There is no denying it, if you’re in network marketing, or you are currently looking at it seriously as a way to generate more income, you’re probably entertaining the following thoughts:

1. How much Will I get paid?

2. When will I get paid?

3. How about if it doesn’t work?

Now of course, at first glance, these questions appear to be extremely logical and reasonable. But the “sponsoring” thoughts behind these questions is, is this going to be a “sure” or “secure thing”.  That’s really what’s behinds peoples thoughts. So when they get into network marketing and things don’t start moving fast enough, (ie. I need my paycheck by Friday) they turn around and quit and start looking for another “Job”, or other network opportunity hoping things will be different and claiming that they were scammed.

Think about it. I remember when I was working construction back in the day, when I was 19. I hated my first job, more like my boss, with a passion. Mind you, I was working inside in an interior contractors office, and that man was so mean to the employees, he just made me want to quit. But I desperately needed the money because I was already living on my own at the time, and on South Beach, none the less, and I had just bought my first car on my own. So there were alot of things hanging by a thread for me.

Needless to say, I got my “walking” papers right after I had bought my car and I was worried about what I was going to do. But as my luck would have it, another opportunity arose, and another Contractor ended up looking for me, hiring me and I ended up making even more money.

The point here, however is, that I had no cushion in the background. I couldn’t fiddle around, I had to step it up and start networking so that I could get a job and get paid in time to make my next car payment and rent payment.  Getting another Job, it was “secure”. I would have never dreamed of starting a business under those circumstances because I needed to get paid, yesterday! (and most people join opportunities with that exact mindset!)

And if you back it up for a second, losing my first job, I didn’t really see that coming. So it just goes to prove that “nothing” is secure, not even a job. Whether it’s a job or a network marketing opportunity, nothing in life is secure.

The only security there is, is in your Actions.

You can be certain that if you continue to take proactive actions towards your network marketing business, something is bound to flourish, the catch is, it won’t happen in your time, or by “friday”.

Too many people enter this industry with an “employee” mentality. And who can blame them. They are only looking for what they already know and feel comfortable with.

Think about it, haven’t you ever had a friend, who, no matter how many times he or she had a bad experience with a certain type of mate, they end up dating the same kind of person over and over again??

It’s because we are creatures of habit, and we are looking for predictability  and security, it’s in our nature.

So if you are considering a network marketing opportunity, see it for what it is. It is an “opportunity” (a good position, chance, or prospect, as for advancement or success) Nothing in the definition of opportunity says, guaranteed.

It is completely up to you.

To better your odds, align yourself with the people who are already in the industry, building their businesses, and can help you shave off time to your learning curve. That way you will get to where you want to go much much faster.

And one more thing, the beauty of network marketing, is that, unlike a job, you will get paid exponentially for your efforts. Potentially there, is no ceiling on your income. This is one of the only industries where average people can replace their yearly incomes in only a months time. So don’t be afraid to get in the game, just change your perspective on it!
