It Doesn't have to be a Struggle

Now this is going to be painful, but I am going to say it anyway.

95% of you won’t make it in Network Marketing!

There I said it.

Why can I be so confident in that number?   Being an MLMer or Network Marketer means making a commitment to never quitting.  All too often many of you will quit right on the verge of you about to break into the marketplace and earn your first serious income.

Here are some things your upline won’t tell you.

a) Marketing to your warm list will not get you the income you wished for, in fact you may have less friends because of this.  Pestering your friends and family will also get you blacklisted from gatherings and parties.

b) Posters and fliers do work, but you have to do thousands of them, this involves alot of time and effort and money to get the fliers printed.  Valuable time where you could be doing more in your business rather than being out on the road delivering leaflets or posters is unacceptable.  Hmmm, Didn’t you want to work from home to have more time with the kids??

c) Advertising on google is not the same as it used to be. Heard of the ‘Google Slap?’  Many seasoned entrepreneurs have been wiped off the leaderboards because of being ‘slapped’ by Google. So how do you build up your business with ‘quick online leads?’

More questions than answers huh!

There is another way to build you business online, one that a growing community of networkers are discovering.  The market keeps changing at a pace of knots, and those in the know are the ones making a killing right now online. So how do you connect with those that know what’s working and what’s not? Complete the form to the side and you will soon be in the know….

To your continued success!

Drown Out The Noise

By Colette Morris · Comments (1)

Is Your Mind Too Noisy?

Do you find sometimes you have too much going on in your head?  The noise can get quite deafening. Many a times it leads to illness, lack of sleep, short temper,  inertia and so one.  Inevitably you end up simply not doing anything.

So, what can you do to stop the noise in your head? What can you do to relieve the stresses and strains of too much happening around you? Here are a few ideas which have in the past helped me, and even now I use these to help me focus and get through the noise.

Having too much going on in your head can lead to lack of productivity, which is not good for your creativity or your home business.  After all being productive is key to seeing results. So how do you drown out the noise and get your mind to focus.

Well there are a number of methods you could try, I find meditating  or listening to calming music or a self development CD  helps to drown out the noise and gets me focused.  Everyone is different so try and find something that works for you.

To keep focused write down a plan of daily action, I usually find first thing in the morning is a good time to do this. Write out those that were not carried out the day before you need to review to see if they are still required to be carried out.

Keep a note book handy so that you are prepared to quickly capture those one off thoughts. Or if you are like me, record your ideas onto either a mobile phone or a dictaphone as they pop into your head.  Nothing is worse than having an idea and not capturing it for later use.  We must over a billion ideas in the day, and if we only captured a small percentage of those ideas who knows what may come out of them.  Many an entrepreneur or inventor has lost out to others because they had a thought or idea, but did not capture it and so therefore were not able to follow through to take action.

I don’t know about you, but when there is too much going on I find I just STOP take a step back, slow things down and take positive action. How do you manage the noises in your head?  Share what works for you by leaving me a comment below.

To your success

To be successful in anything in life you have to be accountable. You have to be answerable to you.  With accountability comes integrity which are closely connected.

Richard Branson in his book ‘Screw it Let’s Do it!’ talks about the responsibility of success being down to your ultimate ‘why’ or goal, and then having the guts to go out there and achieve it.   If you make yourself accountable you command respect, integrity and trust.  All key components on being accountable.

When things go wrong, do you tend to blame others or circumstances around you?  Then being accountable is not high on your list right now.  You have to get over the fact that at times, things are going to not always go your way, but being accountable means taking the flack when things go wrong, it means the buck stops with you, having a no blame culture , being able to look at the situation and working out a way in which you can get around the obstacle or issue with a positive attitude.

Being accountable means being a leader, someone who people look up to, who is in a position to help others without thought or benefit to themselves.  It’s about being responsible for your actions, and not putting blame on others or circumstances.

Putting your personal development to the fore also helps with building up your character and your accountability. Personal development identifies where your strengths and weaknesses are as a leader.  There are so many books, courses, dvd’s out there than can help you grow in your personal development.  There is nothing more important than changing your mindset from where you are now, and developing a mindset of where you want to be.  People around you will notice a difference, they will see that you are on a higher level especially if they are not into personal development themselves.

Below is a short video I put together describing what accountability means to me.  I hope you find this information useful.  Let me know your thoughts and leave me a comment below.

To Your Success

And finally the Green’s.

Green Personality Traits

Cool laid back relaxed and patient best describes the personality traits of the Green. They are easy to get along with and very informal in their approach.  They are social and focus on relationships so can come across as emotional.  They are much slower paced in their thinking and are very democratic people.  They are very understanding, and agreeable.  They say yes, but mean no?  The green is the go between for the Red’s and Yellow’s who are much faster paced.  They act as the facilitator to conflicts.

Things Green’s Don’t Like:

Don’t be pushy or put them on a spot, Green’s absolutely hate this.  Don’t try and dominate the discussion or rush things and they do not like when you decide for them so try to avoid this.  Don’t be abrupt, explain in full and do not make wild claims or demands. They can also tell if you are insincere, so try not to be.

How to interact with a Green Personality:

Be friendly and show genuine interest in them, chat before going into business.  It is important to develop trust first, be informal and non threatening.  However, be alert for non verbal signs of concern, remember they say yes but mean no, but their body language will alay this. If you notice any non verbal signs of concern, uncover their needs with open questions.  Allow them to weigh things up for themselves.

Here is a short video explaining a little more about Green people…

Finally…

Know you have a synopsis of all the colours, they can be useful if you can work out who in your team is a particular colour, you will now know how to get the best out of them and what to do not to get their backs up.  We all have a mix of these colors in us, but one particular color may stand out more than most, this is known as your dominant colour and is more your true personality. I hope you find this information of benefit, Can you identify your colour?  Let me know by leaving me a comment.

Blues Love to Analyse Info / Details

Blue Personality Traits

Blues are deep thinkers, analytical in nature, very detail focused and formal in their thinking. They can come across as being aloof, but are deliberate in their approach and systematic, precise and pays attention to detail. They like things in their place, and are very organised with good time management skills. They are sticklers for time and are capable of coming to their own conclusions without having examples of others pushed at them. They take their time in their thinking and are much slower paced than the reds or yellows. Blues can come across as perfectionists due to their logical, systematic, precise and deliberate approach to problems or solutions. Blues like to have all the facts, and then logically put together an answer that is suitable.

Things Blue’s Don’t Like:

Don’t come across as disorganised with a Blue as they are very tidy. Try not to be late as they are sticklers for time keeping. Try not to be flippant or pushy with them. They don’t like vagueness so make sure you have lots of detail and be prepared to have lots of questions thrown at you. Don’t use testimonials or exaggerate claims as they do not fall for this, they are more facts and figures orientated. Don’t be too emotional as they cannot handle emotions.

How to interact with a Blue Personality:

Be well prepared when dealing with a Blue personality, get into detail as they love to get all the facts in their mind. Be factual, specific and logical with your approach. Listening is important to a Blue so listen carefully to what they have to say, as they verbalise their thoughts through questioning thoroughly. Give them time to respond as they are slower paced thinkers. Be formal in your approach as they are very business like.

Are you A Party Animal?

Hi Colette back here again, yesterday we looked at the Get Go’s the REDS, and today we are going to look at the party animal of all the colours…

Yellow Personality Traits

Yellows are the life and soul of the party, they are sociable, expressive, very imaginative and enthusiastic with it.  Yellow’s are very informal, very optimistic and animated.  Their Imaginations can sometimes run away with them as they are very fast paced thinkers.  Yellows are very relationship focused and are visionaries with obvious high energy.

Things Yellow’s Don’t Like:

Yellow’s don’t like it when you suppress their opinions or get into intricate details.  They are social animals and don’t like it when you are too impersonal, business-like or task orientated, you need to weave this into the conversation. Don’t try and inhibit their creativity, or appear aloof or detached.

How to interact with a Yellow Personality:

Key to interacting with a yellow it so socialise before mentioning any business.  To get into their good books talk about options and other people.  Be enthusiastic and energetic when conveying your ideas over to them and be fast paced in delivering them.  Offer your ideas and importantly use humour when doing so being sociable  and acknowledge their input.

If you think you are a YELLOW , leave me a comment and let me know why?

Here’s a short video with more about the yellows.

What Colour Are You?

By Colette Morris · Comments (3)

Red's are strong leaders

Our personalities can be divided into colours.  Each colour has particular traits, and it is important for you to understand these traits. Not only will it help you to psychologically understand the person better, but it will aid how you interact with them also.  If you know how to get the best out of a person, you will see great results, and better still if you recognise what colour YOU are, you are able to advise people how to get the best out of you, your likes and dislikes, your strengths and your weaknesses.

RED Personality Traits

They are strong leaders, fast paced thinkers, risk takers, purposeful, drivers, strong-willed, less patient, obvious energy, formal overtly competitive, rational.  You may recognise many of the qualities of the REDS are in many leaders as they take ownership, need to be fast paced in their thinking, take risks and be purposeful and confident with it.

Things Red’s Don’t Like:

Don’t’ waffle,  remember, they are less patient and what ever you do, don’t be vague or ramble on. They value time, so again don’t waste their time, don’t get too personal as REDS just like to stick to business, don’t stray from purpose, these personality types are focussed in their thinking, and don’t ask irrelevant questions, they get impatient and it does not fit in with their rational thinking patterns.  Lastly don’t try to take control, REDS are natural leaders and like to feel they are in control.

How to interact with a RED Personality:

Do get to business quickly, when interacting with a RED be succinct and precise, give them facts, and avoid the detail, talk to them about results and outcomes, they need to hear this to make quick decisions.  Use their time efficiently, they are fast paced thinkers and tend to move quickly in their thoughts, great people to bounce ideas off,  be confident when you talk to a red.


More colours coming up tomorrow, check back in to see if you are a BLUE, YELLOW or GREEN

To you success
