How To Become A Better, More Consistent Leader

Who are you choosing to be in your network marketing or home business right now? If you find it difficult to stay positive and focused, here is a neat little trick you can use to help you be the person you are wanting to attract into your business.

My wife Michelle has coined a new term in our household: “Life is a Team Call!”

Allow me to explain. As part of our home business, we have regular team calls, one on Monday and one on Wednesday, and I typically host or co-host one or both of those calls. The key element of being out on the calls each week is that I am looked upon as the leader. So I’m very conscious of what I say and how I say it because I realize I’m setting an example for the other people listening to the call.

If you are like most people, you no doubt find such occasions — like hosting a call — where there is no doubt about who you are going to show up as. You are expected to lead, others are depending on it, and so you just do it. You show up as the leader.

The challenge tends not to be those times, but rather it’s the rest of the time when there is no one else relying upon you or watching you. Do you show up as the leader for yourself in your business consistently, or just when someone is watching?

One of my mentors has a saying, you are either a leader or a victim. At any point in time you are one or the other. If you happen to be guilty of turning it on and turning it off, and the times that you are turning it on are relatively infrequent, then you are actually being a victim most of the time. And when you are being a victim, it tends to undo the times you are leading. It’s an inconsistent vibration and its impact lingers and undermines your results.

Getting back to my story, after a particularly inspiring rant of mine, Michelle said to me “Why can’t you be like that all the time? You were amazing. Who was that man and how do we get him to show up more often?” So she took a sheet of paper and in very large block lettering she wrote “Life Is A Team Call” and posted it onto the fridge door.

And therein is the reminder. Leadership is a choice.

At any point of time, someone is always watching and you are always setting an example. Even if the example is just for you. If you choose to turn it on and off then your results will reflect that lack of consistency. If you want better results in your business — and in your life — remember this simple message: Life is a team call. Behave accordingly.
