What Network Marketing and Super Bowl XLIII Have In Common

You may be scratching your head about the title of this article and asking "What DO Network Marketing and Super Bowl XLIII have in common?" There was one play in particular that really brought it home to me. Let me explain.

It was the last play before Half Time, the Cardinals had the ball and were ready to run the ball right into the end zone, the last play of the first half. What happened next was a history making play. If you saw it you know what I'm talking about. The Steelers gained possesion of the ball, made a 180 degree turn and ran a history making 100 yard touchdown. It was amazing to see.

Still scratching your head?

Here's my point. All those guys train hard to do what they do. They all played their hearts out. What made the difference in that play? The Steelers player, Harrison trusted his coach and did what he was told to do even though he sometimes resisted what the coach told him to do.

You see, one of the commentators during halftime mentioned that Harrison didn't like the fact that the coach wanted him to drop back during a play like that. A lot of the time he resisted (and complained about it), but he always did what he was asked to do. Look at what happened. Harrison took the coach's direction and the Steelers are Super Bowl Champions (again) because of it. 

 How often in Network Marketing do we have a coach or mentor who has been in the business way longer than we have. They have the experience. They have a successful business and yet we don't want to follow their advice.

Even though using the internet for our Network Marketing or Home Based Business is relatively new, there are people who have been wildly successful at it, but some of us still tend to dig in our heels and want to do it our way.

In this new model of Internet Network Marketing it's important to be coachable and teachable. We have to lay a solid foundation and practice the basics. Every day, it's in our best interest to practice the fundamentals until they become a part of who we are. It's even more important to take action on what you've been practicing.

 We need to listen to the folks that paved the way for this new model of Internet Network Marketing. Even more important than listening, is taking action and doing what experts like Ann Sieg, Mike Dillard and Mike Klingler are teaching us how us to do.

It's a new day guys. Those that will succeed are those that listen and then do. Think of the Steelers and that amazing touchdown. Success is yours. Take the ball and start runnin'.
