Ideas Alone Don't Bring Success
Ideas are important, but they're only valuable after they've been implemented.
How many times have you been on an airplane looking at a SkyMall catalog and seen an idea that you had and someone else did it and now they are getting paid?
Ideas are the first step in creativity. I have an "Idea Book" where I will write down all my ideas to make my business more successful. Some of these ideas I have implemented right away. Others ones are there sitting and waiting for me to take action on them or give them to someone else who could use an idea to grow their business.
I believe all the ideas I have could be for me or for me to impart on someone else. I know that my ideas have no value unless I take an action on it or give it away and someone else takes action on it.
One average idea that's been put into action is more valuable than a dozen brilliant ideas that you're saving for "some other day" or the "right opportunity".
If you have an idea that you truly believe in, do something about it. Use it or share it! The value will come when an action is taken.
What is an idea that you are ready to implement in your life today? How will implementing this idea become valuable to you?
What is an idea that you would like to offer to others? Can you market yourself to teach this to others? An idea can work for many people not just one.

Action Steps for Success #2
Attitude Matters
Your attitude is the key to making anything a success. Many people have the attitude of business will find me. I just have to say I am in business and people will hunt them down to buy what they are selling. Whether it is a product or services you will have to take on the attitude of "If it is to be, it is up to me".
Many times people will act in business as they do with their family and friends. Very laid back and comfortable.
Your attitude will be the strongest (or weakest ) aspect about you.
To be successful you may want to shift your attitude to be on purpose and maybe stretch your boundaries of comfort.
Your attitude will determine how you handle the circumstances around you. When challenges arise are you handling them with looking for a solution or are you taking revenge out on the circumstances? Getting mad or taking the circumstances personally usually does not show the best in you.
Your attitude determines the self image you have. People often look to see your attitude in how you handle the hard stuff. Do you defend or justify what happened? Or are you looking for the lesson and course correcting to be better the next time around?
I believe people want to work with people who have been through challenges and have had a good attitude to get through them instead of a victim style attitude. That way they feel like if something were to happen then they will not feel beat up from the relationship.
Things go wrong in life! Challenges interfere with smooth transactions and both sides are effected by it. Make sure your attitude acknowledges the other people involved.
You are in control of your attitude! You are in control how you respond to any circumstance in your business. How will you manage it to be a success? People want to support others to be successful, remember they do not want to fight through your attitude to help.
What is one thing you can do today that will stretch the boundaries of your attitude? How can you improve a small step in attitude that will support you in growing in your business?

Action Steps for Success #1
Take Action & Start Today
If you're waiting to start something until conditions are perfect, you probably never will start.
There will always be something that isn't quite right. Not enough money, timing not right, someone else is doing it or too many people are trying to hold you back.
How many times have you said you would start something and you still have not? What has stopped you? What keeps you from taking the action steps necessary to do what you want to do?
There is no perfect time to start. You have to take the risk and take action! You will have to deal with the issues and circumstances as they arise. By that time you will have already learned new ways to solve quicker. The best time to start - is Today!
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe said, "Each indecision brings its own delays and days are lost lamenting over lost days... What you can do or think you can do, begin it. For boldness has magic, power, and genius in it."
At the top of every profession people share one main quality - Commitment to get things done. Taking action on what needs to happen. Leaders get into the habit of putting ideas into action now! Taking action is essential to getting things done.

Be A Legacy Networking Tip #11
Follow Up System
What is your follow up system? When you receive a contact or someone tells you they want your product or wants to book a presentation from you what is the system that you follow?
Are you reinventing your system with some similarities each time? Create a system that is consistent.
Follow up within 48 hours with every lead you get. You can follow up by phone, email, mail or be creative and follow up!
Have a form with the questions you want to ask in front of you. This way you do not ever get of the phone thinking you forget to ask them something. This also allows you to stay on track and will help with time management to do more follow up calls.
If you are calling to follow up and have to leave a message, let the prospect know you will be calling again. How is your call back system working? I have a 5 call systems in place for each person. I will leave a message using each of the 4 behaviors styles. This way it is more likely that when they hear me speak in their behavior style they are more likely going to call me back. However, my fifth call is the final call in which I let them know I will not be calling them again and though I would like to support them with their need, it seems not at this time.
If I do not make contact with the prospect I will follow up in about 15 days and 30 days with a postcard if I have their address or use email as the second choice. What will you do?
Having a powerful follow up system is most important for your business success.
When you do not follow up you are telling yourself that your business does not matter to you and you are telling the lead that they are not important.
Make a commitment to create a follow up system and follow up within 48 hours for 30 days. Watch your business success grow.

Be A Legacy Networking Tip #10
Be Prepared For Success
Always have your business tools with you when you go out! Always, always have business cards, brochures or catalogs with you!
Whether you are at the store or networking events have something that people can walk away with that represents you. If you make a connection with someone and they want to connect with you and you have nothing to offer them that will allow the two of you to connect in the future, you are missing an opportunity!
Your contact information is key to business success. People are busy and do not want to have to work to make the connection that will serve you. People want fast, easy connection!
I have been to many event and at every event someone tells me "I forgot my business card". I just ran out or I am getting new ones printed. I heard "oh I can not believe I forgot them. First impression is "not serious about business!"
If you want to be treated as a serious business person bring the tools to support that.
Have cards in your vehicle, spouses vehicle, brief case, purse and any bag you have. I have taken cards to the beach in Hawaii! Do not be left making an impression that your business is not important.

Be A Legacy Networking Tip #9
Wear Your Business Proud!
Wear a name badge where ever you go. At least your company logo. Get your logo and name embroidered on your shirts and jackets. Let people see who you represent. It helps you get noticed and creates credibility, professionalism and branding for you and your business.
When you go to meetings, mixers, social activities, events and shopping wear your business proud. I have picked up many clients while shopping because people have a sense of curiosity. I truly believe people want to connect, yet they do not feel they have anything in common to speak about. By providing something for them to speak about you open the door for them to connect with you. Allowing a possible start to building a relationship.
Get your car a name badge too. You are driving around anyway, so let people know who you are and what you have to offer. (Make sure you act appropriate driving and be professional.) Having business magnets or signage on your vehicle creates visibility and exposure for your company which create you as a successful leader.
If you set up a table or booth at a networking event then get a table cloth with your company name, logo and web address on it. Allow your table to sell you too.
I am not saying you have to go out and get all of these at once. Get your name badge and then work to save to get to the next level. All of these items can be inexpensive if you look for the bargains and sales. It will create greater visibility for you which will bring you a return on investment quickly.

Be A Legacy Netwroking Tip #8
Get Involved In Your Community
Networking is about getting involved. Connecting with people and building relationships. Often I see people who say they are out networking and what I notice is them in a corner observing or hanging out with people they already know.
Networking is about connecting with the people you know and building new connections with people you do not know.
Getting involved in your community includes attending mixers, social networking events, fundraisers and charitable groups.
Be a giver in your community with your time and social power. If you only attend an event once you may meet a couple of people however if you attend several events people start to see you as a resource and will connect with you more.
Not everyone will be a customer to you, however they may run into someone who is looking for your services down the line. Either way the more people you connect with the more likely they will help you with ideas when you have a challenge that you are facing. You may also be able to help them with a challenge and then you are a valuable resource to them.
The more people know you, the more relationships you build, the more support you receive when you need it!
Many fabulous networks include:
Local Chamber of Commerce (Great resource for events and mixers)
Small Business Development Centers
Direct Selling Women's Alliance (DSWA) and trade organizations.
Women's Success Groups, eWomensNetwork, Networking groups,
Social Network - TweetUp's, MeetUp's
Facebook/Social Media Communities
Lions Club, Kawanis, Rotary, Local Non-Profits and more.

Be A Legacy Networking Tip #7
Create A Circle Of Support
You have the power to choose who you hang around with. Ideally you want to be with happy, vibrant and positive people. People who are achieving results in life.
If you are in business surround yourself with other business minded people. You can create a team of people to connect with to support you in business and in your personal life. Ask business people to mentor you if you are just starting out. Or be the mentor for someone else who is just starting out.
If you are a parent of small children you would want to surround yourself with positive role models raising positive kids. Who are people that have raised happy, healthy and responsible kids? Connect with them and ask how they did it.
Do you want a healthy loving relationship? You will want to find out how other people have created healthy loving relationships. Ask people who have been together for a long period of time. What have they done to make it successful? What were the difficult times? How did they get through them?
Sometimes the people we are the closest to are the nay sayers in our lives. Find people to get involved with to grow your business, your relationship and all the areas of our life. Attending all your companies calls and meeting helps you be connected with the support you may need to be successful.
You can get on teleclasses for just about every aspect of your life. You can create a brainstorming team and have a call once a week or month. Utilize all the ways to find people to support you in business and in your personal life. There are a lot of people offering to support you. All you have to do look for what you need support with and start to ask for it! It is up to you to ask for the support you need. Be willing to ask and go after it.
There may be some people that you choose to no longer connect with frequently if they are not supportive of your dreams and goals. Keep looking for the people who will.
Each of us have gifts to offer others. By being with people who are supportive you may be able to see more of your gifts as well as seeing other peoples gifts.

Be A Legacy Networking Tip #6
Compare Yourself Fairly
Are you comparing yourself fairly against other?
Do not expect your business to be the same as someone who has spent more successful hours in their business. Those are the people we strive to become. We will not become the big, heavy hitter in our company without putting in the productive time and efforts. If you are new to your industry, you cannot expect to have the same success as someone who has been consistently growing their business for five years. This is like comparing apples to oranges.
If you are looking for the quick fix I would suggest working for someone else. If you are determined to be a business owner then put quality business building hours into your business!
Sure, it would be nice to land a big account or person so motivated they bring in 100 people with them in business, but don't get caught up in the hype and emotion. It takes work to build your business and to keep from being discouraged compare your hours and time and talents fairly.
Keep striving for better and quicker ways to build success. Duplicate success! Follow the Leaders before you! You may be able to reach the same success that others have in less time than it took them. It still will take the time and energy that you put in to make it happen.
Check to see if you are Comparing yourself fairly in life. Ask yourself "What scale are you measuring yourself on?". Are you comparing yourself to a hope of perfection? Are your successes rarely enjoyed? Do you constantly have the drive that you must do or be better? Do you see something that you did not do well as a failure and then focus on that?
If you have given 100 percent of your skill and knowledge to a project and when it is complete look back and see where you could have done things differently how do you treat yourself? you could look back and decide that you did a great job that was 97% worthy and the 3% is what you would focus on as not enough. Put your merit up against yourself only.
Start listing your achievements and compare them to others who are the same age, gender, social background and culture. Are you comparing your physical beauty to someone else that does not live in your body or your life style?
Write down the differences. Notice the similarities and differences for yourself. Notice the negative comparisons you place on yourself and how much energy you put on worrying about them. If you were to release that energy and put it somewhere more productive where would you put it?
In your relationships with your spouse, kids, friends or at work, your business? How about positively on yourself? How do you hold back the real you from playing full out because you do not see yourself as enough?
Some things to think about and journal on could be:
• Is it possible to accept myself and treat myself in a lovingly and compassionately, regardless of my accomplishments or lack of accomplishments?
• Do I need to be outstanding, special or unique?
• Am I looking to prove something? And if so who?
• Why does failing at something transform me into being a failure?
• What would my life be like with a fair comparison?
• Can I be satisfied with progress, not perfection?
Final thought: Did you know that the composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart by th age of 12 was more successful by any standard in music composition. Mozart spoke 15 languages and had composed numerous major pieces of music, including an opera. He was still a child! I would not want to compare myself to that!

Be A Legacy Networking Tip #5
Get In The Game!
When challenges arise make sure you take responsibility for what is going on. Get in the game and hold on. Don't look upline, look in the mirror! It is not the company, the system or the upline. We know this because the company system is working for thousands of others, so ask yourself, "What else can I be doing?"
Are you on ALL the conference and training calls? These calls may seem boring and time consuming. However, if you picked up one great tool and it brought your business to a new level it would be more than worth it. Plan to be on at least one call or training each week that will improve your skills. If your company does not offer calls or trainings know that there are a lot of complimentary tele-classes out there. Utilize what is available to you.
You can always ask to be a speaker with some great tools and ideas you have found useful. Be willing to share what works for you with your team and leaders.
Read articles and books that will advance your business! This will keep your head in the game and can give you the opportunity to be more creative. Always look to move up. Be a LEADER!
Review your website often. Update to keep up with the trends.
Create a blog. Talk about the items or services you sell. How they have made a difference for you. Offer tips and ideas to improve the quality of someone elses life.
Be involved in social media like Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc. if it would help you build relationships to grow your business. Keep getting in the game!
Finding ways to improve your business at least 2-3 times a week, will keep your business moving forward. Know that the person you admire in the business is doing something to keep thier business moving forward. As you grow, you will be the person others will admire.
No one else can keep you in the game. That is your responsibility. If you find you are not playing then check back in with the reason you got involved in the first place. Ask yourself "why" again and again until you take responsibility and do something. Remember, A decision is meaningless without an action!
The more you learn, the more you will earn. Be active and keep yourself playing in the game.

The more you learn, the more you will earn. Be active and keep yourself playing in the game.
