All Work And No Play Makes Jack a Dull Boy.
by Tristram Lodge on Jul.08, 2010, under MLM Mindset
It’s a statement that rings so true with me at the moment.
I have just returned from a fantastic 2 weeks trip to Myrtle Beach, South Carolina where myself my wife and my son were visiting my brother and his wife.
They have lived out in the USA for 12 years now and with me being in the UK we don’t get to see that much of each other so I was really looking forward to the 2 weeks away.
Being away for 2 weeks I could still update my blog, check on my Facebook and reply to any messages I received.
Well that was the plan until my wife found me packing the laptop the night before we were to leave. Basically I had 2 options, the laptop or my wife and son.
No brainer really, but to be honest I thought how am I going to cope with my laptop for 2 whole weeks.
But to be honest I never thought about it once, no really, I was having way to much fun with the family to think about it which brings me on to my point.
If you are a full time earner with your network marketing business then you have a choice and more importantly an opportunity to spend your time how you wish.
Most people in their lives don’t get that opportunity. They are slaves to the bank manager and their boss.
So I’m glad my wife told me to leave the laptop at home and enjoy a holiday with my family. I have come back feeling fresh and recharged.
It’s shouldn’t be all about work, work, work. It’s about getting that balance between your family and your work. By spending as much time as you can with your family and letting your business take care of itself.

What You Post In Facebook Groups Really Says About You.
by Tristram Lodge on Jun.16, 2010, under Facebook
Last week I read a great post by Fontella Williams where she is fighting back about the spam that she and everyone receives on Facebook when they get a friend request.
Check out Fontella’s blog post “Warning: YOUR Facebook Requests Are Being Denied!!” and please leave a comment and share her post as it is well worth reading and I guarantee that your Facebook friends will love it.
This got me thinking and yes I am going to get on my soap box here because everyday people are posting the same ads for the same business opportunities in the same groups.
Before I get into the spam and what it really says about you as a network marketer if you can be called that is why on earth would you want to do this type of marketing.
Firstly, you post these ads in groups where there are 100s if not 1000s of other network marketers. Those network marketers, for the most part will have their own business already and they will more than likely be happy with that business.
Now what makes you think that they would give up what they are doing, drop everything and sign up with you?
You don’t offer anything that they already have. They will still have the same problems and the same trials to overcome.
Think about what you are offering, it’s like trying to sell ice to the Eskimos!
Check out these ads below and read what they say in their ads. I have blanked out the names to protect the ignorant.
So what do you think this says about the people who post these types of ads in groups on Facebook. Here is what it really says:
“Hi, I am a new network marketer and I have no interest in you or building a lasting working relationship with you. All I am interested in is how much money you are going to make me. I am completely lazy as I can’t even be bothered to learn how to build relationship with people. I have found this great opportunity that you can make me a lot of money and if this one does not work out don’t worry because I will find another scheme next week to join which I know will let you make me a lot of money. So how about whatever your name is, let’s get started”
Check out the bottom ad, 160,000 people in this person’s smart line! That’s 160,000 lazy people that this person has attracted to him. You post stuff like this and you will attract like minded people.
Attraction marketing works like this even if you have no idea what attraction marketing is because you will attract lazy people to your business and people who are desperate, needy and hopeful.
You don’t need to post this kind of stuff, it will never do anything for you and if you want to build a successful business you really want to be attracting successful people to you to work with.
Now I going to get of my soap box and stop ranting!
Keep posting you blog content, motivational quotes and hints and tips that actually help people and their business.
You know who you are that’s posting this great content, let’s all stick together and educate the uneducated.

Day 4: What My Son Has Taught Me About MLM – Determination
by Tristram Lodge on Jun.11, 2010, under MLM Mindset
Welcome to day 4, the last day of what I have learnt from my son over the past year.
If you have missed any of the others days, go to “Day 3: What My Son Has Taught Me About MLM – Persistence” and you can read the other posts by clicking the links back to day 1.
OK lets get started with todays post and I want to talk to you about determination and what it means to me and you in our network marketing business.
My son is coming up for 1 year old and he never crawled, but he is nearly walking. So much so that thats all he ever wants to do at the moment.
Through his determination he will be walking around unaided within the next couple of weeks. Yes he will fall over a the start and quite alot I will imagine but he will get back up, dust himself down and go again until he gets it right.

Day 3: What My Son Has Taught Me About MLM – Persistence
by Tristram Lodge on Jun.10, 2010, under MLM Mindset
Welcome to day 3 of what I have learnt from my son over the past year. If you missed yesterday “Day 2: What My Son Has Taught Me About MLM – Routine” follow the link to check it out.
On to today and we will be talking about persistence and how learning from our children and their persistence can help you with your business.
As we know children can be extremely persistence when the want something or when they are starting out learning how to do something. Thie thing that stands out for me with my son was when we switched him from drinking from a bottle to a becker.
Even when he was on his bottle he would try and grab the bottle from your hands and feed himself.
Eventually he got it right, why due to his persistence to learn how to hand the bottle and put it in his mouth.
If at first you don’t succeed, try again. That’s what you should be doing in your business. You will get knock back and there are things you will have no idea how to do but through your persistence you will achieve your goals.
