Daily Motivational Message #15

"Great minds have purposes, others have wishes.

Little minds are tamed and subdued by misfortune;

but great minds rise above them."

-Washington Irving

We at BN will be subjected to "misfortunes"... each one is a "shadow reality" of our business... embrace these and learn from them.  Most people are beaten down by misfortune... BUT SOME AREN'TThey use misfortunes as learning experiences and stepping-stones to success.

p.s.  By the way, misfortunes are not your fault, and anyone who tells you your misfortunes are the fault of

  • your terrible personality,
  • or your lousy work ethic,
  • or your inability to follow "the system"

is telling you lies!

fortuna

I think that everybody is the smith of his own fortune. You reach it if your suitable aim is found, if onto getting out of a step you do it what is the achievement of the aim requires.

Who's Fault Is It Really and Why?

The problems I have had in the past that my fault was, that I didn't read the Policy and Procedures Agreement as well as the Terms and Conditions. However, the old business model has been broken for a long time. It wasn't our fault because we listened to the people we thought to be in the knowing.
Now that my eyes have been opened, it helps me have restored hope for not just me but the Network Marketing and Home Based Business Industries. It is time for us to put a new face on Networking. Some companies just have to learn transparency as well as being open to the new age of Internet Marketing.
Thank you for being my Mentor Jenny!
