If You Don’t Call Them Back, They Can’t Say YES! By Dr. Randi Ross

My grandmother was one of the finest people that anyone could ever have the pleasure of knowing. I was the luckiest person to have her as my grandma. She was born in the early 1900s to eastern European immigrant parents and was 1 of 5 children. When she was a toddler she was stricken with polio and was left disabled for her lifetime. But that didn’t stop her. She graduated with honors, was an avid reader and was incredibly intelligent. When she married my grandfather, they told her she would never have children. She went on to have my mom and her younger sister as well. She was that incredible person that everyone wanted to be around and always looked to for advice. 

When I was about 20 yrs old, I told her that I was thinking about becoming a chiropractor, but I never was a good student and said that I didn’t know if I could do it. She looked at me and placed her hand on top of mine and said, “You are an extraordinary person, and if you really want to be a chiropractor, if you really WANT it, nothing and no one can stop you.” The next day I put in my application for chiropractic college!

My grandmother had this incredible diamond cocktail ring. And when she passed away a few months before my graduation, her ring went to my aunt who took care of her in her last years. My aunt past away 3 years ago, very unexpectedly. As the only girl in the family, I felt that the ring should be passed to me, and ultimately I would pass it on to my daughter. I was uncomfortable asking my cousin because I thought he would say NO, I would offend him, he would think I was a jerk, etc.

For 3 years I didn’t ask because he might say no. Then I experienced a training with our one and only Tremendous Bill. All weekend I kept hearing Bill say, “If you don’t call them back, they can’t say YES.” We are all so worried about them saying NO, that we pass up on all the opportunities to hear YES. 

This weekend I was at a family party. I decided to ask for the ring. So, I waited until my cousin was alone, and the whole way walking over, there was a tiny Bill Pike on my shoulder saying in my ear, “IF YOU DON’T ASK THEM, THEY CANT SAY YES.” So I asked, and now have my grandmother’s ring that has more value to me than becoming a Presidential Sales Leader, and I will share it with my daughter.

The point in this very long story, is this: Think of all of those missed enrollees, think of all of those missed opportunities that might spin into something great, think of all of those networks you might not build because you didn’t call them back, and they couldn’t say YES. If you go ahead and ask, I guarantee there will be many more Yes’s than No’s, and who knows, it might just change your life.

Craig’s Message – Change Your Thoughts & Change Your LIFE!

Your mind is similar to a computer, and what you program into it dictates how it will function. 

If you program your computer with the wrong software or don’t learn how to use it properly, it will never function as the manufacturer intended. There are also thousands of computer viruses lurking in cyberspace, just waiting for an opportunity to destroy your hard drive and delete the information stored in your computer. These viruses can get into a perfectly good computer and contaminate the software. Before you know it, the computer will become sluggish and will malfunction. You may not be able to get your programs to work or get your important documents out of the computer.

You may also unknowingly pass a computer virus along to a family member or business associate, contaminating their systems with the same virus that infected yours. Usually these problems occur not because the computer is defective, but because somebody has reprogrammed the software or contaminated good, valuable programs with viruses.

Similarly, we often allow negative thoughts, words and other devious viruses to invade our minds, subtly changing our software or corrupting our beliefs. We were programmed to live full, happy, healthy and whole lives. But when our thinking becomes contaminated, we make serious mistakes and doubt ourselves. We can go through life with low self-esteem, worries, fears, feelings of inadequacy and insecurity. Making matters worse, we pass on these negative attitudes to others.

When you find these things happening, reprogram your computer. Change your thinking. Know that YOU are not defective. You were programmed for success! But until you get your thinking in line, you will never operate at your full potential.

The key is choosing the right thoughts and keeping your mind set. Not just when you feel good, not just when things are going your way, not just when you don’t have any problems, but even in the tough times of life – and especially in those times – you must keep your mind set on good things. 

Some people take one step forward and two steps backward. They are happy and in a good mood one day and negative and depressed the next day. They make a little progress and then go into reverse. Because they do not believe in themselves, they never really move forward and achieve the success they desire. 

Stay focused and have faith in yourself. Stay full of joy and full of hope. Make a conscious decision that you will stay in a positive frame of mind. Throw out negative thoughts of fear, worry, and doubt. Tell yourself, “I refuse to go backward. I deserve to be successful, and I will be successful!”

Don’t Quit Short of Achieving Your Dream, by Bill Pike

THINK AND GROW RICH has a story about a man named Darby showing what happens when someone quits just short of their dream. Darby invested all he had along with his friends and opened a gold mine and WHEN adversity came he quit. He sold his equipment for 10 cents on a dollar and quit. The junkyard owner who bought the equipment went to an expert on gold mines and was told if he went 3 more feet he would hit the gold. HE GOT INTO ACTION and hit the biggest gold mine ever.

I have recently seen people try to steal gold from others instead of putting in the work needed. I call them claim jumpers for “easy money.” And I have seen people quit. This message is to tell you, THEY ARE QUITTING 3 FEET SHORT OF HITTING THE GOLD. 

When we decided to start Vía, we made a decision to spend the first couple of years building the reputation of our product. THIS WE HAVE DONE. We wanted to make sure the timbers holding up the company were solid, including finances, product, management, and pay plan.

We are now getting new equipment in the form of Marketing Tools that will let us dig faster and deeper. BUT IT WILL ONLY BENEFIT THOSE WHO DON’T QUIT 3 FEET SHORT.

Darby told this story for years. There are going to be people who will do the same. “Oh, I was one of the first in Vía and COULD HAVE been financially free, but…”

How about you? Are you WILLING TO DO WHATEVER IT TAKES EVERY DAY? ARE YOU?

Then start now, so that when the new equipment arrives you have the most important things you could have in this business—Motivation and MO’ MONEY!

A Complaint-Free World

After hearing Platinum Sales Leader Teri Tomlinson talk about her Complaint- Free World bracelet, Craig ordered 100 of them to share with others.

The Complaint-Free World bracelets are sweeping the globe! The Complaint-Free movement was started by Reverend Will Bowen of Christ Church Unity in Kansas City, Missouri. He was teaching a series on Prosperity, and part of this series was helping the congregation form the habit of gratitude by going twenty-one days without complaining. 

In an effort to make the lesson practical, the church purchased purple bracelets and gave them away, encouraging people to move the bracelet to the other arm if they caught themselves complaining. The idea blossomed to include giving the bracelets to others outside the church community. To date, more than 6 million bracelets have been ordered and distributed worldwide. 

The program is staffed completely by volunteers and supported one hundred percent by the generosity of people who request the bracelets. Though they are free, you can make a donation for the bracelets if you would like. When you order your bracelets on-line, you will be sent an envelope for a donation if you choose to make one.

Join the movement for a Complaint Free World! Click on the link below to order your bracelets today.
