I first heard about network marketing when I was 17 years old. The entire concept of replacing brick and mortar stores with people was fascinating. In hind sight I realize that it takes a lot more than a fascinating business model or a fantastic company. What was lacking for me all those years ago was a process that I could duplicate and teach to the people in my network.

Having my own business continued to be a dream of mine because regardless of how well a job paid, the cost of living kept rising even faster. It was impossible for me to fully accept the status quo of struggling to survive. There were things I wanted to do and places I wanted to see. As a parent I felt a responsibility to show my children the world.

I was raised in the country and love to be outdoors. Spending time with my family has always been a goal, but for many years the time left in my schedule limited what we could do and when we could do it.

Hey David! You Just Lost Your Job! What Are You Going To Do?

After losing my job of 20 years at the dawn of the current depression I had a choice to make. Either paint myself as a victim of the current economic slump or use this time and experience to redirect my life. We went to Disney World.

Treating the loss of my job as a celebration may have seemed strange to many, but during our trip I was able to see my father for the last time before he passed earlier this year. Every day I’m forced to be thankful and celebrate because God has directly answered my prayers for more time with my family.

My focus isn’t primarily finding another job because I know jobs aren’t dependable. My focus isn’t even on making money although money seems to follow successful people. My primary focus is upon making a difference.

I’ve been blessed to lead the music ministry in our local church for almost five years now so making a difference is certainly an experience that has already touched my life.

Making a difference in peoples’  lives financially by empowering them to run a successful network marketing business will always be a common goal in this industry. However, network marketing, this concept that has fascinated me all of my adult life, promises so much more than money.

Allowing people who were accustomed to spending 50 to 60 hours a week or more away from their families, an alternative that pays beyond retirement is incredible. Knowing that my network marketing business, however large it becomes in my lifetime, can grow even larger in the coming generations is astounding.

Being on hand while my youngest daughter transitioned from age 2 to 4 helped me to realize how many opportunities a father who spends all of his time away from home can miss. I’m thankful for the relationships I have with all of my girls, but they’ll tell you it’s different for their youngest sister. Not only because she’s the youngest, but because she’s spent valuable time with her father during those fleeting formative years.

With the capability of doing business directly with people around the country and around the world my biggest concern is how to give myself to them like they were my own family.

One last thing that I’m thankful for is the community of networking professionals who’ve already reached out to help me. It is my earnest desire to position myself as an instrument of encouragement for this community and to make many more friends while I’m alive.
