What is your success worth to you? Is it worth reading your company's policies and procedures (P&P)? I've written about this before, but I think this is of the utmost importance so I'm bringing it up again. This can't be emphasized enough…READ, READ, READ your P&P. Many unsuspecting distributors have lost everything because they didn't read their policies and procedures. This should be the very first thing that you do when you join a company. If you haven't read your P&P, then do it now!
When you sign the company affiliate agreement you are signing a legal and binding document, so make sure you understand what you are agreeing to. In May 2009 a letter was sent out to unsuspecting distributors that the company was no longer offering the network marketing compensation model. You can read about it at Newsflash: Could This Happen to You?
Line item #5 of the company's Affiliate agreement reads:
The company "reserves the right to terminate this agreement, and all associated agreements (including, without limitation, the marketing incentive programs), upon 30 days written notice, with or without cause."
This statement would not be in the agreement if they didn't intend to use it. And they did use it. This is why it is so important that we as network marketing professionals read our company's policies and procedures.
Equip yourself with the truth and download Success in 10 Steps. Learn what to look for in the policy and procedures that may keep you from receiving your check and losing your business. The ebook is absolutely free! Most people who read it save themselves years of failure and frustration in their network marketing business. But some never take the time to read it and continue to struggle.

Which Network Marketer Are You?
There are two types of network marketers: those who believe that working two or more businesses at one time will result in "multiple streams of income" only to find themselves with multiple streams of outgo and those who know that being laser focused on one opportunity absolutely brings success. When you chase several MLM opportunities to create your "multiple streams of income" you lose your focus, thus you lose efficiency and power. Without laser focus your efforts are wasted.
Focused thinking brings clarity to your target. It helps you to know your goal, and to achieve it. Just as a good golfer needs to focus on a clear target, so must you as a network marketer focus on one specific MLM opportunity. When you work two or more opportunities you actually harm the development of your most profitable opportunity and your lack of focus soon turns to frustration. To quote John C. Maxwell, "No one achieves greatness by becoming a generalist."
Many people say they are making huge amounts of money working several programs at a time. This may be true, but the question is "how is it working for you?" So what would be easier: to keep spending money promoting a bunch of affiliate programs to find a few that work well for you or to be laser focused on one huge profit center?
When you put your entire focus on your money-making program you will absolutely inspire dedication and create a belief in your associates' minds that you are clear about your goal. People will actually start asking you to become part of your team.
Michael Dlouhy said, "The finer your focus, the more power YOU will develop, because you will be perceived as…and will become…an expert. The cream of the crop."

MLM Question: “What ad should I run?”
Most people in the MLM business get caught up in "What ad should I run?", but some network marketers know the key to success is not the ads they place. The key to MLM success is having a burning desire and belief in yourself.
Everybody knows that people are attracted to network marketers who have confidence in themselves and their belief in their products and/or services. They are the ones who have a steady stream of people coming to them for solutions to their problems. Their level of confidence sticks out and people naturally want to do business with them.
Your prospect wants to know that you will be there for them and that you truly care about their success. Your prospect needs to know that you are a part of a team that’s there for them when you are not available due to life’s emergencies. Your prospect must believe that you and your team can help them be successful in their business...that you truly want them to achieve their dreams. So YOU are actually the message, not the ads you run.
So your success is all about your belief in yourself!
I can guarantee you that you will never succeed in network marketing without developing your self-confidence and belief in yourself. Take action now and download our FREE e-book Success in 10 Steps. You will learn how you can increase your confidence level, thus increase your MLM business.

Add Significance
Most network marketers have the tendency to come off as pushy sales people, and offer people a dream without first building a relationship. They don't take the time to find out what their prospect's dream is before they start to promote their product or service.
As a professional network marketer your first commitment MUST be to your people, NOT to your personal gain. As a leader in the MLM industry it is essential for you to do everything you can to make your prospects and partners feel so valued and cared for that they will be loyal to you forever. Give them the personal attention and respect that they deserve.
You add significance to peoples lives by simply encouraging them to identify and act on their dreams...
“Moishe Rosen teaches a one-sentence mental exercise that is an effective tool in helping a person identify his dream. He asks a person to fill in the blanks:
If I had __________________________________,
I would ___________________________________.
The idea is that if you had anything you wanted – unlimited time, unlimited money, unlimited information, unlimited staff (all the resources you could ask for) – what would you do? Your answer to that question is your dream.
Everyone has heard the story of Isaac Newton’s discovery of the law of gravity after observing the fall of an apple. What few people know is that Edmund Halley, the astronomer who discovered Halley’s Comet, is almost single-handedly responsible for Newton’s theories becoming known. Halley challenged Newton to think through his original notions. He corrected Newton’s mathematical errors and prepared geometrical figures to support his work. Not only did he encourage Newton to write his great work, Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy, but he edited the work, supervised its publication, and financed its printing, even though Newton could easily afford the printing costs.
Halley encouraged Newton to act on his dream, and it added immeasurable significance to Newton’s life. Halley received little credit, but he must have gained satisfaction in knowing he had inspired revolutionary ideas in the advancement of scientific thought." Excerpt from Developing the Leaders Around You, by John C. Maxwell
Add significance today...ask someone to share their dream with you.

Are Buying Leads a Scam?
At Mentoring For Free we teach you how to think not what to think and the education process takes time and effort. Our team leaders have put together many trainings that explain why buying leads is a scam! Please do not take this information lightly. You could be putting your business and reputation in serious jeopardy by not knowing the truth.
It is against the law to send your product or service offer to an OPT-IN lead that you bought or were gifted as a bonus to join some company.
Do you understand this?
Maybe this will make it clearer to you…You cannot buy an OPT-IN lead of ANY kind from ANYONE and then turn around and send Your Offer to that lead because that person Never OPTED-IN for Your Offer; they Opted-IN for the Lead seller's offer. If You send Your Offer to them You are guilty of SPAM and You will be prosecuted under the Law that YOU broke."
Are you guilty of doing this?
My purpose here is to educate you so you don't fall for the lies of these sleazy lead brokers. Just think about it…why would a lead broker sell you a lead if they were any good? They wouldn't! They would use the lead to build their own home-based business to create a walk away monthly income.
If you are serious about avoiding the pitfalls of this industry and creating a successful future in MLM then Michael Dlouhy's e-book Success in 10 Steps is a must read! Most network marketers who read this e-book learn how to protect their reputation and MLM business, but some don't because they never take the time to read it.

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
Would you like to have a simple proven system that generates quality leads and provides a follow-up plan and a first-rate sponsoring and training program? Would you like to belong to a team with a spirit of genuine consideration for others?
If your answer is "yes" then download and read this FREE e-book Success in 10 Steps.

The Secret Income of Multi-Millionaires
There are two types of income in the world, but only one will give you the freedom to "own your life". The first type of income is linear income, trading your time for money. Most people work for a living. If they don't work they don't get paid. The school bus driver gets paid when he drives a bus. When his shift ends, he stops getting paid. A surgeon gets paid when she performs surgery, but when she goes home she doesn't get paid.
Now this just may open your eyes…even though the surgeon gets paid a lot more money than the bus driver, they are both in the same boat. They both are trading their time for money. They receive income when they work…that's linear income. When they stop working their income stops.
The second type of income is the secret income of multi-millionaires. It's a lot different than linear income. It's called "royalty income". It's also known as passive, recurring or residual income. "Royalty income" is the secret to creating true wealth.
Royalty income usually refers to regular payments you may receive if you have published a book or any creative work that remains in distribution. For example, Elvis Presley wrote numerous hit songs, and now his daughter Lisa Marie collects a "royalty check" from the record company when his songs are played on the radio or downloaded from iTunes. She doesn't have to write any hit songs because her father did the work right one time. That's "royalty income".
Now imagine if you had a million dollars in your savings account and you knew exactly how to invest your money without losing it all. You did the work right one time and today you'd collect a dividend check of $5,000 every month. Even after you quit your job you would still make money. That's "royalty income".
I don't know about you, but this gets me really excited. This is exactly the type of income that I want in my life. I could do what I want, when I want, and with whom I want. I could give more time and money to charities of my choice.
Now you may be thinking that you're not a writer or singer…you have no special talents like Elvis. Well there is good news for people like you and me with little talent. Yes, there is hope! There is another way to develop royalty income. It's called network marketing. You can learn step-by-step how to create "royalty income" from a few hundred dollars a month to well over $10,000 per month by downloading Michael Dlouhy's free e-book Success in 10 Steps.
Now you know the secret income of multi-millionaires and the good new is you can be one of them.

How Can You Create Team Staying Power?
Would it be okay if your network marketing team had "staying power"…the ability to keep working the business over a long period of time? What is it that keeps people going? My friend and mentor Michael Dlouhy says, "It's not goals. It's not money either. It's your WHY that will keep you going."
"My WHY"…my purpose is to sow seeds of love, patience, encouragement, faith, hope, trust and prosperity. I am here to love, encourage, and inspire others to live with passion: to give my time, money and knowledge to help others find their God given purpose so they can live their life with enthusiasm; to be an effective leader and help others become all they were created to be…fruitful, successful, profitable, rewarding, and rich!
My why is to be the best sister, friend, leader and mentor that I can possibly be: to love, serve, and spend quality time with my family, friends, and clients. I persistently seek truth, wisdom, counsel and knowledge so I can give sound instruction to others. My why is to make a positive impact on as many peoples lives as I can while I'm here on this earth.
Crafting Your Why
There are two types of people: those who know their purpose and live with passion, and those who don't know their purpose (their why) and continue to live in mediocrity.
What’s your Why? Everyone needs motivation to get up in the morning, and it has to be very strong. What motivates you? What makes you so happy that you get goose-bumps?
If you can’t close your eyes and clearly see your Why, then now is the time to get clarity.
Begin crafting your why by reflecting on the three major areas of your life…
Personal: What are your values, what is important to you, what do you cherish about your life, how do you want to be remembered?
Relationships: What type of friend, son, daughter, wife, husband, brother, sister, mother, father, aunt, uncle are you?
Freedom: What degree of freedom do you want and what will you do with your freedom?
To create your team "staying power" download Michael Dlouhy's free e-book Success in 10 Steps. Most people who download and read this e-book find out their lack of success in building a strong team with "staying power" is not their fault, but some just never take the time to read it and continue to struggle in building a successful business. When you read this e-book you will become a part of a mastermind group that will help you create team "staying power".

Pentacle Leadership – What Is It?
"If you're attempting to build a home business, you need solid Pentacle Leadership for success. Find a Mentor. You must have a mentor to be a mentor. You want a mastermind group of like-minded people who want YOU to succeed. You want up-line support available when you need it.
Pentacle Leadership means Michael mentoring Don, Don mentoring Irma, Irma mentoring Lidie, Lidie mentoring Diane and the people Diane will mentor is endless. THIS type of leadership creates your mastermind group.
Want to make a Million Dollars?
Mastermind with Millionaires!
If you want to make $30,000 a year, then mastermind with people who make $30,000 a year.
Consider this VERY carefully: For most people, their yearly income is the average of their 5 closest friends.
Do YOUR 5 closest friends have what you want? If not, why would you EVER listen to their opinions on business?
Say you want to invest in real estate. Would you ask the person who rents a home? Or the person with 27 homes, 16 townhouses, 2 farms, one in Oklahoma, one in Texas, and 27 commercial properties?
To build a business, why on earth would you listen to people who've never done it? You've got to evaluate who you take advice from.
Want success? Then you'd better get your action plan from successful people?"
This was taken directly from Success in 10 Steps - chapter one, by Michael Dlouhy.
Now you might be thinking "How do I develop this line of Pentacle Leadership?" Your first step is to download Success in 10 Steps e-book and plug into our Mentoring for Free mastermind group. Most people who read this e-book get excited because they found a mentor and mastermind group of like-minded people who want them to succeed. But some just never take the time to read it and continue to struggle because they listen to the opinion of those who have never built a successful network marketing business.

In the World of Network Marketing
A team is invaluable to the development of your strengths and skills to be successful in the world of network marketing. As professional network marketers and leaders, our primary responsibility is to help our team members discover and develop their particular talents. This means that we often must see and believe in others exceptional ability before they can believe in themselves. It is our responsibility to hold the image of excellence up to our teammates until they can see it for themselves.
In my network-marketing world I am a member of a team of people who understand that success is much more than prestige and financial wealth…people who want to make a difference in the world…to make a contribution that extends beyond themselves. It is not about each one individually, but the team as a whole and the power of a “master-mind” group. Each team member is able to create financial advantages when all are willing to lend their sincere support to the whole team in the spirit of harmony and cooperation.
What does your network-marketing world look like? Are you able to call anyone on your team for help, no matter up-line, down-line, or side-line? Does everyone on your team freely offer you advice and assistance to develop your abilities so you can be the leader you were created to be?
Now I ask you, would you like to be a part of a master mind team where each team member is willing to help you in whatever area you need help in, no matter what company you are with? If your answer is yes then all you have to do is download our free e-book Success in 10 Steps and of course read it. Most people who download and read this e-book find themselves swept on to success, but some just never take the time to read it and continue in the whirlwind of frustration.
Success in 10 Steps e-book is the key to understanding how you can put yourself in the best position for success in your network marketing business. It is the first step to belonging to a master-mind group whose only agenda is to help you become the leader you were created to be. And you don't even have to pay a dime to belong!

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.

To your success!

What is a Professional Network Marketer?
First let me explain to you what professional network marketers are not. They are not the "heavy hitters" who make illegal income claims, the "scam artists" who are only interested in making a fast buck. They do not tell you that network marketing is a sales business or a numbers game. "Heavy hitters" teach people to recruit, recruit and recruit. Recruiters don't know the "WHY" of the people they sponsor. They get them in the business and you never hear from them again.
Professional network marketers doe not make illegal income claims to entice people to join them in their business. They take a genuine interest in the people they sponsor. They get to know what their dreams are; what motivates them; what is important to them. The truth is that network marketing is a teaching and mentoring business. It is about people, their goals and dreams. Professional network marketers know they need to become a mentor with a "servant's heart" to have long-term success.
Professional network marketers are educated on how to evaluate a network marketing company. The first thing that they do is read the company's contract. They look for key phrases such as "the company reserves the right to terminate this agreement, and all associated agreements (including, without limitation, the marketing incentive programs), upon 30 days written notice, with or without cause." If there is anything in the contract about termination without cause they go no further.
The second thing they look at is the compensation plan; can the average person make money? They look to see how many people, distributors, associates, (whatever the company calls them) do they need to generate the volume that will bring them their desired monthly income.
Professional network marketers remove themselves from the emotion of the deal, the product, services, or whatever the opportunity that is being offered. They look at it objectively…how are they going to build the business; who's their customer; are people buying it because of the business opportunity; do they receive something of value when they join the company?
There is much more to being a professional network marketer. To learn more download Success in 10 Steps free e-book and get plugged into the free training that goes along with it. Most people who read the e-book learn how they can build a profitable business, but some continue to be frustrated.

How to Escape "The Chasing Trap" in Your Network Marketing Business
Most network marketers have fallen into "the chasing trap" in their network marketing business. What exactly is "the chasing trap"? It is when you want more for your prospects than they want for themselves. It is when you keep thinking or saying to yourself, "If I could only make them understand what I have to offer, then they will own their life". You chase them around trying to convince them that your opportunity and/or products are the "greatest thing since sliced bread".
Getting caught up in "the chasing trap" only leads to frustration and weariness. It will never help you achieve your goals. If you are in this trap you are not alone for most network marketers have experienced this. We all have wondered why they just don't get it or how can we make them understand. Most of us have spent hours emailing, calling and chasing them down to no avail.
To escape "the chasing trap" your first commitment MUST be to your people, NOT to your personal profit. Look at network marketing as a relationship game, not a sales business. Get to know your prospect and what they want. When you put other people's desires before your personal gain then trust and loyalty develop. Ask yourself "WHY" should your prospects choose you over all the other home business options. Your job is to make an impression that they will never forget that puts you head and shoulders above your competition.
Spend your time with those who want your help: the ones who raise their hand. Stop chasing those who really don't want to help themselves and you will soon have a team of self-sufficient, highly motivated, successful people in your network marketing business.
Take the first step now to escape "the chasing trap" and download Success in 10 Steps free e-book. Learn to put YOUR focused advantage into a few words to create a lasting impression. This e-book will give you tips and strategies that will elevate you above your competition.

"One Song Can Change Your Life"
"One song can change your life" just as it did for Shaheen Jafargholi, 12 year old singer from Whales. This is a great life lesson on telling the "truth". We all have experienced the disappointment that young Shaheen did when Simon stopped him from singing and told him that he got it all wrong. Shaheen was given another chance to sing the "right song that changed his life".
It takes a coach and mentor to tell you the truth when you don't want to hear it, just as Shaheen didn't want to hear that the song he chose to sing was not the right song for him. When Simon (the mentor) stopped him and told him the truth, Shaheen immediately made the decision to perform another song that "changed his life".
Just as the "right song" changed a young boy's life, so can the "right five pillars company" and the "right system" change your network marketing business. You can't build your business by yourself. You need the right system and team to help you every step of the way.
If you want to take your network marketing business to the next level and work with a team of "true mentors" then download Success in 10 Steps free e-book. Most network marketers who read this e-book have discovered the power of making a decision to choose the "right song", but some just stay frustrated because they don't want to hear the truth.

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.

Network Marketing: Answer to Get Out of Debt
Network Marketing may just be your answer to get out of debt. It is defined as “a distribution channel – nothing more.” Unlike traditional distribution methods network marketing allows people like you and me to share in the profits.
I came across this article by Seth Godin on ways to get out of debt, and I know of no better way to help people get out of debt than through the distribution model of Network Marketing that generates about $110 billion in sales a year.
Here's Seth's article:
Personal Finance Advice
By Seth Godin
http://sethgodin.typepad.com
“If I could only share one piece of personal finance advice to grads or to just about anyone, it would be this:
Only borrow money to pay for things that increase in value.
It's a short list: your business, your house and your education, mostly. Stocks if you're smarter than me. That's pretty much it.
If you have credit card debt, you're in big trouble. Your bank account has a huge leak in it, and it's getting worse. Hence the urgency.
If you have credit card debt, that means that every time you spend money (even cash), you're borrowing money to do so. And so, if you're going out to dinner or buying a new pair of shoes, you've just broken the single most important rule of personal finance. You're spending borrowed money on stuff that is decreasing in value.
This is an emergency. It's an emergency because every single day you wait, the problem gets worse. A lot worse.
My suggestion: Go to defcon 1, and do it immediately. Shift gears to live well below your means. That means:
No restaurants
No clothes shopping
No cable TV bill
No Starbucks
It means:
Take in a tenant in your spare bedroom
Carpool to work
Skip vacation this year
Eat brown rice and beans every night for dinner. Act like you have virtually no income.
The result? You'll save $5,000 to $20,000 a year. Send all of it to the credit card company. Do this until you're debt free, the faster the better.
There. Now you're rich. Now you get interest on your savings instead of paying the bank. Twenty years from now, this emergency action will translate into perhaps a million dollars in the bank, depending on how much you earn and how serious you are.
You can thank me then.”
End of Seth Godin’s article…
Imagine getting a check in your mail box without having to get an additional part-time job…would this help you pay off your debts and own your life? We will show you step by step how you can have this. Our training is FREE!
If you would like some help in creating a plan to get out of debt then my team and I can help you. First you need to know where you are and where you want to go…then we start working with you on a plan using the network marketing business model as your vehicle to financial freedom.

Buyers Beware of Those Outrageous Startup MLM Claims
Buyers beware of those outrageous claims…"make lots of money fast"! I just read about another startup MLM company that has designed a program using 1X3 forced matrix to help people make lots of money fast! The company hasn't even launched yet, and people are jumping on board. Please read this before you invest your hard earned money or savings on any pre-launching MLM company.
Before you jump into a startup MLM company check out the survival rate of new Network Marketing companies. Michael Dlouhy states in his book Success in 10 Steps that 90% of MLM businesses fail in their first year, and 90% of the remaining 10% fail in the second year. That means that only 1 in 100 MLM startup companies will be around in 2 years to pay you. That's a 1% survival rate!
Do you really want to invest your energy, time, money and reputation with a company that has a 1% survival rate? Let someone else test the waters. Find an established network marketing company that you can build your business with for you and your family. Build it once; build it big; build it to pay your children and their children.
To learn how to choose the best MLM Company for you, start with the free e-book Success in Ten Steps by Michael Dlouhy!

The Secret of Network Marketing Success
The secret of network marketing success is retention, retention, retention. It is no secret that network marketing is a relationship business, not a sales business. Network marketing success lies in building relationships with people: relationships built on trust and sincerity. Michael Dlouhy, author of Success in 10 Steps says, "People join people." When you honor and respect others they will want to be a part of your team.
The three things necessary for retention, the secret to network marketing success, are:
1. You must choose a five pillars company with consumable products that make a real difference in peoples lives. Your team members need to have a strong testimony about the products for them to stay with you and your company.
2. Your company, in addition to excellent products, must offer a compensation plan for you and your team (including the part-timers) to build an attractive income for years to come. And you need to have a proven duplicatable system for your team members to follow for them to be successful in network marketing.
3. Know your people and what they want. Help them put together their "why". Give them personal attention and respect; make them feel important and valued.
When your motivation is to genuinely help others they will respond to you with loyalty and trust. When people see the value and the power of what you offer with your mentoring, coaching, products, services, etc. they will ask to join you and your team.
Be the Leader You Were Created to Be!
