Remembering Early Lessons Can Help You Be More Successful
Gordon Bellows

I am going to start this article by asking you a few simple
questions. At first, they may seem silly, but I want you to
really think about your answers as you read the questions.

Do you remember who taught you how to ride a bicycle?

Who taught you how to tie your shoelaces or tie a tie?

Who taught you how to cook or sew?

Who showed you how to drive? Was it a manual transmission?

I know you must be wondering what all of this has to do with
improving your chance for success. The focus of this article
is success in any area of your life, and more specifically,
how to be more successful in network marketing/MLM.

By now, you should be thinking about who taught you how to
do the things listed above. If they taught you the right way
to do something, they probably knew how to do it themselves.

I hope you are starting to see where I am headed with this.
You usually learn to do things from somebody who already
knows how to do it.

Well then, why do we listen to people who tell us how to do
certain things and how to be successful when they haven't
been successful themselves? These people might mean well,
but their opinion really shouldn't count unless they have
the experience and/or the expertise to back it up.

Don't pay any attention to those who say it can't be done.
Some people don't understand how to do it, and some may try
to discourage you because they are jealous of your dreams.

Listen to the person who has reached a goal that you want to
reach and decide if the method they used will work for you.

A mentor, somebody who has already reached a certain level
of success, can help you get on the right track. The old
expression of the blind leading the blind could happen to
you if you follow the advice of someone who has no idea how
to do something right.

Desire and determination are important, but you also need a
plan you can follow to reach your goal. If you're on your
own, it may be hard to find what works best without spending
lots of time and effort. That's why it's so important in MLM
to have effective ways to promote and sponsor. Opportunities
should have a system that can be used by all participants.

Do you remember being frustrated when you tried to learn
some of the things mentioned at the first of this article?

You really wanted to ride that bicycle and nothing was going
to stop you! After all, the kid from next door was doing it,
so it must not be that big of a deal. Right?

What about learning to drive? The moment you first stepped
on the gas pedal it sent tingles down your spine. And, if
you learned to drive a manual transmission, you wondered how
people could actually work the clutch and the gas pedal at
the same time. It just did not seem possible at first.

The point I want to make here is that most people kept at it
until they were able to do some or all of those things with
reasonable certainty and felt comfortable about it.

However, as adults, we might give up before we get good at
something. We lack the same tenacity and the do-it-or-else
kind of attitude we had in our youth. That is sad, because
there is no reason we should not strive to be better at the
things that interest us, or reach a higher level of success.

We have it within us to fulfill our desires and make our
dreams come true!

To have success in any area of your life you should first
believe in yourself and what you are doing. Also, you should
firmly believe that your dreams will become your reality.

And, to help improve your chance of becoming successful, you
should pay close attention to people who have been there and
done that. Their experience can guide you.
