What's it Worth to OwnYour Life!



Read More: Mindset  |  Personal Development

What is it worth to you to be able to do "Whatever You Want, Whenever You Want, With Whom You Want?"  To be able to live your dream lifestyle without having to rely on anyone for your financial security.

People work 40 of 50 years, never make more than $2000 per month and not anywhere nearer to owning their life.  Yet when they get into a real network marketing opportunity, they last 1 month, 3 months or maybe a year and say, "it just is not working for me."

It turns out that there is real "work" in "Network Marketing.  It's not "Neteasy Marketing, or "Netgetrichquick Marketing."  It takes real honest to goodness work and effort, and work that is not always easy.  Well, neither is digging a ditch, or shoveling snow, for that matter.

If someone has never made more than $2000 per month, and all of a sudden says I want to make $5000 per month in my business, something has to change.

It is said, "to earn more, you must be more."  You are really where you want to be at this given moment.  The opportunity lies in "how can I get from where I am now, to where I would like to be?

Yet we now live in the "microwave" society.  We can barely wait for the popcorn to finish popping.  All the promise of Something for nothing.  Pay your money to get in, turn on the computer and watch all the money come rolling "effortlessly" into your bank account.

It is this kind of thinking that has caused so many to not stick around long enough to develop into the person that can commands the kind of income to set them financially free.  They are here today, and gone tomorrow, and they want you to do the work for them.  

So yes, if you truly want to "own your life," and you have chosen network marketing as the vehicle to take you there, be prepared to roll up your sleeves and get a little dirty.

Here is a little survey from Freedom Magazine "Do You Know Your Freedom Factor?"

1.  When would you like to be financially free?

    A.)  In one year
    B.)  In two years
    C.)  In five years
    D.)  In ten years

2.  How much money do you need monthly to be financially free?

    A)  $1,000  B)  $2,000  C)  $5,000  D)  $10,000 or more

Great!  What's your plan to receive this monthly income?

3.  Multiply your answer from Question #2 by 200.  This is the amount you need to invest at 6% interest to receive your desired           monthly income.

Great!  What's your plan to accumulate this money?

Your answer to Question #3 is your "Freedom Fator."  It is the amount of money you would have to invest in real estate, the bank or in the stock market etc. in order for you to become financially free.

Anouther Question I have to ask

If it takes 2 to 5 to 10 years to figure this out and be making 10,000 a month will it be worth it?  OH YEAH!!!!

Great words

You have raised some eye opening questions that everyone needs to think about in the coming new year and make plans to acheive results.

Owning your life

Those questions you ask are excellent but the vast majority of people have NO idea and NO concept of how to achieve their "financially free" designation.  You can take them under your wing, introduce them to your opportunity but then the plan has to be in place to get them there OR they will quit. 

There is a 1% conversion rate on the net.  So you will need to talk to 1000 people about your business to get 10.  So if you need 400 people actively working the business to attain $10,000 a month the multiplication needs to be worked out.   So in 2 years (24 months) divided by 400 = 16 or 17 people actively working per month.  To achieve that, on line, you would need to talk to 1600 or 1700 people each month about your business.  Now if that's the training (the internet) you are going to provide to your new sign up they should know if this is even possible or probable for them to do.

Jim Rohn teaches if you talk to 10 people face to face you will get one.  So again 400 people actively working the business divided by 24 months equals 16 or 17 people per month.  The conversion rate at the low end (as you will get more than 1 per 10 as you get better)  is 10 % so you would need to talk to 160 to 170 people (face to face) a month for 24 months to reach $10,000 a month.

And we haven't even touched in on the skills needed for retention !! We're just assuming they will all stay and continue to work.

Owning your life by starting a network marketing business means you have to look at and present realistic figures so they can make a "business" decision and then you can work on the plan to get you and them there. 

Too many people fail for lack of professional training on the business aspects of network marketing.  When you've got that under your belt then you can truly help people attain their dreams and goals. 

To your success,
