It has been rightly
said that the most difficult thing to teach somebody is the thing which that
person already knows!!
In other words, THE ABILITY TO UNLEARN IS MORE DIFFICULT
THAN THE ABILITY TO LEARN NEW THINGS.
Now, let me come directly to the point I want
to discuss with this post. Many times this happens with our well-trained
associates that somehow, they start complaining about the shortage of guest-list,
shortage of time; they start getting involved in non-productive work or
something else which leads to the shift of their focus to things which should
not be focusing at!! And thus as the law of attraction suggests, this
reflects in their income and consequently your income, which is usually a dip.
What happens now is
that we start focusing on the way they are going about their presentations and
follow-ups and start teaching them all the basic stuff all over again. This gets
more annoying for the non-performing associate as he knows that he hasn’t forgotten
what is being taught now (Although there can be cases where the basics have to
be corrected, but let’s talk in general). What is on the lesser side??-- the
enthusiasm with which the associate is promoting his business or product and it
is the responsibility of the upline / mentor / sponsor of that fragile, immature
associate to keep him motivated and enthusiastic.
Another point o consider now is that we should know that may
be the same kind of motivation won’t work again for a particular associate as
choices and interests change with time and exposure to the world. The success
of a particular person in any field depends more on the excitement and
enthusiasm than talent. The longer one is excited about any particular thing, person
or way of living, closer he/she is to that thing, person or way of living.
Thus we should find ways to keep ourselves motivated and energetic all the time
for our work and people.
One very easy way to do this is to read good motivational
books. Remember, a leader is a reader
and thus we got to inculcate the habit of reading books regularly and we should
encourage our associates to get into the habit of reading good books, articles
or watching motivational tapes and movies. One such movie which I would love to
tell all of you to watch is “THE PERSUIT OF HAPPYNESS” STARRING – WILL SMITH
AND HIS SON JAYDEN SMITH!! WONDERFUL MOVIE. ALWAYS BRINGS SMILE TO MY
FACE, EVEN NOW AS I TYPE THOSE WORDS.
One more habit which we must develop is that we should avoid
company of those people who talk negative or may be if not negative, they aren’t
even positive at all. These people are called the dream snatchers. And doing
this is difficult as most of the times, they are your parents, family members
and best of buddies. But one has to change the company to change the way he
thinks and the way things occur in his life. ONE’S LIFE IS THE AVG OF THE 5 PEOPLE HE SPENDS MOST OF THE TIME
WITH!!!
Another very interesting way is, which I follow, is to be happy
all the time. When the mood gets off, go do something which you enjoy doing. Let
it be talking to a friend, reading a book, watching movie, spending time with
family… anything which makes you feel alive again. I play games. I shut my
outside world and get into video games or some sports. Table-tennis, cricket, swimming
being the most preferred ones. And when you are again feeling delighted, get
back to business!! ANY DECISION TAKEN IN
AN AWEFUL MOOD IS MOST OF THE TIMES AN AWFUL DECISION!! SO CHEER UP BEFORE
DECIDING TO WORK OR DO ANYTHING FOR MAKING YOUR LIFE MORE BEAUTIFUL AND
MEANINGFUL!!
THAT’S ALL FOR THIS
TIME.
