Plan-Do-Review

One of the big concepts that has served me well for many years is called Plan-Do-Review. It's a powerful tool and very few people actually use it. It's become a major cornerstone of my life and here's how it works:

You come up with a Plan. You Do it. Then you Review it to see if you can make the next Plan better.

Then you Do the better Plan. Then you Review the results again to see if you can make the next Plan better. It's a never-ending cycle.

In Prospecting, Plan-Do-Review.

In Presenting, Plan-Do-Review.

In Recruiting, Plan-Do-Review.

In Getting People Started, Plan-Do-Review.

In Training, Plan-Do-Review.

In Leadership, Plan-Do-Review.

It works in literally every area of your life... a constant polishing of your skills.

Amateurs tend to do one of two things:
1. They Plan and Do but then just repeat the same thing over and over again without seriously Reviewing to see how they could get better.
2. They never Plan but just Do what they're told. Do do do do do. And when things don't work out, they blame blame blame blame blame.

Professionals Plan-Do-Review in all aspects of their business.

Reasons We Lose Motivation!!!

There are 3 primary reasons we lose motivation.

1. Lack of confidence - If you don’t believe you can succeed, what’s the point in trying?
2. Lack of focus - If you don’t know what you want, do you really want anything?
3. Lack of direction - If you don’t know what to do, how can you be motivated to do it?

How to Boost Confidence
The first motivation killer is a lack of confidence. When this happens to me, it’s usually because I’m focusing entirely on what I want and neglecting what I already have. When you only think about what you want, your mind creates explanations for why you aren’t getting it. This creates negative thoughts. Past failures, bad breaks, and personal weaknesses dominate your mind. You become jealous of your competitors and start making excuses for why you can’t succeed. In this state, you tend to make a bad impression, assume the worst about others, and lose self confidence.
The way to get out of this thought pattern is to focus on gratitude. Set aside time to focus on everything positive in your life. Make a mental list of your strengths, past successes, and current advantages. We tend to take our strengths for granted and dwell on our failures. By making an effort to feel grateful, you’ll realize how competent and successful you already are. This will rejuvenate your confidence and get you motivated to build on your current success.
It might sound strange that repeating things you already know can improve your mindset, but it’s amazingly effective. The mind distorts reality to confirm what it wants to believe. The more negatively you think, the more examples your mind will discover to confirm that belief. When you truly believe that you deserve success, your mind will generate ways to achieve it. The best way to bring success to yourself is to genuinely desire to create value for the rest of the world.

Developing Tangible Focus
The second motivation killer is a lack of focus. How often do you focus on what you don’t want, rather than on a concrete goal? We normally think in terms of fear. I’m afraid of being poor. I’m afraid no one will respect me. I’m afraid of being alone. The problem with this type of thinking is that fear alone isn’t actionable. Instead of doing something about our fear, it feeds on itself and drains our motivation.
If you’re caught up in fear based thinking, the first step is focusing that energy on a well defined goal. By defining a goal, you automatically define a set of actions. If you have a fear of poverty, create a plan to increase your income. It could be going back to school, obtaining a higher paying job, or developing a profitable website. The key is moving from an intangible desire to concrete, measurable steps.
By focusing your mind on a positive goal instead of an ambiguous fear, you put your brain to work. It instantly begins devising a plan for success. Instead of worrying about the future you start to do something about it. This is the first step in motivating yourself to take action. When know what you want, you become motivated to take action.

Developing Direction
The final piece in the motivational puzzle is direction. If focus means having an ultimate goal, direction is having a day-to-day strategy to achieve it. A lack of direction kills motivation because without an obvious next action we succumb to procrastination. An example of this is a person who wants to have a popular blog, but who spends more time reading posts about blogging than actually writing articles.

The key to finding direction is identifying the activities that lead to success. For every goal, there are activities that pay off and those that don’t. Make a list of all your activities and arrange them based on results. Then make a make an action plan that focuses on the activities that lead to big returns. To continue the example from above, a blogger’s list would look something like this:
1. Write content
2. Research relevant topics
3. Network with other bloggers
4. Optimize design and ad placements
5. Answer comments and email
6. Read other blogs

Keeping track of your most important tasks will direct your energy towards success. Without a constant reminder, it’s easy to waste entire days on filler activities like reading RSS feeds, email, and random web surfing.

When my motivation starts to wane, I regain direction by creating a plan that contains two positive actions. The first one should be a small task you’ve been meaning to do, while the second should be a long-term goal. I immediately do the smaller task. This creates positive momentum. After that I take the first step towards achieving the long-term goal. Doing this periodically is great for getting out of a slump, creating positive reinforcement, and getting long-term plans moving.

It’s inevitable that you’ll encounter periods of low energy, bad luck, and even the occasional failure. If you don’t discipline your mind, these minor speed bumps can turn into mental monsters. By being on guard against the top 3 motivation killers you can preserve your motivation and propel yourself to success.

Spot The Leader!

To identify a good leader, see if he has these 10 essential qualities!!

No organisation can rise above the quality of it's leadership. Because leadership is a position that must be earned day in and day out, there are important personal choices that both new and experienced leaders must make on a regular basis.

Effective leaders are, first and foremost, effective people. Personal ethics cannot be separated from professional ethics. Therefore, the character of the leader is ESSENTIAL.

The following list of 10 characteristics is a valuable guide for quality living, in addition to being an important criteria for leadership.

1. A High Standard of Personal Ethics.
This quality leads the list. Honest Abraham Lincoln, who walks miles to return a customer's change is a classic example of how personal ethics are reflected in professional conduct. Decisions made under pressure and/or temptations separate the great leaders from the impostors.

2. High Energy.
Great leaders are not exhausted from dealing with petty issues. These people know right from wrong as well as the difference between what is truly important and what is merely interesting.

3. Walking The Talk.
The ability to work on priorities shares equal importance with setting priorities. many brilliant priority list end up in the landfill of life. The difference between setting priorities and working on them is the difference between a dreamer and a doer.

4. Courage.
The willingness to take risks and accept responsibility for the outcome is a consistent quality among effective leaders. Either you or your fears will control everything you do. An organisation will be no bolder than the leader.

5. Dedication
Committed and dedicated hardworking leaders will eventually develop dedicated and hardworking organisations, regardless of whom they start with or the experience they bring to the job.

6. Creativity.
Unorthodox leaders have an urge to create and do not have patience to deal with red tape before acting. Effective leaders are innovators who get bored easily and prefer shaping tomorrow to repeating yesterday.

7. Focussed.
Great leaders have the goal orientation to make tough decisions. Goal orientation produces drive and energy that shield them from the pain of the task. Keeping an organisation focussed increases efficiency.

8. Genuine Enthusiasm.
This is contagious. People look to their leaders for enthusiasm. The inspiration level of the organisation is directly proportionate to the enthusiasm of the leader, be it high or low.

9. Cool Under Pressure.
Level headed people make realistic leaders who respond to problems rather than simply react. A leader ho can stay cool under pressure inspires confidence among those in the organisation and empowers them to do the same.

10. Caring.
The desire to help others succeed is the mark of a truly great leader. Synergy is created when a leader truly invest his efforts in the success of others. Motivational speacker Zig Ziglar says: "People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care about them."

Whether you are trying to increase your own effectiveness as a leader or are trying to develop leadership talent within your organisation, keep studying the characteristics of those you consider to be great leaders.

Remember that Leadership is a ART, not a Science.

The difference between a genuine effective leader and a short-term motivator can be found in the personal decisions an individual makes when choosing how to liv his life.

Long-term commitment to the principles described above will produce an effective leader and over time, an inspired organisation - source: ST/ANN

These are the Qualities that VXL Leaders must develop 
- to be able to lead and inspire success.

Managers Are Made, Not Born

Companies (Uplines) need to train Managers (Team Leaders) how to handle and motivate their subordinates (Team Members)

Imagine the following scenario:

* You pay a visit to your doctor one day and in the course of the conversation, he lets slip that he has no formal medical qualifications? However, he tells you not to worry because he has been involved in the "doctoring" business for years and has had lots of experience and read several books on the subject.
I bet you would be out of his clinic like a shot.

* You want to employ a car mechanic to look after your company vehicles. One application tells you how good he is at fixing cars and trucks. "Been doing it for years," he says, adding that the only thing is that he has not served as apprenticeship noe has he had any other form of formal training.
Would you give him a job? Of course, you wouldn't.

In network marketing, where the most important and most expensive asset - the team players - have you considered that the primarily goal is to build trust in your team members?

You would have realized how often when familiarizing new team members, that we took the traditional route - getting them to do stuff like planning, name listing, prospecting, problem solving and dealing with objections.

However, none of the above will help your new team member to motivate his new team/ new business.

"Tiger Woods has a natural talent for golf but he has been listening to trainers and coaches for years and he still does."

My question to you is... Would you?

So, if you want to make your life successful at managing people (to achieve MLM success), i suggest you do the same: get the coaching and training you need and keep on learning - be open and be coachable.

80:20 = DREAMERS: ACHIEVERS

The Pareto principle (also known as the 80-20 rule, the law of the vital few ) states that, for many events, 80% of the results flow from 20% of the causes.

You can apply the 80/20 Rule to almost anything, from management to the way we live.

Pareto's Principle, the 80/20 Rule, should serve as a daily reminder to focus 80 percent of your time and energy on the 20 percent of your work that is really important. Don't just "work hard", work smart on the right things.

The simple fact is not everyone can be a famous artist. Not everyone will start a million dollar business, however you can work smarter TODAY to find greater fulfillment, and that is what living an 80/20 lifestyle is all about. Best of all, your likelihood of becoming one of the famous artists or entrepreneurs is enhanced if you adjust your life to follow the 80/20 Rule whereby you will tap into what you do best more often than NOT!!

TURN AROUND UNDERPERFORMERS

When you want to turn things around for your team, start from scratch. Here are three steps:

1. Discuss the team's performance. Recognize the heroes and their achievements. Then clearly outline problem areas where the team must make dramatic improvements. If you soften your message, you won't communicate the situation's urgency.

2. Break with the past. Assure reps that no matter how bad things were before, from now on, everyone can be a winner. The past is over and things are going to change dramatically--if everyone is willing to take necessary steps.

3. Ask for a commitment. Set new goals that are attainable, yet higher than they used to be. Reps may afraid at first, but they'll soon become proud of what they accomplish and begin to recognize that they really can be winners.

How PEAK Performers Take Control Of Their Lives

They are disciplined and highly motivated. Here's how you can be too.

Is your work and life organisation out of control? Do you read all the management books but still never seem to have enough time?

Take a page out of the peak performer's book of life and hear what they do to organise, choose tasks wisely, execute well, achieve highly and enjoy their success at the same time.

Here are 10 mental game success strategies that peak performers use in self management.

1. Know what motivates you.
Top performers know what makes them tick. They know what it takes to get the creative, competitive juices flowing. They know how to tap their passion and create the energy for a project. They assess what motivates them and then seek opportunities to match those energies.

2. Be aware of your options.
People who race through their day are like a race-car driver. Te view around them is a blur. Slow down to notice your options and sense new opportunities. You create this clear focus by starting each day and each task with a quiet time that realigns you with your purpose, mission and values.

3. Train yourself to act promptly.
Reflection, planning and strategising are essential. When the time comes to act, the peak performer goes for it enthusiastically - he pulls out all the stops.

4. Realise that you never arrive.
Listen to high achievers and they all say that they wish they knew early on that success and happiness are not something "out there" in the future. Success is striving towards a goal while being content and grateful for what you have today.
Seek your dreams with reverence for the gifts you have been given now and do not put happiness off until something "better" arrives.

5. Use success to energise yourself.
Do you celebrate only your large successes? Do you downplay the smaller, day-to-day victories? Peak performers celebrate both and more. They seek opportunities to reinforce their efforts so that they are continually energised and motivated to stay on track and to perform at higher levels.

6. Realise that life is a do-it-yourself project.
Peak performers do not wait for anyone to save them, coach them or help them overcome obstacles. They of course seek help as needed, but first and foremost they take an "I must help myself first" approach to life. They realise that success begins and ends with them, and that the initiative in helping themselves first.

7. Understand that life is not a dress rehearsal.
Life is short, life is unpredictable. Life needs to be lived today, in the PRESENT! Peak performers carry a continual sense of mortality around to remind themselves that every second is precious. Therefore, everything they do deserves their best, highest-quality effort.

8. Get ready to act!
Peak performers use rituals or psych-up systems to prepare themselves for springing into action with laser focus. They purposely take time before any "performance" to mentally, physically and emotionally get ready so that they can operate optimally for that special moment.

9. Write to stay on track.
Top performers use a written journal to sharpen self-awareness, dream, savour victories , make corrections, set goals and objectives and have a private confidant.

10. Stop Procrastinating!
To ignore something you must do is like making a decision not to do it. Peak performers strive for the mental discipline it takes to make reasoned decisions, to hold themselves accountable and to minimise the number of tasks that they "forgot about".

Your Mental Game Plan

What action will you take this week to become better at self-management? Here are three steps to get you started:

1. Think of a system you can use to become more organised. can you hire a coach? work with a friend? write in a journal?

2. Celebrate your successes more often to create energy and momentum for achieving your goals. Instead of waiting for the "big" success at the end of the month, quarter or year, think about what you can view as a success worthy of enjoying every day.

3. Translate what you have learn about yourself into immediately useful action. Learn to motivate yourself, create more urgency to achieve, enjoy the process more, and get more done.

Peak Performers create a healthy sense of urgency to propel themselves along their exciting path. take a page out of their book and write your own success chapters in that very important book - of your life.

What Makes You Eat More Food

Seven ways our bodies tell us we're hungry--even when we're not

Time of Day
Through routine, we condition our bodies to expect breakfast, lunch and dinner at the same time each day, says Randy Seeley, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Cincinnati." Part of the reason you're hungry at noon is because that's the time you've eaten for the last 100 days."

Sight
Research using MRIs shows that brain patterns of people viewing photos of foods they like and foods they don't like are "very different," Seeley says. "The body anticipates when food is about to enter the system." And that's why your mouth starts watering when you see Mom's pie.

Variety
Even after eating a large meal, we often "make room" for dessert, because a desire for sweets hasn't been satisfied. Ann Gaba, a registered dietitian at New York Presbyterian Hospital, says that sometimes all it takes is a bit of fruit in a salad during a meal to curb a sugar craving.

Smell
Scent is one of the key ways we cue our bodies that food is near. Once the trigger goes off, it can induce the insulin secretion that makes us think we're hungry. Says Sharron Dalton, a nutrition professor at New York University: "Smell and sight alone activate the appetite cascade."

Alcohol
Drinking has not been scientifically proved to stimulate appetite, but too much beer, wine or liquor can impair judgment, causing us to eat more. "Most people who are on a diet will say it's a lot harder to push themselves away from the table if they've been drinking," observes Seeley.

Temperature
The colder the temperature, the more people tend to eat, which is why restaurants often keep thermostats low. "Your metabolism drops when it's time to eat, and eating warms you up," says David Ludwig, professor of pediatrics at Harvard. "Heat is a satiety signal."

Refined Carbs
After a meal heavy in refined carbohydrates, like white pasta, the body may crave food again within only a few hours. These foods cause blood sugar to drop, and "when our blood sugar is crashing, we're going to be a lot more interested in food in general," Ludwig says.

Anti-Aging Gel Serum - to help firm your skin, reduce lines and wrinkles, and bring your skin back to its healthy natural colour. 



A Gel Scrub - to gently remove dead skin, exfoliating without the painful acid wash. 


To accompany these two main products, there are five others in the Ageless Skincare line to keep your skin looking refreshingly beautiful. These are: 



Daily Cleansing Gel Formula - so you can wipe off the day’s make-up, plus all of the other impurities that the environment forces into your skin. 



The Anti-Oxidant Misting Gel - which will hydrate your skin, plus gently remove the day’s worth of dirt and grime from your skin. 



The Agel Age Defying Eye-Gel - keeping the area around your eyes looking as refreshed as possible, smoothing the little worry and squint lines that have developed over the years. 



Nourishing Night Gel - to add nutrients to your skin, rejuvenate the production of collagen, giving your skin more elasticity, and helping you produce more healthy cells.



The Daily Moisturizer - to get you through an entire day, plus help fight toxins with the added antioxidant vitamin E.

Can't Wait For MIN

Hi! I've just joined Agel and I've been taking EXO everyday. I'm feeling great! Just can't wait for MIN to come to our shores and I'll be taking that too! Here's some info on MIN to share with you.

MIN:

Look Great and Feel Better MIN - The "Vitamineral" Power Pack

Vitamins and minerals are vital to healthy living. They function as coenzymes and cofactors that are involved in nearly all biochemical processes in your body. When you aren't getting the vitamins and minerals you need, your energy goes down and your health suffers.*

Unfortunately our diet today is big on processed, refined, and treated foods. And many of these items have little or none of the vitamins and minerals that we need. Airplane meals, fast food, and microwave dinners only make the problem worse.*

Supplementing your diet with vitamins and minerals has never been more important than it is today. But if you're one of the many who has a hard time gulping down pills and capsules, this isn't easy. And how can you know that the pills you do choke down are actually providing you with the nutrients that you need? Not to mention the bad taste, horrible smell, and inconvenience.*

Now you can get the nutrition you need, without having to swallow huge, foul-smelling, or bad-tasting pills. Agel MIN is a perfect formulation of your daily vitamins and minerals. Not too much and not to little - just the right blend of what you need to look great and feel even better. MIN provides 100 percent of the recommended daily intake (RDI) of essential vitamins and as much as 50 percent of the RDI of the essential minerals.

Typical supplements in pill form may not be fully absorbed, but thanks to Agel's suspension gel technology, these vitamins and minerals are readily absorbed and digested. All of the minerals used in Agel products are Albion chelates. The Albion chelation process takes a mineral and binds it to and wraps it in amino acids. This allows your body to easily absorb the minerals, which it otherwise would have a hard time doing.

No more money down the drain and no more pills stuck in your throat. With MIN, the amount of nutrients on the package is the amount of nutrients you get! Agel's MIN is available in boxes of 30 Gel Packs (a 30 day supply).

I am Chan. I am Agel!
