If there's one thing that's become crystal-clear to me recently during the past several months - it's the dilemma of finding the time to do my MLM business.

With the advent of coordinating the construction of a room-addition on our house, having my wife spend five weeks in the hospital to delay the birth of our twin boys, and then have our boys spend two months in the hospital intensive care nursery, AND constructing a website for my wife's home- based business...life has been - to put it lightly...busy.

But you know what?

We're all 'busy'.

And to you, as a beginning networker working that list of MLM leads you just bought, those are all just excuses.

Especially if you're the person on the other end of my phone and were wanting me to join you in your fledgling MLM home- based biz-op.

I'll explain...

If you asked me to join you on your path to success with your main company and I came up with all that stuff in order so that I could give you the impression that I was 'just too busy'...well, it would just be MLM human nature for you to view all that as another excuse from a prospect.

MLM human nature that would cause you to say "NEXT!" and then move on to your next cold-call prospect.

But what if I said to you something to the effect of...

"I can't do that MLM stuff right now, the basketball finals are just starting on four satellite channels."

or...

"I'm in the middle of reading this really cool book, call me later."

or...

"I can't do that prospecting stuff in the evening, I have to go to bed early so I can get a good night's sleep and be rested for work tomorrow."

or...

"I can't make those calls to those fresh MLM leads on the east coast first thing tomorrow morning. I have to have breakfast and read my daily morning newspaper."

Pretty lame excuses, eh? I wouldn't blame you if you wrote off anyone saying that kind of stuff.

But you know what?

How many of you 'busy' yourself up with that kind of stuff on a daily basis?

How many hours a week do YOU spend watching the television, or reading the newspaper or that favorite novella every day or still thinking you need eight to nine hours of sleep EVERY night?

I'll hazard a guess that most of you do. Heaven knows, I did at one time.

There was a time before I got serious about networking and working my MLM business that I too thought that I 'had' to watch 2-3 hours of television every day. And sleep a good eight hours in order to feel rested and last through the next day. And to get up and start my day by reading the depressing news in the newspaper for about a half hour to an hour.

I did this EVERY day.

And then I'd complain that I didn't have enough time to 'do things'...

...Like work my new MLM business.

...Like prospect for prospects.

...Like contact the ones that wanted me to contact them.

...Like read the stuff to help me be strong in my business dealings.

...Like work the phone and call back people who had left messages for me to call THEM.

When I realized that there was only going to be one way that I would 'find' more time in my days...things changed.

My MLM business changed.

How I spent my days changed.

The results I had in life changed.

Instead of sleeping 8 to 9 hours every day...I decided that I only needed 4 to 6 hours of sleep to get through each day.

Instead of reading the newspaper for almost an hour every day...I read books that built me up as a human being and that benefitted me in every corner of my life. Not just my MLM business.

Instead of watching 2 to 3 hours of the tube every day ...I now watch about one hour of television A MONTH.

Am I bragging?

No.

Was it tough to give this stuff up?

It was like coming off an addiction. It was as if someone was asking me to give up a piece of my-self.

Was it worth it?

Darn right it was!

So...

Can you do the same?

Only you know the answer to that one.

How badly do you want to find the hours to work your MLM business each and every week?

How badly to you want to stop hiding behind the excuse that you're 'too busy'?

How badly do you want to move beyond where you are now (which incidentally is a continuing repeat of where you were many times before)?

It takes persistence, guts, and the 'gotta wanna' drive in order to fully change your life.

Change what you want...and you change your thoughts.

Change your thoughts...and you 'change' your mind.

Change your mind...and you change yourself.

Change yourself...and you change your life.

Change your life...and you are MAKING your world.

What world do you want to make from now on?....

How badly do you want your world to include a viable, working, successful MLM business venture that takes the heat off of you to provide for yourself and/or your family in this world?

How willing are you to start looking for where you can find that 7 to 10 hours to begin a genuine effort to give yourself what you desperately want to hold in your life.

Freedom.

Lifestyle.

Health.

Family.

Peace of mind.

(fill-in-the-blank).....

If you've already trimmed your life like I'm talking about above, then Bravo! for you.

But,....

If you haven't, then I offer you these last few words.

If you've read what I've written and you think that I'm absolutely wacko for writing it and you're going to hit the 'back' button on your browser right now...all I ask is for you to think about one thing tomorrow, before you do anything drastic.

When you get up tomorrow morning and are reading your daily blast of 'news' while eating breakfast...

...and you're relaxing in front of the television after your busy day at the J.O.B. or after a long day at home looking after the rugrats...

...and when you are hitting the sack at night for your daily long dose of zzzz's....

...think about what I wrote for you today.

Ask yourself --

-- "How is this activity (T.V./sleeping/junk reading) helping me get what I want out of my MLM business?"

After asking that and after thinking about it, if you discover that you are in the eeniest, tiniest, smallest way wondering how to make this MLM stuff work out better for you...

Begin with this small step...

Begin to change your life by changing what you want. You'll find that 'finding the time' will become second nature for you. Those seven to twenty hours EVERY week will just pop up in your life like magic.

And just wait until you discover for yourself what you can then 'busy' yourself with trying to fill them up.

Hmmmm....

Your MLM business, perhaps?...
