If you were to go to your favorite search engine right now and type in "network marketing coach" or "lifestyle coach," you will receive a mixed bag of experts and novices who all want to get your ball into their court. But if you only have a limited budget or if you're new to the industry, how do you choose the right fit?
Having studied coaching for years, lived through experiences that have honed their skills, and continued studying to this day, Lisa and David are both blown away by the volume of people calling themselves coaches and experts. To find the right mentors, they suggest the following tips:
1. Choose a variety of mentors
Your mentor should be relatable, but also have a lifestyle you admire. Additionally, they need to have the experience to back up any claims they make. They also suggest changing or updating your mentors as you progress through your business and in life, to help you maintain momentum.
2. Write down your limiting beliefs
Figure out why your insecurities are there and give yourself the space to figure out what brought them on. Try not to let other people's opinions affect you because they can make you second guess yourself.
3. Reevaluate the people you spend time with
Examine your pool of friends to see how they align with and support your goals. If needed, find new people to spend time with that leave you feeling full and supported.
How to utilize life experiences to find your path
We live in a society driven by money. But earning enough money to have the freedom to live how you want can be challenging. Lisa's career started as a super-successful pharmaceutical rep. with a generous income, a company car, and an expense account. After leaving that role to spend more time with her family, she moved into her first network marketing role for a beauty company where she quickly rose through the ranks to become a top earner. But when she realized that many players on her team weren't treated fairly, she decided to step away from that organization to find her next path.
After leaving that company, Lisa faced divorce, losing her close friend and mentor, and having to face the job market as a single mother. Taking some time to figure out what she was looking for, she developed a list of criteria that her next network marketing opportunity needed to meet. She based the information on the lessons she’d learned from her life experiences up to that point:
What was on her list?
- The company needed to be more than ten years old
- It needed to be international, reaching more than North America
- She no longer wanted to have to focus on a singular gender or age range
- Are the products offered able to be used daily?
- The compensation plan should be binary, and all team members should have equal opportunities for success
During this conversation, Lisa shares an exercise that she often recommends to those who are trying to assess their personal growth. Write three letters to yourself to discover your reality:
- The bad: Write a letter that allows you to notate all your insecurities, frustrations, and anger
- The honest: The second letter should be a clear, neutral look at where you are currently
- The abundant: Finally, write a letter full of your dreams and goals for the future
By having these three letters, you will be able to find the middle ground that can help you discover your next step towards success.
