Yep, we have become a worldwide society of personal and immediate gratification. Things are SO easy for us... every crumb of information we could ever seek is at our keyboard fingertips. Do you remember when calculators were not allowed at school? Do you remember when we learned to read real clocks with minute and hour hands?
If you grew up on a dairy farm you probably milked before dawn...by hand. And your animals were fed before you had dinner. And your garden was weeded, corn or wheat were harvested..whether you felt like it or not.
Please don't misunderstand: I'm not knocking technology or the ease to which we've become accustomed in our lives today. I am saying that we don't generally like to do things that require effort and/or that are uncomfortable.
Things like picking up the telephone and pitching our network marketing businesses. Things like going out at night or on our lunch breaks to do business presentations. Things like working weekends. Guess what? To get ahead you are going to have to do some things you don't really want to do.
The other thing I've learned about the network marketing industry is that we have the choice to build our businesses fast or slow. If you want to procrastinate on making calls, go ahead. It's OK. The only one who suffers is Y-O-U.
My suggestion: Get used to doing things you don't want to do... soon those things will be second nature, and your bank account will be growing!
