What Color is Your Personality?
Everyone on the planet is primarily one or the other of the following personality “colors”. Blue, Green, Yellow or Red. Which one are you? What does this information have to do with network marketing?
Blues are open and direct. They are fun loving people who will tell you like it is. Blues see the big picture quickly. Did I mention they love to have fun? Blues love to party. Blues are scattered. Sticky notes and scraps of paper are strewn all over the desk of a blue. But…it’s an organized mess, they will tell you. The blue will tend to talk too much, be poor savers, and poor at follow through. They are generally disorganized and exaggerate. Blues talk loud and fast. Their dress is colorful and flamboyant. They will wear Hawaiian shirts and “loud” clothes. The blue personality dislikes not having fun. They dislike facts and figures and being alone is torture to a blue. Blues are good promoters. They are convincing, enthusiastic, have lots of energy and are very creative. Blues see the big picture very quickly. They don’t need a lot of facts and figures. If you are working with a blue, you don’t want to bore them with a lot of statistics and data. Give them an overview and let them know how much fun they will have and they will join you in an instant. In order to work with a blue, you need to get them focused. They need lots of direction and redirection. Blues are warriors. Once they are focused and having fun, they will build huge organizations and never quit. Blues comprise 15% of the population.
Greens are the opposite of blues. They are indirect and self contained. They are soft spoken and pronounce their words properly. Greens like statistics and data. More data, more data, more data is what the green personality needs. The green’s idea of fun is creating a new spreadsheet or analyzing data. They are very organized. Greens suffer from analysis paralysis. They are very hard to please. They tend to be depressed and lonely. Greens are good at follow through. They don’t understand how the blue can be so scattered and unorganized. Greens are persistent. They are the planners and organizers. Green’s dislike pushy, aggressive people. They dislike not getting all the facts. They dislike being late. Greens will give you short, one word answers. They don’t expand on them and you have to pull the information from them. If you are working with a green, give them more data, more data, more data. The one who gives a green the most data and the most accurate data wins. Greens comprise 35% of the population.
Yellows are open like the blues, but indirect like the greens. They will answer your questions, but won’t expand on them unless it’s a topic they are comfortable with. Yellows are family oriented. They are the nurturers, the teachers, nurses, and counselors. Yellows are very dependable. Their dress is casual and comfortable and their speech is soft and gentle. They are team players. Yellows are patient, supportive and sensitive. Yellows are generally followers and not leaders. They tend to be overly sensitive. Yellows are not goal oriented. They dislike pushy people, bullies and conflict of any kind. If you are working with a yellow, let them know how they can help others. Show them that you will be there to support and help them. They like to be part of a team. Yellows comprise 35% of the population.
The remaining 15% of the population are the Reds. The reds tend to be the pushy, aggressive salespeople that the most other reds dislike and that the other 85% of the population dislikes. Their motto is “Get out of my way!”. Reds are CEO’s, pilots, and attorneys. They hold high powered positions. Reds are goal oriented, focused and intense. They are hard to coach. Reds have big egos and short tempers. They are dressed is business attire even when it is not required. Reds like money, power and control. They have to be in control. Reds dislike indecision, idle chit chat and losing control. If you are working with a red, stroke their ego. Tell them how wonderful they are and how you are going to love working with them. They love to feel important. Reds comprise 15% of the population.
If you are in a network marketing company, you must have an email geared toward each color. A generic email will probably appeal to whichever color matches yours, but will probably not appeal to the other three colors. You must learn to talk to each color in terms they will respond to. This information will help you in your business and personal life. It will help you to become a better communicator and enhance all of your relationships.

Are you a true leader?
True leaders know that in order to be successful, they must help others be successful. For instance, I am happy to help ANYONE in ANY company be successful, provided they are in a company that is a fit for them. The reason I do this is because I know that I may not benefit monetarily from that particular person, but what goes around, comes around. It WILL come back to me.
Are you a true leader? Are you willing to give of your time to help ANYONE with NO AGENDA? No ulterior motives? No hidden hopes that everyone you help will join you?
Do you need help that comes with no agenda, no ulterior motives and no hopes that you will join me? Get your free eBook at my website. I am happy to help anyone who is willing to reach out and ask for it. Read the eBook, then email me and ask for a free coaching call. My contact info is in the eBook.
Have an absolutely awesome and blessed day!!!

Do you need a mental cleanse?
What is a mental cleanse?
Turn off the TV, turn off the radio, turn off all of the negative "chatter" in your life and get to know YOU.

Can you look yourself in the mirror and OUT LOUD say "I LOVE MYSELF" and mean it?? I can. I love myself. About 6 months ago, I was NOT able to do that without my head saying "You're nuts" or "You don't deserve to be loved" or "Yeah, right, who are you trying to fool".

I have lost over 42 lbs in just a few short months.
A few months ago, my company introduced a diet cookie. Diet cookie??? Didn't make much sense to me. LOL. At least not at the time.
When the cookies came out, I loved them. I started by adding one or two cookies to my diet during the day. After a couple weeks I noticed my clothes were looser.
About a month or so after the company introduced the cookies, they introduced the shakes. First in vanilla. I'm not a big vanilla shake fan, but I tried it and it was delicious. Most other diet shakes I had tried tasted like sawdust. Then they came out with strawberry and chocolate.
OK. To make a long story short, my routine for the past couple months has been:
A shake in the morning
A cookie mid moring
A shake for lunch
A cookie mid afternoon
Whatever I want for dinner
Generally I don't eat the full two cookies during the day so I snack at night on the rest of the cookie. I'm not one to "diet". If I am told to eat low fat and feel deprived, it won't work. I love the taste of food. ;-) So I don't restrict what I eat in any way. If I want an occasional candy bar, I eat one. If I want a piece of cake, I eat one. Granted, I'm not eating as much of that stuff as I was before, but I do not cut it out completely.
My weight loss in the past few months has been over 40 lbs. I started out somewhere above 300 lbs. and am now at 258. I am loving it MADLY.
If you would like to see the cookies and shakes, feel free to visit http://roxanne.appetizerdiet.com/

I just couldn't pass up sharing this one.....
WHAT YOU SEE IS WHAT YOU GET
Visualize what you want. See it, feel it, believe in it. Your mind is your mental workshop. You can build anything you want in it.
Make your mental blueprint and then begin construction. See things as you would have them be instead of as they are.
Use your imagination to perceive your new realityeven when it's not fully materialized. Remember, you must first clearly see a thing in your mindbefore you can do it or have it.
Your imagination will show you how to turn possibility into reality. The beginning of your success is in your imagination. First think, then organize your thoughts into plans. Then transform your thoughts into reality by taking some positive action.
See the things you want as already yours. Think of them as yours, as belonging to you,as already in your possession. Picture yourself as having already achieved your goal.
Dreams and ideas can cross continents and oceans. They go anywhere you can go.

Do you spew unwanted technobabble on your customers?
I talked with someone today about the products her network marketing company sells. She told me her story of what the products had done for her. She then immediately went into spewing about how the company has a CD that explains how the product was harvested by blind leprechauns who scrapped it off of the bottom of a large rock in some unknown country at exactly midnight during the full moon.
Well...those weren't her exact words, but that is what you sound like when you start spewing technobabble on your potential customers. STOP IT.
Just tell your story. Stories are what people want to hear. Create relationships.
Remember - KISS - Keep It Super Simple

Social Networking Sites - How do we make the most of them?
I did an interview a while back with Richard Dennis about how to make the most of social networking sites like myspace. If you are the "in your face" type of network marketer you will turn people off in an instant.
When you go to these sites, create a profile that shows WHO you are, and a little about what you do. Blog about your business or why you are doing this or your favorite product. Don't be hypy and blatant about it in your profile.
Posting comments on someone else's profile advertising your business is just plain rude. If your signature (advertisement) takes up more space than your comment, you are being rude. Stand out from the rest. Be a real person. You will get your profile looked at and that is where you let people know about you and your business. Don't make it all business.
People join people, not companies or products. Create relationships. Let the people looking at your profile know there is a real person and not just some faceless "screamer" there.

Is Your Email Address Hurting Your Business?
Do this little test. Try having someone who is NOT in your address book send you an email that says:
I am interested in making money from home with your network marketing home based business.
If you do not get this email, you have spam filters on your account. Some Internet Service Providers (ISPs) put filters on your email without your knowledge. They believe that they are helping you. If you are in network marketing, you do not need “help” like that.
Let’s say I see your ad or your neighbor Suzie Q tells me that you are in network marketing and I am interested in speaking with you about it. I have your email address and want more information. I email you something with the words “network marketing” or “home based business” or “make money from home” or any of the other words and phrases that trigger spam filters. You will NOT get that email.
The worst part is - it's not just words and phrases that trigger these filters, but links in emails also. Call your ISP. DEMAND that they remove the spam filters. I know that I want to be in control of what I read and what I do not read. How about you?
Have a blessed day!!

Why would you do that???
I’ve been asked this question over and over in the past couple months about our Mentoring For Free program. Why is this free? What do you get out of it? Why would you help people when there is no monetary benefit in it for you?
True leaders know that they must give of themselves to be successful. The mentoring is all free. I had a really bad experience with a network marketing company (there are lots of bad ones out there). My goal is to educate people on what to look for and how to work their business to be successful. Of the people who download my free eBook, half of the people are already in a company and the other half are looking for a company. Those who are looking for a company, I educate them on what to look for and then introduce them to my company. Quite a few of those people join me in business. Some do not and that’s ok.
Of the other half who are in a company, a little more than half of them are involved in a company that will either steal their check (like my old company did to me) or a company that won’t allow them to retire, or a scam. Once they know what to look for and realize that the company they are with is not a fit for them and that’s why they’ve been struggling, they ask about my company and some of them join me.
Of the people who are in a good company, I work with them and mentor them to be successful in that company. It’s my way of giving back. This industry is so powerful. I want everyone to know how to be successful and why they aren’t successful right now. The majority of the time, the cards are stacked against them and it’s not their fault they aren’t successful.
It’s my belief that this industry would be so much more easily done if the people who act like aggressive, pushy salespeople that very few people like, would stop and realize that network marketing is a RELATIONSHIP business. In order to be successful, and especially after you have built your organization and want to keep it, you have to be willing to help anyone who needs help, not just when it will benefit you. I work with a number of people in other companies and people in my company who are not in my “downline”. I am happy to do that.
That’s my philosophy and the philosophy of the Mentoring for Free system. With that being said, I would be delighted to be your mentor and help you in any way that I can if you would like me to.
Have a wonderful day!!

MAKING CHOICES IS YOUR GREATEST POWER
While your character is formed by your circumstances,your desires can shape those circumstances. The one thing over which you have absolute control is your own thoughts. It is this that puts you in a position to control your own destiny.
Nature is constantly at work around you. Character and destiny are her handiwork. She gives you love and hate, jealousy and reverence. You have the power to choose which impulse you follow.
At any time you can decide to alter the course of your life. No one can ever take that away from you. You can do what you want to do and be who you want to be.
Your greatest power is the power to choose.

It's Amazing What You Can Accomplish When You Believe - Pt 3
During the 30 day mental cleanse, we read the book “Think & Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill. Every Wednesday, twice a day, a group of us at Mentoring For Free get together on the phone and mastermind what we got out of each chapter. This process is critical, or at least it was to me. It was very important that I had a safe place to go to let everything out. A place where I could talk about anything and no one would judge me.
If you join Mentoring For Free and start your own 30 day mental cleanse, you will eventually hear my story. It gets told often. I came from a very bad place. I was a basket case. I had tried for YEARS to figure out how to deal with all of the “stuff”. Nothing helped until I found Mentoring For Free. It’s so much more than just a coaching and mentoring program. It’s a life changing program.
I was able to forgive people that I never thought I would be able to forgive. I was able to figure out who I am. I was able to finally come to the realization that I am perfect just the way I am. I love myself and I deserve success!!! Once I realized that it was like flood gates opened and all of a sudden my business took off. All kinds of things are falling into place.
This can be you. You deserve success too. Once you really love yourself and KNOW that you deserve success, you will attract it. No whining. No complaining about how terrible your life is and how you can’t get ahead. Whatever we think about, we bring about. If you have not seen the movie The Secret yet, visit http://www.thesecret.tv/ and watch it today. Learn about the law of attraction. Sign up for Mentoring for Free and find out about the 30 day mental cleanse.

It's Amazing What You Can Accomplish When You Believe - Pt 2
Before I began my journey down the path I’m on, I would wake up in the morning to the television. I would have the television on all day long. Sometimes, I would listen to the radio, but the TV was still on. LOL. Have you ever seen that? TV on and muted and the radio playing? That was me. I needed constant “chatter” around me because I was AFRAID to be alone.
The first thing he said I should do is “turn off the chatter”. Our mind is like a radio. We can dial into any number of stations. In the past, whenever I was dialing into a station that made me take a good look at my life and my past, I would turn the dial. Michael told me I needed to spend time to get to know ME. I was not thrilled by that at all!! I had been in and out of counseling for years and had tons of baggage I was carrying around with me. I had attempted to do the whole “self evaluation” thing before and wasn’t happy with the results.
My first attempt at a 30 day mental cleanse was this – I stopped watching the news, but thought that my soaps and sitcoms were ok. After all, I didn’t “really” watch them, they were just on. And spending time with me – well…if I’m physically here, I’m with me, right? WRONG. I listened in on the calls and heard stories of how people were growing. They were growing in their personal lives and in their business lives. Why wasn’t I having these breakthroughs? Why wasn’t I growing?
I began to evaluate who I hung out with. There were lots of negative people in my life. You know the kind. The ones who sit there and complain that their life is sssssooooo horrible, but they aren’t willing to stop playing the computer games and get off their butts and DO SOMETHING about it. Heck – with network marketing, they wouldn’t even have to get off their butts, just DO SOMETHING. If you continue to do what you’ve always done, you will continue to be where you’ve always been. I’m not sure who said that, but it was one very smart person.
I finally made the decision that I was going to do this 30 day mental cleanse. In our house, everyone watches TV. We have a TV in every room but the bathroom. IT’S ONLY AN 850 SQUARE FOOT HOUSE. Why do we need a TV in every room? I couldn’t tell my family that they had to do something I was not willing to do. I bought one of those screen tents, an outdoor table and chairs. That became my “space”. I couldn’t have quiet alone time with me in the house, so I created it in my yard. Everyone knew that when Mom is in her screen tent – leave her alone. Thankfully, summer was on it’s way and it was warm enough for the kids to be off playing during the day.
I was on my way. I had begun my 30 day mental cleanse.
Find out tomorrow what happened during my 30 day mental cleanse and what that has to do with success.
Until then – have an absolutely wonderful day!!!

Before I began my journey down the path I’m on, I would wake up in the morning to the television. I would have the television on all day long. Sometimes, I would listen to the radio, but the TV was still on. LOL. Have you ever seen that? TV on and muted and the radio playing? That was me. I needed constant “chatter” around me because I was AFRAID to be alone.
The first thing he said I should do is “turn off the chatter”. Our mind is like a radio. We can dial into any number of stations. In the past, whenever I was dialing into a station that made me take a good look at my life and my past, I would turn the dial. Michael told me I needed to spend time to get to know ME. I was not thrilled by that at all!! I had been in and out of counseling for years and had tons of baggage I was carrying around with me. I had attempted to do the whole “self evaluation” thing before and wasn’t happy with the results.
My first attempt at a 30 day mental cleanse was this – I stopped watching the news, but thought that my soaps and sitcoms were ok. After all, I didn’t “really” watch them, they were just on. And spending time with me – well…if I’m physically here, I’m with me, right? WRONG. I listened in on the calls and heard stories of how people were growing. They were growing in their personal lives and in their business lives. Why wasn’t I having these breakthroughs? Why wasn’t I growing?

It’s amazing what you can accomplish when you believe you deserve success.
Around the beginning of the year I was terminated from my previous network marketing company. That is the network marketing company I thought I was going to build a future with. Boy was I wrong. I found out that the replicated websites the company “gave” us when we signed up had what I thought was a glitch in the programming. The company introduced two 15 minute videos to our websites. The problem was – if someone spent over 45 minutes or so on the site, it would “timeout”. From that point on, if the visitor hit the back button on their browser, they were taken to a page to fill out a contact form. This form (unbeknownst to the visitor) was NOT part of the replicating site, but the MAIN COMPANY FORM, therefore, I never saw this person’s request for more information. Well…I immediately emailed the owner of the company to let him know what was happening. Remember, at this point, I thought it was a programming glitch. He emailed me back to say he was out of the country and would look into it when he got back on Tuesday.
Well…needless to say, the company found a bogus reason to terminate me almost immediately upon the owner returning to the country. I was served notice via email on Wednesday that I was being suspended pending termination. The reason they gave was because I “disparaged one of the company employees”. Before emailing the owner of the company, I called the home office. I was met with a customer service rep who, on a different occasion, had no clue what I was talking about when I asked a question about the compensation plan. This particular time that I called, he gave me an answer that had NOTHING to do with the question I was asking. I asked to talk to his supervisor. I asked the supervisor my question and got a much clearer answer than the original rep gave me. I said to the supervisor “I don’t mean to be rude, but so&so is an idiot and should not be allowed to answer the phone.” This was the reason I was given for my termination.
When I joined this company, I agreed to their Policies & Procedures. In the P&P’s it says that I agree to not disparage the company, it’s products, employees, or other members. WELL…I was shocked. I had always assumed (YEAH I KNOW) that disparage meant to be very nasty and negative towards someone. Then I googled the definition of disparage. Here’s the meaning of the word - “convey a negative opinion of”. GUILTY. I conveyed a negative opinion of the customer service rep who did not know what he was talking about. Boy am I glad they couldn’t see me raising my eyebrows!!! That was really conveying a negative opinion of him.
Thankfully, at the time this happened, I had already met Michael Dlouhy. Michael is my mentor, coach and friend. If it weren’t for him and the Mentoring For Free system, I would have been lost. I immediately told Michael what was going on and asked his opinion. Michael was there for me before that day, during the whole mess and after that day. Michael and the Mentoring For Free system have been my sounding board, my mastermind group, my counselors, my team. “My people” as my daughter called some of them at convention. The people in this group – every single one of them – are absolutely wonderful. The Mentoring For Free system attracts the TRUE LEADERS who are willing to go the extra mile to help anyone in any company be successful. Those who want to live a happier, more successful life.
Michael first suggested a 30 day mental cleanse. He told me that in order to have more, I must become more. He told me everything happens for a reason. He told me that if I want to move on and be successful, I must believe that I DESERVE SUCCESS. Well…I was wondering – what in the world is a 30 day mental cleanse? What do I do?
Find out tomorrow what happened during my 30 day mental cleanse and what that has to do with being successful.

Introducing A New Website for the NEW Network Marketer.
I have been listening to and reading books by Kim Klaver for quite some time now. I just love her. Kim teaches how to lead with the product and not the business. She had an awesome post recently called "Would You Like A Dealership With That?". This is a wonderful example of how some network marketers run their business.
Those of us who know there is a better way to work this business have joined Kim's new Network Marketing Central website. Read all about it at Kim's Blog Post. Don't bother going to the site if you are the "in your face" type of Network Marketer. Kim's philosophy falls right in line with what we teach at Mentoring For Free. It's not all about recruit, recruit, recruit. It's about CREATING RELATIONSHIPS.
Have an absolutely wonderful day!!!

Business Models Drive the Behavior in the Field.....
If you're in a network marketing (mlm) company, take a look at your business model. Do you get compensated for retailing (selling) your product? Or do you only get commission on the distributors/business builders that you sign up? If your compensation plan pays the majority of commissions for sponsoring business builders and not for retailing product, the behavior in the field that will drive is recruit, recruit, recruit.
With the 5 Pillars company I have partnered with, we get compensated (commission) based on anything we sell. It does not matter if those sales came from customers or business builders. Customers are just as important as business builders are in the company I have chosen to work with.
I recently read a book by a wonderful woman named Kim Klaver. The book is called If My Product's So Great, Why Can't I Sell It? Kim Klaver (Ms. Stud) teaches us not to be the pushy, aggressive salesmen that most people run away from, but to help others by introducing them to our products.
The majority of network marketing companies out there have good products that can actually help people. BUT, if you wouldn't sell that product to your mom/dad at retail, then you are in the wrong company. The reason a lot of network marketing/mlm companies have to charge so much for their products is overhead. If a company boasts that they have hundreds of people taking orders and a massive building, that is where the money is going INSTEAD OF INTO YOUR POCKET as a distributor.
As a Mentoring For Free success coach, I look at the policies and procedures of network marketing companies every day. I also evaluate compensation plans. Some of these companies out there don't even pay you if you retail your products. They only pay on business builder volume. That's SAD!! And it's possibly criminal.
Speaking of Policies & Procedures, have you read yours?? This is NOT your Terms and Conditions, it is the Policies & Procedures and EVERY network marketing company must have them. This is your contract with the company. I've heard people tell me "They were over 20 pages of very small print and I wasn't about to read all that." I've also (after pointing out that the company's P&P's say you can be terminated at ANY time for ANY reason) had people tell me "Oh - but they won't do that to ME". Believe me, many people have been done in by that clause. I don't know about you, but I want to build a business that will be there to pay my children's children.
At the end of your rope? Tie a knot and SWING!!!

I've been busy lately and have not updated my blog in a while. What's got me so busy, you ask? Well...Vitamark has introduced their Appetizer Diet Cookie. I have been putting my ad campaigns together. I am giving away FREE Diet Cookies to anyone who agrees to let me know what you think of it. The cookie is oatmeal raisin and is DELICIOUS. It isn't very often that you find a healthy cookie that also tastes good. You don't need to be overweight to benefit from the Appetizer Diet Cookie. Even kids are eating it. It is packed with nutrients and high in fiber and protien.
If you would like to get a FREE Diet Cookie, visit My FREE Diet Cookie Site and fill out the form. I would be happy to send you one.
God Bless and have a wonderful day!!!

--Habit--
Your Habits in 2006 and beyond will predict
your Results!
*****************************************
H-A-B-I-T...When 95% of people hear this
word, a negative thought pops up in their minds.
Typically, most people think of a habit being
negative, but not all habits are bad. The secret to
your future lies in your daily habits so ask
yourself right now,
"Are my habits today going to help me
achieve my WHY in life?"
This is a life-empowering question if you
truly ask it and listen for the answer.
I received the following excerpt from a
very dear friend of mine and felt that it is
definitely the best explanation of a habit
that I have ever heard:
I am your constant companion.
I am your greatest helper or your heaviest burden.
I will push you onward or drag you down to failure.
I am completely at your command.
Half the things you do, you might just as
well turn over to me, and I will be able to
do them quickly and correctly.
I am easily managed; you must merely
be firm with me.
Show me exactly how you want something done,
and after a few lessons I will do it automatically.
I am the servant of all great men.
And, alas, of all failures as well.
Those who are great, I have made great.
Those who are failures, I have made failures.
I am not a machine, though I work with
all the precision of a machine.
Plus, the intelligence of a man.
You may run me for profit, or run
me for ruin; it makes no difference to me.
Take me, train me, be firm with me and I
will put the world at your feet.
Be easy with me, and I will destroy you.
Who am I?
I am a *HABIT*!
One of my daily habits that is the foundation
of my life is investing 45-60 minutes each
and every morning feeding my body physically
by exercising and feeding my mental spirit by
reading or listening to a motivational message.
This habit warms me up for the day ahead.
Everyone washes their physical body
and feeds their body every morning,
but 95% of people will find an excuse
about why they can not find the "TIME" to
invest in a habit of feeding their MINDS!
This parallels the statistic that 97% of people
are dead or dead broke by the age 65.
I consider this particular daily habit to
be the driving force behind my ability
to consistently maintain intense focus on
the journey of success and living a dream life.
Is it easy all the time?
Of course not, but when it
becomes a habit – you will do it!
If you commit today to begin each morning
warming yourself up for the day
ahead by feeding your mental spirit, your
entire life will change in a positive fashion
very quickly.
It is like driving a race car
with the emergency brake on and you try to
go ahead, but you can't move.
You stay in the same location with your
wheels spinning, burning up, making a lot
of noise, but not going anywhere!
All it takes is to release the brake
and you will fly towards your WHY in life!!
You need to review what your habits are
and ask yourself…
“Would I recommend MY habits to someone
I truly love and care about?”
Your entire future lies in your daily habits
—positive or negative.
You have the most powerful force right
now in your hands, the ability to decide
what your habits will begin to be.
