Today was not the clear day that I enjoyed yesterday. It was foggy and confusing and I lacked a sense of the big picture. I had a heavy conversation with my husband instead of engaging contacts on Facebook. I didn't get my 3-5 Facebook posts in (but I did get 2). I didn't reach anyone when I made my attempts at 3-way calls w/ my upline coach, which I couldn't get a feeling for anyway. I feel much more comfortable engaging contacts on Facebook with a script my upline coach gave me.
BUT I MADE A SALE! Crazy! It's true: your successes never come from where you think they may. I have a friend who I found out sells Mary Kay products part-time. I knew she was "taken", so I was very open with her about my experience with network marketing. I asked her if maybe I could listen in on her 3-way calls sometime for practice. On her way out the door from dropping off her daughter for a play date, she brought up that she's the heaviest she's ever been, and she wants to lose weight. I told her I could help her with that, and she agreed to take a call the next evening (tonight).
It went gloriously! My upline was very helpful, and my friend was very eager and very ready to make a change in her life. So we sold a Challenge Pack. She hasn't gone "coach" yet, but I succeeded today.
You have no idea how many books I want, feel I NEED to read right now to prepare myself for what I'm doing. I'm reading about the first year in network marketing, about Facebook for Dummies, about healing my posture, about non-violent communication, about metaphysical healing, and I'm not even done with the list. I'm at a very precarious time right now: I can't see the forest for the trees, but I know I'm in the forest, and I know that the forest leads to success, so I'm walking steadily and diligently through that forest, a few steps every day. And that is how I've heard success happens.
