I'm working on a page to put up my photo on the
website and tell you a little bit more about
myself. I've been working on that for a week now
but my progress was slow. And, I was also busy
with a lot of other stuff.

Hopefully I get it done this week... <smile>

Pretty short this time, but that's all I have.


Happy networking and have a great week !

Warm regards,

2. ARTICLE - Keeping a Journal - One of the Three Treasures
    to Leave Behind
=====================================================
 

Keeping a Journal - One of the Three Treasures to
Leave Behind (excerpts from "How to Keep a Journal"
audio series by Jim Rohn)

If you're serious about becoming a wealthy,
powerful, sophisticated, healthy, influential,
cultured and unique individual, keep a journal.
Don't trust your memory. When you listen to
something valuable, write it down. When you come
across something important, write it down.

I used to take notes on pieces of paper and
torn-off corners and backs of old envelopes. I
wrote ideas on restaurant placemats. On long
sheets, narrow sheets and little sheets and pieces
of paper thrown in a drawer. Then I found out that
the best way to organize those ideas is to keep a
journal. I've been keeping these journals since
the age of twenty-five. The discipline makes up a
valuable part of my learning, and the journals are
a valuable part of my library.

I am a buyer of blank books. Kids find it
interesting that I would buy a blank book. They
say, "Twenty-six dollars for a blank book! Why
would you pay that?" The reason I pay twenty-six
dollars is to challenge myself to find something
worth twenty-six dollars to put in there. All my
journals are private, but if you ever got a hold
of one of them, you wouldn't have to look very far
to discover it is worth more than twenty-six
dollars.

I must admit, if you got a glimpse of my journals,
you'd have to say that I am a serious student. I'm
not just committed to my craft, I'm committed to
life, committed to learning new concepts and skills.
I want to see what I can do with seed, soil,
sunshine and rain to turn them into the building
blocks of a productive life.

Keeping a journal is so important. I call it one of
the three treasures to leave behind for the next
generation. In fact, future generations will find
these three treasures far more valuable than your
furniture.

The first treasure is your pictures. Take a lot of
pictures. Don't be lazy in capturing the event.
How long does it take to capture the event? A
fraction of a second. How long does it take to
miss the event? A fraction of a second. So don't
miss the pictures. When you're gone, they'll keep
the memories alive.

The second treasure is your library. This is the
library that taught you, that instructed you, that
helped you defend your ideals. It helped you
develop a philosophy. It helped you become wealthy,
powerful, healthy, sophisticated, and unique. It
may have helped you conquer some disease. It may
have helped you conquer poverty. It may have caused
you to walk away from the ghetto. Your library, the
books that instructed you, fed your mind and fed
your soul, is one of the greatest gifts you can
leave behind.

The third treasure is your journals: the ideas that
you picked up, the information that you
meticulously gathered. But of the three, journal
writing is one of the greatest indications that
you're a serious student. Taking pictures, that is
pretty easy. Buying a book at a book store, that's
pretty easy. It is a little more challenging to be
a student of your own life, your own future, your
own destiny. Take the time to keep notes and to
keep a journal. You'll be so glad you did. What a
treasure to leave behind when you go. What a
treasure to enjoy today!

To Your Success,
Jim Rohn

3. ARTICLE - 'Don't Let Prospects Slap You Around'
=====================================================


'Don't Let Prospects Slap You Around'
by Hilton Johnson

People often ask me how to deal with prospects
that use voice mail to screen their callers and
what to do when they don't return those calls.

Generally speaking, I work (and I coach people)
to work in multiples of three. Three strikes and
they're out. Disqualified. Scratched off my list
...forever.

Below are examples of three messages I usually
leave on voice mail to a prospect who has seen
my program; has indicated an interest; but I
get a voice mail message every time I call:


Call #1: 'Hello, Mr./Ms. ........, this is
Hilton Johnson calling. You recently had me
explain my network marketing business to you and
you indicated an interest in my program. Would
you please give me a call so we can discuss if
we should go to the next step or not. My number
is, 555-1234. Thanks.'

If I don't get a response within 48 hours, I
call again and leave this message:


Call #2: 'Hello Mr./Ms. ........., this is
Hilton Johnson calling for the second time
regarding the network marketing business you were
interested in. If you are no longer interested in
this project, that is no problem. I don't want to
pester you.

Would you please give me a call and let me know
if you want to pursue this or not. My number is,
555-1234. Thanks.'

If I don't hear from the prospect within 48 hours
of the second call, he or she gets this message:


Call #3: 'Hello, Mr./Ms. ........., this is
Hilton Johnson. This is my third and final attempt
to reach you regarding the network marketing
business you were interested in. I would appreciate
if you would give me a call one way or the other.
If I don't hear from you within 48 hours, I will
assume you are no longer interested and I will
take you off of my list and not call you again.
My number is, 555-1234. Thanks.'

That usually gets their attention.

Folks, there are two ways to have fun in network
marketing: One way is to make a lot of money.
The other way is to disqualify prospects who try
to slap you around.
