So My Sponsor is No Help to Me...

Show of hands, how many of us have a good working relationship with our sponsors?

I am sure that there are very few hands in the air right now.

Mine is one of them (for a change).

In the past, my sponsors were always "too busy", just didn't care, or worse yet- complete idiots (having them around made it even harder for you to recruit). Let's face it for the most part, sponsors are no help at all.

So what are you going to do about it?

Well you basically have 2 options:

1. Quit: You can give up before you even start working. I do not care if you just joined or you have been in the biz for several months or even years. If you have to rely on your sponsor to get your business going, you need to quit. You obviously don't have what it takes. This is Net"work" Marketing, not ride your sponsor's coat tails, not sit back and do nothing marketing.
2. Step up: That's right, you'll need to step up and become the leader you want. The great thing about MLM and Network Marketing, is the huge amount of information available to you at the click of a button. Start learning about your business, the industry, and how to build strong teams that will multiply. You will find that people want leaders, and are drawn to them, your recruiting and retention will increase dramatically. Just do a Google search and you will find that there is a ton of experience and knowledge ready for you to learn.
   

So I am not here to encourage you to quit. I want to see Moms become successful and reach their dreams. SO I want you to step it up.

So it's not going to be easy. No one ever said it would be, every one has had "one of those days" You know when

you wish you could crawl back into bed and go back to sleep.

Yesterday was one for me. I had a headache. The boys were awake, my sponsor dropped off a ton of stuff for me to go through, and all I wanted to do was crawl back into bed and pull the blanket up over my head.

My husband’s Mom woke up and started to take care of the boys. Thank God.

If I didn’t have so much to learn I would have slept all day. I went back to my room, closed the door, and plugged in the laptop so I could rest, and work at the same time. I spent many hours on my laptop yesterday, learning new things. It’s amazing everything that we are getting ready for the upcoming year. We are very excited.

I alternated work and naps (long lessons and a headache are not a good combination). Amazingly I made it thru 3 discs. I still managed to check on my emails and talk to my sponsor about the things to come.

All this with a migraine.

SO what’s the big deal? I was determined to get things accomplished. I could have just as easily gone back to bed and shut everything out for a whole day. I could have been a lump on a log. Anyone who has ever had a migraine would not blame me for doing it.

Without determination, you can’t succeed. We can give you encouragement, training, training tools and resources. We can show you how, but if you are not willing to do the work, you won’t succeed. We all have our bad days, we all have difficulties and problems.

We all have the same opportunity and we all have the same chances at making it big.

The ones that are determined are the ones that will make it. You need to visualize and work towards that dream. You need to be willing to learn new things and to change course in order to reach that dream. Because the dream doesn’t change, the way you get there does.
