Hi Thomas,

You're right about feedback, sometimes negativity is better than no response at all.  We can learn from criticism and improve. 

Hi Stephen,

I was also inactive my first 2 yrs here in the community, I didn't really take a good look at everything.  Then when I jumped in at the beginning of last year, this was the place where all the action was and mostly still IS!

Hi Tom,

Teams are only as strong as their weakest people, everyone has to pitch in and do their share.  I've been on big teams where only a few people worked hard, you know exactly what I'm talking about! 

People also need unshakeable confidence in their business, and confidence in themselves.  Joining business programs is a very touchy situation, if the business isn't worthwhile, that will become very obvious very soon. 

A true team is led by the head of the actual company, if the person who created and runs the business isn't of strong character...then no matter how great our own MLM team is, it won't fly.

I would say it takes more than one person to teach us things, we can learn something different from everyone.  Some people have great people-skills, some are great at writing ads, some are high-level cheerleaders, we can have several role models if we really look around.  Sometimes our downliners are fantastic also, it's not always the people above us who do the best leading.

Hi Kathleen,

Thank you for all this valuable information.  I have only been here a short 8 months, but I do get what you are saying.  I have watched and listened and instead of throwing my biz opps into everyones faces, knowing they did not know me and probably would not trust me , chose to just get to know people socially. 

I now have people sending me PM's asking me what I am doing online to make money.  It is then I chose to show them my biz opps and I am happy to say I have received some signups that way, not a lot, but it is a start.

Blessings,

Beryl
