Today’s #AskBob episode comes from a question I received on Instagram.
I have the DESIRE to lead, but I’m wondering whether or not I have the ABILITY to do so? I’m way too hard on myself, and don’t really believe in myself as a leader. Can I learn, or is it hopeless?
This is something that I know a lot of you are probably struggling with right now. You hear me telling you that this is a ‘challenge for you to step up as a leader’. I know most of you have that desire to lead your teams, and be a leader to the people in your life.
But I also know that many of you struggle when it comes to your own confidence and belief as a leader. Today’s episode I’ll share my thoughts with you on this topic. It’s something that I’m really passionate about, because for a very long time, I struggled with this same thing.
What I want you to know is that leaders aren’t BORN, and that every one of you has the seed of leadership inside of you right now. You need to believe that to be true, and you have to be willing to push past your fears and step out there and lead. That’s the only way you’re going to truly discover that which already lies inside of you.

This may be one of the most important messages that I ever share with you.
Amidst the tragedy and chaos that’s going on in the world right now exists the seed of an incredible opportunity.
What we are dealing with right now in the world is a call to LEADERSHIP.
You are being called right now inside of your business to be a LEADER.
My advice to you is it should NOT be ‘business as usual’ for you - I want you to shift gears and take a radically different approach.
As a profession right now, we are failing miserably on social media.
What the world needs today isn’t another sales pitch or marketing promotion - it needs a message of LOVE, inspiration, and HOPE.
If you are a position of leadership - The world needs you right now, get on social media, be visible and be heard...
Now is the time for us to put our own selfish interests aside from making that next sale, and let’s all come together as one, and do our parts to lead the world through this crisis.
Don’t feed the fear that everyone else is peddling, spread LOVE and become a light for others to follow.
Choose to be a part of the SOLUTION, not someone that feeds into the problem.
BE THE LIGHT - encourage people through these difficult times, love on people harder than you ever have before, and SHOW UP.
Please share this message with your teams and anyone else you know that’s in this profession.
Make sure you follow me on Facebook or Instagram to watch my new daily live show…
What’s your capacity to HAVE in your life?
Whether you realize this or not, you have been preconditioned to only accept a certain amount of income and success in your life.
I see it all of the time – each of us has this subconscious threshold for money and success.
There is an approximate amount of income you earn that you feel comfortable HAVING.
And once we meet that threshold, odd things start happening in our businesses.
If your income or results rise above this threshold, you’ll start to struggle with inconsistency, you go into self-sabotage mode, or you find a way to undermine your results.
And most of you (just like me), will get stuck at or around a certain rank advancement or level of results in your business because of this same threshold.
Because here’s the thing you need to know – the amount of success that you’re going to experience is determined by your MINDSET.
The real issue for most of us is that we have LIMITING BELIEFS around the areas of money and success that are holding each of us back from the results we want.
We, whether it’s consciously or subconsciously, believe we can only achieve a certain level success or make a certain amount of money.
And when we reach that level, our self-limiting beliefs begin to kick in and limit us from moving farther ahead.
We can focus on having the ‘right strategies’ or taking massive amounts of action, but none of these will ever make a difference unless we each address our self-limiting beliefs.
I want you to become aware of these limiting beliefs you have that are holding you back, and consciously adopt a new set of beliefs that will empower you to raise your CAPACITY TO HAVE in all these areas.
Join me in this episode as I share with you about mindset coaching and how to overcome your self-limiting beliefs.
If you need some mindset coaching and support join Next Level Leadership at www.nextlevelleadership.com when we open enrollment on Wednesday.

Let’s talk about the #1 mistake people make when training their new team members.
I see this all of the time. We get a new team member and the first thing we begin doing is TEACHING.
We begin going through ‘the steps’ to building a business, we assign videos to watch, and worst of all, books to read.
However, the problem with too much information is that you are overwhelming your new team member. And instead of being excited about the business, they feel bad that they don’t have the time to get all of your assignments done.
Understand this: More teaching and training does NOT equal more results.
So, how should you train a new person?
Your Onboarding System must help people visualize the transformation that can occur in their lives when they take action and build a successful business.
So listen up as I go deep into the best way to onboard a new team member and also share with you the two strategies you need to be implementing today.

You may not want to hear this, but, here’s what I want to say to you…
If you’re not, at the very least, SHOWING UP and doing the work in your business, then you don’t get to complain anymore about your lack of results!
I think what some of you need is a little ‘tough love’ in this area -you need someone that cares enough about you to take a stand for you and your future success.
As most of you know, we’ve created the first ever leadership certification program for Network Marketing in the world - The Legacy Leadership Academy. This program is a 12-month program designed to give network marketers everything they need to create success in this industry.
And there have been SO many success stories that have come from members of the academy. In fact, some of the students have been guests in the previous episodes of this podcast.
However, with all my efforts – designing the program, producing video trainings, and even creating a mobile app – it’s so interesting to me that some network marketers are posting on social media how ‘stuck they feel’ or ‘overwhelmed they are.’ Because here’s the thing - these are also the very same people who consistently do NOT make the time to show up and do the work.
Here’s your wakeup call -- You do NOT get the right to complain anymore about your 'lack of results' if you aren't willing to show up and do the work.
The true reality is that there are people with the exact same challenges that you have right now; yet those people are making the time and taking action.
I think it's time for some of you to finally make your success A PRIORITY in your life.
Stop the blame game, don’t fall into the complaining trap, and start taking action.
And the first action I’m assigning to you is listen to this podcast. Then share it with a team member who maybe needs to hear the same message, too!
You CAN do this. And I am and always will be your biggest cheerleader!

In this episode of Biz Tip Friday, I’m going to answer the question - ‘How do I reach out and share what I do in an AUTHENTIC way, without coming across ‘too salesy’, to people that I haven’t spoken to in a while?’
Here’s the reality – eventually we are going to saturate our warm market and have to reach out to people that we know but that we haven’t been in contact with for a while.
However, out of FEAR, network marketers typically aren’t willing to actually reach out to these people. We are so worried that we might sound ‘too salesy’ or ‘inauthentic.’
However, you must understand that the product that you’re offering CAN change someone’s life.
Therefore, NOT sharing your products with people is the actual definition of being INAUTHENTIC.
I want you to completely shift your mindset around this topic and know this:
The secret to selling with authenticity and passion is loving what you do SO much that you feel as though you’re doing people a disservice if you don’t tell them about your product.
And here’s the key – make it about THEM and about how this product or business opportunity can transform their lives.

Do you ever find yourself working long, hard hours in your business - but for some reason can’t ever seem to create success?
If you answered ‘yes’ to this question, it’s more than likely because you aren’t treating your network marketing business like a REAL BUSINESS.
If you are still in the early stages of your business and you are building, growing, and learning, it’s OK. It can take a lot of work in the beginning to gain momentum while growing your business and team.
However, if you’ve been in your business for over a year and you’re still not making any money, it’s because you’re treating it more like a HOBBY – and that is not OK.
You have to really be honest and ask yourself – Am I a Hobbyist? Or am I a REAL business owner?
These questions and so many more will help you authentically look at yourself and know whether or not you are a hobbyist or a real business owner.
And the answers to these questions will also help you decide where you need to show up differently in your business to change for the better and build the business of your dreams.
So, tune in as I share with you what defines a hobbyist vs a real business owner in the network marketing profession…including the 2 most important things that Real Business Owners do differently than the Hobbyists that help them create long term success!
