The answer to that question is not taking responsiblity. Everybody knows that when you are over 18 years old you are by law responsible for your own life. Why do people avoid taking responsibility for 10-50 years? The reason why is because they do not have a definite purpose of where they are going in life. To have a definite purpose you have to have a burning desire for what you want to accomplish. Lets say you want to be a six figure income earner in two years. What do you do? First of all everybody says that if you want to be a six figure income earner you have to ask what a six figure income earner did and not question it. Even if it is painful do it. I heard from Jim Rohn "the price of success weighs ounces and the price of failure weighs tons." Second you gotta ask what is most important to you in life? Are you being asked to do too many requests that take over your business? If yes and you are being disturbed tell your folks in a firm way no I have four appointments with clients that I have to make and I can not do it right now. If you say a few times no and they fail to adopt do your business outside the home in a library or Starbucks where you have the least distractions. People too often forget about the Slight Edge, that it is invisible results are being produced based on every single task that needs to be done. My friend Art Jonak had two of his friends join him in business during the same week. They both earned $1000 after 6 months. After 12 months the second guy's income was $5000 per month. However after 24 months the second guys income was $50,000 per month while the first guys income remained at $1000 per month. Why did that happen? That happened because the first guy focused while the second one did not follow the system and wandered off.
People do not know where to get advice from. My good friend and mentor Michael Dlouhy says that if you want to get open heart surgery don't ask a dentist about it. A dentist of course does not know anything about it. Yet people are not selective with whom they should ask advice from. Do not ask your best friend if he is not living the life you want to live.
We can all learn from Michael Dell and Bill Gates because they were youngsters when they had they were in business. Bill Gates was in the late 70's when he started and Michael Dell was in the late eighties. They believed everyone will have a desktop computer in their house. While IBM told them it will never happen. Guess what IBM lost and Gates & Dell won. Dell Corporation was started in a college dormitory and Dell saw the end result.
Napoleon Hill mentions that if you do not know what you are majoring in college you should stop going. I have a childhood friend who dropped out in his third year of college and he used to say that you do not need to have college to become successful in life. He went back to college only because he knew why he wanted to go back for, NOT because of the degree.
He was 25 years old at the time and was always an A student. If he could make excellent decisions so can we!!! It does not matter if it is in network marketing or not!!!
We can all learn how to see the end result and go back to the beginning. We must plan what we do tommorow tonight, just like we did our homework the night before we went into school. In The Seven Habits Of Highly Effective People Steven Covey will tell you the rest of the story.
See you at the top!!!
