The post The Most Devastating Network Marketing Leadership Mistake appeared first on Todd Falcone.
The most important quality of becoming a leader in network marketing is the ability to grow leaders. How? Simple. Give it all away…
There’s a rule in leadership that says, “People will only follow others they perceive are at a higher level of leadership than themselves.”
Early on in my network marketing career, I couldn’t recruit anyone… let alone leaders.
I felt like a 2 (on a scale of 1-10) on the leadership scale and so I was showing up like a 2.
This means I could only recruit 1’s and 2’s if I was lucky.
When I finally started brainwashing myself and telling myself every day that “I was the leader that every other leader was looking for”…
I started showing up as a leader, therefore, was able to recruit a much higher caliber of a leader.
Now that I was able to recruit leaders…
I was faced with a different problem.
After much experience I realized…
People will turn out the way you expect them to turn out.
This means that people’s degree of leadership will be based on your thinking about their leadership…
Your expectation of their leadership.
Is this absolute?
Of course not!
But if you don’t expect big things from your leaders, they’re way less likely to rise to higher levels.
So great, we’ve got step one: Expect big things from your leaders.
What’s step two?
Tell them how great they are.
Recognize their accomplishments and celebrate even the smallest wins.
Many leaders who have an incredible work ethic, great trainers, and mastered all the skills…
Sabotage themselves because they want all the glory.
They want the fame.
This brings me to Step three:
Great leaders give away all the glory.
As soon as a leader on your team thinks that you want all the glory, they’re gonna be less likely to work really hard to make you more money.
However…
If you’re constantly recognizing, constantly edifying, and celebrating their wins… your leaders will do anything for you!
They’ll think, “Wow! He/she sees something in me that I don’t see in myself!”
If you want to get really good at something…
Get good at seeing leadership in other people that they don’t see in themselves.
That’s what my mentor did with me.
I started producing and he started recognizing me and giving me the glory, not just one-on-one, but publicly.
Even when I wasn’t around.
Why?
If you recognize someone even when they’re not around…
It will get back to them and it will be much more meaningful.
It’s more impactful because they’ll understand that you’re not just giving them compliments to bump up their ego.
When a leader on your team edifies you…
Say, “the only reason why I’ve been able to achieve what I’ve achieved is I’ve got amazing leaders on the team.”
Give them the confidence that they can surpass you & they are more capable than you were.
In The Magic of Thinking Big by David Schwartz; It talks about honor.
You should honor the leader, respect the leader, learn from the leader, but never think you can’t pass the leader because second-best thinkers are invariably second-best doers.
If you hog on the glory… you’re preventing them from having the confidence and belief that they can surpass you.
When someone puts me on a pedestal I’m always saying, “I want you to pass me. You have the ability to pass me. When I was x years into network marketing like you, I had nowhere near the ability that you have.”
Don’t just give people glory, but give them hope.
Let them know that they have within’ them to far surpass you.
The more glory you give…
And the more hop you give…
The more glory comes back to you.

How do we overcome challenges in network marketing? Every entrepreneur and network marketer has challenges (especially at the beginning)… so what do we do about them?
I’ve got some bad news for you…
You are going to face challenges.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, network marketer, business owner, or working for somebody else…
There will be challenges.
We all face the same thing…
Most of the people who have quit network marketing or failed in business have all been through this valley but never overcame it.
The valley of death is the ebbs and flows of success…
You have some success then BAM! You start to have a little failure.
I’ve got news for you…
NOBODY’S business experiences only success.
Most of us don’t think like business owners and we think somehow, in our delusional state, that our business is supposed to go straight up all the time.
That’s not going to happen my friends…
There will always be peaks and valleys in business and your life.
Often times when you are just getting started in something, you have no money!
In the first year and a half of most business endeavors, you see very little financial progress…
So how do you get through this valley of death?
You need emotional capital.
You’ve got to have enough emotional capital in order to weather the storm…
To get through the valley.
How do you get through this valley of death?
You KEEP GOING!
Most people don’t like to hear this, but…
If you want to succeed in network marketing or any other business endeavor…
You MUST do your due diligence.
Learn all you can.
Figure stuff out.
How are you going to get more customers in your business and keep them?
What are your profit margins?
How is your marketing?
You’ve got to figure all those things out.
There’s a concept called Kai Zen in Japanese which means the art of continuous and never-ending improvement.
Tony Robbins calls it C-A-N-I (Constant And Never-ending Improvement)
Constantly try and improve your skills…
Learning new closing techniques…
Trying new invitation techniques…
Learning how to create more authority over social media.
All of these things come into play when moving towards success in network marketing.
We must discipline our disappointments and think like business owners because every business owner goes through the valley of death.
Every million-dollar earner in our profession (that’s been around long enough) has gone through this valley.
No more thinking, “Oh poor pitiful me. Why does this have to happen to me? I suck! I’m not a good salesperson. I’m not a good closer.”
Almost every network marketing leader went through the same thing.
You’re not special!
Increase your emotional capital…
Fortify your emotional strength…
Discipline your disappointments…
Be patient with your results and be very impatient with your activity.
Go make it happen.

What are you willing to sacrifice for success?
“Great achievement is born from great sacrifice” –Napoleon Hill
I went to a network marketing event at the age of 18 that would forever shift my perspective…
One of the leaders got on stage and had spent a month overseas in Europe. He talked about world schooling his children.
The concept of world schooling was new to me…
Wasn’t that what I just got finished learning throughout high school?
Unlike what I learned in high school…
He was teaching his kids history, not just out of history books, but in places in the world where the history actually happened.
The thought of having the ability to take my kids around the world and showing them different cultures, introducing them to the pyramids of Egypt, and seeing the Seven Wonders of the world gave me goosebumps.
That became my why…
To world school my kids that I did not yet have.
Chances are, like most, you want to become a millionaire…
Many want a nice car, a beautiful house, or some materialistic item (which is great).
What I’ve found is that most of us won’t sacrifice much for a desire for pleasure.
We’ll do much more to avoid pain, either for yourself or especially for those we love.
One of the most powerful motivators for me personally was asking myself, “What would my children have to sacrifice if I don’t succeed?”
Now that was painful.
If you don’t succeed in chasing after your dreams/goals…
What do I mean by this?
Your children sacrifice inspiration to do big things because they don’t have that inspiration around them!
My father went to prison for murder when I was around 5 years old. He was an alcoholic and committed suicide. He was not much of an inspiration.
My mother was a single mom. She worked two jobs to put herself through college and work towards a law degree.
She ultimately became an attorney and retired as a judge.
We were VERY poor…
Living in a garage apartment. It was one big room basically…
Very humble place.
The biggest gift my mother gave me was the inspiration for doing big things.
My mother sacrificed a lot to pursue her dreams…
She sacrificed a lot so she could give me the inspiration to pursue my dreams.
I had a role model who went after her dreams…
Who let nothing stop her.
She overcame crazy amounts of obstacles and has pushed me to become the man I am today.
Today, Ask yourself this question:
Sleep?
Your socialist theme from ignorant people?
Your reputation?
It’s no wonder most children end up living average lives…
They’re just following in the footsteps of their parents.
Sacrifice the frustration long enough to figure it out so that one day your children won’t have to sacrifice seeing their father/mother not do big things.
Go make it happen.
