Wanna Be a Top MLM Leader? Change Your Routine

"top mlm" "mlm system"I recently read a book called the “Compound Effect” by Darren Hardy and it made me realize that although I do a lot of things right, I could be doing a better job and getting more results if I tweaked my routine. Darren does a great job of explaining that all the results in your life (good or bad) have come from your daily routine. So, if you want better results, say, to become a top mlm leader, then lets look at that routine!

My New Routine

So, after reading the book I decided to set my alarm on my phone for 5am every morning and get up and do some of the things that I have not had time for. So my routine is currently:

5am – Wake, write my affirmations, drink glass of water
5:10am – Workout
5:50am – Meditate for 15-20 (depends on the day)
6:15am – Set my clock to read for 30 mins (not the newspaper, motivational or marketing books)
6:45am – Set my top 3 goals and THEN open my emails

Now, I know some of you work full-time and are trying to build your network marketing business opportunity part-time. But, look at what you can get accomplished before 7am if you put your mind to it! Do I want to get up at 5am? Definitely not, but, I know there is a payoff there that makes sense for me and my goals.

“Everything you want in life is just outside your comfort zone”
– Jack Canfield

If you want to lead a better life, make more money, become a top mlm leader, or lose a bunch of weight, you have to be willing to change and make sacrifices. I get all of this done in the morning so that I can concentrate my day on building my business via prospecting, doing 3 way calls or coaching my teammates.

"top mlm" How you can make small changes that will make an impact

If you are part-time building your network marketing business opportunity, think about ways you can maximize the time that you do have. Can you bring your lunch (thereby saving you a lot of money) and make calls to prospects while on your lunch break? Can you get up one hour earlier to send out facebook correspondence? Can you work a few hours more before you go to bed? Don’t try to overdo it at first but here is something I definitely know and you should as well…

Your Time Management Will Dictate the Velocity and Depth of Your Success

Have a crazy schedule? Well, how long do you want to have it? Would you rather make sacrifices the next year and work an even crazier schedule or do you want to keep that crazy schedule that will never give you the freedom you so desire?

Some Simple Ideas to Help

– If you are driving somewhere, use that time to either talk to prospects or if it is too early or late, listen to motivational or marketing audio books.

– Status Quo will keep you where you are. If you usually go out to lunch with the office girls or boys, think about how you could spend that time better. (I didn’t say this would be comfortable!)

– Turn off the damn TV. Your television set is an electonic income reducer that is guaranteed to work 100% of the time. Turn it off and instead prospect, read or talk to your spouse or family (imagine that!)

You will NOT become a top mlm leader without making a change, how bad do you want it?

    Amen. Suffering now will SOOO pay off in the long run. So easy yet misunderstood by many.

    Great post Ray, as always!

    Thank you!!

    Hey Ray,

    I have recently gone through the same thing and also try my hardest to get up at 5am, sometimes to read, sometimes to meditate, sometime to just watch the sunrise and make sure I have time for breakfast before the house wakes up. Sometimes to work.

    After setting my alarm for 5am for the last couple of months, I now automatically seem to wake up at 5am and I don’t actually mind it, in fact as long as I am not too tired it is very rewarding to get up so early.

    I am sure your new routine will work out great for you.
    Beth 🙂

    Your totaly right, just ask any successful person how much sacrifice is needed to succeed. And the time management is critical to success also, TV is a time management killer. Thanks for the tips.

    Hi Ray,

    Great post Ray. You are an amazing leader, that’s why so many people love ya.

    I just ordered the book from Darren. I’ve been a top MLM income earner for years. And there really is something to be said for getting up at 5am and having quite time.

    One of my favorite things is to watch the morning come a live and to stop and be grateful for all I have in my life. Powerful stuff.

    You have a choice so, make it a better than terrific day!

    Ray –

    Good stuff! Time management is critical no matter how busy you are!

    As a mom, a wife, a corporate executive, a business owner, and more, it is extremely important for me to plan each day (or I do not achieve my goals).

    I use Google Calendar to schedule everything (well… almost everything! Not scheduling potty breaks yet!).

    Thanks for pointing out what it will achieve for success!

    Thanks Ray. I did hear about that book “Compound Effect” from somewhere. But thanks for the highlighted idea of the book. I really like the quote there: “Everything you want in life is just outside your comfort zone”.

    Very well said!

    Hi Ray….
    I have something to send you that you may be interested in.
    Will e-mail you the information…. I think this will be up your alley.

    Hello Ray, Another great article. Organizing time is a very important factor in having property. I am having to work real hard to accomplish this. Make every second count and you will succeed. Thanks, Andrew Gallop

    I do some very similar things to your schedule. I wake up and write my affirmations, and look at my dream board. Go to Yoga, then set my goals for the day. Where I differ is that I don’t open my email until the end of the day, after I’ve accomplished my goals. If I look at it before I could get side tracked or have to deal with something that takes me away from accomplishing my goals. I also read at the end of the day before I go to bed, and then rewrite my affirmations.

    I think more people need to set an actual schedule and stick with it. They would be amazed at the results.

    I’ve bookmarked this, and shared it on FB and Twitter.

    Oh my, this is something I struggle with everyday. I have so much on my plate that sometimes I feel like I’m driving in reverse. I typically get a lot done in a day, however, due to me making my load too heavy I’m not as effective as I’d like to be.
    I’m going to buy the book “Compound Effect” and apply it. I will respond with an update.

    Thanks for sharing!

  22. Garth says

    It was great meeting Darren in Tampa. He is so far my favorite speaker I have seen, besides you:)

    I have been listening to the audio and setting some new routines. I am now up at 5:45am, wake/breathe/stretch, out the door for a run, back to do my 3 daily tasks to build my business, all before 7:30 for the wife and daughter wake up. In 3 weeks it will be set in stone!

    Thanks for the post Ray, great stuff!

  23. Seameka Pledger says

    Thanks Ray! This post is one to live by. I definitely took away Platinum Nuggets! You’re an alright guy. I appreciate you sharing all that you do.

  24. Laura says

    That was great thanks. I love the quote from Jack Canfield. It is so true. Time to get out of the comfort zone.

  25. Fefe the Prosperity Genie says

    Hey Ray, great advice and content. I am listening to the audio this week as well and look forward to realizing how I can make some profound changes in my prospecting time. Thanks again. Fefe

  26. Fred Williams says

    Thanks for sharing the knowledge Ray. Sometimes you need to hear stuff like this to snap you back to reality. Considering all of the achievements that you already have made, I think it would be wise for everyone who reads this post to take your advice. Thanks for sharing.

    Thanks, Ray, for yet another helpful post. As of a few weeks ago, I used to say — consciously or SUBconsciously — “I’m nocturnal,” or “I’m definitely NOT a morning person!” But a few weeks ago I noticed that the vast majority of the top income producers are, indeed, MORNING PEOPLE who get up and get a great deal accomplished BEFORE 8am. Today, since I’m not generating the leads I require to build my Numis business, I spend the prime hours of the day prospecting the few leads I have, then writing/creating my marketing material (blog posts, vlog videos, social media posts/comments) so that I CAN generate leads. Eventually, I WILL have more leads than I have time because I’m not managing my time (which is a misnomer), but I’m managing MYSELF IN time!

    Thanks for the great blog post. I really like what you’ve put together here. You’re blog is very powerful thanks for the info!

    Hi Ray,

    I really like the idea of getting up early in the morning, I usually stay up until late and it seems that it takes me longer to get things done. I’ll follow your advice once my girls start school and see how I can implement an earlier schedule to my biz.

    Thanks for sharing 🙂

  31. Oliver Tausend says

    Hi Ray,

    great article. Congratulations on your new daily routine. Everybody can do it – it’s easy to do and it’s just as easy not to do. That’s why it is important to start small, but to start no matter how small.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Take care

    Oliver

  32. Tom Carter says

    Very good info Ray. You are always spot on with your information. By getting a earley planned out start you make the day. Thanks for the wake up call no pun intended.

  33. Scott Johnson says

    Why not wake at 4AM ? Or better yet, don’t sleep and work 24/7 – become a workaholic and forget having a life …

  36. John Panella says

    Ray, changing my routine and following a program has helped me make major progress. The timing of this post is perfect as I am just about at the end of my 6 month knee surgery rehab! All my routines are getting adjusted based on new, advanced fitness programs and some enlightening business coaching! Even with major challenges still looming, I can breathe easy as and feel good about my production.

    Two of my favorite quotes
    “if you want things in life to change… you will have to change things in life” and, “if you continue to do what you always have done… you’ll continue to get what you always have gotten”

    Thanks Ray!

    These are great tips! I am definitely interested in checking out the book that you mentioned, The Compound Effect. It sounds like one of my favorite books The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson which is about how making small choices every day makes a big difference over time, either for your success or failure. A favorite quote of mine from the book is that successful people do what unsuccessful people are unwilling to do.

    I listen to the audio version of this book often.

  38. E Don Bailey says

    Thanks Ray, I also had a private talk with Daren and thanks for reminding me I need to get on with the program I set up for myself.

  39. Jennifer May says

    Hi Ray! What a great post… and definitely hit the nail on the head! Making that extra time to create a schedule that will lead you to success is required to achieve any goal or dream you desire.

    I know when I was working outside the home trying to build my business a few years back, it was crazy, insane and simply jam packed. But it was WORTH IT! I am a MOMpreneur of two beautiful little girls and I sacrificed a lot during my first year building my first successful Home Business.

    But that is the sacrifice that now led me to spending each and everyday with my daughters and living life on my OWN terms! So, very well said Ray and many will benefit from this post! 🙂 Thank you!

    Ray,

    I love this reminder! I am working on a free offer for my blog that will serve as an organizational tutorial of sorts….so this stuff is very much on my mind.

    Having loose ends tied up and everything in it’s place leaves all kinds of room for creative thought and productive energy to flow, both of which are necessary components for any entrepreneur.

    Thanks for sharing this!

    It all comes down to making a decision. You either want it or you don’t. As the wise Yoda said Do or Do Not, There Is No Try.

  43. Nomusa Mhlanga says

    Great post ray. I enjoy all your posts really.

    My since last week: I go to bed at 9pm, set alarm for 1:30am, do my mlm stuff up to 5am, exercise 30minutes, read my Bible and meditate up to 6am, Read a motivational book up to 6:30am (Reading Think & Grow Rich now), Get ready for work and leave 7am 30minute drive on MP3 motivational material, Start work 7:30am, pick up my groceries 15minutes lunch time, catch up on sleep up to 2pm, knock off work 4:30pm, drive back home 30mins (MP3), 5-7pm family time (No TV!), 7-7:30pm time with my hubby, 7:30-9:00pm Skype and telephone time and it starts all over again.

    I need hints & tips on how to maximize my 1:30-5:00am activities.

  45. Nomusa Mhlanga says

    The skype, telephone time in the evenings is when I call my leads when I have any and I am not yet getting that many so I’m open to learning more to improve my performance.
