Inspirational Message

The Best Things in Life are Free

Last weekend we spent a few idyllic days visiting my Mother in the South Jersey town of Cape May. We met up with our long time friends Jeff and Denise and did relaxing things like drinking tea on the back porch, watching the sunset on the beach overlooking the Delaware Bay while the music played God Bless America and the flag was slowly lowered, riding bikes, playing horseshoes, and walking on the promenade by the ocean. While sitting on the beach on Friday, we were treated to a spectacular dolphin show. For over an hour, there must have been 100 dolphins swimming past us. They were frolicking, jumping, and spinning not more than 50 yards away. Dolphin watch boats lingered in deeper water, with the paying guests straining to catch a glimpse of what we could see for free from our beach chairs. What did these activities have in common? They were all free for us!

So many times people pay exorbitant prices to experience some entertainment that falls far short of their expectations. Many people are constantly seeking excitement and fulfillment, yet do not find it. They endure the week to get to the weekend, collapse on Saturday, and then begin worrying about going back to a job they don’t like. Although our companies products are not free, people who use them can experience freedom from sickness, pain, fatigue, worry about the next flu epidemic, and even financial pressures. Rather then spend vast sums of money on medications, a small daily investment of a few dollars can help insure that they will live to enjoy the best things in life like grandchildren (we are waiting), vacations (we are taking them) and family time (we have it).

It does not cost you anything to give the gift of our products and life style, and it may mean everything to the one receiving it. We in this business know that the best things in life are free, and to be free is one if the best things in life.

Freely we have received, freely give,

Mike

am thankful for the promises I find in God's Word.

I have people building with me because I am showing the best opportunity in this world!

I will call Joyce, Erin and Judy today about a business opportunity. I will try to reach Felissa and her Dad again! (They don't seem to be easy to get a hold of...but then... busy people make great partners!)

Debby
1. I am thankful for all that God has graciously provided

2. I make time for my customers

3. I made 9 phone calls yesterday and connected with 4 people. I sent out about as many e-mails. I spoke with a potential customer last night and she said she was going to look at my web site for vitamins. I have not seen an order come through yet, but will follow up on that.

4. I have a makeover with a new person today that will hopefully generate a new member!

Mike and Becky

Believe

a friend sent this to us today,

A son and his father were walking on the mountains.
Suddenly, the son falls, hurts himself and screams:
"AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
To his surprise, he hears the voice repeating,
somewhere in the mountain: "AAAhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
Curious, he yells: "Who are you?"
He receives the answer: "Who are you?"
Angered at the response, he screams: "Coward!"
He receives the answer: "Coward!"
He looks to his father and asks: "What's going on?"
The father smiles and says: "My son, pay attention."
And then he screams to the mountain: "I admire you!"
The voice answers: "I admire you!"
Again the man screams: "You are a champion!"
The voice answers: "You are a champion!"
The boy is surprised, but does not understand.
Then the father explains: "People call this ECHO,
but really this is LIFE. It gives you back everything you say or do. Our life is simply a reflection of our actions. Life will give you back everything you have given to it." (Anonymous)

Your life is not a coincidence. It's a reflection of you! Proverbs declares, "As a man thinks, so is he, and as a man chooses, so is he." If you would like to know who is responsible for most of your troubles, take a look in the mirror. If you could kick the person responsible for most of your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit down for three weeks. It's time for us to stay out of our own way.



Stop looking only at where you are and start looking at what you can be. Be careful of where your mind wanders; your words and actions follow it.



No one can defeat you unless you first defeat yourself. Self-image sets the boundaries and limits of each of our individual accomplishments. If you doubt yourself, listen to Alexander Dumas: "A person who doubts himself is like a man who enlists in the ranks of his enemy and bears arms against himself."



You carry with you the world in which you must live. Know this: when you have a great dream, your mind will be your biggest enemy. Remember you are your own doctor when it comes to curing cold feet, a hot head and a stuffy attitude.



You may succeed if nobody else believes in you, but you will never succeed if you don't believe in yourself. Whatever you attach consistently to the words "I am," you will become.


-John Mason, from the book Imitation is Limitation

Traci

am thankful for my family and the time I am blessed to invest in their future.

I have a full calendar because I am making calls and asking the right questions!

Today I will continue contacting the names on my warm market list and trying to reach the people I was unable to speak with from the Minerelles on Saturday (Heather, Ashley, and Diana). I will try to reach my midwife (Emily) again about pre-natal packs for her clients (I've been working on a pamphlet to describe the benefits of Vitalizer, Osteomatrix, Alfalfa...for expecting and nursing mommies).

Yesterday I left a message with Felissa about our business opp meeting. I was unable to reach her Dad. I shared supplements with my Mom. Also, I began working on getting a Cinch Group together and was able to speak with one person (Rosa) who is starting with me on Oct 1.
Just a note: When I email something to a potential client I always try to remember to request a "Return Receipt" (found somewhere on the email being created). This helps me gauge if people are actually reading the emails or not

Debby

1. I am thankful for the opportunities I have been given.

2. My business is growing and thriving

3. Wed. I made three phone calls and helped a new customer set up her online account. I then had a makeover with a current customer which did not generate any immediate sales, but I know they are forth coming. I enjoyed this makeover; if nothing else it is continuing an on-going relationship with this person. She is a nurse and has started working at health fairs. One of the thing that she does is use a machine to show people how much skin damage they may have. I asked her if she would feel comfortable giving out my information regarding the skin care products and she said she would be delighted to.

4. Today I’ve already sent 4 e-mails to people that I’ve already been in contact with. Two are potential customers that I already had appointments with. I’ve told them that I have a goal to meet by the end of the month and IF they were going to put in an order would they mind doing so before Sunday. One responded that he would think about it and I haven’t heard from the other. I have, however, already this morning made an appointment for tomorrow with a contact from the health fair. I have at least three phone calls I will make this morning and more later on.

Jennifer
I have two new members, Linda Brost and Betel Lopez, which is Chole's daughter.
1. I'm thankful for healthy kids.

2. I am great at following up with customers.

3. I have people to call to plan my in home Get Clean.

Karen

Stephanie
I'm thankful for persistence and faith that God provides daily.


God makes all grace abound to me so that having all sufficiency in all things at all times, I abound in every good work.(see 2 Cor. 9:8)

Good Morning Team!
I am grateful for people willing to listen to what I have to offer.

I signed my 1st Gold Ambassador today! (affirmation)

Yesterday I called 5 people, made a connection with 1. Will follow up. Confirmed appt. with Soloman for Thursday evening. Gave a couple of invitations out for Oct. 6th. Abduhl said he is coming on the 6th. I reminded him to bring as many people as he can.

Today I will meet with Soloman and family fOR 2nd meeting. Hope and pray for positive results. Will continue to fill my available time with appts. and home shows. TEAM VISION POWER!!!!


Jennifer

1. I'm thankful for the beautiful place we live in.

2. I'm very creative in presenting my business.

3. Call more people and listen to the team up again.

Traci

I am thankful for flexibility.
Because I work the business I am strong and getting stronger.
I will follow up today with Felissa and her Dad. Continue touching base with as many people as I can.
I spoke with few of the people today that came to the Minerelles last Saturday. They are simply waiting for the next pay check.
I have a confession to make. When I researched doing the inspirational story for our Tuesday Team call I had forgotten it needed to be related to team work. I had an interesting story about a single gentlemen. When Becky asked me to share the inspirational team story my heart leapt into my throat! But, because I had such wonderful parents who taught us through music, stories and folk tales, provided us with rich reading material, and (of course) the Bible...the folk story of the seven brothers came instantly to mind. Thanks, Mom and Dad!!!

Mike and Becky

We are thankful for the people God puts in our path everyday - to help us and for us to help.

We are cognizant of harvest time being upon us and are ready to wade out into the crops.

Mike placed an Air Source tester in Mt Vernon country club today.

Becky emailed customers who are close to getting a bonus.

I am thankful for being in business for myself BUT not by myself!

I have success, because I am working to help others be successful.
