New Year's Resolutions
It’s 6 days in to the new year. So how are you doing with those New Year’s Resolutions? Are you still keeping them, or did you throw some of them overboard already?
Statistics show that “45% of Americans usually set New Year’s Resolutions; 17% infrequently set resolutions; 38% absolutely never set resolutions.”

Building Your Network Marketing Business is Not a Sprint - It's a Marathon
Are you building your network marketing business going full speed like you would run a sprint?
I’m back in the saddle again after an enjoyable break. I cheated a little and did not totally keep away (from the computer) like I had planned originally but I did take it very easy. And I took a lot of time to think. I guess, I really needed that. Both, the break and the time to think. I was going full speed ahead, always afraid I’d miss something if I didn’t and I lost myself along the way.
I am a very competitive sort of person. I hate to be left behind and I hate to lose. I am also very driven which, I guess, goes right along with being competitive.

Now, would it really make such a big difference if I just skipped today and had some fun instead? At first thought, no, probably not.

"Rinse and Repeat" Formula for a Successful Network Marketing Business
So, just what is this formula for a successful network marketing business?
It’s been said, that our habits predict our future. I believe that to be true. How about you?
Have you ever noticed that the more you do something the better you get at doing it? You can take anything in life and you will see that there is actually some truth to it.
Remember when you first learned to ride a bike?
You were wobbly. You knuckles turned white because you were holding on to those handle bars for dear life. You prayed that your dad (or mom, or whoever was holding on to the bike to keep you stable and give you support) wouldn’t let go.

Productivity Advice from Jerry Seinfeld
We all have certain tasks that we should be doing on a daily basis. But for some reason or another we don’t.
Deep down we know that doing these tasks would not only help us become a better network marketer but they would also greatly improve our business skills.
There’s a great story about a young comic who met Jerry Seinfeld.
He asked him if he had any tips on how to improve his jokes as he was still learning the ropes.
The answer Seinfeld gave him was genius, not for the fact that he told the young comic to write every day (which he already knew), but because he told him
