Bible believers know that anything that is going to last in this world is going to need a solid foundation. The essence of this statement is a spiritual one, but holds true in all areas of human endeavor. This truth is critical in business, and mandatory for the believer who seeks to honor the Creator.
When beginning a foundation it is important to establish your cornerstone. This massive stone will remain as a constant reference point. Indeed the whole building is built around this piece. If you've attempted a networking type of venture before, then you have heard this called your "Why". Why are you going into business in the first place? Your "why" could be any of a number of things.....financial freedom, time freedom, family, vacations, power boats, Italian race cars in your garage. But ask yourself why you desire those things. Is it to provide yourself the flexibility to serve others, or is it to quench your own covetousness? Be careful here. The time to shape your cornerstone is before you have stacked a lot of rocks on top.
A secular humanist may be able to achieve a lavish lifestyle based on a "why" that is all about himself, but the Child of God must consider others as more valuable than himself. That being said, incomes of 6-7 figures per year are achievable when the rest of the building blocks are correctly assembled.
In order to succeed in a highly competitive market, you will need some key ingredients. These elements are: An excellent and valuable product(s), Team support and training, An effective marketing system and strategy, some natural talent, patience, coachability/teachability, some money to work with, and Faith.
Keep in mind, that although the marketplace is competitive, the market itself is of mindboggling proportions. Millions of people every day are searching for products and opportunities. Every 11 seconds somebody has just started a home business! So, let's break it down.
