I sat in the audience yesterday of my daughters dance competition. Doing my mom thing! I watched dancers of all levels, ages. Some showed fear, and defeat before they even started. Some showed confidence, professionalism and smiles. The ones that stood out, showed the work that they put in before the show, They went the extra mile to push beyond, what ever it takes ( WIT)! They had a coach nearby with smiles and support. She was there to encourage and console, but the performance was not in her control. It was up to the individual dancers and the entire team to come across with a flawless dance and to get to their goal a platinum metal and First Place overall.
Look around your life is surrounded by organizations where we practice, perform and look forward to the reward and the recognition. Whether it is our job, school, women's charity groups, sports etc. Can I control how far my team gets...no. I can only control my performance. Since you are building your organization, you are the CEO, only you can control your outcome. Have you been doing the work to prepare, have you attended the events, training. If you don't know how to do something, have you asked your upline where to find it for yourself? Do you take this seriously, or is it a hobby.
Can you control what the prospect does...no not really. You are looking for the red jelly bean in a big jar of white beans. You are looking for someone who is open to finding out about your business. If they aren't don't invest your time, feelings or energy. Next...you may find a few pink ones, that may turn into red beans. Great. You may find a few red ones that for no apparent reason fall out... next. You can't control that. YOU CAN CONTROL what you do next... keep prospecting, keep finding new red jelly beans! All you need is a couple to really drive your business fast! I know because this happened to us! You can control how you prepare, the work you do, your attitude, your belief, go out there knowing you will get the
platinum metal, maybe today, maybe next time!
We will be there in the wings of the stage, smiling...wishing you all the success you are working hard to achieve!
