Follow My Lead

Follow my lead, follow the leader, lead by example, and leaders in the industry are phrases we hear constantly in life, but do you actually do it? Most people don't lead especially in a 9 to 5 job. Most people in a traditional job are told what to do by a higher up and just follow the leader. Basically do it or you don't have a job is what I've come across over the years. Many of you that are starting out in network marketing are students right now, learning how to put all this together, but eventually the student must leave the temple.

What am I talking about? Well, I believe that we are always learning, and what we learn must be passed on. So when the student does leave the temple he becomes a teacher whether they share their knowledge or not, and there are many who are teachers but don't teach. I'm not saying you have to have an academic planner or be in a classroom. I'm talking about small things that make you a leader.

When changes happen, like a different phone number for a meeting or conference, or someone gets stuck not knowing what to do next in this business, it's your job not as a leader but as someone who has been there as a newbie to guide them to the right concept. It might not be the only concept but what you know guides those who are with you. As with the different phone number, it's your duty as a leader to notify your members of the number change. If you never alert someone about a change in the business then not only can they not succeed, you can't either! This is not about being on top of your game, this is about growing as a person.

Leadership is more than telling people what to do. To me it's about helping, helping those that were where you were. It's better to give than to receive. You've heard this many times probably but the words ring true and if you never really thought about this phrase, I suggest you start giving back in anyway possible, by being there for those in your business, helping and nourishing thought with your members. When they get it you get rewarded with more than income, you get rewarded with the knowledge that you have tools people believe and want. So follow my lead and go out and start helping those that want to learn. My help to all of you is the link I have on my blog page for a very helpful book called "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill.
