To be totally honest, I found the majority of the ones who dropped out in my team were the ones where myself and their immediate upline sponsors were dropping new sign ups under them. Some of them actually had two or more dropped down to help them build their business. However, it was like they didn't want to do any work themselves. After a little while some of them just quit. I didn't have one single person passed under me. Yet, I am still active and will remain so. Much can be said about motivation and determination in order to be successful. Don't get me wrong, I still believe in helping everyone I can but I don't think it is productive to keep passing new members under the ones who are proving they are not willing to try to build their business also. Once this has been determined to be the case I will then focus on passing to the ones who are actively building their own downline. I feel they deserve my generousity. All my best, Norma

It is a pleasure meeting you two. I do hope we aren't the only members on here from Virginia. However, I have plans to see hundreds of Virginians sign up as time goes on. Don't you? Wishing you the best, Norma

Welcome, Doyle! I share your idea that this is a good way to retire. Also, it allows me the opportunity of meeting so many wonderful people that I wouldn't have had the chance otherwise. Wishing you much success and an early retirement!! All my best, Norma

I want to share a story with you new members that I hope will help you to understand how patience and hard work is needed before you can begin to expect positive results in your business. I grew up on a large farm that my grandfather owned. We all shared in the responsibilities of tending the fields. My days in the corn field taught me a valuable lesson in patience, attitude, and endurance. In the spring, grandfather would prepare the land utilizing the tools on hand; an old mare and a plow. Then, we roped off the rows as evenly as possible to allow for growth between each one. Next, we sowed the corn, dropping the kernels by hand. After planting each row, we would then have to cover the corn with a hoe. After the first rain, weeds started to grow faster than the corn. We would spend long days in the hot sun hoeing each row to keep the weeds at bay so the tender corn stalks could grow to maturity. Finally, by the middle of the next season, we had a bountiful harvest. However, we still had much work to do to preserve it. We canned some, we froze some, we even gave away some to others. Now, I am building a business and all the things I learned in tending the corn field prevents me from being discouraged. I know it will take a lot of work and I have to get out of my comfort zone in order to tend each row (market areas). However, in the right season, I fully expect a bountiful harvest. All my best, Norma

I am a spam hater through and through. I haven' t found one thing funny about it yet. Too much of it is pure filth and tells me a lot about the person sending it. My husband who is the quiet reserved type received a filthy spam email from a person who used the name of a female church going friend from back home. This email really shook him up and he quickly called for me to take a look. However, when I checked out the email address I knew at once it wasn't the friend from back home. The subject heading didn't give a clue to the content or he wouldn't have opened it to start with. I have received several spam emails which I thought were from people I know. It seems some people will use all kinds of trickery to get to you. Wouldn't it be great if they would all disappear? Where is David Copperfield when I need him? All my best, Norma
