Are You a Puffed Up Network Marketer?

Education = Power … on the contrary.

The only time “education” can equal “power” is if you apply what you learn and master it. You can read all the books, take all the courses, listen to all the audios, watch all the videos and go to all the webinars and teleconference calls you’d like, but that makes you nothing but educated if you don’t apply it.

Education without application equals a puffed up network marketer with no experience and most possibly with a little bit of an ego issue.

Now you may be saying, “Ego, Lisa? I don’t think so. I learn as much as I can and have become pretty knowledgeable but that doesn’t mean I have a self-image problem.”

If you don’t fall into the “Ego” sense of self then it’s the “Procrastinator” fact.

People reading this might think I’m being a little abrasive or maybe even assuming too much. First, if you are taking this personal then it may apply to you.

You’ll earn no money or build relationships just by being well-informed.

Network Marketing has to be a belief.

You need to accept by the mind that network marketing is real and something that will be effective, a principle that you accept as true. A firm and considered belief that it works and works well.

Once you “believe” network marketing and Internet marketing will work, everything you’ve learned and continue to learn will come true.

If you’re still a skeptic, then get out now. You’re just wasting your time. Focus on your day job and keep educating yourself until nothing happens.

If you’re a skeptic, my best advice is to approach network marketing from a scientific point of view. Take the education you’ve learned and its principles = proceed in a systematic way to prove that it’s true or not true by “applying” what you’ve learned.

What works is the way you should be marketing. Network marketing isn’t going to work well if you don’t market appropriately. Internet marketing by way of attraction marketing does work. It’s the only way marketing online will work effectively.

Become a scientist Internet marketer for a while – apply your education to prove it wrong or right.

Here is where you’re belief will kick in. Once you start seeing results that are satisfactory to you, you will become someone who believes. At that point, the sky is the limit.

Network marketing is our tool to a financially free future. Consider it your stepping stone to something bigger and better.

Internet marketing is our main tool to make that happen.

Quit relying on your upline, downline or sideline to make you money or do the work for you. It’s your turn to make it happen with their support.

If you aren’t ready to apply what you learn, then quit bugging people. It’s only when you are making strides forward with action that people are going to be more than willing to take time out for you.

It’s not about the money at this point, it’s about time. People who have gone before you, spent the money, spent the TIME to educate and apply themselves aren’t so willing to just do the work for you. Yet they are more than willing to work side-by-side with someone who is like minded and is doing the same thing they have.

If you don’t do the work, don’t bother others. People will get insulted that you aren’t willing to put into action what you are trying to learn.

Tip: If you’ve purchased educational material, take it a step at a time and break it down. Apply one step and see if that works out. Once you get results, move on to the next step and beyond.

So get out there, quit training all the time and do something with the information you have. Once you start seeing results in that area of Internet marketing, then go back and pick up your book, e-course, or whatever it is and learn more – then APPLY it.

Keep up this way of life and in less than one year – trust me – you are going to be very proud, more humble, truly more knowledgeable and worth more to others because you’ve actually put into action and have proof that it works.

Education + Application = Power
