“Did You Make a Decision or a Commitment?”
|
I get questions like these from network marketers a lot...
- Why do my new downline members start out so fired up then just
fizzle out?
- I was so excited when I started with this company. Why can't I bring myself to show the opportunity to people?
- I know there's money to be made in MLM, but I'm not doing it.
What's wrong with me?
I've got to tell you, all of these problems boil down to the difference
between making a decision and making a commitment. Let me
explain.
It's actually pretty easy to make a logical decision to join an
MLM company. There are many reputable companies with good products
and decent compensation plans. You can do the math and see how
you can build a network marketing organization into an income
producing asset for you.
And, a decision IS the first step in any achievement, great or
small. You decide to get up instead of staying in bed, you decide to go
to work instead of staying home, you decide to lose weight by
adopting a healthier life style.
But, if you don't take the next step of committing yourself to your
decision, you will most likely fail in what you're trying to do.
When you are committed to something, you have focus - it's difficult
to get "uncommitted". If you have children, for example, you
wouldn't just "decide" one day that you don't want to be a
parent any more. Although, I have three children and it has crossed my
mind, briefly. You are COMMITTED to being a parent, it is second
nature to you - a part of who you are. And, you don't question your
DECISION to be a parent over and over again. Just because
Someone says things like "I will never have children, it's too much
work, too much responsibility, the world is a horrible place and I won't
bring a child into it" doesn't make you decide to quit being a parent,
does it?
But, in network marketing, this happens ALL THE TIME! You join a
great opportunity, you're raring to go, and then someone says to
you
"Oh no! You're not doing one of those pyramid scam things, are
you?".
You KNOW in your head that it's not a scam, but you haven't
totally committed to your new venture with your heart. So, maybe you quit.
A little clarification is in order here. When I say "heart", I
don't mean the part of you that's full of sentimental and tender feelings
towards people and things you care about. I mean the part of your heart
where your courage lives. The part that will fight like a lion for
what you believe in, the part that won't let you quit on something you're
committed to.
Networking is a head AND heart business. You have to use your head to...
- Investigate and decide on a program and upline that gives you
the best chance to succeed
- Develop plans and schedules to work your business
- Keep learning about the industry, company and products
You need your heart (or courage) to...
- Keep your dreams of financial independence alive
- Get you through the times when you think you can't take one
more "no", or make one more call, or place one more ad
- Reach out to other people and share your products and/or
opportunity to improve their lives
I have heard that successful people make decisions quickly and
change their minds slowly, while unsuccessful people make
decisions slowly and change their minds quickly and often. Makes sense to
me -
you have to have your head and your heart into whatever you want to
accomplish in order to succeed.
