			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I need to come back to this list that I posted in December because I NEED TO READ IT OUT LOUD and BELIEVE IT and I WANT YOU to BELIEVE IN YOURSELF, TOO!<span id="more-435"></span></p>
<p>Here is a list that will get you started thinking about what You Need to be<br />
Successful in Your Business in 2011:<br />
1. You MUST BELIEVE that YOU DESERVE SUCCESS.<br />
2. You MUST BE CONFIDENT that FULFILLING YOUR PURPOSE in life<br />
WILL CREATE SUCCESS.<br />
3. You MUST HAVE A MASTERMIND of like-minded people, a TEAM of<br />
SUCCESSFUL MENTORS.<br />
4. You MUST USE the Product, RECOMMEND the Product and SPONSOR.<br />
5. You MUST remain FOCUSED on the DAILY TASKS that build, even the<br />
menial, repetitive, Slight Edge, tasks that are Easy to Do and Easy Not to Do!<br />
6.  You MUST be READY to RECEIVE SUCCESS.<br />
7.  You MUST have CLARITY &#8211; What DO YOU Want? What is YOUR WHY?</p>
<p>Do Not Sabotage Yourself by thinking that you do not deserve success!</p>
<p>Often times well meaning people in our lives tell us that good things will never happen for us. Maybe they don’t want to see us expect so much so that we will not be disappointed. However, if we don’t dream, it will never happen. If we expect poverty, that is what we will get. On the other side of the coin, if we expect prosperity, that is what we will get.  “We have not because we ask not,”  James says in the Bible, Or we “ask amiss,” seeking only our own pleasure not thinking of God’s plan or of others. We will be successful when we help enough others to be successful.</p>
<p>Most people have heard that ‘God Doesn’t Make Any Junk!’  God made us “in His Image” (Genesis), therefore we are deserving of An Abundant Life!</p>
<p>An Abundant Life does not mean that we will all be millionaires. Success is not being rich in an abundance of material things. In the Disney Movie, ‘The Happiest Millionaire’, the millionaire was a giving, caring man who was very happy with his life.   He was not a ‘Scrooge’, hoarding his wealth, but shared his wealth of advice as well as his time and resources.</p>
<p>Happiness is Success. You are successful when you are happy!</p>
<p>Happiness comes from within.</p>
<p>Can you look at yourself in the mirror and tell yourself that you love yourself?<br />
If you can, that is wonderful. If not, repeat it often until you believe it!</p>
<p>Find someone you can believe in and that believes in you.  We have a team that believes in each other and you may be a part of this team.  Everybody needs a home and to be accepted. Check out this e book and become a part of our team.  All it costs is your time.</p>

<p>To your success,</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I started the new year with the book on 21 Great Ways to Stop Procrastination and Get More Done in Less Time, called, Eat That Frog, by Brian Tracy. <span id="more-407"></span>Then I fought my old programming that didn’t want to give up, roll over and play dead. Maybe it was just teasing me into thinking I had conquered procrastination, but was just ‘playing possum.’  Nonetheless, I found myself in a battle for which voice of reasoning I was going to listen to!</p>
<p>I believe in everyone else, but when it comes to ME, I don’t have faith the size of a speck of dust.</p>
<p>I listened to a good friend and mentor of mine who said he would believe in me until I believed in myself and he had some great advice, “Keep the Positive Emotions in the forefront of your mind at all times and stop all negative emotions from entering.”</p>
<p>Positive Emotions                                    Negative Emotions<br />
1. Desire                                                            1. Fear<br />
2. Faith                                                               2. Jealousy<br />
3. Love                                                                   3. Hatred<br />
4. Sex                                                                     4. Revenge<br />
5. Enthusiasm                                 5. Greed<br />
6. Romance                                                        6. Superstition<br />
7. hope                                                              7. Anger<br />
8. Prosperity                                                      8. Lack</p>
<p>Find a ‘Perfect Day’ experience that you have had and go there in your mind to help you block out the negative influence around you that you can not walk away from.</p>
<p>He used the word picture of someone being sick, coughing or throwing up on you. You would not<br />
allow them to continue but would put something between them and yourself.</p>
<p>You can put something between them and yourself by going to your ‘Perfect Day’ in your mind.<br />
Then just smile and enjoy the memory without the ‘puke’ of negativity getting you down.</p>
<p>So, as we enter this uncharted territory of 2011, think about these words from another mentor of mine&#8230;</p>
<p>THIS IS YOUR LIFE.<br />
Do what you LOVE and do it OFTEN.<br />
If you don’t like something, CHANGE IT.<br />
If you don’t like your job, QUIT.<br />
If you don’t have enough time, QUIT WATCHING TV.<br />
If you are looking for the love of your life, STOP.<br />
They will be waiting for you when you START DOING THINGS YOU LOVE.<br />
STOP OVER ANALYZING. LIFE IS SIMPLE.<br />
All emotions are beautiful.<br />
When you eat, APPRECIATE EVERY LAST BITE.<br />
Open your MIND, ARMS, and HEART to New Things and People,<br />
We are united in our DIFFERENCES.<br />
Ask the NEXT PERSON you see what their PASSION is,<br />
and SHARE your INSPIRING DREAM with them.<br />
TRAVEL OFTEN; getting lost will help you FIND YOURSELF.<br />
Some OPPORTUNITIES only come once, SEIZE THEM.<br />
Life is about the PEOPLE you meet and the things you CREATE WITH THEM.<br />
So go out and START CREATING.<br />
LIVE YOUR DREAM AND WEAR YOUR PASSION.<br />
LIFE IS SHORT.</p>
<p>Inspiration Zone by Art Jonak</p>
<p>Live in the PRESENT for that is all you have the ability to do anything about.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Decision&#8217;s can be hard to make but when one begins to<br />
become a critical thinker it seems to come automatically.<br />
I like the way that Napolean Hill puts it in his book &#8220;Think and Grow Rich.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;You have a brain and mind of your own. USE IT and<br />
reach your own decisions.&#8221; He goes on to say that if<br />
you need help making a decision, do it quietly and with<br />
out disclosing your purpose, keeping in mind the fact<br />
that every person with whom you associate is, like<br />
yourself, seeking the opportunity to accumulate money.</p>
<p>If you talk about your plans too freely, you may be<br />
surprised when you learn that some other person has<br />
beaten you to your goal by PUTTING INTO ACTION<br />
AHEAD OF YOU, the plans of which you talked unwisely.</p>
<p>Our family&#8217;s and friend&#8217;s can be our biggest downfall if we<br />
dont listen to Hill&#8217;s words. Hill tells us &#8220;Keep your eyes<br />
and ears wide open—and your mouth CLOSED, if you wish<br />
to acquire the habit of prompt DECISION.</p>
<p>Those who talk too much do little else. If you talk more<br />
than you listen, you not only deprive yourself of many<br />
opportunities to accumulate useful knowledge, but you<br />
also disclose your PLANS and PURPOSES to people<br />
who will take great delight in defeating you, because they<br />
envy you.</p>
<p>Mr.  Hill also tells us &#8220;Let one of your first decisions be to<br />
KEEP A CLOSED MOUTH AND OPEN EARS AND EYES.&#8221;</p>
<p>I am a blue and this was a biggie for me as I love to talk,<br />
but I have become a better listener. Hill also tells us to<br />
“TELL THE WORLD WHAT YOU INTEND TO DO, BUT<br />
FIRST SHOW IT.”</p>
<p>This is the equivalent of saying that “deeds, and not words,<br />
are what count most.” Like our forefathers whom put their<br />
lives on the line for the decision to become an Independent<br />
nation, we too need to make some decisions that our family&#8217;s<br />
and friends may not like, but they too will envy my success.</p>
<p>Going through this book has helped me to slow down and<br />
take note of the world around me. I have learned so much<br />
in such a short time my head is still spinning. I have<br />
learned to apply the rules as I learn them through my<br />
Mastermind Group.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When this amazing master mind group was presented to me i didn&#8217;t even know what a master mind group was! Even though I didn&#8217;t know much about it I knew it was the answer to the prayers I had been sending up several times a day everyday.</p>
<p>I asked God to bring people in my life that believed in Him, people that would aid me in finding what I was missing. See I was going to church and reading the Bible and was still depressed I could feel myself spiraling further and further. When I attended church I still felt very strong that I was missing something, what I had no clue.</p>
<p>So I prayed and prayed to find &#8220;it&#8221; to know soon as it was in front of me that what ever &#8220;it&#8221; is, is what &#8220;He&#8221; was telling me was missing. It was amazing for me the first time my Mother showed me a video about DNA and the &#8220;ether&#8221; I knew with out a doubt in my mind that what they were sharing was real. My mind took over and was like watching a movie reel comparing what I was learning to what I know about the bible. Then she brought me on the 30-Day Mental Cleanse call, which is The Key to success. When I heard Micheal Doulhy talk I got so excited, I said to my Mother &#8220;This is it this is what I have been asking God for!!!&#8221; I felt &#8220;IT&#8221; I knew that what he was sharing was the truth I could feel it deep where it counts.</p>
<p>This blog is a mile stone in my journey, with this I over came one of the&#8221;fear&#8221; road blocks on my path of success. Join me in my journey of self development, success in network marketing, and life!</p>
<p>Thank you to my brilliant mentors I love all of you!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Once again, the brevity of life has reminded me that I must be passionately seeking to attain my goals while I am able.</p>
<p>Last Wednesday night, the youngest of four children, an 18 year old, college freshman, collapsed and died while running on a high school track. He was a leader in the making, tackling engineering problems that his classmates had no idea how to solve. He was a friend of our son, who is close to the same age.  We also know his family and attended his funeral on Saturday.</p>
<p>So much potential, we don’t understand why it happens, especially when it is someone we know, but it prods us to do better and be leaders that show the way to others.</p>
<p>As an adult, we should know our purpose in life and pursue it passionately. We should be living in the present and giving 100% to achieving the goals to attain our purpose in life.</p>
<p>Remember the question, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”</p>
<p>It is so easy to change from one profession to another in the society today, that most people change many times during their lifetime, never finding fulfillment.</p>
<p>Don’t be discouraged if you don’t know your purpose. Most people don’t know their purpose.</p>
<p>How do you find it?  How do you know what you want to be when you grow up?</p>
<p>What did you dream about becoming when you were a child?  What do you feel so strongly about doing, that it brings tears to your eyes, or your heart beats faster when you talk about it?</p>
<p>What would you do if you knew that you would not fail and money was not an option?</p>
<p>Let me share the answer that Sharon Lechter and Greg Reid give in their book, THREE FEET FROM GOLD.</p>
<p>You already have the  talent and  ability to create great suc-<br />
cess in your life. The Success Equation will show you how:</p>
<p>[(P+T) x A x A) +F = Your Success Equation</p>
<p>Combine  Passion, something that makes your heart sing,<br />
with  Talent,  something  you  excel  in,  multiply  it  by  the<br />
right Association, successful people or organizations, and<br />
Action, concrete steps you can take toward your goal, and<br />
then add your  Faith, the unwavering belief in yourself, and<br />
you will have your own unique Success Equation.</p>
<p>If you don’t  already  have a  journal, get one.  Creating  your<br />
Success Equation can be your first entry.</p>
<p>PASSION</p>
<p>In your journal, take a page and make a list of  ten  things you<br />
are passionate about. Sharon’s might include x and y; Greg’s<br />
might include a and b.  What does your list include?  You may<br />
need to get  help from your  friends  and  family  (who support<br />
you!)  in coming up with things that really get you  excited  but<br />
you might consider irrelevant.</p>
<p>What are you passionate about?  What makes your heart sing?</p>
<p>Think  about the  times in your  life when  you  have  been  most<br />
fulfilled.  What were you doing?</p>
<p>TALENT</p>
<p>Now,  on another page,  make a  list of ten things you are really good at.</p>
<p>Are you a great communicator? Do you have a knack for numbers?</p>
<p>Can you cook or draw?</p>
<p>What do you excel in?  What are your talents?</p>
<p>Now,  ask a friend to  remove one item that least describes you from each list.</p>
<p>Repeat the process  with  several  friends,  either as a  group or<br />
individually,  until  you  have  one  item  remaining  on  each  list.</p>
<p>My passion is _______________________________________.</p>
<p>My talent is _________________________________________.</p>
<p>(to be continued&#8230;)</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t let your potential die.  Find your passion in life and pursue it!</p>
<p>Debbie</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“Ninety percent of new businesses fail the first year.</p>
<p>And 90% of the rest fail in the next 4 years.</p>
<p>THAT is tough.</p>
<p>You’re excited. You start. A thousand things go wrong.<br />
You want to quit a thousand times.</p>
<p>Most people just quit.</p>
<p>You need a strong enough reason to do it.<br />
Then if WHAT you’re doing doesn’t work,<br />
You’ll figure out some other way. But if<br />
You’re at all wishy-washy, you’re a goner.”</p>
<p>This quote from Michael Dlouhy’s book, Success in 10 Steps,<br />
explains why we need to find and fulfill our passion in life.<br />
That passion in your life will create a successful business.</p>
<p>So, why are you here (on earth, I mean)?</p>
<p>What do you enjoy doing so much that you can’t wait to get started in the morning?</p>
<p>God placed man on the earth initially to have fellowship with Him.<br />
It was a joy for Adam, Eve, and God to walk and talk together in<br />
‘the cool of the day’. We should have fellowship with our Creator.</p>
<p>We need to know what our purpose in life is. It will fulfill us so that we are overjoyed to work at accomplishing our purpose every day.</p>
<p>I don’t mean like the movie that shows someone who’s whole live<br />
builds to a climax of doing a great humanitarian deed and then<br />
passes on, though that may happen.</p>
<p>I am talking about day to day, burning, passionate, desires or dreams that become a reality because you pursue them with clear focus and purpose. Then you will be successful in your life, your business, etc.</p>
<p>First of all, you have to know WHAT you want.  What is YOUR dream, your PURPOSE,  YOUR PASSION IN LIFE?</p>
<p>Most people have been ‘programmed’ to think that once you reach adulthood, you are not supposed to dream anymore.   (Not in the daytime, anyway)</p>
<p>WHY NOT?</p>
<p>Do you want to be STUCK in your 9-5  J-O-B from now until you retire without enough retirement to live comfortably?</p>
<p>Take responsibility of your life and actions and achieve your dreams.</p>
<p>Dream, and DREAM BIG, the BIGGER, the Better!</p>
<p>In the book, Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill says,<br />
“Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.”</p>
<p>In the weeks to come, I will be sharing the steps that many<br />
successful entrepreneurs have taken.</p>
<p>Then you, too, will be able to&#8230;.</p>
<p>Find YOUR PASSION IN LIFE and BUILD YOUR BUSINESS.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In building a stable, profitable mlm organization, you must</p>
<p>1. have a tested and proven lead generation training system for your team to use immediately<br />
2. Expand your ability to coach your team to success with your system</p>
<p>The key element that can coach your team to success is you. You must know and understand your own WHY and focus on it every day. You should know exactly what motivates you or how will you will ever be able to find what motivates them?   If they don&#8217;t get their WHY hammered out in the beginning, they will sooner or later abandon their business.   They won&#8217;t be able to  keep their commitment, if they don&#8217;t understand why they are doing their daily work.</p>
<p>Reread the first chapter of Success in 10 Steps, if you are even the slightest  unclear about your WHY. You find at least 20 questions in that section to help you identify your motivation.</p>
<p>Not to mention &#8230; You will be much happier and better equipped to help others and lead them to their WHY, which will help you all achieve the desired objectives.  That&#8217;s what a Coach needs in order to be great.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-154" title="tt0131202" src="http://thementoringmom.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/tt0131202.jpg" alt="tt0131202" width="120" height="168" />So you’ve found yourself a coach or a mentor that is doing what you want to do.  You want to be able to accomplish what they have.  Now what?  How can you make sure you get the best out of your experience?</p>
<p>You need to make sure that you are coachable.</p>
<p>What does this mean?</p>
<p>When a person is coachable, they do 2 things consistently.  They do what the coach tells them to do without questioning it.  And the second thing is even more important than the first.  They ask for FEEDBACK!</p>
<p>We’ve all heard the saying, “There is always room for improvement.”  I believe that to be true.   Sometimes it only takes a little tiny tweek to make a huge improvement to the play.  Perhaps by starting on the left foot instead of the right can give a player a fraction of a second that could change a plays outcome.</p>
<p>When we listen to our coach and do what they tell us, and then follow up with asking for feedback then we are truly coachable.</p>
<p>Are you coachable?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In order for you to build a stable, profitable network marketing business, you must be able to offer your prospects a tested, proven lead generation &amp; training system and develop into a coach that can coach your team to victory in your system.</p>
<p>The most important element of being able to coach your recruits to victory is … you. You must have the same faith and belief and understand your WHY and focus on it daily.</p>
<p>You need to know exactly what motivates YOU.  If you don&#8217;t know for yourself, how will you ever be able to help your prospects figure out what motivates them?  And if they are not able to define their WHY, then sooner or later they’ll drift away .</p>
<p>They won&#8217;t be able to maintain their daily commitment if they can’t see exactly why they’re doing it.</p>
<p>Re-read Chapter 2 of <a href="http://hhakes.mentoringforfree.com/?mad=21570 " target="_blank"><strong><em>Success In 10 Steps</em></strong></a> if you’re at all stumped over your WHY. You’ll find at least 20 questions in that chapter to help you narrow your focus to find your very solid WHY.</p>
<p>Remember, everything you learn for yourself, you will be able to help others do the same.  After all that is the name of the game&#8230; duplication.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Happy New Year Everyone!</p>
<p>Have you been working on setting yourself and your network marketing organization up for a success 2009?</p>
<p>A new year is always a time for reflection, resolutions, goal setting and fresh starts.&nbsp;&nbsp; Setting a goal is much more useful to the network marketer than a making a New Years resolution.&nbsp; When you set a goal, one that will require you to stretch a little and you have a specific date to accomplish it.&nbsp; Even if you do not succeed in reaching that goal, you stretched, became more flexible and are now positioned that much closer to that goal.</p>
<p>I have a suggestion for you for a new goal. </p>
<p>Find yourself a Mentor/Coach for your network marketing business.<br />Here are a few things you may want to ask them or think about when choosing a mentor.</p>
<ol>
<li>Are they successful in building their network marketing business?</li>
<li>Find out exactly what they are doing that works.</li>
<li>Ask them if you can chat with some of their people in their organization and see how they are doing it.</li>
<li>Do they have a simple, proven system that is easy to learn and teach to others.</li>
<li>Find someone that will mentor you with no strings attached.&nbsp; (there should be no agenda on their part)</li>
<li>Are they willing to show you EVERYTHING or do they hide things?</li>
<li>What resources do they have available?</li>
<li>Do they have a functioning TEAM? or are they doing it all by themselves?&nbsp; (HINT:&nbsp; you can NOT do this alone&#8230; EVER)</li>
<li>What level of importance do they rate personal development?&nbsp; (should be pretty high on the list)</li>
<li>Can they introduce you to other leaders that can and are willing to help with no agenda?</li>
</ol>
<p>This is a simple goal and very doable.&nbsp; But if your not used to asking for help, it can be a stretch.&nbsp; </p>
<p>I can make it simple, download my ebook, Success in 10 Steps, written by Michael Dlouhy, and if you feel I can not be of some help to you, I will help you find a mentor who can and will.</p>
<p>Have a FANTASTIC Year full of Love and Abundance</p>
