This laid the foundation for a trusting and profitable relationship and set me on the right course. I have done the same, requiring people I sponsor to write their "WHY" before they join. It makes a bit difference. Great post. The person who sponsored me into the Network Marketing company I have joined asked me to write out what you describe here before I joined the company.

We like to tell entrepreneurs to play "Above the Line". On a piece of paper write out Responsible and draw a line under it. Then beneath the line write the words quit, justify, layblame, and denial. Most people start at the denial stage, then they will quickly lay blame on others for their circumstance, then they will move to trying to defend it or justify -- lastly, they will just quit all together because the negativity around denial and justification takes all their energy from them. However, to become a world class performer in Network marketing, you need to constantly play above the line.

]]> Comment on “The Secret” - Where is it Today? by John Curtis http://networkmarketingnow.com/home-based-business-tips/motivation-and-encouragement/the-secret-where-is-it-today/#comment-464 John Curtis Sun, 14 Dec 2008 13:08:47 +0000 http://networkmarketingnow.com/?p=288#comment-464 The Secret is the latest and by far the worst example of a HIGHLY profitable trend where self-help gurus with fabricated new age titles and little relevant education, credentials or legitimate expertise brainwash us into believing that they know what is best for us, our marriages and our families. Often their only contribution to society is introducing some exotic sounding, new age philosophy. However, they often cleverly form an incestuous group of like-minded “experts” who cross-promote each other by swearing their success is due to following the beliefs of another member of their “cult!” All the while, they ply the airwaves jockeying for an ever-larger audience by appearing in the national media to garner third-party endorsements. The Self-Help Movement has become the Self-Destruct Movement by diminishing or destroying our critical thinking skills to choose and evolve on our own. We have given up the freedom to build healthy lives, marriages and families based on our unique history and life experience. Instead many victims, blinded to the value of their own life experiences, are attracted to the latest secret in self-help, in an attempt to find out what they should think, feel and how they should act... this is the definition of a cult. The solution is a return to our (common) senses! The best way out of this learned “self-helplessness” is to go cold turkey. Stop following ALL self-help gurus now. Begin, instead, to reclaim your natural, God-given ability to think for yourself. The common sense that was once readily available to all of us is still there free of charge and waiting to be applied to just about any challenge we might face in life… all you have to do is use it. Please, let's all work together to stop the flock of "sheepeople" who blindly move from one UNPROVEN concept to the next, looking for the answers to life's challenges that you already possess and that is the OBVIOUS!
