UPDATE 1/24/2020  It is hard to believe that the review below
was written 11 years ago, and today Donald Trump is President
of the United States.

However I think there is a lesson here.

You can go back to the eighties when I was trying to communicate
to my team member this concept

“Leadership cannot be part of the Group”

You could also say

“Leadership cannot become part of the Swamp”

You can here a podcast session I did on this
concept here:

The review that was written way before
Donald Trump was president,  clearly shows
what I felt about him as a potential network 
marketing company owner, and human being.

However, that has nothing to do with what type
of business persona, or President he may be.

Please read that sentence again.

Just because I may not like his tract record as
a human being is no reason I should ignore
the positive impact he has had on the economic
growth of the United States.

The numbers are the numbers!

Only a fool argues with numbers (FACTS)

Throughout my business career I have been fascinated
by those that can’t get past their emotions and look at
the facts.

At one point I thought that was just a phenomenon that
happened within the network marketing profession.

As I have gotten older, I realize it is everywhere.

People make decisions basted upon their emotions and 
a What’s in it for me? mentality.

Then they attempt to justify those emotional decisions
based upon Facts.  When they can’t find the facts to 
justify their emotional decision, then they just make
them up.

We have been watching this go on since the day Trump
was elected.  People that don’t like him for whatever
reason, have been trying to run him out of office since
the day he was elected.

What does he do?

Does he care?

He just keeps on tweeting and leading, at it drives
emotionally  driven people crazy.

The talking heads, understand the masses are headline
readers, therefore they can be yanked around by their
emotions.

That is the same reason sales within the network marketing
business model have declined the last 3 years. What?

How can these two factors possibly be related?

When good people don’t bother to ask themselves.

Do I really need to blog everyday so I can be perceived
to be a network marketing professional?

When people don’t take the time to really work their way
through it using their own common sense and looking at the
amount of time they actually have to build a team they
end up wasting endless hours.

I am not talking about blogging, I am talking about all
the worthless advice that is spewed on the internet
daily.

The profession is full of people that are trying to
teach people how to do, that which they have
never done!

But Ray Higdon told me that is what I needed to do!
I cannot tell you how many times I have heard this.

Well he is also the same person that told people on
a live, public webinar

“I am going to teach you how to become a well 
paid network marekting consultant, even if you
have never sponsored your first person or acquired
your first customer!”

So what, you were the #1 Earner in a pyramid
scheme that called themselves a network marketing
company.

Isn’t the real question, how many people have you
personally sponsored and trained that became
full time earners?

I am not picking on Higdon or any one else, I
am just restating their own words, and asking
myself why anyone would ever listen to another
word out of their mouth?

But I ask myself this daily in business, in and out
of the network marketing niche, in politics, religions,
and on and on.

Please understand.

The network marketing and home business niche. like
most others is.

FULL OF PEOPLE THAT TELL YOU WHAT YOU WANT
TO HEAR, SO THEY CAN SELL YOU WHAT THEY 
WANT TO SELL YOU!

I realize this is socially acceptable, but it doesn’t make
it right.

The most important question I have learned to ask
myself over the years is:

Who is this person, and why
should I be listening to them ????

I cannot tell you how many times I have asked people, did
you get out your calculator and take a strong look at the
compensation plan before you joined this company?

Have you checked on Amazon and eBay to see if people
are dumping their products there?

Do you know the REAL BACK STORY of the mentor
you have chosen?

I could go on and on, but I won’t.

This is not a political message.

I just felt it was a great time to attempt to communicate
in greater detail.  That leadership is a responsibility
that Donald Trump does not take lightly.

If you are not willing to look at each situation
objectively, and examine the Facts then the
network marketing business model may not be
for you.

I have been shocked over the years at the number of
honest, intelligent people that are involved in business
models that make no sense.

Now may be a good time to take another look at

THE 3 Step Blueprint for Choosing a Network Marketing
Opportunity

As I write these words, here is what I know for sure.

70% of the people that watch that video will attempt
to make their company fit into that blueprint.  They
will attempt to justify their emotional decision with
facts.

When the Facts don’t match up with their emotions
it is easier to blame the messenger than it is to
make changes.

We see this in mainstream media daily.

I know many of the people that read what I have
shared will probably never listen to another word
I say, and I am ok with that.  Really I am.

I will never be accused of telling you what you
want to hear so I can sell you what I want to
sell you.

I have been around long enough that every
week I hear.

I wish I had listened to you when I first heard 
you 10 years ago, but the first time I heard
you, you really upset me.

I don’t have the energy or time to
Make MLM Great Again.

I have done all I can do over the years
understanding exactly what is going on.

We should have drained  the MLM Swamp
back in 2000 when I first released this
audio.

So I will get off my rant for now, but here is the article
that was written 11 years ago, if you are still interested.
