Prosperity Principles for Network Marketers
Whatever you can give, give! The act of giving will loosen the hold you have on money and begin to get it into flow, and you’ll begin to feel like a useful member of your community.
- Giving. Some people say, I’ll give when I’ve got enough. It doesn’t work that way. Give now. If you can’t give a hundred dollars, give ten. If you can’t help an entire community, help a family.

- Rewarding. Choose a set of goals you’d like to achieve, and plan some simple, inexpensive rewards for achieving them. Maybe you take yourself and a loved one out to dinner and a movie. Maybe you go on a mini-vacation. Whatever it is, give yourself the gift when you achieve the goal so you learn to expect benefit from your accomplishments.
- Delegating. Take a look at the things you hate to do. Take a look at your biggest time-wasters. Now, compare the time you’re giving those things to the money you could earn in the time you’re taking to do them. If you’ve got activities that are below your pay grade, get someone else to do them, pay them appropriately, and spend the time earning what you’re worth.
- Learning. There are people who could give you information that, if you were to use it, would make you enormously successful. If you avoid paying those people for that knowledge, you’re being penny-wise and pound-foolish.
Spend the money to learn how to be more efficient, more productive and more effective. That’s an investment, not an expense!
- Tithing. It’s a well established and effective practice to give money, usually ten percent of your earnings, to the place where you feel spiritually led. That may be your church or an organization that does work which moves you deeply. It may even be to an individual who has inspired you in some profound way.
