There is always a danger of emphasizing truths about SFI without presenting the need for discernment. We emphasize the FREE aspect for signing up as a customer or as an affiliate. Rarely do we mention the fact that there is a tremendous amount of work that must be done in order to reach the dreams of financial security. Therefore, a day or two into the program, a large percentage of signups, get a few points---and quit. They never look at SFI as providing thousands of dollars worth of benefits--over and above the FREE entry into the program. These benefits have to be seen as PAY. We pay $1000s of dollars for an education and don't complain because we are NOT GETTING PAID FOR FOUR OR MORE YEARS. With SFI, unless we are getting $1000 or more in our initial month or two, we are dissatisfied, being oblivious to the worth of the education the company has made available to us. The majority of those that become inactive have never looked at the LaunchPad, the benefits of it and the ease of points made.

Thus, prospect needs to be prepared for WORK and NOT AFRAID OF WORK. He must have a certain amount of patience. He will positively succeed if his expectations are not unreasonable. Will it take 4 years to succeed? It depends on what he considers success. It is up to the individual. Do they want to apply a certain limited amount of money toward their SFI business (in College, it takes a GREAT DEAL OF MONEY) to make this home based business succeed? These business expenses are deductible--the first year in this business may be "just break even" but the only reason it will fail is because of a lack of confidence--in self, in SFI, in the TEAM you belong to. Don't begin unless your plan is to stick it out.

This being said, you may find it somewhat difficult to find committed individuals for prospects. It takes determination to work when others are not determined. Just be careful not to give the strong delusion that SFI is "sailing down the river". There are always things to overcome--even going downstream." Are YOU an OVERCOMER? Are you able to find others who are overcomers? Or are you looking for someone to sign in for FREE?>

Anybody can see the active participation you have had in SFI. They may not understand fully what is entailed at the moment. But it certainly is proof of growth within a known period of time. It is also a measuring stick at a glance of how your individual progress compares with others who have been in SFI for the same period of time. It is almost like a race which the badges show where you are in the race--and what you must do to catch up.

So, use it as a guide for your progress toward your goal.

I was taught to place the inactive people on the back burner and focus on those that have enough interest to login a minimum of once per week. In the early months they should be interested enough to finish out the LaunchPad lessons averaging one per day. That gives them 480 points and a lot of know how. The applicant's interest can be evaluated in many ways. Do they respond to your laying out a path for them to follow, as sheep follow a shepherd. Teach them a simple path and they are less likely to get confused with all the avenues available on SFI. Anticipate the many variables in a conglomerate of world-wide persons. Don't over-expect. Try to learn, if possible, the reason for their inactivity and help them overcome problems.
