Welcome to Markethive

Don't lead with your but

Posted by Bill Bateman on December 15, 2019 - 8:39pm

I was listening to a podcast with Frank Kern and his wife earlier today on Stitcher It was all about the “Great What if?” questions that we ask ourselves that (often) trip us up in our endeavors (whether business or personal)

We WAY too often “lead with our buts”. We sabotage our efforts by focusing, maybe even obsessing, on what could possibly go wrong.

There are really only 3 things that we need to do anything. We need to know…

  • What to do
  • Why we are doing whatever it is and...
  • How to do whatever it is

All the rest is just focusing on one step at a time. 

Doesn’t matter whether you want to be a successful network marketer, an insurance agent, a brain surgeon or teacher….

It’s a process. 

BUT…

What if…

  • We can’t figure it out?
  • We don’t have anybody show up to our online meeting?
  • We don’t have THE best product?
  • Marketing on Social Media stops working?
  • Facebook advertising gets more expensive?
  • "It" takes more time than we think?

And on and on and on…

Don’t lead with your but. Don’t talk out of your but. Don’t let the “yeah but’s” and the “what if’s” distract you from accomplishing what you want to accomplish.

Which brings me to MarketHive.

Every week there are people who don’t get value from MarketHive just because they get caught up in all the “well but” questions.

Don’t be one of them. 

The downside risks with MarketHive (and platforms like it) are way low. 

You have to invest a little time. Invest it wisely. Build relationships, pick up the phone, call and talk to some of the people you are associating with.

Ask them what they are trying to accomplish on MarketHive and tell them what you are trying to do.

Find out how you can help them and vice versa.

If you need some help - let me know.

Bill Bateman - like "Batman" with an "E" in the middle I tell folks on the phone

PS - if you're a free member here on MarketHive please check in regularly because we purge inactive accounts every 6 months. Also, if you DON'T know the value of the ILP (which is a $100 a month investment) just ask. It's kind of amazing.
