We often hear how our thoughts are powerful and they are, but the words that we speak are even more powerful. Words are a "creative force". God spoke His creation into existence when He said: "Light be, and light was". You'll see this all through the book of Genesis…"God said" and it was. God has given us the power to change our circumstances through the words that we speak.
Your words have a greater power than your thoughts to change your circumstances. For example: My sister, a Certified Nurse's Aid, told me about a recent experience with one of her patients. Susie (not her real name) hurt all over and when my sister went to move her she became abusive. Instead of reacting back with harshness and insensitivity, my sister chose to speak kind and compassionate words. Immediately Susie's countenance changed and she told my sister that she was sorry. Susie became more cooperative and accepting of my sister's help. The words that my sister spoke created an environment of love and acceptance rather than one of anger and hostility.
You may be wondering what this has to do with your network marketing business. Well, think about it…if your words have the power to change your circumstances (just as they did for my sister), then they have the power to frame your business world. To be successful in all areas of your life it is important to grasp the truth of the power of your words. When you say words of doubt, worry, fear, etc. you set yourself up for failure. When you speak words of confidence, trust, belief in yourself, you set up a structure for success.
There are three simple action steps that you can take to start to create success in your MLM business.
Step 1.) Write down 4 or 5 key words and/or phrases that you use regularly to describe yourself, others and certain situations in your life or business. Do you use words such as "I can't", "maybe", "I don't", "if only"? Can you see how your words limit the growth of your business?
Step 2.) Choose words and phrases such as "I am", I will", "I am confident", "I do believe"…words that are uplifting and bring increase and success to your business.
Step 3.) Become a part of a mastermind group where you will be lifted up and encouraged to keep focused on using uplifting words that will bring success to your network marketing business.
Remember, God has given you the power to change your circumstances through His "creative force", words. Just as my sister was able to change the mood of her patient by her words, you can also use the "creative force" of your words to transform your network marketing business into success.
Most network marketers who align themselves with a mastermind group discover the power of genuine team support. But some just keep on struggling trying to make it on their own.

Network Marketers: Do You Know What Your Prospect Wants?
Do you know what your prospect wants or are you like some network marketers…only interested in getting what you want?
The only thing that matters is what your prospect thinks, wants, wishes for, desires and needs. It is all about your prospect, not you. So start your relationship by listening, then you will know how to help them get what they want.
Your prospect wants a simple, proven, non-threatening marketing system that works: a system that generates high quality leads: provides a follow-up plan, and a first-rate sponsoring and training program. They want to know that there is a team of people who really cares and believes in them.
Your prospect expects you to be able to answer their questions or to guide them to the right source (hotlines, web pages, brochures, etc.) to answer any questions that you can't answer. It's not as important to know all the answers, as it is to know where to get the answers…this is where your team comes in.
Your key weapon in the battlefield of network marketing is your team. Most people want to belong to a team that manifests unselfishness in its purest form: genuine consideration for others.
"It's amazing how much can be accomplished
when no one cares who gets the credit."
——John Wooden

Network Marketers Addicted to a Smorgasbord of Opportunities
Are you one of the many network marketers who are addicted to a “smorgasbord” of MLM opportunities? Have you fallen into the trap of believing that you need multiple streams of income to only end up with multiple streams of outgo?
Michael Dlouhy, author of Success in 10 Steps, says…
“When you promote a smorgasbord of opportunities you undermine your network. When you try to appeal to everybody with your multiple streams of products and services, smart people will not take you seriously. And why should they? You have no identity in their mind.
Result?
No trust. No loyalty. No network.
Your people are easy targets for some narrowly focused networkers.
You waste your time searching for more opportunities to create your multiple streams.
But loss of focus = loss of power.”
How can you do justice to your MLM business if your attention is divided between two or more companies? When you divide your attention between two or more opportunities you set yourself up for failure. So isn’t it much better to choose the right opportunity and focus on just that one?
I encourage you to stop wasting your time on searching for more opportunities. Find just one "Five Pillars" MLM company that profits you and your family and put your full attention on building it…build it once… build it strong…so that it will stand the pressure of time and be there for your children.

Newsflash: Could This Happen to You?
This newsflash just came to my attention and I am shocked! This is an actual letter that was sent from the desk of the CEO of a network marketing company to its distributors on May 1, 2009. The name of the company is changed to protect the innocent. This is a must read for network marketers because it could happen to you.
Beginning of Newsflash
I would like to take a few moments to express my sincere and deep gratitude for your loyalty and support over the years. Company XYZ has always held and will continue to hold a large part of my heart.
Due to economic issues at this time, it has come to my realization that we are no longer able to offer the network marketing compensation model for our distributor family. It is with deep regret that I am announcing effective May 1, 2009 that we will suspend the enrollment of new distributors into our current compensation models and only pay commissions for any Fast Start Retail orders and/or distributor re-orders according to the existing compensation models of each respective company. All commissions for April 2009 (including Retail Fast Starts) will be processed by June 15, 2009 to allow for our generous return policy to process. Commissions for May 2009 will be processed by July 15, 2009 at our current compensation model of each existing company.
I realize that we need to take the lessons of this sour economy to heart and offer a true opportunity to any individual to earn a few hundred extra dollars or more per month on the simple philosophy of offering great products to individual consumers. Therefore, prior to June 1st 2009, I look forward to offering an opportunity to our current distributor base to continue marketing Company XYZ products through an affiliate/direct sales model that will pay one level of commission. This program is similar to the already successful distribution program through the Company XYZ retail compensation, but will allow us greater flexibility in meeting the financial decision needs of our consumer while allowing the continued financial gain of our distributor base.
I realize many of you may have questions and concerns, but please keep in mind that my goal is to keep you fully aware of any and all issues moving forward. I personally look forward to making our affiliate/direct sales program available to you on June 1st that allows any individual to earn income from the sale of products alone. Stay tuned for more information regarding that program.
Thank you for your patience and support.
End of Newsflash
I shouldn't be surprised because my friend and mentor, Michael Dlouhy, told me this happens often in the network marketing industry when Pillar No. 1 (Company Management with Integrity & MLM Experience) is missing. Do you see what has happened here? The dedicated distributors who worked to build a business with this network marketing company will no longer receive the residual income they worked so hard to create. The company on the other hand gets to keep all the customers that their loyal distributors introduced to them. This company's loyalty does not lie with the distributors. It's motto is "company first; distributors last." If, however, they had any sense of loyalty to their distributors, the ones who built their customer database, this would never happen.
How would you feel if you received this newsflash? Even better, how would you like to make sure this never happens to you? Yes, you can avoid this. How? By accepting the network marketing education and training that my team and I offer. This generic information can save you from receiving a newsflash like this.

Network Marketers Attitude Dictates Your Performance
Attitude is an inward feeling expressed through physical posture, either conscious or unconscious, especially while interacting with others. Your facial expression and body language often reveal how you feel inwardly.
Attitudes are contagious. Have you noticed what happens to you when you are in the presence of someone whose expression reveals a negative attitude? Does it create a negative feeling in you? It does for me. On the other hand when someone greets you with a smile do you experience a lift in your emotions? I know I do.
What is happening on the inside of you affects what is happening around you. A hardened attitude will cause you to have a closed mind and dim future: whereas a loving, serving attitude is conducive to growth and a hopeful future.
Can you see how your attitude dictates your performance in your network marketing business? Think about it...is your attitude working for you or against you?
I like the way John C. Maxwell sums up "what is an attitude?" in his book The Winning Attitude...
"It is the 'advance man' of our true selves.
Its roots are inward but its fruit is outward.
It is our best friend or our worst enemy.
It is more honest and more consistent than our words.
It is an outward look based on past experiences.
It is a thing which draws people to us or repels them.
It is never content until it is expressed.
It is the librarian of our past.
It is the speaker of your present.
It is the prophet of our future."
What is your performance indicator as a result of your attitude? Is your attitude pointing you in the direction of success or failure in your network marketing business?
If you want to get your attitude pointed towards success then I suggest you read Michael Dlouhy's free E-book Success in 10 Steps. Most network marketers who read Success in 10 Steps get so excited when they find out that their lack of success is not their fault and their performance indicator starts to soar to the top.
