O- Objecitve
A- Actions needed to meet weekly objectives
T- Time, how much time will it take? [add 15%, just in case]
S- Schedule it
O – Objectives: What results do you want to see by the end of the week? Write them down and rank them.
A – Activities: What do you have to do to achieve these objectives? List the necessary activities and put them in sequence. Remember, getting to a monthly income of $5,000 takes place over time yet invariable happens for people who focus on it weekly/daily.
T – Time: How much time will each activity require? To plan realistically, allow yourself more time than you think you will actually need. This give you flexibility in unexpected challenges occur.
S – Schedule: Look at your calendar and decide when you want to do each activity. Write it down. Most people underestimate the power of a schedule. The difference between knowing what to do and doing it is wether or not you schedule it.
BONUS: In addition to doing O.A.T.S. weekly, create the habit of cleaning up your desk, line up your work for the next day, review your next days appointments and then read you goals out loud.

There is an old saying, Change your Mind, Change your Life
Have you ever really thought about this saying? I mean really taken a moment, stopped and thought about the power of our mind?
Change Your Mind about the letters XXX
The idea for this blog post came to me from a bottle of VitaminWater I recently drank. The particular one I picked, XXX, contained a thought provoking statement under the name XXX.
“ever notice XXX has a bit of a reputation? on a game show it’s a letdown to the whole family, in the video store it’s the section you “accidentally” wandered into, and in marriage, one X can be expensive, but three?! that’s why we’re cleaning up XXX’s reputation.”
The rest of the label goes on to explain all the wonderful benefits of the contents in the bottle of XXX Vitamin enhanced water you are about to consume.
I find it very Interesting how I immediately was able to change my mind about the way I viewed the letters XXX.
If you want me to be totally honest here, when I first read the XXX title my mind immediately jumped to a programed conclusion.
Do you automatically change your mind
Have you ever noticed how you automatically change your mind when you observe certain words, sounds, sights, smells, textures and tastes?
What do you think, does this video change your mind about problems?
Let me know in the comment section here what you think about changing your mind, change your life.

One of the team building skills I’m learning is how to properly network. According to the dictionary the word network means – a group of people who exchange information, contacts and experience for professional or social purposes.
Empowered People & Team Building Skills
I recently attending a training session by Trent Warner from Empowered People. Trent is a professional business recruiter who has decided to start his own business helping people find jobs. Trent’s years of experience has taught him what companies are looking for and how the jobs are actually filled. Trent and his partner Bill Scherpenberg have designed a system to teach people how to us networking to land their next job.
Team Building Skills and Job Search Facts
The training I attended was only 30 minutes, yet I learned some amazing team building skills. One of which is a skill I’m focusing on right now – networking. I also learned how jobs in today’s world are actually filled.
Here is are some interesting facts I found out. Fifty percent (50%) of the open jobs in today’s market are filled from within companies. Thirty-five percent (35%) of the jobs are filled through a person already in the company recommending some one they know, like and trust to the person who does the hiring in their company (networking). Fifteen percent (15%) are filled with Monster or Career Builder and three (3%) are filled using professional recruiters.
Network Marketing and Team Building Skills
What I believe is in order for you to create a really good part-time income in network marketing or a full-time one you need to have team building skills. One of the first skills you need is networking.
Just think about how much value you could add to the world by learning how to properly network. Not everyone you share you business opportunity with is going to want to join you.
By being willing to share your team building skills of networking with those who do not join your opportunity, you can add value to their life. By teaching them a new skill and maybe helping them get a more full filling job.
Learning how to properly network can even help your team members who have not built up their network marketing income to a level of being able to leave their job find a better job.
Here is a video of the team building skills I learned:
Your goal with this networking and team building skill is to:
- meet the person
- make a good impression and
- get the appointment to talk later to help each other.
This is what I would call a win, win situation. Let your team building skills allow you to make yourself more valuable.

Leadership skills training
Leadership is all about being adaptable. Because your network marketing organization is essentially a group of volunteers, you as the leader need to learn how to adapt to the personalities and skill sets of your partners. Leaders in any industry who exhibit adaptability have a far greater opportunity to create an environment of teamwork and support among their team members.
Leadership Skills Training Adjustment
Just yesterday I needed to make an adjustment in the leadership skills training I usually have with a new business partner. Most of my team like to find their leads on the internet using a free e-book called Success in Ten Steps; however this new member of the team do not join me via the internet and is not comfortable with generating people to talk to by using the internet.
Now, I had two choices here. I could have insisted she learn and follow my usually training and use the internet for her lead generation or I could adapt and help her with a method she is comfortable with right now.
John C. Maxwell and Leadership Skills Training
Adaptability was the avenue I decide upon. After all the goal here is to help her achieve her desires by following our simple 3 step system.
- striking and interest in our opportunity,
- having those interested review information and
- then collect their decisions
Being rigid on how to strike an interest in our opportunity would not have allowed my new partner the opportunity to achieve her dreams and desires.
As you are reading this your a probably wonder what does John C. Maxwell had to do this this story. Most people recognize his name as a professional in leadership skills training. I happen to be reading his book The Maxwell Daily Reader. The daily reader is 365 days of insight to develop the leader within you and influence those around you.
Yesterday, November 1st, reading was entitled Adaptability. I read the page in the morning during the time I have set aside for personal development. Later in the afternoon I had the scheduled my OATS appointment with my new partner. Thankfully I’d just read about how teamwork and personal rigidity just don’t mix.
Leadership skills training is all about being willing to adapt yourself to the team.
