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 to Shanghai, China. Big lights, big city. The New York of the East where there was tons of opportunity to make some real dosh.
I joined a financial brokerage firm and became the youngest top earner in the firm in my first year. Made 6 figures a year, ran a team and was achieving everything that I set out to do.
Well almost.
I didn’t realize that along with a high paying corporate job came massive responsibilities which sapped up 12 hours of my day, 6 days a week! And after doing that for 5 years…. I was burnt out!
There’s something seriously wrong with this world if someone has to work those kinds of hours even if the pay is good.
There has to be more to life than this.
So I went searching. And funnily enough, stumbled onto…. that’s right, Network Marketing.
Was a little skeptical at first like the next guy, but that disappeared quickly after I realized how massive this industry actually is and what it could offer me. So I jumped in, head first. And after having little success using offline strategies – you know what I’m talking about. Friends and family, cold calls, buying leads online etc etc etc… Yeah total BS. I moved my business online.
Now I wish I could say that the Internet saved the day and I became a millionaire the next month.
Ha!
Not a chance!
And if you think that you can become successful that quickly (1 week, 1 month!), what planet are you from? The last time I checked this was planet Earth. And in the real world, the only way you can have real success is through hard work and patience!
Unless of course, you know something that I don’t. In that case you can always call me… 
So I slogged it out. 3 months….became 6 months….became 9…. and then something really special happened.
Everything clicked.
All those months of training, learning, testing, and tweaking…..started paying off.
And just like that…
I quit my corporate job, moved back to Malaysia and now live a lifestyle that most people only dream about.
Now… the moral of this story is that you need to be realistic about the goals you set yourself in your business. And of course, that this industry is not for the weak. And if you are serious about becoming a successful entrepreneur in the network marketing industry, it’s going to require lots of work, focus and tenacity.
Anything less and you’re just fooling yourself.
The best part is, I finally made it onto a very exclusive list that my business releases every single week. I am now among GIANTS, and if you ask me, it feels pretty damn good.
Ask me how I did it…
It’s Your move!
