“Focusing on the positive”.
"It seems that every six months more or less the question is posed in the forum regarding our teams. The question stems around the inactivity of their team. “Why” won’t they do more? Etc, etc…. or how can I encourage them? What rewards can I offer?
Well the responses run from, giving gift certificates, t-credits, etc. etc…….
For MOST of us, MYSELF included this is unreasonable! Why? We joined SFI to earn MONEY, not give it away! Let’s face it, we live in a society of handouts, people expecting and believing that everyone else owes them something. I’ve given away gift certificates, T-credits, I’ve done all the above to, “INCENTIVIZE” affiliates. BUT, and this is the BIG one! When affiliates don’t log into their accounts and work their business these incentives are futile.
Most affiliates are looking for, “JOBS”. SFI is a business! So how can we help affiliates? Change their mindset. However, affiliates have to be “OPEN” to CHANGE! They have to have a willingness to learn. Without that, all of us are paddling upstream. My point is this, don’t beat yourself up for someone else’s lack of a willingness to learn and/or change.
Focus on the affiliates who are asking for help, LOGGING IN DAILY, working their business. Focus on the positive. Here’s another interesting fact, for those in your downline, PSA’s and CSA’s, if your affiliates are not logging in daily, they're not reading this! LOL!
We have to laugh at the ridiculous sometimes, clear away the negativity and focus on the positive, that’s when you are going to see a change in your organization, you’re going to start attracting and recruiting positive people in your organization.
When I’m out speaking with people, in general, not even about SFI, if I get a sense that the person is negative and has a “VICTIM” mentality, I get as far away from them as possible! I’m not wasting my time on convincing this person, (family member or not) about SFI.
I’m not nor will I ever surround myself with this mentality!
There are a ton of books in all the languages of the world that speak about this principle. “Like attracts like.” So what are you attracting? Often times the biggest change is in ourselves. I have to remind myself, “What am I attracting in this world?”
This answer is also a reminder to myself to stay, “focused on the positive” Focus on what I want and let the universe bring that to me.
