The following was taken from a conversation I had with a very successful individual in
Network Marketing business, and this also echoes my own personal observations.I have been involved in this business for a number of years and I have seen people come and go from literally all walks of life, education levels, backgrounds, etc. I have worked with medical doctors, engineers, scientists and people who were only a step above being illiterate.
And while certain skills are beneficial, none are a predictor of success. But I can tell you what is biggest predictor of success, and also in many cases a predictor of failure. I am never 100 percent right - if I was I would put everything I have in Stock Market, however one thing has always stuck out with me. You see I did an in depth analysis several years ago now (consulting a number of successful people) of what made some people successful and what made others basically quit or fail.
And here is what I determined to be true in almost all cases. And this in my observation doesn't just apply to people in this industry but successful people everywhere. The people who were successful simply were going to figure out a way to make their business work.
They believed they were going to be successful.
They weren't about to accept no as an answer. No matter how many times they heard "No" or failed they got back up and kept on going. It didn't matter how much they knew or how much experience they had they simply weren't going to fail. Failure was not an option, if one thing didn't work they would try something else.
It really comes down to heart. Heart is what kept Michael Jordon going after being cut from his High School basketball team as a sophomore. Heart is what kept Sylvester Stallone going after being flat broke and having his Rocky script rejected time and time again. All great men and women have heart it takes to just try again one more time.
