The Real meaning of Labor Day

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!

Are you a Network Marketing Elephant?

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

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.

Perception, Gratitude and Dancing in the Rain :-)

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,

How to Turn your (Success) Dreams in to Reality

"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!

Do me a favor and let me know if this article impacts your life :-)
I will send you one of the books (above) as a "Gratitude Gift" for your comment. Send your contact information to GratitudeGift@CompassionateMarketing.com along with the Title of the ebook you prefer and I will send it to you right away :-)

What is Network Marketing?

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!

The Secret to Building and Maintaining Instant Relationships

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?

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,
