Clock is Ticking and Im still Sticking - Day 12

Day 12 since my bright idea of documenting my journey to Financial Freedom! I spent the last 7 days at my J.O.B. I love to call it that because for me it means Just Over Broke and all the time. I do not have a 9 to 5 job, when I'm gone, I'm gone and that is overseas, so its a little harder for me in that aspect. But on the brighter side, when I'm home, I'm home and its not a 9 to 5!

I've been a little stressed out this past week. When I look back at my numbers my team is growing, but I have not personally enrolled someone myself. I am pretty much beating myself up about this. I need my team to follow my example right? Its really not for lack of trying (which I was told that word means failing with grace) but I can see it is definitely lack of discipline.

Network marketing I have found during my 2 1/2 year journey so far is a journey in personal development. This is why I love it so much. I cant wait to get to a decent income level, so I can just go to David Wood or T.Harv Ecker seminars 24/7. I just love it! And it so fires me up.

But here is the deal, if you don't apply what you are being taught what is the sense. Like I said before, this is a simple business. As simple as it is, it is hard. And this is why it gets such a bad rap. Most people are not willing to work it! You need discipline. It is your own business. You don't have a boss to tell you you are late or you cant take off the day or the afternoon! So if you don't discipline yourself its easy to goof off. Network marketing works, but you have to work it. Uh the word contains the word Work! A business partner said to me "the climb to the top is hard but the view sure is worth it!" No other business can give you a view like that!

So my self discovery on day 12, which I guess is better than on day 300! Is procrastination. I like to put things off, and then when I do, I get upset and depressed because nothing gets done. Why do I do this to myself? Its so silly!

I have definitely been out there sharing from my heart. I truly believe I am not selling anything I am promoting a lifestyle that saves lives. So I love to network and this week alone I got 15 emails and phone numbers of people who want to cleanse the nasty toxins out of their body. But I procrastinated. I didn't email right away and Ive yet to phone one of the 15. Hmmmmmmmm that's not going to get me anywhere. I wonder if I'm afraid of success? Because that is certainly attainable with this compensation plan! I guess being aware of that is half the battle, time to work on the other half!

Glad its only day 12.. Ill start calling tomorrow. :-)
