Working Smarter not Harder!

Effort alone, how hard you work on your business, will not gauge your success. In a 1998 study, effort was revealed as the single most overrated attribute in producing success. Most people ranked it as the best forecaster of success when in reality it is one of the least important factors. Effort, by its self, is a terrible way of predicting an outcome because ineffective effort is an incredible source of discouragement, leaving people to conclude that they can never succeed, since even applying great effort has not created results.

One major issue with those who fail in Network Marketing is having unrealistic goals and unrealistic expectations of what it will take to achieve those goals. As a result people get discouraged because their “hard work” did not pay off.

How do we work smarter?

Make an effort analysis, what have we been doing? Is it getting us the results we desire? What are the results we desire? Be very specific. Who is achieving the results we desire? Learn what their doing then compare our efforts to their system, make the necessary adjustments? Find and implement tools and systems that will leverage our efforts.
Don’t confuse BUSY work with REAL action! This is so significant, as important as "preparing" to build is, nothing will happen unless you "take the action" necessary.

You need to identify where you want to go long-term, then break it down backwards to monthly goals, weekly and daily so that you have a plotted out plan that will get you to your long-term goal.
