If your leadership skills suck it’s because you SUCK! Those are some harsh words aren’t they. Too Bad. The question you have to ask yourself is whether it is true or not? The only reason I am saying this is to make you feel a little uncomfortable. If I have accomplished that, then I did what I set out to do.
You see, the only time we change in life is when we are uncomfortable PERIOD
As you are reading this, you are probably sitting in your chair and when you get a little uncomfortable you’ll probably move around until you find that perfect relaxed position. If you are not uncomfortable, then you probably won’t do a thing to make things better. Right? That’s no different than being a follower vs. a leader.
So, be truthful with me and more importantly, with yourself. Are you the Leader you want to be in life? Are you maybe just a little too comfortable where you are and you are not willing to go to that next level because it will be UNCOMFORTABLE? Read more…
Whether you are in Tribe Syndication Association (TSA) or not, you are not going to want to miss this free webinar. You may be asking yourself, “What the heck is TSA?” Well, let me tell you, my friends. TSA, as we call it, is one of the FASTEST growing social media tribes on the net PERIOD.
Back in early January of this year, I started thinking about the social media tribe concept. Social Media Tribes are where people come together in one place and help each other by promoting each others content around the internet. Most tribes at this time were using systems like Skype or similar tools and were meeting once a week to “blast their content” out across the airwaves during an hour. To me, this concept wasn’t powerful enough because the same people were the only ones commenting … Plus, what if some people in your tribe couldn’t make it to that Skype call and what if and what if and the list goes on. Now I’m not saying that it didn’t provide value. It did. But, was is really that powerful?
Now imagine a system to where there’s an organized system, where you can access it anytime and syndicate on your schedule, where there’s a rotation of over 100+ people to maximize getting hits from different IP Addresses, where people are syndicating over 25,000+ of material per week, where people in this tribe are leaving over 1,000+ blog comments per week!!!
Now that’s POWER!
Now that’s Tribe Syndication Association (TSA)!
Best of all, we do it for you and it’s All FREE!!! Read more…
Now some of you are looking at this post title and saying to yourself “What the heck is Dave calling me?” I’m not saying that you are using social media to sell your body to others for money but, a lot of people are using social media to push their businesses to make a quick buck. To me, this is very similar to a “Street Walker” asking every John that passes her what can I do to get your money? When it comes to social media, are you going to be a force for good? Or are you going to turn to the dark side – ruining your chances and infuriating those who cross your path?
Are You A Social Media Prostitute?
Social media when used properly is about building relationships and not about instant money. I’m sure all of you see it time and time again, but maybe you don’t realize that you may be doing similar things. Selling your reputation for a quick sale in social media will be your demise in the future. Just like a prostitute, many people on the internet are looking for the quick buck! For those who use this approach, the money will come from time to time, but in the end, do you really think these people can hold their heads high? Building integrity should be first and foremost and then the monetary Read more…
First off, I want to say that this post may tick a lot of you people off PERIOD. I know it will because most of you are so emotionally involved with your product or service and what I am about to say, is going to make you upset. That’s fine. We all need a reality check once in awhile to make sure that we are headed down the right path. While this post is not intended to push you in to our business opportunity, it is intended for you to evaluate your current business and make sure you understand what it is you may be marketing.
Dawn and I got started in Network Marketing after reading some books by Donald Trump, Robert Kiyosaki and others. Unfortunately when we first started in this industry we were IGNORANCE on fire. We got caught up in all the HYPE the company was pushing and really didn’t look at it from a TRUE business professional standpoint. They dangled the Black Mercedes, the Jets, the Big Piles of Money, Vacations and of course Residual Income for the sales pitch. Guess what, we too fell for it, hook, line and I think I choked on the sinker!
I mean come on, if all these dumb, stupid people can make all this money, certainly Read more…
A lot of people do nothing but waste their time with Social Media. I mean think about it for a second. Typing on Twitter that “I just ate a dill pickle.” Who gives a crap! Get a life! People on Facebook send me all kinds of Gifts, Farmland pieces and Mafia War stuff. Once again, who gives a crap people! People on Youtube making videos about the “Most Useless Facts!”I don’t have time for this CRAP and neither should YOU!
Social Media Crap!
All around us we hear the doom and gloom about the economy. I hear it all the time “I don’t have enough money”, “I don’t have enough time with my “JOB”, the kids and everything I have to do all day.” But you have enough time to sit there and tell someone you just ate a Dill Pickle? Give me a break!
We currently live in a New World Revolution. Opportunities are all around us and you are not willing to step up and take advantage of it. Now I’m not talking about Read more…
How do “YOU” treat other people? Are you respectful and courteous or is it all about you? Do you treat people like you would like to be treated or are you going to be successful at “ANY COST”?
I can’t tell you how many people we come across in this industry or in life that are not respectful of others. So many times we are in a rush to get to a certain place in life that the attitude seems to be ME ME ME.Generation “X” is a perfect example of this – the I want it FAST and I want it NOW mentality. And why not? They grew up with everything at the push of a button. Can you imagine them using a rotatory phone? If some poor sap had a few “0’s” in their phone number, I bet you that they wouldn’t have any friends now days using that OLD rotatory phone. We are all in a rush these days but we need to step back and analyze how it’s impacting society.
Let take a look at the Good Ole Network Marketing industry. (Watch The Video Below)Read more…
I know a lot of you have already seen this video already but here is a little post to go along with it.
There are many ways to get in the game but you have to get OFF YOUR BUTT and JUST DO IT! Nobody is going to do it for you other than yourself PERIOD
So, do you want Fame? Fortune? Wealth? or Something Else? (And those words all have different meanings depending on you).
Well, what are you doing about it? Are you really in “The Game” or are you picking the splinters out of your behind on the sideline? hmmmm?
Really ask yourself this question. “Am I ALL IN or am I just KIND OF going after my dream?”
My Friends! If you really want this, you have to have a mindset of “I’m All In!!!” and to step out of your comfort zone. Let’s step out right now. REPEAT THESE LINES BELOW OUT LOUD! YES, I SAID OUT LOUD!
I will do whatever it takes for me to accomplish my dreams!
I am doing this for __________________ and that is my WHY!
People may laugh but they are simply afraid and are not laughing at me! I will rise to the TOP! & I WILL NOT LET ANYONE stand in the way!
Was that very difficult? NO! Would that be easy “to do” and also easy “not to do?” YES!
If you truly want more in life, than you need to Get In The Game. Either that or watch for my next post and at the end of that post I’ll be selling TWEEZERS. Really folks, you all have the potential to become What Ever you desire in life.
But the BIG QUESTION is, What are “YOU” willing to do? hmmmm
Leave me a comment below and share it.
Thanks! Dave
Today I was at one of our business locations when I thought of this topic. Picture this; there was a group of young elementary students on a field trip at The Pier in St. Petersburg Florida. While getting ready for their trolley ride, I heard one of the group leaders yelling at the children and telling them to get in an orderly line and be quiet until the trolley gets there. Either DO IT or we’re not going on the trolley. And guess what, the children all got in line and quieted down. Why? Because they wanted something and unless they did what they were told, they thought that they might not be able to do it.
Using threats or other ways of persuasion has almost always been a factor in most of our lives for years. As a matter of fact, did you know that an average child growing up is told the word “NO” approximately 40,000 times compared to the word “YES” at only about 5,000 times? No wonder so many people struggle to become financially successful. We have been programmed to think that we cannot achieve certain things throughout our entire lives. Unless you overcome all this negativity, you will become like most of the masses just getting by. Read more…
Don’t we all love to play board games? How about a game that everyone will love because it teaches you how to create riches and a steady cash flow? The financial literacy who acquire not only helps you to win the game, but gives you the skills you can use in your real life to secure your own financial freedom.
No, it’s not Monopoly, but you could actually call it Monopoly on Steroids. The games real name is Cash Flow 101 and it was created by our favorite financial-freedom author, Robert Kiyosaki.
As we learned by reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, we all start in the “Rat Race”. The “Rat Race” is the never ending loop created when you only work for money. Unless you know that there is a fast track to riches just outside the rat race, we’ll all remain in the rat race and never experience true financial independence and freedom which comes when you make your money work for you.
Sadly most of us don’t even know we are stuck in the rat race. As Robert and his Rich Dad explained to him, strictly working a job (working for money) never provides true wealth and riches regardless of how many raises you receive. When we lack financial literacy, with each raise we are taxed at a higher rate and we buy liabilities rather than investment assets with our increased salary. Read more…
I Love Larry Winget! This guy is direct, in your face, upfront and truthful about why people just don’t get it.
There’s noting complicated about his teaching, he just speaks the simple truth and believe it or not, most people don’t like hearing it. Meaning: Larry is a very entertaining speaker but he really makes you take a hard look at yourself rather than just using the positive thinking method that most motivational speakers teach.
If you really want to become a better person, a richer person, a smarter person or whatever type of person you want to become, then do it! Think about it. Nobody is going to do it other than you. So, if you want change, you have to change. PERIOD!
There aren’t too many “motivational” authors out there who will tell their readers to shut up and stop whining. But Larry Winget does not call himself a motivational speaker. In fact, he’s trademarked himself as “The World’s Only Irritational Speaker.”
So if you are rubbing crystals together, using the Law of Attraction in every part of your life and you don’t seem to be moving forward, then maybe you need to look in one other place to find the answers. YOU! It all comes back to you and your daily actions. Don’t get me wrong. I love using the law of attraction and it works for me whenever I really focus, but you also have to take action. Always wishing that things will become better isn’t action and action is what will move you forward. If you are broke, you had better take action to raise your financial IQ. Do you want a better love life? Read more…
