Leadership is not a natural ability that people are born with. Rather, it is a skill that can be acquired and developed.

Leadership starts with desire... to learn, to teach, to lead, to be an example. And while leadership starts with desire, I feel the most important aspect of true leadership is taking action.

You can read and study everything you can find on becoming a strong and effective leader, but all that reading and studying is useless unless you are willing to act upon

Hi Khalil,

The best way to "assure" duplication is to become a true leader in your business. You want to be that person who leads by example, who builds and nurtures a reputation of being the kind of person who others will naturally want to follow.

How do you become such a leader? You must first and foremost be an example for your team. Do the things you would have your team do, read the things you would have your team read.

The quick and simple answer to your question is yes and no.

The only aspect of your SFI business that you should ever consider automating is your marketing. There are many free and cost-based tools that will allow you to do this. Many of the safelists and text ad networks will allow you to upload your ad and then, provided you have sufficient credits in your account, will automatically repost your ad. There are even automated macro scripts that you can use to log in to your various marketing

Hello and thank you for asking this very interesting question.

In my opinion and experience, I can’t really say that there is any one thing that can be said to be overrated by SFI.

I have seen many answers on here that claim for logging in daily and doing your daily tasks to be the most overrated activity, yet this is a standpoint that I disagree with. Again, this is just my opinion, but here is why, which also ties in with what I feel to be one of the most underrated activity,

Hi Alvin,

This is a great question. Thank you.

First and foremost, it is important for us to remember that SFI is a business... our business. By taking part in SFI's affiliate program, we are invoking the right to call ourselves business owners.

As with any business, we set goals to achieve and have a plan in place to achieve those goals. Part of that part typically involves having a system by which we measure our progress. As we achieve our goals, we feel a sense
