St Louis, Here we come!

On our way to St. Louis for Carmen's manufacturer's national convention. It will probably be a lot of fun. I will get down to the Harrah's Casino at least one night to play some poker. I am not sure what to expect from this event, the one last year was at Las Vegas and I am not sure how in the world you can beat Las Vegas. However, the event last year was an international event which replaces the national convention every 5 years. Carmen, is really excited this is her second time going to a convention as a distributor. She has done really well for herself and is probably in the top five single outlet distributors in the whole world. Her store did over 250 pieces this month the manufacturer's record is, 308 pieces by any one distributor in a 30 day period. Carmen, may very well eclipse that very soon. I am extremely proud of her. I have seen her come along way but I know she can go much further if she so chooses.

She is pretty nervous I think. She was asked to speak at this event and was given 15 minutes. Most people will never be invited to speak at this event and she was extremely honored with the invitation. However, now she is confused on what to speak on. Most everybody is telling her to give the standard talk about getting referrals, having positive attitudes, leadership, etc. Carmen, really wants to be honest and talk about what has really changed that has made her successful which has been applying the training that Dani Johnson has taught. Carmen, studies Dani very carefully she watches her DVDs, listen to her audios, and of course going with me to many of her LIVE events.

She has been telling other distributors about Dani and it just surprises her that as well as her store is doing more people don't really pay more attention when they ask, "So what are you doing differently?"

She responds, "I have hired a business coach?"

Most people respond with, "Oh O.K."

She gets frustrated because people don't really understand that Income Follows Personal Growth. You will not make any more money than you are making now, until you grow personally. One way to drastically increase your personal growth is to get coaching and training that will help you increase it. If people don't listen to her that is fine, it just means that there will be less competition for her. The same thing applies for Coastal Director's, people don't improve their personal development and they choose not to go to Dani. I have done all I was morally responsible to do. I told them about it. The rest is up to them!
