Life...Yes life can get in the way of our Dreams and Goals. The MonaVie Convention was great. I loved being with the team, all in our yellow shirts. It was something Dallen Larson said that made me take a step back. He said " If your family life is not in order your business is not going to prosper" My wife and I have not been on the same page when it comes to the business. I work the business hard but basically with out her. I thought thats what she wanted. It came to a head at Convention. I didn't spend any time with her. I was busy with everyone else. It took all last week to work out our challenge, talking , yelling , crying, praying, and talking some more. At one point I was ready to through in the towel. I did not want to build this business and be divorced at the end. We are now on the same page. Working together, and I am treating her like my newest sign up. " you know what I mean"

To start the week out we went to the Sacramento Home show. We met 5 people that we added to our list. " The word is OUR" ha ha...I'm learning. Yesterday I added 2 to my list, and made my calls.

Yesterday, I hit my daily goal for the first time this year. My daily goal is to 1) Add one name to my list 2) Call 5 people on my list and 3) Do a 1on1, tasting, or go to a Open every day. After I got to the Starbucks "2 hrs early" I started making some calls, Thought maybe I would meet someone. A lady sat down next to me. She had red hair. I commented on the color and how nice it was. She thanked me. We started talking. I told her my wife and I owned a hair salon, asked what she did. using " FORM'". I gave her my card, and asked if she had ever heard of Monavie. She said no. Just as I was going to ask for her number, her date showed up. So I went back to my calls. When he got up to get some coffee, I got her number. After a few minutes my prospect showed up, with his friend. After getting to know them a little I did a 1on1. They were very interested. The one prospect CJ has the potential to build a big business.

Today in a few hours 50 of us will be getting on a bus for the Monavie Convention in Anaheim. Its going to be a blast!!

Last night I went on a call with a lady in my business. Her prospect was eager to tell us all about his business. As I lessened, I found that we had something in common. We both like helping people. With that we talked about how Monavie had helped so many people that I personally know, along with myself. I have close friends that sell his product. and had used it before. I didn't want to get into a "mine is better than yours" pissing contest. But did find out that the highest income earner in his business makes about $400,000.00 year. not to bad, except our highest income earner makes around that a month! After we were done he agreed to take the bottle and try it for a week.

Something that everyone wants in Network Marketing is Momentum..The BIG MO.. I have come up with the 8 D's of momentum and I will share them with you. The first 4 D's are the things that can kill Momentum. 1) Distractions: Getting layed off from your job. Something brakes down. People want you to volunteer for everything. It is so important to stay focused. 2) Disappointments: You sponsor a new person and you think they are going to be a Rock Star, and they quit. You have to be able to say NEXT! and move on. 3) Doubts: Your not sure if you can do this, or if its really going to happen for you. 4) Division: Some one on your team decides they are going to do something else, and try and take your group with them. You and your spouse, or partner start fighting. Again lots of things come to mind. Now 4 D's that can help you. 1) Dream: You must have a BIG dream, so when stuff happens you keep going. 2) Dedication: To your team, spouse, and your Dream. 3) Determination: Working when you don't feel like it. Having a good work habit. Never Quit.. 4) Duplication: Your team will do 1/2 what you do. and 100% of what you do wrong. Must follow the system. Check with your upline before doing anything for the first time.

I did not hit my goal yesterday, I worked in the rain all day then took my wife out for her birthday. But the day before I met a guy in the hot tub at my gym. He had been in before, got layed off and got off auto ship. He said he would like to check out our team Thursday night.

Today is Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and I would like to shair something he wrote. "The size of your success is measured by the strength of your Desire; the size of your Dream; and how you handle disappointment along the way" I believe it all starts with a dream... This morning I am meeting a group of men. " We meet every Monday morning" and I will be speaking on Destiny.

I haven't blogged for a few days, but I have been working the business every day. Before I get up to speed on what has been going on in my life, I was thinking about something my daughter Melissa said the day after the Earth Quake in Haiti. I had not heard about it." I don"t watch the news" But she was telling me what happened, and wished we were at the level in our business that we could help them, with money, or going there and volunteering. I was thinking how awesome that would be to take off for a month and have the time and money to do that. When you get your FREEDOM it allows you the option to help in a big way.

The last time I blogged I had just sponsored number 90. I showed four plans last week personally, and did Two 1-1s for downline. One of the 1-1's was on Friday. I met with a Russian contractor that needs a sales person to run some granite and remodeling leads for him . At the end of the interview I had sold him 2 cases of Monavie, and he had never heard of it or tasted it before. When you believe in something so strongly people want it.

I have decieded to pick 10 people in my business and help them. How do I know who to help. I look for people that show up for everything. That want to build the business. I want to help 10 people get there FREEDOM!

Its important that you learn something every day. So I read, lesson to CD's, attending seminars and spending time with my mentor. Yes MENTOR. My mentor is Vincent St. Lewis. He has a vested interest in my business. He's also gone were I want to go. "Diamond" If your not growing, your dieing. Life has a way of dishing out negative. When I'm out talking to people, I want to be positive. Being positive is like being a magnet. People will be attracted to you.

Yesterday was a Great day! I did a 1-1 with a old customer from my other business, and her husband. My wife was also there, that helped a lot. After spending time with them talking about Family, Occupation, Recreation, I finally Monavie. "FORM"...They signed up ordered 2 cases and autoship. They were our 90th personal sign up. Yeha... Going Diamond!!
