Consider quitting when your efforts are producing fewer and fewer positive results. You have to recognize the signs of a no-win situation so that you can decide whether or not to persist.

-Are you burning money on tons of company literature and promotional materials? What has this done for you?

-Have you burned through your list of friends and family? Are they walking wide circles around you now?

-How many people have you added to your network marketingbusiness? Are they still there?

-Do you call your upline and 3 Way with him or her when a potential client has a question? Shouldnt you be answering these questions yourself?

-Are you an employee of your upline? I thought you wanted to be in business for yourself!

Even if you are investing enormous amounts of energy into your business, it is almost impossible to salvage a losing situation. The best strategy is to apply your energy to more rewarding activities...in other words, quit.

The more time you spend fighting the odds, the more costly your efforts become. The sooner you acknowledge the reality of your situation, the better you are able to cut your losses.

I know you are thinking that youve already put too much time and energy into your proven plan to quit now, but face it, if it hasnt worked so far, what makes you think it will suddenly all fall into place?

Now, Im not saying to quit your network marketing business, what I am saying is to quit using methods that are not helping it grow.

Habit and inertia are powerful forces that keep you in your old familiar rut. We often regard quitting as a sign of immaturity and weakness. Adults are expected to set goals and work hard to achieve them. Are you remaining in a no-win situation because you are afraid of what others might think? It takes more maturity and strength to admit that things arent going so well, and its time to make a change.

Sometimes we have to lose in order to win. Although failure is unpleasant, we can learn more from our failures than our successes. We can get something positive out of a bad situation by looking carefully at what went wrong, and avoid making the same mistakes again. You can build on failure and move on to future success by quitting while you are ahead.

So take that first step. Recognize what isnt working, and make the decision to move forward and make the necessary changes. You can be successful, if you have the right tools in your hands.

I look forward to sharing some of those tools with you in upcoming emails.


To Your Success,
