I know it sounds like a BGO (Blinding Glimpse of the Obvious) but people--good people--are the key to this business and the enjoyment of life per se. I have just finished a series of meetings in the South East US, followed by the South West, and the Bay Area, and now am in Japan starting an Asian leg. And everywhere I go I am impressed by so many good people! They are not only good at what they do (skilled), but more importantly, "good" (at heart), and also just good to be around. As a consequence, they attract other "good" people and their business grows and flourishes. As opposed to "not good" people that no-one wants to be around and who create a suction of all joy, fun, success and desire.
Prior to becoming a Distributor I had focused on (and sold) all of the benefits of this business (or so I thought)--Time (check; got that), Money (check; got that), Freedom (check; got that), Check (check; got that) but the one I missed entirely was the blessing (and it is that) of only having to work with people that you want to. The corporate world can be draining, no question. Mostly, I believe, because in many cases you have to work with or for someone for whom you have no respect or simply don't like--because they are not "good." I don't have to do that and I LOVE it!
So here's the question: "Are you "good?" Good at what you do (skilled), but also, and more importantly, just plain "good?" Do people want to be around you? Do you attract other good people? If so, GREAT; if not, let's work on that...
Here's to GOOD people.
