Decisions and the Search for Perfection

Good choice, bad choice.
What does that really mean?

Many of us here have in the past searched for the Perfect network marketing company because we believed it would provide us with the solution to our job problem. We also searched for the Perfect compensation plan because that was, we believed, the key to solving our financial problems. We searched for the Perfect product/service so that selling would be easy, it would sell itself.

Along the way, we recognized the need to learn a thing or two, so we searched for the Perfect book or CD that would have the solution to our need for a system to make us rich. Or it may have been a self improvement system to motivate us to higher levels.

There's just one thing wrong with every one of these scenarios: our motivation for the search was founded on a flawed concept: We believed that something external would solve all our problems. We were looking for someone else to make it all better for us. As long as we continue to search based on that concept, we will never be successful.
Because we will never find the perfect network company, the perfect compensation plan, or the perfect product or service. A book or system will never solve our problems for us.

We will look at every opportunity out there and because it isn't perfect we move on. Or we try it for a while and then jump ship. We accumulate an entire library of books and CD's but we never improve.

I'm sure many of you are very familiar with a quote from Einstein that's used in cases like this: The definition of insanity is continuing to do the same thing and expecting a different result.

The real truth is there are many good network marketing companies with excellent compensation plans and great products and services. There are many wonderful and inspiring books and CD's. But these are merely tools for our use.

So long as we look outside ourselves for someone else or something else to solve all our problems, we will never be successful.

It is only when we make the decision to be successful that we will achieve success. It really doesn't matter which company we are with, or what the compensation plan is, or what the product or service is. When we decide to be successful, we will make every one of the tools at our disposal be part of our success.

Of course, some company, comp-plan, product/service combinations are a better fit for our own vision, personality and work style, but in and of themselves are not where the real decision lies.

The real decision lies within ourselves.

Here's something to post on your wall of inspiration:
There are no good or bad decisions, only the decisions we decide to make successful.

Live well.
