Hello MLM business professional! Have you been thinking about what the second essential element might be? Yesterday we spoke of starting with the right foundation, certain basic beliefs or philosophies.

There is one other essential element you require to achieve success in your MLM business or any other dream or goal you may have.

Obviously, we can’t know everything in advance, right? We can’t plan every little detail, because many things will happen that will require us to make adjustments on the journey.

We know we require a solid foundation to start from which is our beliefs, our acceptance and understanding of universal principles. We need one other essential element, no matter what actions or path we take.

The other essential element we require, in addition to our beliefs or philosophy, is a crystal clear vision of where we are going.

In Jeff Olson’s book, “The Slight Edge”, he speaks about how one of the most amazing, sophisticated pieces of engineering created by man, a rocket to the moon, is off course 97% of the time.

It requires constant corrections during it’s journey to reliably reach it’s destination. What is it then that is the guide?

It is a crystal clear vision that there is the moon and it’s specifically where I’m going.

In order for you to reach where it is you would like to be, you can’t know everything that will throw you off that path. You can, however, create a crystal clear vision of where you are going, so that you can make those constant corrections along the way.

Below is a quote from Brian Tracy’s “Focal Point” book on the importance of the quality of vision:

“In 3,300 studies of leadership, seeking for the common qualities possessed by great leaders throughout the ages, researchers found that the one quality all the studies had in common was the quality of vision. Leaders have vision.” 

So how do you do this and achieve exceptional MLM business success?

First, as Brian Tracy says in his book “Focal Point”, you need to engage in value clarification. You need to know what your core values are and make sure your vision is aligned with those core values.

For example, my most fundamental core values are -

  • A belief in lifelong learning & personal development
  • A passion for excellence
  • A belief in teamwork, masterminds & relationships
  • Prosperity & abundance for all through undivided integrity

I have more values, but everything flows from these. Once you are clear on your values, you create a crystal clear vision that is aligned with your values.

You then require to work backward from that vision to set goals that will measure how well you are performing along the way, and help you make the necessary course corrections in your journey.

As you can see, much of the in between stuff you will figure out between point A (your beliefs) and point B (your vision). (We’ll get more specific about the one daily action and the one skill set required to achieve massive success in your MLM business within the next two posts.)

Without both being honest about your beliefs and having a crystal clear vision of your destination, you may start far from where you need to start, or end up somewhere completely different than you would like to be.

If you have any doubt of this concept, most of us can look at our lives and see the undeniable truth in this.

If you are not where you would like to be today, it is most often because yesterday’s beliefs did not lead you to the necessary actions and/or you had no clear vision of where you were going.

And I’m not just picking on you, because this has certainly been true for me. I am still working to really distill my vision down to it’s ultimate level of clarity today. You can find the intitial overview post of this series here –
