Are You A Noun Or A Verb?

At the seminar that I attended this past weekend I came across this quote:

"We are for the most part nouns living a world screaming for verbs."

[We are for the most part objects, things, in a world in need of action.]

I thought this statement was quite profound. As I look to most situations in my life I see this statement as abundantly true.

I was once a part of the main stream corporate world as a sales rep and once I got used to that change from school to the job world I realized that it wasn't something that I was all that excited to be a part of.

In fact, I remember after about 6 months on the job I got up to take a shower and all I could thank was this was the exact same routine that I had followed to a tee everyday for the last six months.

This shook me to the core when I thought about the future. Was this routine all I had to look forward to for the rest of my life?

Furthere, I remember . . .

On my job we were even graded on a monthly basis how well we did exactly what we were "taught" to do - down to the very last word. (Can you say automaton?)

I thought the corporate world wanted me because I was bright, young, and energetic, but all they wanted was another cog in the wheel - a noun.

Well, I wasn't having any of that! (And I suspect you have the same desire or else you wouldn't be reading this email.)

My first encounter with network marketing was really not to much different then my corporate life.

I was giving a task and a script to follow and I was instructed to head out and do it to a tee.

The goal was financial freedom, but in essence the work was no different than my corporate experience - this didn't fit me.

Then came my current MLM.

I created my own plan, my own template for what I needed, and then found the right business to put that plan into action.

In fact I don't think I followed the status quo at all or even asked my upline one question about how I should promote my business. I simply did what I thought was best.

I took action. In fact, I was action - the verb.

And it was from this action that success began to flow.

I'm not saying following the status quo is wrong. The truth is most people out there do what they are told to do, "the job mentality", and live a very descent life for doing it.

All I'm saying is if you want to live the life you dream of you MUST take independent action.

Do it your way and don't give up until you get there.
