BE THE TEAMMATE YOU WANT TO ATTRACT

"Be the change you want to see in the world", I believe Gandhi said that...

That wisdom, when applied to our business, really hits home...
 
"BE THE TEAMMATE YOU WANT TO ATTRACT"...


I specifically remember several times in those first couple years that people or circumstances frustrated me so much it almost made me want to quit...

But I remember thinking, "This is a test, how do I want my future teammates to respond when they face this situation?  I'm going to CHOOSE TO BE STRONG FOR THEM."

You see, if you quit or lose passion in your message, it means you let the flakes, skeptics, quitters, and complainers define YOUR future - THAT is a painful thought...

We wanted a team who:

- put in CONSISTENT part time effort
- ran the roads and communicated the message FACE TO FACE
- kept their WORD
- had THICK skin
- INVESTED in their business
- MADE Success School happen
- said no to some things now to have MANY things later
- were ALL in
- stayed TOUGH AND COMMITTED through challenging patches

SO WE CHOSE TO BE ALL THE ABOVE FIRST.  BE. DO. HAVE.

Leadership in this company will repel the average person who thrives on instant pleasure... fortunately, the average person needs and loves our products...

Regarding Business Builders, we have to always remember that it only takes a few loyal warriors to get this thing off the ground... once it's off the ground you're rollin' and the next set of leaders is easier to attract...

BE THE TEAMMATE YOU WANT TO ATTRACT.
