Successful MLM Enterprise Requires Mastery of Self

Taking yourself from an employee mindset to a entrepreneurs mindset of the self-employed requires a consistent investment of YOU.

The old mindset of Network Marketing was to "throw money at it". In other words lack of success was because you didn't spend enough money marketing, buy leads, or anything requiring the consistent effort of doing more (buying more leads) to simply play the numbers game. Turning Network Marketing into a direct sales business that appeared to work better for those who had money to invest.

The true investment in Network Marketing is the investment and mastery of yourself. It allows you to respond rather than react and to take ownership and responsibility rather than blame. These characteristics built in yourself allow you to lead others.

Every person who becomes involved in Network Marketing is working on becoming a leader. The amount of personal growth determines how wide and far your reach becomes when you build big, deep, and have a high retention rate.

Don't look to the left, or the right or behind you to see where "others" are in this process because nobody can do the effort to master you, and the minute you take your eyes off of developing yourself and look to see where "others" are in their process you have turned your investment into a competitive race. And there is no competition in your personal growth.

Effect of Thought on Circumstances

Every man is where he is by the law of his being: the thoughts which he has built into his character have brought him there, and in the arrangement of his life there is no element of chance, but all is the result of a law which cannot err. This is just as true of those who feel "out of harmony" with their surroundings as fo those who are contented with them.

As a progressive and evolving being, man is where he is that he may learn that he may grow; and as he learns the spiritual lesson which any circumstance contains for him , it passes away and gives place to other circumstances.

Man is buffeted by circumstances so long as he believes himself to be the creature of outside conditions, but when he realizes that he is a creative power, and that he may command the hidden soil and seeds of being out of which circumstances grow, he then becomes the rightful master of himself.
