“OVERNIGHT SUCCESS” IS NOT OVERNIGHT…

“Actually, I’m an overnight success, but it took twenty years.” Monty Hall

Have you ever wondered why some people achieve great levels of success and not you?  Does it appear to you that these successful people have come by their success effortlessly and sometimes even overnight?  Does it tick you off?  I know how you feel.

The only way to achieve “overnight success” is to work at your craft diligently EVERY DAY.  And it starts with these 6 keys YOU already have.

1. Think BIG

Everyone has the ability to think big but not everyone does it.  How big are your dreams?  Are you dreaming of just getting the bills paid every month or are you dreaming of setting up a billion-dollar non-profit organization to increase the food supply around the world so no one EVER has to go hungry again?

2. Believe in Yourself

You ARE good enough.  We are all good enough.  Are you reading this and saying to yourself “ I DO believe in myself, but I’m still not successful”?  Consider that your belief is lip service and the words you are really listening to are the ones that are unspoken-the thoughts of “I can’t do this”  “Can I really do this”  “I’m not smart enough” “How can I make my dreams come true?”  If you say you believe in yourself but you are constantly having thoughts to the contrary, those thoughts will over rule your spoken words.

3. Share the Vision

Whatever your dreams are, whatever it is you want to achieve LET IT BE KNOWN.  Tell people about it, share it.  And HOW you share it is just as important as sharing it in the first place.  State your intention with conviction.  You will be surprised at how well received your message will be and how much people will want to contribute to your dream.

4. Execute

This one is really simple, and yet we’ve all been challenged by it:  Get off the couch!!! You don’t need to know the “how.” Just get started.  You can have the first 3 keys-the dream, the belief and the voice to share it-but nothing will happen if you keep your rear parked on the couch.  It’s like telling everyone to get in the car and get ready for a wild ride on an empty tank of gas!  Or, even worse, you stay on the couch!  “Oops-I’m sorry.  I know it was my idea to go for a ride but I’m not going.  Ya’ll have fun now, ya hear!”

5. Focus

I’ve heard this time and time again by millionaires and billionaires.  Don’t try to do two  things at the same time.  Focus on and succeed at one thing.  Then move on to the next.

6. NEVER GIVE UP!!!

Captains of industry, professional athletes,  Olympic champions, top-dollar actors and musicians…they NEVER give up.  You don’t stop until your dream is reached.  Too often, sadly, people give up on their dreams.  In fact, many people have become so accustomed to giving up on their dreams, they probably don’t even remember what they were in the first place.

Have you ever wondered how 95% of the wealth could possibly be controlled by only 3% of the population and the other 5% of the wealth is being fought over by 97% of the population?  When you hear this statistic, does it make your jaw drop in astonishment?  It does mine.  Always.  Every time I hear it.  Every time I think it.  And I don’t know about you, but I don’t like it.  One of my BIG visions for this world is to truly re-distribute the wealth and hike that 3% to 50%.  How about that?  It can be done.  I have the keys…YOU have the keys.

A Big SHOUT OUT and Thanks to Bill Bartmann and iLearning Global

So, what do all 6 keys have in common?  They are ALL in your control.  Without reading another article or book, attending a seminar or listening to an audio.  All 6 are in your control.  And I want to thank billionaire, philanthropist and all-around good guy Bill Bartmann for sharing these keys and other success-building tips with me through the iLearning Global Community.

WHY PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT…

There is a very good reason why personal development has become a 100+ billion dollar industry.  IT BREEDS SUCCESS!!! Ask yourself “why are some people successful and others aren’t?”  You’ll discover one of the things ALL successful people have in common is their commitment to continuous learning and growing!

“If you wish to achieve worthwhile things in your personal and career life, you must become a worthwhile person in your own self-development.”-Brian Tracy

Period.

7,230,000 GOOGLE RESULTS…WHERE DO I START?

Good question.  Like I said, it’s a 100+ billion dollar industry.  If you do a Google search on “personal development” you will get 7,230,000 results!!  There are MANY wonderful personal development leaders.  There are also MANY very costly seminars.  Personally, I have invested thousands of dollars and countless hours in my personal growth.  And it has been worth every dollar and every second!!  I know people who have spent tens and even hundreds of thousands of dollars on personal development.  But now, I am THRILLED to be a part of a new personal development community.  A community that gives me 24/7 online access to the top luminaries in the personal development industry, delivered via HD quality videos, eBooks and audios…iLearning Global.

The creators of iLearning Global believe in education “by watching and by doing.”  Experiential learning is the most effective.  And the iLearning Global faculty members have gained their expertise from DOING.  You are getting access to continuous learning from leaders and top speakers such as Brian Tracy, Mary Manin Morrissey, John Gray, Harv Eker, Steven Covey and MANY more!!! It has never been so easy and convenient to begin and continue your personal development journey.

SUPERSIZE YOUR EDUCATION NOT YOUR FRIES!!

When you take a course, you take it once and that’s it.  When you read a book, you read it once, maybe twice and that’s it.  When you join iLearning Global, you have 24/7 access to hundreds of videos, eBooks and audios.  The content is updated on a weekly basis with fresh topics.  It is truly a transformational way to deliver much needed, desired and sought after information and education.  This is the most exciting community I’ve ever been a part of!!!

With iLearning Global you get personal development training and so much more!!!  I’ve read personal development books.  They just don’t do it for me.  I learn best by watching and doing…this is the foundation of iLearning Global.  The faculty is diverse which keeps things exciting and the content is continually updated with fresh, new material.  I have no doubt that ALL of the top speakers and leaders in the Personal Development industry will eventually become part of the iLearning Global faculty, including the King of Personal Development, Mr. Tony Robbins.

GIVE IT A SHOT

“You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.”-Wayne Gretzky

It is ESSENTIAL to your personal and business success to pursue education on a continuous basis.  iLearning Global gives you access to Personal Development, Financial Education and more.  Another great benefit of iLearning Global is it’s a month-to-month subscription that can be canceled at any time, unlike a seminar which is a one-time deal that can cost thousands of dollars for the course itself, not to mention the travel expenses.  Subscribe to iLearning Global and absorb as many of the educational videos as you can in one month.  If you do not agree that this is the MOST value packed, easy access, beneficial education system you’ve ever experienced, just cancel your membership.  It’s that simple.

Have you ever wondered why some people have MLM success and others don’t?  What exactly do the leaders of MLM companies have in common that makes them so successful?  I know network marketers that work very hard but aren’t successful.  After 18 months in the MLM network marketing industry and studying what the leaders of MLM companies are doing, it is crystal clear to me why some have MLM success and others don’t.  The ones having MLM success, the leaders, all have VISION and a strong, emotionally compelling WHY.

I’ve been following the MLM training of Mike Dillard, Cedrick Harris, David Wood, Jim Rohn, Mike Dlouhy and many others who have achieved MLM success.  I’ve also followed the training of personal development leaders like Brian Tracy and Bill Bartman.  All of these highly successful leaders, and many others, agree UNEQUIVOCALLY that you need a clear VISION and a strong, emotionally compelling WHY to be successful.

If you have any experience in MLM network marketing, you’ve heard it said that your WHY is more important than your HOW.  Well, this is part of the equation.  You do need a strong, emotionally compelling WHY.  But, you also need VISION.  You need to clearly identify what success looks like to you.  And you need to write it down and look at it DAILY.

At first blush it seems simple, right?  Here’s the challenge…DO IT!    Think about what success looks like to you.  When you start squirming in your seat because you feel uncomfortable that you can’t come up with a quick answer, don’t go to the refrigerator and get something to eat.  Fight through the discomfort.  Sit there as long as it takes and figure it out.  This is the REAL work.  This is where you begin to succeed in life.  By fighting through the discomfort. Stop reading this right now and pull out a pen and paper.  Write down your vision.

Okay.  How’d you do?  If you didn’t do it, you can skip all the other MLM training, tips, tricks and tools you’ve learned and continue to look for.  If you don’t have vision, you won’t achieve MLM success.  If you did it, CONGRATULATIONS.  Now you can go on to the next step and identify your WHY.

The vision I have for my MLM business is to smash the long standing statistic.  You know the one-the “only 10% of network marketers are successful” statistic.  It may be even less than that, depending on the source of the information.  But my vision is clear and it is in writing.  My WHY is quite simple.  I am 39 and I want to be a stay at home mom.  Being able to raise a child has been a dream of mine for four years and I am on my way to achieving that dream.  Everything that has happened in my life since that defining moment has brought me closer to realizing that dream.  I challenge you to follow your dreams.

Once you have established your vision and identified your why, you will need a system that will generate quality leads and train your down line. This is an essential tool for your MLM business.  A comprehensive MLM lead generation system will get you on your way to great success with any network marketing company.
