Chad has this correct! Here are three good excuses for not succeeding in an MLM home business.

#3 - You're Afraid of Network-Marketing or MLM's

I can hear you shouting it already...It's a Pyramid Scheme! You'll get sucked in! This is a LIE! Ever heard of "One Bad Apple Spoils The Bunch" or "Misery Loves Company"? This can be applied perfectly to the Network/MLM Business, one bad apple along the way and all of sudden that's the first thing that comes to mind, you've already decided it won't work for you even though you never even tried. IF they're all pyramid schemes then how are they still in business paying out millions to their affiliates/distributors? MLM's are not on trial anymore, they are a PROVEN BUSINESS MODEL that can and will make you very, very wealthy, IF you don't give up after a month.

What I'm about to tell you is going to shake you up. Think about the current company you work for, grab a piece of paper and draw this as you read it. At the Top there is the President/Owner of the Company - PROBABLY YOUR BOSS Below him/her There is few Vice-Presidents Below each of them there are 5 or 6 Executives Below them Are some Managers And Finally... Below Them (and usually doing most of the work) are the employees. What does that look like to you? Great Scott, A PYRAMID! You've been in a pyramid scheme your whole working life and didn't even know it, only in this pyramid you're probably near the bottom. What I love about Network-Marketing is you're at the top!

#2 - You Think Running A Business Is Too Much Work
A friend of mine was telling me about his dad's business. It's a decal/sign company that makes custom graphics for Dirt-Bikes, ATVs, etc... He told me that his dad worked all the time and that he'd never start his own business because it was too much work. Obviously something is wrong here, he doesn't know how to leverage the power of others. When you have a business that can be easily duplicated you can teach others how to do the same thing you are doing, therby leveraging their efforts to make millions. You don't have to work as hard and you make more money.

It doesn't happen over night so most people give up before they've laid the proper foundation. Sadly, they sink back into corporate slavery periodically emerging to have a nice dinner at their favourite restaurant for some special occasion. BUSINESS IS EASY, They just didn't find the right one! My business allows me to work as much or as little as I want. I usually sleep in until 11, get up and make a nice breakfast, then hit the computer. I spend 2 or 3 hours e-mailing and talking to people on the phone about their current work/financial situation and helping them start their own business so they can KISS the 9-5 GOODBYE! I leverage their efforts by teaching them what I know, they do the same with others, the system works.

AND THE #1 REASON YOU'RE STILL NOT RICH IS.... You're Still An Employee! When you work for someone else you're making them rich, not you. You're trading your time for dollars and this basically amounts to living paycheck to paycheck, attempting to save what you can so you can have some sort of retirement someday when you're too old to do the things you wanted to do but didn't have the money. Freedom 55 be damned! I'm going to enjoy my life when I'm in my prime! STOP making someone else rich and START living YOUR DREAM.

If you help enough people achieve their dreams, you'll achieve yours.
