The Tortoise and The Hare

I have been watching with interest lately all the posts from people wanting to build their business fast. This seems to come across as desperation. I believe the true question here is "do I recruit lots of people only to have them drop out 2 months later" or "do I build a business based on relationships where my downline stays with me for years?" I think we all know the story of the Tortoise and the Hare. People love to talk about themselves, their families, their struggles and achievements. If I focus on recruiting I will never know that John just had gall bladder surgery, or that Mary just got married. I will never know that David's son just graduated college or that Diane's daughter just got her first drivers license. In fact I will probably not even know the first names of the people in my business. I prefer to build my business slow and steady with no time agenda. So what if it takes me 5 years to build my business. I am still better off than I was 5 years ago. I have built a gamut of friendships, friends that I know and love. No more of this "gotta build it fast, no time to waste, let's go. let's go, let's go. Slow down and save yourself from a heart attack. Remember one thing, THE TORTOISE WON THE RACE.
