Thanks for this question.
What is the definition of Big Picture?
Brian Bot of Urban Dictionary says:
Quote:
" A view of looking at things which shows the end result or the insignificance of a particular idea or event being evaluated. "
Example:
"Dude! That kid just pissed me off! I think im going to go mess him up, egg his house or something."
"Cmon man, look at the big picture; its really not that big a deal, you wont even care what he said tomorrow so just chill out and go to bed."

Viewed from this angle, let's consider the various situations that we all encounter today.
1. Many sign up; few continues for some time & then vanishes. It affects every one:
- Since our strength remains on the growth of the Team Members, we can do everything possible
so that they will remain active. But for reasons best known to them if they become inactive, we
become helpless. Rather than worrying about them, it makes sense if we try and bring in
more and more new sign ups; This is one side; The other side, we can continue to encourage
every one through regular mails without overwhelming them.
- They may or may not come back. But, we have done the job. That satisfies us and we are still
able to keep building our Team with fresh sign ups.
2. Not getting enough support from the Up line:
- This is another complaint we all come across frequently.
- We joined SFI because we want to grow & have a passive income for life;
- For practical purpose, we are all independent contractors here.
- It means, its our business. The responsibility for our growth remains with us.
- If we do not get adequate support from the up line, then we should think of alternate means
like, learning things ourselves from the Training Materials, etc quickly or go to the Forum on a
daily basis, learn new things, seek new things and keep growing.
3. Not having sufficient funds to have a Standing Order (SO) continuously:
- Every one faces this problem.
- Let's look for ways and means of gathering enough VersaPoints through other means. Let's
study the To Do List again and again, understand how it can be done and then indulge in
practical ways to achieve them. Contributing to Ask SC is one of the means where one can
learn, contribute things and in the process one can create opportunities to receive bonus
Action VersaPoints. Is this not one of the best forms of earning without spending?
Like these, there are so many things which if we do not address them at appropriate times, will detract us from growing. But, having understood the big picture its wise to ignore such things and get on with more corrective and concrete actions based on situations.
Conclusion:
1. Understand the current situations correctly;
2. Take timely preventive or corrective actions;
3. Ignore petty things;
4. Look at the big picture things - "the continuous growth & steady flow of income"
5. Have long range goals;
6. Split them with monthly small Targets;
7. Keep achieving them.
8. Reach your destination.
This is what " Big picture" is all about i.e. ignoring the tiny things, keeping the end results in mind
and not swayed by the current happenings!!
