Wow, that’s all my mind can articulate now as Day 2 came to a close.
Randy Gage kicked off Day 2 with a topic on Local Leadership. He defined leadership as causing people to do things willingly that they normally would not do. I learnt about the Roles of Leadership in this profession of Network Marketing and having the knowledge to know that you can see the greatness in everyone but not everybody wants to be a leader. He showed in precise details, the 5 levels of leadership.
Chris Brady followed right behind, as usual turned the whole audience laughing and kept them laughing through out his presentation. He read statistics why business fails and I learnt that I have not really failed until I blame someone else. He ended his presentation beautifully with a story of a man , scuba diver by profdession, who looked for spanish gold around Florida keys for 44 yrs with the government against him, losing one of his sons to scuba diving accidents, only to achieve his dream in 1985 when one of his sons called him to tell him that they had discovered the treasure, and the man’s daily motto was “Today is the day”.
Sarah Robbins, a former kindergarten teacher, first time speaker at the Mastermind was the next speaker and she showed us how hungry she was for success and how coachable she was also. She typed prospecting to looking for Gold.
Richard Brooke, stood up to the podium next and talked about the bad name distributors give Network Marketing. He showed clips of interviews of distributors talking about how the product they were using took away all their pain and problems and he strongly advised not to do that because the product does not work on everybody the same way.
After the Lunch break, we had several break out sessions with different speakers, then the day was climaxed with a presentation “Start Starting and Quit Quitting” by a powerful couple, Orrin and Laurie Woodward.
Laurie gave a vivid description of her and Orrin’s stormy marriage years, how she had to learn to change herself, the committment she made to herself. We will always have obstacles in front of us , we can decide to veer off the road and quit or we can decide to keep going on and go over the obstacle.
Orrin told us to find the victory in every defeat. You know that you can be really bad at something but if you persist you WILL succeed. The Only limit that really matters is the limit that we have set in our head. He ended with a final thought that greatness lies in each and everyone of you, and I MEAN YOU.
I cant wait for the 3rd and Final day, It will surely be ‘the bomb
