Path Finder or Path Blocker?

You know, the Network Marketing profession is misperceived by many and one of the misperceptions is that it is a selling business.

It’s not a selling business.

It’s a teaching, coaching & professional development business. Leaders are developed and blossom if they really want it and rewarded amazingly well financially and otherwise.

If you’d like to capitalize on this simple but effective thought, become a great leader – become a Path Finder. The word Leadership is derived from two words:

Lea – Path
Der –Finder

One of the lovely things we deal with as leaders is the “high maintenance leader” so I wanted to include this on the lifestyle blog as it’s reality!

High maintenance leaders have enormous mood swings – now that’s fun to deal with.

Their inconsistent behavior keeps people on edge, hinders their timing with decision making and takes their focus off of important priorities. It actually wears people out. They tend to think of themselves first which is simply a maturity issue. I’m the ultimate optimist so why am I talking about these challenging types of leaders? Well, I want to manage expectations for you rising leaders that are so awesome so you know what to expect.

In order to be a great leader, you’re always “on duty”.

1. Always responsible , every day.
2. Always setting a positive example.
3. Accountable for oneself, sure- but also for others
4. Subject to others’ exaggerated opinions
5. Must always serve.
6. Valued by Production always.
7. Face continual people challenges.
8. Always thinking of others

Sound like fun? Well, I know that the road to reach leadership is well compensated when you choose to do it.
