Cross country snowmobiling is a passion of ours! Although it's actually hard work, and there's a lot to learn and master, it's all well worth the effort. It is so much fun and the scenery is absolutely gorgeous! |
|
We have a lot of beautiful pictures from our snowmobiling trips. Everybody always enjoys looking at them. People paint a picture in their mind's eye of going snowmobiling themselves. Often they do! |

After we've been out riding across the mountains for a few hours, nothing tastes better that a hot cup of apple cider or hot chocolate. So, among many other things, we carry a big thermos in our saddle bags. |

Then at night, after returning to the cabin, comes the long, hot, relaxing showers. Then we really enjoy watching movies on the vcr. |

As much
as I enjoy snowmobiling, I also enjoy networking. In fact, over
the years it has been networking that has given me the finances
and the time to go snowmobiling. Also my beliefs systems are
parallel about the two. If think that if anyone really understood
(and the key here is "really understanding") cross country
snowmobiling, barring any physical
preventatives, how could they help but not want to do it? Likewise,
if someone really understands the opportunity associated with
networking, they would most certainly want to
become a part of it.
Just as we
learn techniques and gain
experience to really enjoy snowmobiling, you have to do
the same thing to really enjoy and be successful in your networking
business. If you're not willing to put out the effort, you probably
won't ever reap all the benefits from the activity.
If you want somebody to join your business, you have to give them the information and help
them picture themselves in your business. It's just like the
snowmobile pictures we show, giving friends a way to be able
to paint themselves into that picture. "If they can't see themselves
in your business, most likely they won't be in it!"
With the thermos, we open it up in the morning to
pour the liquid in and we also unscrew the cups and top to pour the
liquid out. Sometimes you have
to open someone up to receiving what you have to offer. That may
mean first explaining all the good things about networking in
general. Often people with preconceived notions don't really know
the fabulous truth about networking and the wonderful benefits it
has to offer people. And when it comes time for this person to
function within your business and build their own business, they
have to open up and be receptive to information, guidance,
training and help. Have you ever tried to put a tape in a VCR
and a tape is already in it? That simply reminds you that often
you have to get something out, before you can get
something in. Sometimes you're going to have to work with your
people to remove misconceptions and bad habits so that new information
can be taken in. Be a student of the system. The system is simply
learning all you can about what you're doing, working
hard to put it to use, and sharing what you know with others. That
way you in turn learn from others, enjoy the
activity and become good at it. Also learn to listen to others about
themselves, before you try to tell them about you. You may often
find the need for some opening up and exchanges before you try to
put new information and activity in. Remember, good on top of bad
still leaves bad as the foundation.
