How do I love thee, SFI? Let me count the ways....
Well, Elizabeth Barrett Browning had the right idea. I would not even try to enumerate the myriad reasons, but what is there not to love?

Almost every day, there is news of yet another bonus or improvement that makes the journey to higher levels much more enjoyable.

When a suggestion is rejected, Gery lets us know, with the practical, logical, and/or legal reason. He is looking out after our best interests.

Should I stick strictly to using SFI's system or would it benefit me to add some of my own touches and strategies?

Why would you want to re-invent the wheel? Do you have that much extra time on your hands? The material

offered by SFI is time-tested to be effective. And remember that SFI also has rules and policies in place

concerning independent advertising. Would you really want to be banned because you violated just one term

of agreement? Stick to the tried and true and you will do fine.

I am answering as a sponsor. I add my email address to my team mail with the invitation to ask questions. If anyone on my team wants attention, please let them know .... I love it when they do ask; it tells me I am not leading in a vacuum. My movers seem to be the ones who communicate the most. Perhaps that is why they are movers.

When do I know that I've become successful in SFI and TripleClicks?

I feel that success or the perception of success is very personal. My success is not necessarily what you deem as success.

Take a look at your goals tab. If you have been setting your monthly and long-term goals,
are you consistently reaching 100%?

Are you consistently needing to increase your goals?

That might be one indication that you are successful.

How much time a day, approximately, do I need to invest in SFI to build a profitable business?

I don't time myself on my activities. I take as long as I need for that particular day. One hour or two hours, or more? It depends. You might read quickly while someone else has challenges.
Don't rush through the activities. There might be something important that you miss. Take time to understand what you are doing. Success is there waiting for us, no matter how long it takes.

What makes you persevere with SFI and not quit?

What makes me persevere?....To be honest, I am stubborn. When "friends" tell me I don't have a chance to succeed, I want to prove them wrong. I have worked so hard these last several months, I shudder to think of
losing it all in one rash action.
I now have a team. I can hope that they look to me for leadership.
When I look at all the badges I have earned, I feel a thrill. If they were gone, what would I have except those memories, and my "friends" saying, "We
