Network Marketing Journey

“The world is full of people that have stopped listening to themselves or have listened only their neighbors to learn what they ought to do, how they ought to behave, and what the values are they should be living for.” - Joseph Campbell
There are countless ways to find value. The value of Pi Π. The [...]

One of my favorite parts of my weekend is time spent with God and friends. For me, the simple act of gathering once a week Saturday night after work does wonders to rejuvenate me. This helps me a great deal but if I’m not addressing the underlying issues of fatigue and sabotage I’m trying to [...]

The people, places, events and feelings you focus on are one of the first three things you have control of in your life. We’ll talk about the values and taking action in the coming days but for now I’d like to talk about focus.
Focus is defined as ‘directed attention’ OR in the verbal sense [...]

Wow.
Time truly does fly when you’re having fun.
It seems like it was just yesterday that Phil Gerbyshak and I were having a conversation about how 2007 was going to be a fantastic year.

Everyone has their own methods but when I [...]

You’ll find me to be a very introspective and giving person. I enjoy sharing the things I learn, not only about business but about myself. One of the things I have learned is to appreciate beauty, both in the world and people around us. Pictures like this one create a feeling of peace and [...]

Those words have been repeated to me more times than I can count in my years of marketing. The number of people who are in network marketing who don’t want to, let alone knowing how to sell their product is astonishing.
I remember getting a call from a networker in the travel industry. He was telling [...]

Thoughts are things.
It took me awhile to really comprehend exactly what that meant for me and everyone else around me. Our thoughts shape our lives and can have an effect on the people around us in return.
I was reminded of this recently while watching a movie called Bulletproof Monk.
Near the beginning of the movie, Jade, [...]
