It\’s important not only to think of how you are going to achieve your goals in you network marketing effort, but also to think from the top down. This alternate path of thought about your success can bring light to missing pieces. Take a second and ask yourself this question . . .
\”If I had a team of 5,000 people below me what would I have done to make that happen?\”
Really close your eyes and think about this, imagine yourself standing on a platform giving a speech to your team and telling them your story of how you got there.
- What would you say?
- What skills would you need to have?
- What tools would you need to have?
- What marketing systems would you use?
- What type of people would you be working with?
- What type of company would you be a part of?
- How would you teach your team to do what you do?
- How would you recognize those that are doing big things?
- Why were you successful?
These are all important questions to be addressed now. Why?
The great Earl Nightingale in his groundbreaking series \”Lead The Field\” tells the story of a young boy eagerly wanted to play with his father. The father knowing that he was distracted and could not play with his child at the time looked for something to give his son to do. He found an old magazine cover with a picture of the world on it.
The father ripped out the page and tore it into little pieces and said \”Here son, see if you can put this picture of the world back together.\” The child happily took to the challenge and in just a few minutes returned to his father with the entire picture reassembled. The father, amazed with how quickly his son was able to do this, asked how he had made such quick work of his task.
The child said \”It was easy! On the other side of the page was the picture of a man. All I did was put the man back together.\” The father smiled and said \”Yes son, when the man is together so is his world.\”
It\’s no different for you in your network marketing business. When you know who you must be success will find its way to you. You must be the person standing on the stage giving the speech long before you ever get there.
