She just doesn't get it!

I was recently talking to another Tupperware consultant about our businesses.  We were talking about the ups and downs of our businesses.  Her sister, sitting close by, finally said to us, "Why don't you just quit if it's that tough?"  My friend looked at me and said, "She just doesn't get it, does she?" 

For me, Tupperware is not just about the making money part--it's about more than that. I look to improve the lives of the people on my Irresistabowl team; I look to improve the Tupperware in the homes of my customers; I look to give my hostesses a boatload of free Tupperware.  I like what I do--80% of the time.  I get that this business is NOT about plastic bowls, but my friend's sister didn't.  I don't believe unless you invest in those around in this business that you could ever "get it."

I get it--do you?

Get off the Roller Coaster!

Life truly is a Roller Coaster Ride!  There are more ups and downs in my business than any roller coaster I've ever ridden!  I love roller coasters--at amusement parks!  I hate them in my business.  Here are some things I have learned:

1. If my business succeeds or fails--its all up to me!
2. If I want my business to go a the right direction, I have to turn around and make the changes to make it a success.
3. I need to set goals and keep them in front of me.  If I don't write them down, I'm not really serious about them.
4. Physical activity stimulates the brain and brings happy thoughts and feelings, so I need to get off my behind and MOVE!  Sitting around check out the web, watching TV, etc., isn't going to accomplish anything.
5. I can't wait for the perfect day or time to make improvements.  This is my moment NOW!  Guess what?  I'm already at my next moment--that one that I was just speaking of is GONE!
6. GO!  It's time to move

So, you know the old saying, "Crap or get off the pot?"  I think that's what I need to do with my Tupperware business!  One of my favorite movies is "Shawshank Redemption".  My favorite line is, "Get busy living or get busy dying."  It's time to bring life to my business!  I'm going to get busy living!  My phone line will be busy--you'll have to leave me a message.  I'll call you back later.
