In SFI, we have a great opportunity to apply the distinction between working hard vs. working smart.
Is working smart anyone of us who succeeds in building their business, earning substantial monthly commissions while growing their residual income. Working smart is getting results without much stress.
Whoever toils day in and day out, stresses over minor issues and is not getting anywhere, is working hard.
Below is my personal "take-away" from your question. It is what I try to do and it is what I advise my team members to implement in their efforts to make SFI a success in their lives.
SFI has a clearly defined path to success: doing identified sets of actions including building up both sales and actions Versa Points (VP), sponsoring affiliates and teaching them duplication, selling TripleClicks products and services, promoting as much income streams as possible.
What we want is to sponsor active affiliates whom we guide to follow our path and help them go on to build their own teams of successful PSAs. We also want to refer active PRMs who are repeat buyers of TripleClicks and satisfied customers. We also will benefit by signing up business owners who list their products and be successful E-Commerce Associates (ECAs)
Whoever does the above consistently, improving on their experience, is working "SMART".
If you want to make sure you are working smart, if you want to be part of this group, you need to use as many tips as you can among those you will find throughout the tabs of our daily "to-do-list," the Marketing Center, the training sections and other parts of the SFI knowledge database. Apply the ideas you find there, making sure you fully understand both their spirit and letter. An advice is only as good as the understanding of the person who wants to follow it, and has the ability to implement it.
But, first, you want to go back to "SFI Basics", fully understand what is required of you, what activity is most likely to bring you the best results and focus on it, while improving your knowledge of SFI, then, taking action to get results with less time and effort. If you do the above, you are working smart.
Everybody needs to avoid "working hard" with no results. This may happen here, with SFI, if somebody neglected to pay full attention to the training, going through the various modules, collecting VPs, without assimilating the information, glancing through the Launchpad lessons without understanding their purpose, trying to build a website to be a copy-cat to SFI's, without focus on what is important, neglecting what is the most useful to attract prospects.
Whoever finds himself caught up in this second type of behavior, is working hard, but, potentially without significant results to show for his time and the resources he is spending.
Hopefully, with this question you raised, many of us will think about how they are spending their time and resources and re-adjust to avoid working hard without results, and, instead, know how to work smart, make progress, and see results.
