I am pretty sure that I heard this quote from Brad Wolgamott when I was an Amway Distributor on the 90’s:
“In order to empower others, you must first be powerful.”
It’s no secret that you gain power with knowledge and that is one of the reasons why I read five to six books a months and spend thousands of dollars a year on my education.
Back in my Amway days, the book list we were provided did not include much in the way of new information. I can pretty much guarantee that Perry Marshall, Dan Kennedy and Yanik Silver, (all masters of marketing) have not made their way to the World Wide Dream Builders book list.
But thanks to my time spent in Amway, I learned how to become a student and I learned the value of self improvement and continuing education. I guess I should mention that I created my first six-figure Network Marketing income shortly after leaving Quixtar, which was the online version of Amway.
Anyway, as a leader, you must learn to empower the people in your business to achieve their best and brightest and I don’t believe that you can do that without building a better you, through personal development.
Remember, the difference between a professional and a $2.97 bonus check earner is knowledge and persistence, not talent.
