Dont cheat yourself

This past Sunday I had a business overview meeting with my junior partner Olga. Olga is pretty cool I have been working with her more & more lately. She asked me if I would help her with a new prospect. She set up meeting with her potential business owner at one of our Starbucks offices in Miami. The meeting went great.  I mean the prospect didn’t say “ok where do I sign?” but she was very impressed with the quality of our products & how many different products & services we offer.  I like to look at someones face when they are evaluating & I did see that she was a bit overwhelmed with everything we offer but she said she was willing to talk to her hubby so we can meet again to see if she can handle such an incredible business opportunity. I know Olga will followup & follow through with her. After the meeting Olga & I came back to my house & talked about lots of stuff, like life & of course the business. Then Olga says “wow there is still so much I still Have to do”. I looked at Olga & said “yes you are right. No matter how much time has passed there is still allot We still haven’t done". Time has passed but what did you do in that time?? That’s what we need to evaluate productivity not just time. Olga like allot of us has had challenges. She has a husband 3 kids & a full time 45 year plan aka J-O-B. Just a few weeks ago something happened in her business that really pissed her off. She texted me “I am soooo pissed I quit”! OMG I couldn’t believe she send me that! She really sent that to the wrong person! If you are going to quit just do it, but never text me or even call me that you are doing it. If that’s what you are going to do then do it yourself, that’s my attitude. I didn’t answer her but 2 days later she texted me again “Hey I was just pissed that day I'm not going to quit I have put too much Time to quit now! I texted her back with a smile “Im glad u came 2 ur senses sometimes S_it happens but u need to move on. Don't get stuck on the Dot!
How can you come this far & cheat yourself? How can you get mad over a stupid thing that was your fault anyway & quit your dreams or purpose? I have said this before & I will say it again. If you quit you are only hurting yourself! Stuff will always happen it’s the law of the universe! But you have to take it as lessons. Don’t say you did everything when you know you didn’t!
I love to apply the don’t cheat yourself to my boot camp. My trainer writes out a workout & we have a certain time to do it. In the beginning I wasn’t doing all the reps because I was still breaking in. But I noticed that when I pushed myself more my body felt stronger, tighter & I was able to do more with my workout. If I don’t do the workout that I pay to do the only one losing is me! Yes me duh, I still gotta pay for the class weather I show up or not or weather I do it or not. So why would I cheat myself & not do my best to get the best results? It’s the same with the business. Any business or any dream worth having weather it’s a tight sexy body, a residual income business, becoming a superstar or whatever, if its worth having you will HAVE to get out of your comfort zone. So by hiding & pretending you did your workout it is not going to help you, it will hurt you. Cheating yourself saying you did your best when leaders are telling you daily what you need to do to be successful & You haven’t done it is really Cheating yourself! Go back to your business plan & read it! Have you seriously done even 20% of it? I know I still havent done all of it so I know for sure there are others who dont even know this business came with a business plan! For real some still have it in a corner in their home collecting dust!

Quitting!!

Let’s talk Quitting today. LOL, no not me quitting but the topic, Quitting is always the topic that we always want to NOT talk about, but the truth is people quit all the time. In my journey of learning my business, even the years that I wasn’t doing anything at all, it has never, ever, ever, ever, ever, crossed my mind about Quitting. Ever! There has always been something Unique & different about my business that I always knew I can accomplish so early on I decided that in order to accomplish such a great deal of success education was my 1st step in reaching my business goals. But yes I have had my share of Quitters. I have had 12 personal quitters so far. I remember my 1st quitter. I was shocked she said she was going to quit. I only told her about this business because she was one of those who was always crying & complaining about how bad it is, she would always say “Annette if you ever hear of an opportunity please tell me because I’m looking”, so naturally when I was introduced to this opportunity she was one of my 1st to tell about it. She didn’t even give it 3 months!!!  She didn’t even use the product!! I remember she had to turn in a quitting letter so me, like a dummy I wrote it for her because she didn’t know much English. I cried writing that letter because I realized very quickly that she was not qualified for this type of unique opportunity. Hello, what was I thinking???  She didn’t hurt me at all, she just quit on probably the best opportunity that could have helped her!  After that letter I promised that I would never write a quitters letter Again! Don’t get me wrong please I do appreciate all Quitters. I have gotten some of my best ideas from quitters. So guess what, It’s now my idea because they quit ;-)!
Every time I get a quitter I get this vision in my mind and I see myself running into this quitter years later and I am Super Duper Successful and they run up to me & say “hello Annette how are you? Do you remember me? I worked with you years ago…. wow I can’t believe how successful you are I see your name everywhere” and I look at them and say “OMG of course I remember you, how are you??? It’s been a few years since I seen or heard from you” then I hug them and say “it was so great to see you again” chat for less than 2 minutes and ride off into the sunset. J
I have ALL LOT of those visions in my head; it’s truly one of the coolest things about creating your future. My mind is wrecked -_- ;-)
So you must be thinking who’s quitting then? Well I don’t know there is always someone thinking it. But I just want to let YOU know that IF YOU are thinking QUITTING first of all YOU have the WRONG thinking because if YOU are thinking Quitting that means you think YOU CANT MAKE IT so all you are really thinking is that YOU DON’T BELIEVE in Yourself!  And if there is something that I can tell you about this business before you invest 1 penny the 1st thing you need is BELIEF that you WILL succeed and this business will change your life forever! I truly want everyone to understand that if you QUIT you are not hurting your sponsor, you are not hurting your senior partners you are not hurting me and most of all you are definitely not hurting the company because the bottom line is the business works if you work it & this company is a Billion Dollar company exploding into countries by leaps and bounds and they are changing the Face of Business Period!  Truly we are changing the world one Entrepreneur  at a time! You are TRULY only hurting YOURSELF!  It’s not my business it’s Your Business. I WILL continue to seek and find LEADERS that BELIEVE and those leaders will duplicate, because I BELIEVE in MYSELF and I BELIEVE in My Business. Only TIME will define the future! The question is do YOU want to be the one that QUIT on YOUR history in the making? It’s up to you.  So if Quitting ever comes into your mind I think it’s because you haven’t any idea what it is that you really want from your business. If you understood the power of your business you would be alot more serious about learning about it. Read the stories of those who made it and you will see how stupid your reasons are when you haven’t even started. You don’t have enough training or education to even understand what you are doing! So I suggest STOP trying to do this your way and LEARN to do it the UnFranchise way. Open that career manual & read it, thats why they sent it! Go to training meet with your team learn learn & learn some more and maybe you can feel better about what you are trying to accomplish ;)
Again I want to thank everyone that comes into my business experience weather you make it or quit I learned from you no matter what and I am very thankful for the education you have given me ;-)
I guarantee you will kick yourself in the  _ss when YOU see what YOU QUIT!
