Self Motivation

I have found over the 30 year span of my Network Marketing involvement that there are very few individuals who are truly "self motivated." Most people I've seen get involved with this business start out so pumped up & excited --- start immediately talking to everyone they know, hop on the weekly calls & really think big; big goals - big dreams. However, after only a few months involved - a few negative responses ... a few "life" challenges & stumbling blocks - these people lose that "new enthusiasm" & either quit, jump into the next "deal of the day" or "settle" for the little part time money they can pick up where they are trading time for money & lose sight of their ultimate goal...to build a business where they can live the life of their dreams! And that saddens me. I think that I have always wanted big time success for these individuals - maybe more than they have wanted it themselves. We coach our team. We call. We email, fax, text, IM, organize a blitz, contests, meetings, etc. But when someone gets out of the motivation mindset, not much can be done...or is there? Yes there is. If you know someone who lacks that inner self motivation, first...get them to take a Verve, then plug them in. Sound familiar? I talk "plugging in" a great deal. And I will continue to do so until our entire team "gets it." All of us - no matter how self motivated we are - have to stay connected & plugged in ... involved so that our batteries are continually being charged! The best motivation is a deadline. That's why we blitz our business. We give ourselves a dead line - from this date to that to sponsor ten new. And when you enroll just ONE new person, guess what? You get re-motivated all over again. Your new person has that same energy you had in the very beginning. And, it's contagious. Just talking to them will get your business building energy & focus back on track! So what is the cure for lack of motivation? Two things. 1) Stay plugged in & 2) Enroll new people into your business ... personally. Call them everyday & catch their enthusiasm & run with it. Quit talking to your down, inactive peeps. They will drag you down. Get new &, again... STAY PLUGGED IN! xo
