Could Network Marketing Be an Option for You?

Once upon a time…….

I’m a business teacher by trade. Most of what I became certified to teach is obsolete. Does Typewriteranyone still own a typewriter – just askin….

Back then, job security was not an oxymoron. People actually expected to have a career working at one place for forty years! Translation: one job, one career for a lifetime. Social Security was something to depend on for a secure retirement. That was then; this is now.

USA Today conducted a survey. The results shocked a lot of people. According to the survey, the biggest fear Americans have is running out of money in retirement!

It’s probably time to examine your options:

You can:
1. Work for someone else
2. Start a small business
3. Own a franchise
4. Win the lottery
5. Start a home-based business

As a teacher, I obviously chose Option #1. When I needed to make more money, I went out and chose Option #1 again. I wasn’t making enough money full-time, so I went out and started working part-time. Does any of this sound familiar?

If you are ready to get proactive about Option #5, you can explore the possibilities of network marketing. There are certainly other options for starting a home-based business; however, network marketing provides a turnkey operation with a very minimal cost to get involved. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel, AND you will have a support team to help you.

Network Marketing Workshop

There are many things to examine when you are choosing a company to wrap your arms around. All companies and teams are NOT created equal. Know what to look for.

I will be conducting a generic network marketing workshop in RI on September 7. The workshop is entitled, “Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Network Marketing, But Were Afraid To Ask.”

The details will follow in another post. In the meantime, you can go to the following site to start your due diligence. Go here to check out the facts about the industry. It’s real. It’s not easy. That’s why the only place success comes before work is in the dictionary.I would never infer that this industry is easy, but I have found it absolutely worth it! One of my favorite descriptions of network marketing is that it is a personal development plan with a compensation plan attached to it!

Are Your Muscles as Healthy as Chewbacca’s?

Everyone out there probably recognizes my friend Chewbacca. Why have I includedChewbacca-and-janet this photo here? I want to make a point about muscle health. What better model than Chewy?

You can’t necessarily evaluate muscle health by looking at someone. Good muscle health will help you avoid illness and recover more rapidly if you do get ill. We all know the dangers of falling and breaking something as we age.

According to Dr. Donald K. Layman, “Muscle size and strength are usually associated with body builders and athletes, but the latest research is proving that healthy muscles are critical for adult health. Average life expectancy continues to increase, but along with the blessing of longer life comes the risk of age-related diseases. The risks for obesity, diabetes, osteoporosis, heart disease, and cancers increase with advancing age. Excluding individuals who die early in life from an accident, injury or acute illness, we all expect to live healthy and robust lives well into our 80’s or beyond. For adults over the age of 65, the real risks for loss of health relate to muscle function and mobility. The measure of functional mobility is defined as the ability to perform activities of daily living or ADL. ADL is a measure of independent living and directly predicts morbidity and mortality – how healthy will you be? … and how long will you live?” 

Of course, I can’t guarantee that you will age as well as Chewy has since 1977!! The idea, however, is to live longer younger. No matter what your age, now is the time to start taking care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.
