I Feel Like I’m In Jail!

So as most of you already know, I’m on vacation right now in Shanghai, China.

Yup, went back to where I was based for 5 years just to take a break and see some old friends. Maybe check out the 2010 Expo that everyone is talking about.

And I actually do like to put in a bit of time into work while I’m on vacation since I can basically plug in from anywhere. So right now I’m sitting in my hotel lobby just trying to upload some videos onto Youtube and comment on some blog posts etc.

But guess what?!

I’ve been away from China for so long that I completely forgot that almost ALL the social sites are banned here!

Can you freakin believe that?!

And I couldn’t figure it out for 15 minutes. I kept trying to refresh Facebook and Youtube and nothing was working. Then I remembered that they basically control the flow of information very heavily on the Internet here, especially on social sites.

So this vacation, has now ended up being a REAL vacation, because I literally CANNOT work!

HA!

No Facebook. No Twitter. No Youtube.

Holy crap!

Some would call that a blessing in …

From A Dream To Reality

People always ask me what the secret to success is. What is the one thing I would recommend to make a Network Marketing business successful? And my answer is always the same. There is NO secret. Unfortunately, there isn’t ONE single piece of advice, information or action that you can use to move your business from a brand new entity to a well-oiled, money making machine.

It requires strong resolve and the ability to overcome your weaknesses in the face of adversity. It requires a strong will and the blind passion of an entrepreneur to push forward when everyone tells you to stop dreaming. But most importantly, it requires an unwavering belief that you will make it!

If there really is a secret to being successful in this business and anything in life, this would be it.

Results really come from hard work. From being patient and persistent and always staying the course. Continually educating yourself and improving your skill set as well as having a positive …

Goal Achieved!

All I can say is WOW!

What a ride…

And if you don’t know what I’m referring to, I’m talking about the journey and success I’ve had inside of Network Marketing.

I’m sure most of you have already heard my story, but for those of you who haven’t, I’m going to let you in on a little ‘insider knowledge’.

Success for me wasn’t an option!

It really started in another recession back in 1997, which was very similar to the one we’re going through right now. I was in my last year of university and things weren’t looking up. My family was nearly wiped out and there was a big chance I wasn’t going to graduate.

“What the heck am I going to do without a degree?…”, I thought to myself.

It was scary times.

And if any of you have been through a situation like this before, you know exactly what I’m talking about.

But by a stroke of luck or pure determination from my dad, we scrapped through. I graduated. And from then on I made a promise to myself that finances would never be a problem for me or my loved ones ever again.

So I moved …
