This is a very serious and sensitive topic. And you should realize that this business, is not always about YOU.About your FOCUS, about your stand for leadership, about anything that you thought you are.
It’s also about your followers.
Some people join too many MLM companies. They argue their independent status and forget their interdependence with their company and fellow business partners. Your upline, your downline, your mentors, the company owner, and even your friends.
They are called JUNKIES.
Are you a MLM Junkie? Ito yung mga taong palipat lipat ng company.
They betray the trust of their uplines and the hopes of their downlines. In the end, they always end up worse than when they started because they lack FOCUS.
Like taking dangerous curves and stepping into quick sand, they sink deeper every time they keep moving until they can move no more.
Para itong pakikipag relasyon. Have you ever been into a relationship? Girlfriend? Boyfriend? Wherein you can break boundaries, your love conquers all. When you are together it’s like you are with the perfect person on the perfect time, everything seems so perfect. Until someone better comes along. Maganda ba ang Girlfriend/Wife mo? Gwapo ba ang Boyfriend/Husband mo? Malambing, maasikaso, masarap magluto, masipag lahat na ng magandang qualities nasa partner mo na.
Pero, meron kayang mas maganda or gwapo sa partner mo ngayon? YES of course, possible tayong maakit sa mas maalaga, mas maasikaso, mas masarap mag luto at mas magaling sa lahat ng aspeto kesa partner mo ngayon? At tao lang tayo, possible tayong ma hulog sa temptasyon, ng isang bagay na possibleng “MAS HIGIT” pa sa tinatamasa mo ngayon. These are the offers of temptation. Lahat ng pangit sa dati mo, possibleng wala na sa magiging BAGO mo.
So, I’m not saying na lahat tayo ganon okay, but lets think of it as a scenario. What is it like being with a new relationship? At first sympre masaya yan, everything will seems to be very perfect yet again for the 2nd time. Pero pano yung binuild nyong pinag samahan nung nauna? Sayang nman, and you will be faced with all new different set of experiences and risks.
And on the other hand there are people who values their integrity, and fights for what they firstly believed and is willing to face any challenges in life through thick or thin. Kahit mag Boyfriend or Girlfriend palang. Yes aware sila na may mga taong mas gaganda at gwagwapo sa kanilang partner ngayon, and they will not entertain it. And these are the qualities of a successful relationship. A good Quality of a Good Partner. Being LOYAL.
QUITTING CAN BE A HABIT.
The same thing din po, sa Business natin, when we engage on our business, our Network Marketing business. Of course we have the possibility to earn the INCOME THAT WE’VE NEVER IMAGINED. And we will fall in love with the business, we will be very grateful to the company, to the owner, to our uplines, to the opportunity. And we will be engaged with PEOPLE that we will bring in to this business, our DOWNLINES. We will be with them from the beginning until the present, aalagaan natin ang ating mga downlines, ispoonfeed natin ng information, tuturuan natin ng mga strategies and together you and your group, together you will face challenges, you will break boundaries, you will be together through thick and thin.. And you will overcome it TOGETHER! And you will try to reach Success together.
But is there a possibility na merong darating na MAS MAGANDANG COMPANY?? Mas maganda ang Compensation? Mas maganda ang Office? Mas maganda ang OFFER? Mas maganda ang Product? Mas maganda sa lahat ng aspeto ng company mo ngayon?? Wag po tayong magugulat pero ang sagot dyan ay: YES. Oo meron at meron talagang darating na mas maganda.
At tao lang po tayo, and I believe these temptations will not be given to us, if we can handle it easy. It’s similar to LIFE TRIALS, GOD won’t give us Trials that we can easily manage. Kaya nga tinawag na TEMPTATION, kasi nga Tempting. And yes sad to say, lahat po tayo ay possibleng maharap sa ganyang klaseng temptation. And it’s up to us if we will give in, or we will value the relationship that we built among our business partners for a long time.
Ask this question now. How would you feel? If your Upline left you? (Pssh okay lang, mas magaling pa nga ako sa upline ko eh) How about this? What would you feel if in the other hand. Yung company mo nman ang mang iwan sayo? One day gumising ka nlang, hindi kana maka login sa account mo? But the company is still there they just left you for whatever reason.. You will feel bad right? Ang sama siguro sa pakiramdam non. And that’s the idea of what your downlines will FEEL. Sa tuwing iiwanan mo sila.
There will be instances that even you keep on changing companies, some of your business partners will Follow your Lead. Kagaya mo, magpapa lipat lipat din sila ng company. Ito ang pina pakita nating image sa ating mga downlines, sa ating mga kasama sa negosyo. And that’s not a good kind of leadership, you are duplicating the wrong mindset to them. You are teaching them to be a JUNKIE like you. And if you fail, they will also fail.
Junkies always disappoint themselves because they are too impatient to allow events to take course and do not allow relationships a chance to grow. They have become professional victims – always complaining and critical of what is happening, never seeing the beauty of anything. They are always searching for greener pastures.
So this early, I want you to be aware and avoid the “junkie” trap. Check out the track record of junkies yourself! May nakita ka na ba na, TOP EARNER ng dalawang company? Yung tipong may Success Story sya dito sa isang company, tpos kasabay non, may success story din sya sa isang company? Yung tipong dalawa ang kotse nya yung isa may sticker ng isang company, yung isa naman ay may sticker din ng kabilang company? “WALANG GANON”. So why re-invent the wheel?
There has never been anyone significant among junkies in the network marketing profession. Do you know these people? Kilala mo ba itong mga taong ito? Is the person you see in the mirror like that? If you want to GROW, and grow in a significant way, then get out of the JUNKIE PRISON quick.
No commitments, no sacrifces;No action, no result;No growth, no progress;It’s an unending cycle of why not’s! FOCUS and you will achieve your goals much faster. Go for it all the way with the one company you have carefully chosen. Be-Single minded and you will have much less distraction.
- dont focus on money! Focus on people!
- Focus on productive activities
- Never focus on the things you cannot control. Instead focus your time, energy and effort on the things that you CAN control.
- Focus on the things you have. And not to the things you don’t have.
There are many things in life that we cannot control, such as traffic, weather, budgets, competitors, natural disasters, or what people think about us. What we can control are our own actions and attitudes.
You cannot chase two rabbits at the same time, neither you cannot serve two master at the same time. Either you will hate the other one and love the other. And you will always compare.
“In the long run men hit only what they aim at” – Henry David Thoreau
