6 Lessons From Immigrant Entrepenaurs

Dear Blog Reader,

I came accross this article from msn.The article resonates with me for many reasons.Firstly,and foremost because I am living and working in a foreign country.In the last 6 months,it has become apparent to me that I needed to draw inspiration to make my dreams happen.I think under proper circumstances being in a foreign land can be a greater boost than hindrance for achieving one´s dreams.

For example in my network marketing ventures,I get to explore many avenues and social interactions without prohitions of social norms.This is because I am foreign to whatever expectations,and the need to socialise or intergrate is expected from me than the contrary.Secondly,by merely being foreign then there is a certain fascination with me.Now this can be a good or a bad thing.At this stage,the effective thing in my business is sound knowledge of products,confidence and good deliverance of marketing info(Grasp and command of the language count).

Well,basically,every opportunity is due to what was perceived an obstacle.I used to think not knowing Spanish was an obstacle,but then what would I say knowing English in this same environment is?Definitely not a disadvantage!!!There are English speaking people waiting to be introduced to the business.This also opens up the student market which is more open and available to try new ventures etecera.

Anyway,next time you list reasons why you should not or cannot do something,remember its the same reason why you should and can do it.

About the picture that comes with this article,well,its a known fact that this country was founded and still prides itself on the skills and labour of immgrants.Also,it is one country where many people go to forget scarce opportunities in their home countries and seek prosperity for the future.Many people have attributed fair opportunities and industriousness of these immigrants to their success.

Things Women Do To Each Other

It's become the silent emotional killer among women. Women who are downright mean, malicious and disrespectful with each other. This trend is creating havoc in our relationships with each other, for it strikes the core of sisterhood. Real sisterhood can only exist when respect and trust stand unshakeable. In this particular, most men are quite opposite to us. For a man, a brother is a brother is a brother. However, what is most disturbing about our malicious ways is that we are passing on a legacy of a broken sisterhood to our daughters. Girls that are mean and catty are usually this way because their understanding is that this is a normal part of femaleness. They grow up to become mean and catty women who perpetuate a diseased sisterhood. To break this cycle we each need to make a conscious effort to validate all women. Be they our friends or not. Otherwise, we will continue to find ourselves moving within circles of female hostility, suspicion, and pain. Here is my list of the most detestable practices that we need to discontinue in order to heal our sisterhood:

1. Talking about each other - You are really not her friend if what you have to say about her is so bad you can't say it in front of her. If you are a real friend you should be able to tell her your concerns for her life to her face. If you have the need to tell others, but you haven't found the time to tell her - red lights should be flashing. Believe it or not, gossiping is not an intrinsic part of being female. Women who gossip do it not because it's a woman-thing, but because they want to elevate themselves and put other women in a place of inferiority. Gossiping is just another symptom of deeper insecurities.

2. Fighting for men - One of the most undignified things that any woman can do is to fight, argue, or curse another woman over a man. It's a disgusting trend that used to be a school girl thing, but today adult women are doing it too. If both of you are in conflict - because his choice is not clear - then that means that he's really not into any of you. He's probably playing both of you. That man really does not deserve love or attention from either one of you. Let him go.

3. Joining female gangs - Women who make you feel unwelcome and unwanted within their circle of friends are not to be trusted. Women cliques have become common in the workplace, at church, in the neighborhood. Cliques are the dwelling place of insecure women. Women who join cliques are seeking refuge from their own lack of confidence by cocooning themselves within this circle of supposed exclusivity. Again, the need to belong to, or be part of a clique is also a sign of deeper insecurities. Beware, cliques are usually encouraged and thrive on a type of gang mentality.

4. Undermining each other - Beware of any woman who can never celebrate your accomplishments with you. It could be a new boyfriend, a promotion, an award, a new job, a new acquisition, weight loss. If she has nothing positive to say to you about it, does not show emotional support, or chooses to remain silent she is not a true friend. Real friends know how to recognize and genuinely rejoice for our successes with pride.

5. Competing against each other - You need to get this straight. There will always be another woman with nicer hair, a more caring husband or boyfriend, better behaved children, a better paying job, a bigger house, a more fashionable wardrobe - there will always be some woman with more of what you don't have. Consequently, the only person that you need to compete against is yourself. Strive to be the best that you can be - for you. Competing against other women to prove yourself superior is a financial and emotional drainer. Because of this mindless competition we become mean, envious and hypocritical. It is pointless.

6. Disrespecting boundaries - To survive peacefully every relationship and every friendship must have clear boundaries. Good relationships operate within margins of respect. Within this level of respect, privacy and intimacy are keywords. Yes, you are my friend, but that doesn't give me the right to walk into your bedroom or your kitchen, unbeknownst to you, and help myself to your stuff. I don't do this not because you won't allow me to, but because I respect your privacy and your things. Consequently, we both need to know and respect each other's levels of privacy and intimacy.

7. Crossing boundaries - This is similar to the above, the only difference is that my respect of your boundaries should never depend on my friendship with you. We need to respect women for the simple fact that they are women. If she is a woman she is a sister. Period.

Therefore, from that understanding I will have the utmost respect for her children, her man, her opinions, her choices, and for her as a person. It amazes me how women are quick to disrespect another sister's boundaries, but feel offended if another woman does to them the same exact thing. Honestly, that type of inconsistent behavior can only be credited to some form of mental illness.

8. Exploiting our friendships - This is a major one. Why are you friends? Do you only remember her being around whenever she could get something from you? It doesn't even have to be material. It could just be your time or your positive energy. Does she happen to be always on the receiving side, with you dishing out ton loads of yourself or your stuff? Or is she your friend because of what you represent? It could be that your husband's position or yours, your possessions, your talent, whatever, represents some form of achievement. Is she a friend because that link to you places her on a higher platform? In a real friendship appreciation, support, and loyalty must be reciprocal .

Happy Birthday Google

Cheers to the company that gave us the verb ¨Google¨and revolutionalised information availability and access with respect to time and sources.If I had bought Google shares in 2004 for 85USD/per share I would be 525USD/per share richer today!!!

Read the inspirational story of the 2 young men in what has become the classical internet or computer story of the transformation of two young struggling nerds with an idea they BELIEVE the world is waiting to adopt...to ultra-rich and mature men dictating how we access information to the extend of what we believe or not.I mean mature in terms of business acumen,I dont imply they werent mature when they first started in their garage.Im just saying their business savviness has grown exponentially.To learn the brief story of Larry Page and Sergey Brin,click here.

Day 2:one thing that scares me

Yesterday,was not a good day in terms of my daily ambition.Well,maybe with regards to my business,filling my bottlwe sample with one multiuse product could count,not as 1 scary thing to do,but as something to do towards my business.

I made a purpoted effort to do a task as soon as it enters my head.You know?Like my brain or though process says,pack and shelve the newspapers,and I did.One thing that I think I could do less of is advise rxcessively.When anyone tells me a difficulty,I always get into my advise mode.maybe its a character trait which assists me to cope with what sounds like a complaint,dissatisfaction or negativity.If someone says I dont feel well¨I will ask why¨...then start thinking about possible soultions.Well,this has got to be good,right?Reason being,that this ´solution-prone¨ attitude does not let me stay with a problem as a problem for long.When I hear or observe a problem,even in my own life I think of multiple ways to remove it,because a problem(with symptoms of a feeling of loss of control,self-management and organization) makes me feel my capacity is compromised.Its not always such a straightforward logical conclusion.Sometimes,problems,failures,inertia takes over.This situation always promeagates and sustains itself.However,when we inspire ourselves by the messages,the information we take in we should soon realise that its not all lost.And its still possible.

Yesterday:Day 1 of Series 1 thing that scares me

Well,yesterday,I went to a Metro entrance in the area where the office and centre of the MLM Business Im involved with is.I started putting up posters and notices around the area,then I stood at the top of the stairs and waited.You know,sometimes fear can reason very ¨logically¨to rob you of potential growth.So alittle voice said,well,there are not so many people.But I resisted,and then people started to stream out.I started by just stretching out a hand.Like the analogy made by one successful Mexican couple who are diamonds,I had to remember the statistics that musicians who entertain for royalties on the Metros knew.In fact,Metro musicians swear by this statistical evidence.The probability of all possibilities.Therefore,I wont and I dont think even these musicians will be able to tell the exact distribution of the number of people who will like the music and donate money,and those who wont.It might be a whole coach that does not donate,or 5 out of a total of 10 passengers might donate.But someone will.So back to my story,there were people who took itjust t be nice(It also made me feel nice...Perhaps I should apply the Law of Attraction such that I not only find it acceptable that people read take and read the flyers just to be nice.I want them to be moved,walked few steps back to where I am,and ask more question)Anyway some said no,some waved no,some gave me a stern ¨Dont even think about it¨look,some took a flyer just to throw it in the next nearby bin(I have done this while in Johannesburg.How bitter the medicine tastes when the doctor himself has to drink it:().Anyway,like the analogy made by the couple,when you approach people(or a situation) with an opportunity,there will be multiple reactions.The good thing to remeber is that people dont reject you,they reject the opportunity.Having said that,I am not putting presentation very lightly.Yesterday,at a training of hair products under the brand Satinique,we were reminded of the fact that we needed to act the part.Aint no one gonna buy a antidandruff shampoo from someone whose hair is dusting off some dandruff.Anyway,i would say my frist day,of doing One thing that scares me went okay.I even got an appointment from an interested gentleman for next Tuesday.I admit now,that some days I will give out flyers,and no one would call,I pray to survive this situations with more lustre,more ambition and more determination and hope.This will be the point,where it really counts.Another positive moment was that i meant an insiprational young woman,who lives in Barcelona,and who is really making it in the MLM business and our company there.She had a few pointers to share(one of the things I like about this business is the ideal we live that your success is my success irrespective of whether the person is upline or downline).For now,Aluta Continua.Keep Praying for me,I fall sometimes.
One step at a time.

1 thing that scares me today series

I want to continue to write more personally(Recommendation from a renounced Professor:)He knows who he is.Well,the thing is, personal posts include commentary about my hopes and dreams.My hopes and dreams consist of relationship success,financial success and spiritual success.So I will always write on a topic from one of these three themes.Anyway,I thought I would also start a ¨1 thing that scares me today¨ series,made of daily tasks,activities that I do which require that I get out of my comfort zone.Therefore,I will do one thing that scares me everyday,and write about it on whatever theme is most appealing that day.I want to sleep every night feeling that our fears are truly unfounded.

4 days into September

I havent blogged in 4 days.I feel terrible,its like I have been neglecting my baby!Well,in 4 days not much has happened,or maybe it has.
What did not happen:
1)No one is calling me anymore regarding the many posters I placed all over populous parts of Madrid.
2)The people that said they would come to the open meeting did not come
3)I have not cleaned my room yet:(
4)I havent ironed my clothes yet:(
5)I have not put the prices in the catalogs yet:(

What I did....
Notice something,for things accomplished,Im going to claim involvement.However when it came to shortfallings,I blame the sun!This blaming,shaming and naming game is not fun.I have to quit alibis.
Anyway,lets rephrase and say,what DID happen:
1)I cooked my dinner(This is a FEAT for me)I usually eat out,or eat a sandwich or worse...
2)While on my way back from an open meeting(wherein none of my promised prospects showed up),my upline and I missed our stop while in the metro.Then,I told her we were missed it because of some reason,then we got off from to rejoin the original route.And then I met a prospect who made an appointment.I know for now (Cos she has postponed again,)that sometimes the breakthrough we want wont be a breakthrough.It cdould just be a ray of hope to KEEP ON.
3)Im still alive,happy,able (Thank GOD Almighty)
4)I started in the Finance Department of the same company.They seem organised.I will learn a lot her,at the least,organization,planning,assimilation of ginormous amounts of data(Im a hoarder so I will ahve to learn and perfect perusal).

Well,for today I end here.

Dont forget to comment.Negatively or positively,Im here to LEARN.
