our goals! We all have a desire to achieve some level of success. Have you THOUGHT ABOUT what level YOU are reaching for?

For some the desire is greater than the averageperson. Let's face it, everyone wants to be successful but very few are really willingto pay that price of W.E.I.T. (What Ever It Takes) Success is an attitude. It is a posture that you take that states, "I deserve to have it all."

Success is attainable to all, yet so few achieve it.

Success is a habit and has no real secrets.It all starts with your belief system. Your belief system starts with how you feel about yourself.

Your own personal self-esteem is the key ingredient to so much of your success. You must first adopt a personal positive self-image of yourself. In networking your product is always going to be "YOU" and your second productis people. You are really marketing your confidence. That is why a positive self-image is so important, especially in your first conversation with your prospects.(You never get a second chance to make a first impression.) Forgiving yourself, others in your past, past mistakes & failures are paramount in your early journey to success. If you are, or have not been able to do this, then perhaps you Need a 30 Day Mental Cleanse. Join our Community and "wash awaythe Ghosties" and find out WHO and BECOME the real and wonderful YOU! There is No Charge to Join our Community or to participate in the 30 Day MentalCleanse! For questions regarding the Mental Cleanse, feel free to email me Cleanse@RSMallory.com

The Law of Attraction is alive and well!!

A key point to remember here is that you attract to your reality who and whatyou are. When you are positive and feel good about you, you attract like-mindedindividuals. The same holds true if you are negative in your thought processes.Your thought processes will always determine your bank account of love. It isessential that you learn to forgive, let go, and let go of your past. Many peopledrag their past into their present, which stops them from ever having a clearvision of their future. Success is a process, not a payoff. You will pay your ten dollars at the door on your journey to success, and you will find out fast that there are no shortcuts. You will never be able to completely master every detail of your life. Attemptingto do so will only lead to frustration. What will make the most difference thoughis becoming the master of a few key principles that will allow you to have the fastest personal growth. To accomplish this task you will begin to think exponentially rather than incrementally.(THINK BIG - ACT BIG) You must have uncommon thoughts to have uncommonresults and a steady consistent plan of action.

What I have found in my twelve years of entrepreneurship is that very few people have a plan of action. "When you fail to plan, you are planning to fail." By "Plan of Action", what I am talking about is your goals down on paper wherethey are visible and you can get your hands on them to monitor your progress. You also have to have a very precise clear mental picture of where you are going on your journey to success.

Make your goals reachable and realistic, yet big enough that you have to stretch to reach them. Along with goal setting, I recommend that you have a daily plan of action (Method of Operation) in place that you work from daily. If you are part time, have down on paper exactly what you will do in the hours you commit to your enterprise. If you are full time do the same. Don't over-promise to yourself. Put down on paper exactly what it is that you will do in the time you devote toyour business. This will allow you to hold yourself accountable. Every night before you go to bed look over your daily method of operation and ask yourself how accountable you were to yourself today. Be consistent Practice The Slight Edge; baby steps each and every day. Consistent effort over a period of time over and over coupled with personal growth will create consistent results.

Our Business is not a numbers game or even "selling", rather, it is RELATIONSHIP BUILDING! No matter what business or enterprises in networking you are in, the most important aspect will be how well you can build relationships with people andmake them feel that you genuinely CARE about THEM….

The Secret to Building and Maintaining Instant Relationships

2006-12-10T20:57:00.001-06:00

My number one rule is Practice Abundance, Prosperity and KINDNESS, every day!

When I chat with a prospect or someone I meet on the street, I always LISTEN toWHAT and HOW they are expressing themselves. When you are prepared to LISTEN you find out much more about folks than they might reveal to you than if you keep on interrupting them. Why is that? People are frazzled and have hecticlives. They no longer have or develop communication skills and yet they are STARVED for a kind word, or for someone to just let them "chat away".

The SECRET is in the LISTENING.

Let the person know that you have HEARD them by repeating a simple phrase back to them, or changing the words around a bit. LISTENING is a lost art, and those of us who develop the TALENT for LISTENING are richly rewarded with developing many relationships. Compassionate Marketers have a truly remarkable advantage. YOUR team mates should be a closely knit family; one that is CARING and CONSIDERATE of people and their lives. People are searching for and yearning to live better, longer and more fruitful lives.

Are YOU listening?

Yes, people are frazzled and have hectic lives. Since most people no longer have developed communication skills they become STARVED for a kind word AND they are starved for someone caring enough to show them how they & their families might lead more healthful and rich lives. Pay attention! LISTENING and CARING will avail YOU the opportunity to create a bond with someone new, it gives you the blessing of being able to help them, simply by LISTENING.

It has been said that being able to develop relationships will put you on the road to success in ANY business. Listening and CARING about the other person are the seeds that will initiate and maintain those relationships, whether personal or business.

Start listening with a CARING ear, and you will be amazed at how your life suddenly overflows with people who want to BE WITH YOU or BE INVOLVED WITH YOUR BUSINESS.

Make sure that you Practice Abundance, Prosperity and kindness, EVERY DAY!

Communication skills are so very important, and most people do not take the time to develop or learn about communicating with others. The biggest part of communications IS listening, or Watching, or Feeling, but not with your ears or eyes, but with your heart!

TIPS: If you are physically with someone, then always Shake their hand firmly (but not hard) and say something like, "It is very nice to meet you" and be SURE to use their first name! ALWAYS look them straight in the eyes and put a big SMILE on your face. People always react positively to a smile. Always start a generic conversation with the person; perhaps about their family, pet or other subject—then LISTEN to them intently to get the cues you will need to know WHAT they WANT in their lives, what is MISSING in their lives, and how you MIGHT BEST HELP THEM achieve their goals. If you LISTEN carefully, all these things will be revealed.

Maintaining mini relationships is easy to do. Keep a file of your conversations, details such as family members, Life Cycle Events such as Birthdays, Graduations and Anniversaries, etc. and send a little NOTE or CARD to mark the occasion. THANK YOU notes are a must; it is a lost art and people will remember you for taking a moment to honor them. When I send out Thank You notes, I always include a packet or two of one of my products to let them know that I wish them health AND prosperity!

You might include a sample of your product or a coupon for your sevices With every contact you make, and ALWAYS refer back to something they related or mentioned to you in the last conversation. This ONE ACTION is worth its weight in Gold and signals that you CARE ABOUT and actually LISTEN to the person with whom you are speaking. Here is an example of how this works: Perhaps this person has Arthritisin their hands. I might ask them how their hands are feeling today. This might even be a perfect opportunity to ask if they "would like to do something about" the pain in their hands. I learned this simple and effective question from "Big Al" Tom Schreiter. Here's the best part; when they say "yes" it is an invitation to let them know about a a product that might help them.

If you are not physically with someone and calling them on the telephone or perhaps conversing on the computer, you may still open up a generic but thoughtful conversation. Again, LISTEN to what the other person is SHARING with you. They are handing you the keys to your success if you are listening with your heart. One more thing; Practice Abundance, Prosperity & Kindness EVERY DAY and you life will be blessed one thousand fold!

Why Compassionate Marketing?

2006-12-09T11:46:00.000-06:00

Because I have been an Educator, Corporate Executive and Network Marketer it was a natural step to develop Compassionate Marketing. I presently Coach, Mentor & Teach people how to BECOME a better more effective person so that they might pursue their own financial goals and dreams successfully AND TEACH OTHERS how to do the same thing through Compassionate Marketing. Teaching little kids was fun; teaching Big kids (adults) how to BE little kids is even more fun. If you do NOT have Joi du Vie (Joy) in your life, if you do NOT have Laughter in your life, if you are struggling to no end, then you will appreciate and value the lessons you will learn with Compassionate Marketing :-) BE more and you BECOME more.

Do you practice "The Slight Edge"?

Are you "10 feet tall and Bulletproof"?

Are you a "deliberate creator" ??

If the answer to any of those questions is NO, then I would love to speak with you to help you attain YOUR goals and dreams. There in NO CHARGE andI have NO Agenda. I will help you with your present company/endeavor. You may also download my free gift,
