Amway - The Way To Go?

Last night I had a presentation from a member of the Network Twenty-One Company, on of the distribution networks of Amway (a leg of one of their 'diamonds' distributor). It sounds very rewarding, but before I jump into it I had to do some research. On the first page of Yahoo results I got to this page of a court case against Amway and one of their other legs. Apparently, a distributor was unhappy because of some of the structures and procedures that were in place (or supposed to be in place but not enforced). Turns out that this leg was mainly making their money from selling motivational tapes and books and signing up new 'distributors' who are 'encouraged' to purchase the whole caboodle.

So you'd better read the fine-print in some of these contracts. And remember a Code of Anything is not a law, but an attempt at peer pressure (who are stronger in the organization, you or all the other peers).

Yes, you can make your money if you put in the effort. Just know before you sign up whether you are willing to live with that or not.

The Scroll Marked II

The Scroll Marked II: I will greet this day with love in my heart!

What am I talking about? I have purchased Og Mandino's The Greatest Secret in the World and am working through it. It is a book, but more, it is a 'work'-book. You have to commit to do daily reading of the scrolls (as found in The Greatest Salesman in the World). I've started reading about 2 weeks ago and am 'stuck' on the second scroll. Actually, I'm not stuck, its part of the process that Og Mandino request from you: That you commit just 10 minutes a day (for 45 weeks) and read through the scroll for the month.

Yes, don't stare yourself blind against the 45 weeks. Rather just go with the 10 minutes a day - its much easier ;)

It is sort of gentle self-brainwashing - more like programming your subconscious mind to behave in a certain way.

Anyways, I'm working through it (persisted now for almost 1.5 weeks :) ) and will give you more feedback on how I greet each day with love in my heart (after all, it is the greatest secret of success in all ventures !! :)

Regards
Leon
