Did you know that starting small is THE KEY to sustainable success in your business?  

If you’re like 75% of the world’s population (and like me!), you started the year with some type of goal or New Year’s Resolution – a fitness goal, rank advancement, business growth, etc.  

And to meet these goals, we’re going to take all kinds of ‘massive action’ to achieve them, because most of us believe that doing more is the key to success.

However, the problem is that we lose steam because we realize we're not capable of taking all of this massive action to reach these goals. And so, many of us get discouraged and eventually STOP altogether.

Here’s the thing, the common belief that ‘more is the key to success’ is a LIE.

Success is not doing more. It’s doing better at less. 

In this episode, I teach you a concept we use in my membership groups called the ‘Minimum Baseline Activity,’ which I believe will set you up for success in every one of your goals, both in your business and in the rest of your life.

Did you know that 75 million people quit jobs in 2021? 

This mass exodus is being called  ‘The Great Resignation’ or ‘The Big Quit.’

More people than ever before are questioning their jobs and careers and asking themselves if they’re really happy doing what they’re doing and what would make them happier.

The pandemic was a really horrible experience, but it compelled us to re-evaluate our work-life priorities and identify what’s most important to us all.

According to a recent Forbes article, the throngs of people leaving their jobs want:

—> A bigger salary

—> More career opportunities

—> A feeling of value from their leaders

—> Better relationships with their colleagues

—> The ability to continue working remotely

They also want to do work that MATTERS.

Wouldn’t it be awesome if something like that actually existed?  OH WAIT….

The networking marketing business offers these opportunities, and so that’s why RIGHT NOW is the greatest time in history for our profession.  

The key question is…

Can you really BELIEVE in these things when talking with people, even if they haven’t happened for you yet?

In this episode, I talk about why today is the greatest time for Network Marketing and how you can start envisioning and building a purpose-driven business that gives freedom and fulfillment today.

What if the ultimate goal for our business is to become INSIGNIFICANT within it? I was in a network marketing company that celebrated rank advancements and sales by putting you in front of a large room full of people.    The spotlight was such a big deal. It was the goal.  It was coveted by everybody so much that it became even more valuable than money.  And so, the first time I gave an actual presentation, I felt ecstatic about it.  I thought ‘This is what leadership is.’ 

However, a powerful conversation completely changed my mindset on leadership. 

This guy, who at the time was 10x more successful than any other person in our company, told me that his value as a leader is not tied to his personal results, but by the results of the people on his team. 

He said that it’s not about how many times you stand in front of a room, but how many stories you help create for other people. 

You see, the more successful we become, the less significant we need to become as well.   

In this episode, I share the dangers of ego-driven leadership and what it means to build a true leadership legacy.

What’s more important in your business – RESULTS or GROWTH? 

We hear it over and over inside the network marketing industry…

 That the secret to success is focusing on the income producing activities (IPA’s) of your business.

IPA’s are the front-end activities that we do in the business to create leads - activities like prospecting, creating content on social media, giving presentations, sharing your products with people, etc. 

However, when we take action, we also get extremely focused on the results. 

And when we don’t see the results that we want to see or expect, we begin to get discouraged and doubt ourselves.

Here’s the thing — focusing on IPAs might produce short-term personal success, but they will never contribute to the long-term growth of your business.

If you want to see long-term sustainable success in your business, you need to shift your mindset and activity to what I like to call Growth Oriented Actions (GOA’s).

In this episode, I teach why focusing on IPA is a formula for failure and how you can shift to growth oriented actions to achieve sustainable business growth.

Are you worried about sounding (and feeling!) like a salesperson when talking to prospects?  

And is that fear affecting your results?

This is one of THE biggest concerns we, as network marketers, have.  

Honestly, it’s one of the reasons so many people avoid our industry and profession!

Sounding like a salesperson and being concerned only about ‘the sale’ or ‘the new recruit’ is a major turnoff to people joining your team!

If you are coming off as a bit ‘salesy,’ it might be because you’re building your business with a SALES mindset. 

People with a sales mindset are focused on the results and the results alone.  

They constantly pitch their products and services to people that don't even have a legitimate need for them.

But, if you’re listening to this podcast, I know YOU want to be different.

You want 2022 to be different.  And that means you must lean into having a SERVICE mindset.   

And to have a service mindset, you must stop focusing on the results and start serving each individual person and what their personal needs are.

You need to begin making your conversations intentional and purposeful.  Identify the problems people have and solve those problems by asking them the right questions.  

In this episode, I’ll teach you how to build your business without feeling like a salesperson and how to make your prospecting conversations purposeful and intentional and 100% about the person you are serving.

Join me for FREE training on the new Facebook Live Audio Rooms!

I’m super excited about this move because Facebook Live Audio Rooms are something I’ve been waiting for a long time!

It’s basically like Clubhouse on Facebook except with SO many more features that will help use reach more people, make it easier for you to interact with us, and just have a bigger impact overall.

And we’re kicking off the fun on Monday, January 17 at 9 a.m. ET!

From January 17th on, we’ll be going LIVE in our Facebook Live Audio Room every Monday morning from 9 a.m. ET - 10 a.m. ET.

It’ll be the BEST way to get personal coaching from me, listen to other network marketers get coached, and ask me questions through the comments. 

For a taste of what that coaching will sound like, we wanted to give you a sneak peek in this week’s podcast episode.  

I’m sharing two of our LIVE COACHING sessions that we did over on Clubhouse, which I think are both incredibly powerful.

The first session is with Lisa.  We talk about her overarching problem of feeling exhausted by her business and how it feels so hard putting a lot of time and effort into the business and not seeing a lot of results.

The second session is with Debbie where we discuss her lack of self-belief. Debbie’s desire is to help and serve other people, but her lack of belief in herself limits her from serving and impacting others. 

I think you’ll find that it will become a MUST to join us every Monday at 9 a.m. ET for our Facebook Live Audio Show — as every week we help more network marketers like Lisa and Debbie.

One of them could very well be YOU!

As always, I can’t wait to help coach you to a new level of growth and service in your business this year — and I’m excited to have you join us on Facebook on Monday, January 17!

Did you know that your business and exercising have a lot in common?  

After all the holiday festivities, maybe you’ve stepped up your workout regimen.  

And if so, you know that one concept that is extremely vital in exercise is FORM. 

In fact, it is way more important than the intensity, frequency, or weight that you can lift.

However, what’s fascinating is that the same thing applies to our businesses. 

We start off the year by taking massive action.  We do more, more, and more… more presentations, more social media postings, and talk to more people.

But here’s the problem… 

We are so focused in getting a number (quantity) that we sacrifice form (quality), which fundamentally leads to failure.   

Know this -- you'll never see sustainable success and freedom by just focusing on quantity.

In this episode, I discuss why you should focus on quality over quantity and why having good FORM is key to business success.

Happy New Year! It’s a fresh start - a new beginning.  

I believe most of us have already set our goals for 2022. And for so many of you, that probably includes a rank up in your company. 

So right now, you’re deep into thinking about the tactics, strategies, and actions to achieve that next rank. 

But here’s the shift you must make first: the change in your mindset will ALWAYS come before the actual rank.

The secret to goal achievement is this:  Before thinking about what you’re going to do, be clear on the mindset you need for success. 

Because impossible goals require you to be someone you’ve never been before, you must think in a way you’ve never thought and believe things you’ve never believed before.

Understand that your actions don’t create your results. It’s the MINDSET you have behind the actions.

In this episode, I share with you how you can transform your mindset and the way you think so you can achieve those impossible goals this 2022.
