AFTER ALL IT'S ALL MINDSET!

FOUR guiding principles:
1. Everyone makes a difference.
2. Success is built on relationships.
3. You must continually create value for others.
4. You can reinvent yourself regularly.

1. Everyone Makes A Difference.

Have a passion for significance. Make a difference.
There are no unimportant jobs. Just people who feel unimportant in their jobs. When you don't see much meaning in what you do, you don't bring much value to what you do.
Everyone wants to count, to know that what he or she does each day isn't simply a means of making a living, but "a living of making meaning." Of adding value.
Inspired people often do inspired work. Passionate people in an organization do ordinary things extraordinarily well.
Remember: Downlines don't have relationships with organizations, they form relationships with individuals.
Here are two question to ask yourself:
* What kind of difference did you make today? * What kind of difference are you making with your life?

2. Success Is Built On Relationships.

Take the time to understand your team members and downline. Get to know their needs and preferences. Then use that information to provide better service than they had ever received before.
People aren't a means to an end, use relationships with people to build a foundation for success. Strong relationships create loyalty and are the basis of partnerships and teamwork. The quality of a relationship is directly related to the amount of time invested.
Remember: Indifferent people deliver impersonal service
As you analyze your relationships think of the 80/20 rule. Twenty percent of your relationships will give you 80% of your enjoyment, pleasure and value.
In reality, the numbers probably work out this way: Five percent of your relationships will give you 95% of your enjoyment, pleasure and value.
Spend your entire life looking for people who you like, and who like you, and you'll have a wonderful business, career and life.

3. You Must Continually Create Value For Others.

Create value for your team members and downlines. Your upline Your colleagues and coworkers. Your significant other, family and friends.
When you need to solve a problem - even if you weren't responsible for the problem - spend more time thinking and planning. Think 80/20 again.
It's far too easy to tackle a problem without giving it adequate thought. Instead spend 80 percent of your time thinking and analyzing the problem 'before' you initiate any action and you'll solve the problem in less time, with less effort, and include your TEAM in the solving process {RELATIONSHIPS}.
Spend more time thinking, and you will turn ordinary ideas into ones of great value. Have a BIG mission.

4. You Can Reinvent Yourself Regularly.

Reinvention is positive change. As you go through life, compare yourself against your potential. Not against others.
Compare your performance against the job you 'could' have done, not what someone else did.
Benchmark where you are, against how far you've come, and where you want to go. It's a lot more productive - and fun - to compare and compete against yourself.
The goal is ongoing improvement. In order to reinvent yourself and improve for the future, you must spend time reflecting on the past .
Here are five questions to ask yourself:
* What are the most important lessons you've learned?
* What did you once deeply desire to accomplish that you never attempted?
* Which people most shaped your life, and what did you learn from them?
* Whom do you admire most?
* Which of their skills and characteristics would you like to develop in your life?

Focus On What You GiveYour life will be more joyful - and successful - when you focus on what you give rather than on what you get. Do the right thing for the right reason, because it is the right thing to do.

When your motive for doing something is to receive thanks or praise, you'll often be disappointed. When you do the right thing, knowing that the doing is its own reward, you'll be fulfilled whether or not you get recognition from others.
Remember: Service isn't an obligation, but an opportunity. Being helpful is more fun than being helped.

REMEMBER, PEOPLE DON’T CARE HOW MUCH YOU KNOW,
THEY
WANT TO KNOW HOW MUCH YOU CARE…..
