You Can Be The Evolv Cinderella Story

Being a Cinderella story means you have overcome all the odds to reach something that others had deemed unattainable for you. It’s no secret that one of the reasons I chose to attend a small private college in southern Minnesota was because I wanted to live in the “State of Hockey.” And although it’s been a few years since I’ve left Minnesota, I still find myself cheering for their college teams. One of my favorite Cinderella stories would have to be from the small town of Bemidji, Minnesota and the 2009 Bemidji (pronounced ba-mij-ee) State University hockey team.

In the tournament, the usual college hockey powerhouses were in the top 16 including Boston, Michigan and Minnesota Duluth, but it was rounded out by the Bemidji Beavers proudly holding spot #16. In the first round, Bemidji stunned #2 ranked Notre Dame with a 5-1 win…unbelievable! In the next round, Bemidji faced #9 ranked Cornell University and came out with a 4-1 victory. This feat alone made the Beavers the first ever 16th ranked team to reach the frozen four! That alone will give you goosebumps. This team worked together to overcome all the odds and all the naysayers to get to where they wanted to be. And although the Beavers did not go on to win the entire tournament, you can’t forget the tenacity and grace they showed from game to game.

I shared this story with Dr. Anne and she quickly said, “well that sounds like network marketing!” Wait, network marketing is like hockey? No wonder I feel at home here! She went on to tell me this:

“Often when you don’t feel like making one more call, or doing another PER because some guests have canceled, these are the times when you push through and commit to doing what you said you were going to do for your business. Something shifts and your commitment and dedication is recognized once again. Every day people unexpectedly connect with you inquiring about what you’re doing, if they can place an order, or better yet, become a Member. I’ve personally experienced this type of scenario in my network marketing career and have talked with countless other leaders who have shared the same. So how can you make the most of it? Finish each month strong and with a purpose by making the last few calls that you know you need to make and attend or host the PER that you scheduled at the beginning of the week. By following through with these actions (especially when you can think of a million other things you could be doing) a difference is made between those who build strong businesses with reproductive residual income and those who wish for it.”

Anne and I would both like to congratulate you for making the decision to Evolv, to Evolv your business and yourself! Taking the first step is always important, but pushing until the end is crucial if you want to reach the top. Here are a few quotes Dr. Anne and I found that could help give you that extra push to reaching your goal:

“I advise you to say your dream is possible and then overcome all inconveniences, ignore all the hassles and take a running leap through the hoop, even if it is in flames.” – Les Brown

“Good business leaders create a vision, articulate the vision, passionately own the vision, and relentlessly drive it to completion.” – Jack Welch

“Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else’s hands, but not you. “ – Jim Rohn

“In essence, if we want to direct our lives, we must take control of our consistent actions. It’s not what we do once in a while that shapes our lives, but what we do consistently.” – Tony Robbins

“The highest compliment that you can pay me is to say that I work hard every day, that I never dog it.” – Wayne Gretzky
