I wasn't very productive (household chores) the entire day today .. I spent most of my time day today, I was online, browsing, social media about the business, checking catalogues and praying, and thinking about who to invite that wouldn't reject me.. wow.. I'm such a worry-wart.. I KNOW!!
We have this homework actually, last night after signing up, Tamlyn asked us to think about WHY we said YES.. Why did we join the business..
Kuya Nath and ate Chei (first group of friends we've met here) are the ones who invited us last Saturday. They planned to setup another launching so that we can invite our friends, (team effort 😉) so I tried to ask an acquaintance.. (I've got very few friends here, mostly acquaintance). I got turned down, but I understand, it is a Sunday and 'twas a short notice.
We have this homework actually, last night after signing up, Tamlyn asked us to think about WHY we said YES.. Why did we join the business..
For me, here's why:
First, to earn extra income obviously.. I've been out of the corporate world for 2 years now, .. I miss my paycheck ( not the work tho' 😊)
Next, I really like to try the product, at a discounted price.. yaaasss!
Lastly which is a bit personal for me, I wanted to challenge myself. This business is waaaaay beyond my comfort zone. Yup, all sorts of business invites like this is a "No" for me. I mean as a good friend I would often attend when friends invite me to such event, launching or any MLM business. But I don't really sign up after that..perhaps I'd buy this and that then that's it. Why? because I know I can't make it work, I know myself, I know I am not confident enough to talk to people and as I said I'm a passive, pessimist person.
This one's a bit different though, prior to coming over to David's crib, me and my husband prayed first.. we prayed that if this business opportunity ate Chei and Kuya Nath is offering us will be good for us let us know Lord. We've been praying for another source of income or a business opportunity for our family for quite sometime now.
But when we arrived, I saw those brochures and products...I was thinking "Uh-oh smells like MLM/Networking...naaahh it is not for me Lord so I guess Your answer is no "
I said to myself, "ok you know the drill, just listen and maybe buy something to help them get points, no biggie"
So I just sit back, relax and enjoyed the presentation. While listening, it piqued my interest. I loved the products and love how the company works.. though it's a bit unclear.. but there is a gentle nudge inside me telling me to try it..
After the presentation, I was torn if I will sign up or not... I was in dilemma.. I know this feeling.. I got this every time I have to make some decisions that involves money, career, future etc. I always play it safe. But.. this time I decided to say "yes" not knowing what the outcome will be.. I've decided to be positive about it.. so what if I don't know anyone here.. God will provide! hahaha..
I'll take a step forward I trust my support system and of course.. God's with me no matter what..

Note to self:
Let's not overthink, ask help, take it slow.. one step at a time.. enjoy the journey...
