This was shared with me by a fellow Director in Thirty-One and I wanted to share it with all of you. The author is unknown, but the message is amazing, and very much echos my sentiment about the industry that has supported, encouraged and inspired me for the last 11 1/2 years:

One of the foundational teachings that I constantly am telling others is that they must plan their day, they must own a planner, and they must carry it with them at all times. Then, when someone makes an appointment with them, they have it with them (at all times) to be able to make note of the appointment immediately!
So, great in theory, but I have always had one tiny problem – I don’t like all of the planners out there! I’ve often debated about just designing and making my own planner to suit my needs (and that still . . . → Read More: Build Your Own Planner

As I was finishing up the power washing of my front deck the other day, I was thinking ahead to my next project – putting in a raised garden bed.
Time spent power washing is good for letting your mind wander, and contemplating life, so I was doing just that when it occurred to me that business is just like a garden!
In order to make my garden bed, I had to rototill the soil. This is much like preparing yourself for business. You need to get rid of limiting beliefs and fears that could hold you back from . . . → Read More: Your Business Is Like a Garden

In just about everything I do, I am for simplifying. I love decluttering, and reducing stress and chaos. I also aim for the same simplification in my business, and I am always looking for ways to streamline. This allows me to get more done in less time.
As you may know, the internet is full of wonderful information, and it can also be overwhelming, especially for people (like me) who use the internet to market their company, or generate leads for their network marketing business or direct sales business.
Let me ask you,

One of the most important things that you can do to ensure that you will have a successful business is to have consistency. Consistency in doing the basics of your business. Consistency in showing people a business presentation (for those in network marketing) every day, or doing a home show (for those in direct sales) at least once a week.
For myself, personally, since I have both a network marketing business and a direct sales business, I do both business presentations and home shows.
Each week I have a goal of doing one business presentation a day for my . . . → Read More: 31 Goals in 31 Days – Day 22 – Consistency
