Design your life: Begin your network marketing business with the end in mind

Get a clean sheet of paper.

Get a pen or pencil.

As you plan and contemplate on your Core 8 network marketing business, it is worthwhile to begin with the end in mind.

This will take only about 30 minutes to 1 hour to accomplish, depending on your level of interest, enthusiasm and participation.

Do this only if you're willing to spend such a small amount of time of planning for the purpose of fulfilling your dreams (dreams that will even consume more of your hours, days, weeks, months, and years before you make them a reality). How's that?


Write your answers to these questions:

Ooops, where's that paper? You really have to get one (and your pen of course).

It's a simple instruction, if you can't do it, I'm sure it will be harder for you to answer the following questions and write them on paper... or even achieve your dreams that require more complex actions and more participation on your part.

So you have the pen and paper with you now. And you want to succeed because even now you are already making your dreams a reality, right? And that you believe you deserve to achieve your goals in life, right?

Go ahead and write your answers to these questions:


1. How much do I want to earn in doing this network marketing business? ______ (Be specific as to how much per month/per year.) Put a square around it.

On the succeeding blanks, write again your target earnings, the one you answered in question nr 1. i.e. 120 million pesos per year.
Then continue answering the given question.

2. What will I buy after earning _______? You can enumerate them one by one or even put them in your dreamboard/visionboard.
3. What did I become after earning _______? (i.e. not a person with more enemies but a person with more friends, a responsible member of the society, trust-worthy, honest, helpful, happy, fulfilled, etc.)
4. What did I learn after earning _______?
5. Why do I want to earn _______? (the deeper the reasons, the better)
6. Who will I help when I have _______ and how much am I willing to share? (family, kids, friends, the poor, the homeless, etc.; 10%? 15%? 20%?)
7. How much time, weeks, months, years did I consume before earning _______?
8. Where will I be when I earn _______?
9. Who will I be with when I earn _______?
10. When did I start this business?
11. How many times did I pray for what I have and what I want (_______)? (in a day, in a week, in a month) Am I grateful for what I already have right now? How thankful am I? Am I feeling abundant right now?
12. What books have I read when I earned _______?
13. What seminars and workshops have I attended?
14. Who did I listen to? How many new friends did I make as I work on my _______?
15. What financial management skills did I learn?
16. How many hours per week did I devote for my business (part-time/full-time)
17. What audio books did I listen to?
18. What skills did I master? (i.e. reading skills, listening skills, comprehension skills, presentation skills, communicating skills, negotiation skills, closing skills, sponsoring skills, inviting skills, etc.)
19. Who are the people that I helped in the process of attaining my _______? Did I become a better person?
20. I know I can and I know that I should do them all, but am I really willing to pay the price and do all of the above to achieve _______? To go out of my comfort zone and conquer my fear zone?

If you answered all of the questions honestly and really wrote them on paper, and if you answered yes to both questions of nr. 20, you're already a Success! Congratulations! Continue living a remarkable life!

P.S.
Review your answers on a daily basis.
Reflect and see what activities you did today that pushed you closer to your goals.
Reflect and think of what else have you done to push you closer to your goals if you were to live this day over again.

At the end, it's all about living a good and abundant life.

So use your money righteously as one instrument in living a good life, a way of expressing God's love to His wonderful creation, and for being thankful that God created you to enjoy and experience life here on earth.

Happy Sunday!
