New year, new outlook. Stephen Covey, one of the most prolific leadership authors of our time, says there are six things you can do right now to make 2012 your best year ever:

1. Be proactive.
   It’s more than just taking initiative. It means being responsible for your own life. Empower yourself to lead and spread your influence no matter what position you hold.
2. Sharpen the saw.
   Decide what’s truly important. Sharpen your saw early in the day by learning to say no to the unimportant and yes to the highly important
3. Seek to understand before seeking to be understood.
   It’s human nature to want to be understood, but when both parties are trying to be understood, neither party is listening. By making the investment to understand the other party, you can magically transform the course of your conversations.
4. Begin with the end in mind.
   Start today with an image of the end of your life as the frame of reference by which everything else is examined. With a clear idea of where you are going, examine everything in the context of what matters to you most.
5. Develop a vision mission statement.
   Get a deep sense of your life’s mission, purpose and value system, then establish your goals and a system of accountability that keeps you on track.
6. Think win-win.
   There is enough success for everyone, so don’t view another person’s success as success achieved at your expense or exclusion.

Magic Pixie Dust

A few days ago, I wrote “Keys To Building A Large Network Marketing Team – Part 1“. Make sure you read that post before reading this one. This post will make more sense if you do that.

The Network Marketing business is like paddling a large boat with oars.

Initially you’re paddling the boat all by yourself and giving it everything you’ve got and the boat is so big and large that it’s barely moving. Of course it won’t move in the right direction if you’re the only one paddling. The chances are that it will be going around in circles. But you’ve to keep at it even thought it doesn’t seem like what you’re doing is having any (continue reading…)

Understanding The Keys To Building A Large Network Marketing Team

When most people join a network marketing business they are taught the so-called “formula for success”, which goes something like this:

- Short-term pain equals long-term gain

- Would you work real hard at something you do not want to do for the next 6 -12 months so you can live the rest of your life like you want to?

- You have to do today what others won’t so you can have tomorrow what others don’t (continue reading…)

For success to be real, you must make it a part of your life. It’s not enough to fantasize about your goal as some distant dream – a hoped-for future event that you may some day get around to. If your plan is to get ahead, you must consciously commit to that. Without paying enough attention, your intention for it will be empty. (continue reading…)

I read a few pages of the book Awaken the Giant Within by Tony Robbins and decided to share with you what I learned on how to create lasting change in any area of life.

For changes to be of any true value, they’ve got to be lasting and consistent. We’ve all experienced change for a moment, only to feel let down and disappointed in the end. In fact, many people attempt change with a sense of fear and dread because unconsciously they believe the changes will only be temporary.

A prime example of this is someone who needs to begin dieting, but finds himself putting it off, primarily because he unconsciously knows that whatever pain he endures in order to create the change will bring him only a short-term reward. (continue reading…)

“Imagine the crew at a construction site where a building is being erected. Cement trucks arrive. Steel beams are delivered. Miles of electrical wires wait to be installed. All crew members are in place, anxious to get to work. But they get no signal to break ground. Something’s holding up the work, delaying the construction. After waiting what seems an eternity, one of the workers gets frustrated with the waiting and goes to the foreman.

“What’s the problem?” he asks.

“No one can find the blueprint!” comes the reply.
