Every season of the year offers unique benefits and distractions for your business. At least once in your life, you’ve probably experienced how these distractions tempt you to waver in your commitment to succeed, to let your time management priorities slip and to falter in your willingness to hold yourself accountable.
As the summer begins with all its tempting distractions … how are you feeling about your business?
Are you defeated? “Oh well, my business isn’t really a priority right now.”
Are you frustrated? “I can’t figure out how I’m going to work my business around my family’s crazy schedule.”
Are you confused? “I just don’t know what to do!”
How often do we hear a direct seller say something to the effect of, “Summer is a slow time for me.” After more than two decades in the profession, I don’t believe there are slow seasons. I have to call BS on that! Hah! And let me tell you why.
In every summer season, there are stories of teams in every company creating record-breaking sponsoring, sales, and growth!
So if teams are experiencing record breaking growth during the summer season, how can it be a slow season?
Here’s what I think. It’s not the season … it’s your sales and sponsoring! It’s not the season … it’s your activity level! It’s not the season, it’s whether or not you and your team are in action! BAM!
If your team is flat going into the summer … then yes, your season can be slow.
If your team is consistently creating new sales and sponsoring … then YES, you can create a record-breaking summer season.
So don’t blame it on the season! Ask yourself, “Where do you want your business to be by the end of the summer? What do you want your title … your organizational volume … your income to be?”
Work with you Sponsor or upline mentor and create the plan and work the plan! You don’t need 40 hours a week to be wildly successful. It’s what you do in the hours that you have that make the difference.
With consistent activity, you can enjoy the summer on your teams … and at the same time create a record breaking season.
