Let us look at this question from a totally different perspective.
Whether you have personal goals or team ones, you are always going to be reliant on something or someone to help you achieve your ambition and this is also true in business. The extent to which you receive that help will vary with people but it is a fact that you will be supported in your achievements by one or many stimuli.
For example, your parents are a source of great support to you if you decide to become a competitive swimmer-they will encourage, get you motivated to train, pay for your coach to improve your strokes and sacrifice their time to ensure that you have the right atmosphere for your training. Of course much more investment goes into your training than what I have mentioned and "you" take up the challenge and work towards that dream. Without your input, your parents have nothing to show for as your achievement!
In the same context, your sponsor takes on a similar support role but it is not going to be entirely his/her responsibility to ensure that you are successful. You have to work your business. Without your input, your business will not be what you expect it to - successful.
Your sponsor can only do so much. Some of us do not have a Sponsor therefore you cannot rely on him/her. Perhaps less than 2-5% of your success will depend on your Sponsor; 95% of what you do will impact on your business. This is not to say that the 5% from your Sponsor is irrelevant-it is important but it does not mean that you cannot hit the finishing line by yourself. It all depends on you and what you want - how strong do you finish.
This would be a cumulative effect of the lessons you learn from your sponsor, the hardships you face to learn the business, your motivation and passion to want to succeed that will make your business successful. Your determination and commitment towards it will determine how well you progress not so much of how reliant you are on your sponsor.
