Beautiful, Brilliant, Broke

Do you know someone who is really dumb and makes a lot more money than you and you are jealous? (Yes)

How about have you ever been part of a business opportunity and met the top earners and thought to your self “I am smarter and better looking than them but they are making 100 times more money and everyone in the company knows their name! Why is that not me?!?!” (Yes)

The answer is really very simple.

1. The universe rewards action. The more action you take the closer you will get to your goals. Simply sitting around being smart is not enough to reach the top of the food chain.

2. They are doing things you are not doing. You are calling 1 prospect a day they are calling 25. You are sitting by your self reading a book on your lunch break they are doing a one-on-one lunch time presentation.

There are two ways to become successful: trial and error or modeling someone who already has what you want. The neat thing about most home business opportunities is the people walking across the stage getting the awards will gladly share with you what they did to get there and what they do now. All you have to do is ask.

Have you ever heard of paint by numbers? If you haven’t it is a canvas that has a picture printed on it and there are little numbers to tell you what color you should paint that section. Network marketing is a lot like the paint by numbers canvas. If you stay with in the lines and use the correct colors you have a nice beach scene in the end. Too many people try to “improve” it by going outside the lines and using the wrong color and end up with a disaster.
