Greetings to you:

I have learned patience. This is a valuable component, that evolves around
my business, consistently.

Having a non -active affiliate in your
downline, requires patience, lots of
communication with them, daily, weekly
or whatever time endurance, you may have.

Reading, teaching, understanding, allotted times, motivating, the examples to your downlines consistently, takes valuable t I m e, and p a t I e n c e.

I've yet to reach my first year but would like to share the most important lesson I've learned: Never underestimate your capacity to learn and adapt.

There are days when I read about a new way to promote my biz, well new in the sense that I haven't tried it before and my initial reaction is, 'heck no! That's too complicated for me/ I'm too old to try that/(insert whatever excuse comes to mind)' ..

The truth is, we are only as capable as we allow ourselves to be.

I like your question.
I have being in the SFI business just about 10 months now and not quite a year, but it is just not one valuable thing I have learned in my SFI business.
The main thing I have learned though is that to build a successful SFI business you need to develop a successful team, but also to be mentor by a successful team also.
The more people I help to become successful the more I will be successful.
Also to be successful you have to have a good mentor, in this

In my half year with SFI, the most valuable thing I learned (the hard way) is to take my time, not rush things and everything will eventually fall in place.

Do not become Team Leader without having a team of EA2s. You may find yourself spending a lot trying to maintain the TL status and the benefits won't be there.

Start by maintaining your EA2 status every month, build your team of at least five EA2s and then push to become Team Leader!

To our success!

To never give up. We all have days that we wonder is all worth it and I have found that you just got to keep trying. That is the only way to get anywhere. Otherwise you will never make it to your goal. Which is another valuable lesson. Set your goal and keep working till you get there. Then raise your goal a little higher and work even harder to reach it,

The most important things in this business are recruiting, following up and selling. You should have an idea, by now, where best to advertise so recruiting is basically that. But when it comes to following up you've got to be meticulous and touch peoples heart. Selling is just that. Hard or easy you have to have it in you :-) hope I helped.
