Are you an Opportunist or are you Purpose Driven?

by Kristina Tucker and Noel Giger

Want to GLOW your business in 2018?  Take an inventory of your actions and determine areas that you want to change!

Opportunistic	Purpose Driven
Does not set aside time for their business	Intentional in time planning and usage
Goes with the flow in conversations	Intentional in conversations, actively listening for problems and ready to present solutions
Tries something occasionally, and gives up easily	Works with a specific goal in mind and doesn’t quit until all attempts to achieve have been made.
Blames the company or upline for problems	Problem solves independently
Is complacent	Is creative
Waits to be told what they should do	Self-educates and is always learning
Does not see their business as integrated with their life, but as a separate entity	Applies everyday situations to business decisions/goals
Is critical of themselves and others	Has positive self-speak
Dreams about success	Sets SMART Goals and plans to achieve those goals
Dwells on past failures or present problems	Looks ahead
Does not consider their own actions and how they led to failures	Reviews the past to determine steps to fix the future
Sees an empty calendar and complains that no one wants to book a party	Sees empty calendars and dedicates time to filling it
Wants immediate gratification	Sees the value in consistency
Doesn’t occur to them to upsell during a sale	Upsells naturally as part of the sales process
Waits for someone to give them a script	Creates scripts based on research and personal experience, and shares with others
Waits for someone to tell them to book parties	Actively considers each person they meet as a potential host or referrer
Hopes someone will reach out to them for a party	Consistently seeks out fresh cold market contacts
Only talks about the opportunity when asked first	Plants team building seeds in many conversations, groups and parties
Waits for home office to offer specials to advertise	Creates their own incentives and marketing plans
Waits for someone to complement their nails	Actively complements others to strike up conversations
Hopes for sales parties and recruits	Has a plan in place to fill their booking and team building pipelines
Checks for orders when you get a payment email	Checks workstation daily to monitor home office communications and customer/team activities
