Before I get accused of plagiarism, something for which I have high distain, allow me to tell you that I found the information below on Evan Carmichael’s site. It is taken from an article, same subject, by author Cyle Greenwell.  Ok, now that I’ve given credit where credit is due, how’s about we get on to finding out what separates successful people from unsuccessful people?

Step 1: Follow the proven system. If you wanted to be successful in real estate, wouldn’t you find someone who’s successful in real estate and then do what they do?

Step 2: Don’t quit. A lot of people quit their direct sales business before they can become successful.  They think they are going to get rich quick, but when that doesn’t happen, they quit. No successful direct seller ever thought to themselves, “If I don’t make it big in the next six months, I’m going to quit.”

Step 3: Be a Fisher rather than a Hunter. Being overly aggressive means that you are a hunter. When an animal is being hunted, it runs because it doesn’t want to be caught and killed. When you are fishing, you attract people. (note: there is much more excellent on point info on this fishing analogy in the original article).

Step 4: Work hard. Your direct sales business may be a flexible, lucrative business; but it’s still a business. It’s not a hobby. It takes good old fashion hard work.

Step 5: Work harder on yourself than you do on your job. Your business is limited to the size of your own personal growth. Income rarely exceeds personal development.
