welcome to network marketing Pro my name
is Eric warry and this time of year is
one of my favorite times of year and let
me tell you why it's very introspective
for me uh I think
life has its
rhythms and one of the rhythms of my
life
is at the end of every year I look back
at the previous year and then I also
plan
forward um for the next8 18 months or so
so I look
back in you know the last 12 months what
have I accomplished how have I grown I
look at the positives you know what are
the lessons that I've learned what are
the things that I might want to make
sure I don't repeat what are the what
what's the good what's the challenging
what were the weak spots what were the
strong spots not to beat myself up but
to just kind of look and
be
reflective on what's happened in the
last 12 months and also be brutally
honest with
myself you know was I efficient was I
contributing was I growing was I did I
lose focus did I get distracted
different parts of the year what are the
rhythms in my life because what I've
noticed is the patterns that over the
years tend to
repeat you know somebody some people
will have a pattern of losing all of
January because they're just gonna post
uh New Year's Funk before they get going
or some people will you know when the
summer comes they lose two months
because they buy into the fact that
people aren't interested in opportunity
in the summer for some crazy reason or
when the kids get back to school or
something they lose they lose some some
time there in the in the fall season or
coming into this holiday season some
people lose some Effectiveness there so
the triggers that knock people off track
the triggers that that cause people
people not to be efficient take a look
at those so as you're reflecting I'm I'm
going to give you some suggestions here
and the first one is to reflect take
some time now and
reflect what's the the achievements of
the previous year what are the lessons
of the previous year what are the
patterns of the previous year what did
you learn in the previous year take a
take inventory of your existing group
what does your leadership in on your
team look like how many customers do you
have what's the strength of the team
that you do have is it duplicating is it
not duplicating are are the people in
your group attending uh your your
company events or are they not attending
your company events are they raving fans
of your product or are they not raving
fans of your product be honest when
you're looking at all of these things to
reflect and to take inventory this is
taking inventory personally taking
inventory on your
team and really be honest as you look at
this because be being honest and looking
for the patterns is going to help you
create a better game plan isn't it so
this is a time for me that I that I
spend
reflecting um stage
one to kind of look back in our busy
season I just take take a day and just
look back and evaluate take inventory on
your life and your
business um and
then the thing that excites me is I look
forward and I start to map
out the next 18 months or so of my life
I mean we talked about this in the title
of the show is how to map out the next
12 months that's fine I like to go a
little bit more I like to go
2017 and another six months okay the you
know the 12 calendar months and another
six just to kind of stretch a bit and
then we'll adjust a year from now but
during this year what are your
objectives what do you want to
accomplish personally let's start there
personally how do you want to grow what
are your personal goals what are your
skill goals your emotional management
goals your leadership goals as far as
what you want to become okay and then
second take a look at your
team you know what how many raving fans
do you want to have by the end of the
year on your on your product how many
people do you want to have attend your
company convention how how much
duplication how many people at all the
different ranks do you want to see
promoted out within your organization
over the course of this
year yeah the personal development goals
of your team communication platforms and
goals and recognition and everything
else what take a
look and when when I do this my future
plan is about this thick typed it's
usually about 40 pages or so and it
includes everything and today more than
than ever what you find with top leaders
what you T find with successful people
is they they Forward Thinking their
future thinking and that that future
starts to pull them towards those
objectives so I set my goals pretty high
and I've set my calendar far in advance
I'm planning I still have some
spontaneity room for spontaneity but
more and more as the the the demands on
my time are are growing exponentially I
have to plan and and what I've I've done
this for gosh 25 years to look back and
look forward look back take inventory be
honest and look forward and map it out
so I want you to think about short-term
midterm long-term goals for you
personally and for your team you know
what's your what are your your next 8 18
months look like when it comes to how
many books are you going to read how
many classes you going to attend well
how many skills you going to learn what
are the skills that you want to learn
how many people you going to have attend
your events how many people you going to
have on those at the different customer
levels how many people are going to be
moving through the ranks how many people
are you going to personally
recruit what systems need to be put into
place what culture needs to be built
inside of your organization write it all
down map it all out and start to attract
it to you once you get it on paper the
ACT of doing that will really move you
in a direction now this isn't something
that you're going to do in an hour not
if you're a serious business person this
is like a business plan for your life if
you're a serious business person this is
going to take you'll start in a day but
and you'll go back and you'll tweak and
you'll add and you'll tweak for me it's
something that takes a week or two
weeks to be able to really lock down now
understand it's still written on paper
it's not chiseled in own as soon as it's
done I start adapting I start adding to
it I start editing it I start working on
it but I have a working document I have
a business plan for my life and my
business and that business plan itself
provides tremendous peace of mind I have
a calm as I enter the year not a stress
I have a calm because I know that I've
mapped my life out so we're going to
focus on 2017 but we'll stretch it a
little bit farther just for the exercise
of looking a little bit deeper into your
future and then a year from today we'll
adjust and do it again okay so will you
take that challenge my challenge to you
is do your take your inventory look back
and then map out your next 18 months
look forward if you'll do that and if
you're honest and if you're
Visionary you can create the best year
of your personal and professional life
you can expand your network marketing
Empire exponentially in the next next 18
months if you don't think that you can't
change your life that you can change
your life in the next 18 months I
promise you you can 18 months you can
literally change your family history for
forever 18 months can change everything
if you will go through this exercise and
begin okay so in this holiday season do
