"Success is not a destination we arrive at, it is an attitude we hold along the way". -Caterina Rando

Isn't it true that if more black women in network marketing expected success to happen in their business, we would make more phone calls to potential clients and prospects, schedule more appointments to talk about our business opportunity or products, follow up with existing customers and invest more time and money into our training and self development? And wouldn't those actions result in more business, more confidence and more overall success in our network marketing business?

These are the questions Caterina Rando, DSWA Success Center Director, speaker and personal coach, posed in an excellent article she wrote about the importance of going for what you want all the time, every time and being proactive and confident as you would be if you knew you could not miss!

Caterino went on to explain that it is our responsibility to make the offer. It doesn't matter what the thoughts or actions of the other person are; it doesn't matter whether they agree to what you are offering or not. What really matters is that you go for what YOU want, with the mindset that you will get what you want!

Remember, as a woman of color building your direct sales or network marketing business, you are the promotor of your products or services, your business opportunity. It is your responsibility to share what you have to offer with others....period. When you have this type of attitude or mindset, you are expecting success to happen because you are doing the necessary actions to grow your business. You are also bringing what you believe to be is something of value to the other person, it is up to them to say yes or no. The only way you will know if they are interested, is to expect success by offering them your product, service and/or business opportunity.

Success is not a destination we arrive at; it is an attitude we hold along the way. All the joy of our professional lives is not in the outcome, but in the process. Do not rob yourself of the satisfaction that lies on the path along the way. Instead, enjoy every call that you make, every order that you take, every presentation you make. Revel in the process of being a success TODAY!!

I give great thanks and gratitude to Caterino Rando for sharing great words of wisdom with us and reminding us that reall success happens along the way...respect and enjoy the process:-)
