In this book, Robert Kiyosaki explains that building a network marketing business is a revolutionary way to achieve wealth. Kiyosaki shows how the system makes it possible for anyone to acquire great wealth. He also points out some of the flaws and challenges of a network marketing business.
Here are some of my favorite excerpts from
Direct Quotations from the book are in "quotes".
My thoughts or paraphrasing are --dashed.
“One of the beauties of network marketing is that it gives you the opportunity to face your fears, overcome your fears, and let the winner in you win. The beauty of network marketing companies is that the leaders in the organization have the patience to work with you while you are learning[…] Today, I strongly recommend network marketing, because the industry offers the same opportunity […to everyone]”
“Selling is the most important skill in business. It is also your most important skill in life."
“The most successful people in the world are the most rejected people in the world. The people that are running from rejection are the least successful people on the planet.”
Rejection + correction = education and acceleration
"Most people are not successful because they’ve not been rejected enough.”
--The more I risk being rejected, the better my chances are of being accepted.
“If you want to become more successful in life, simple seek more rejection and then correction. The beauty of a network marketing business is that the leaders encourage you to go out and get some rejection. What an opportunity! If you truly desire greater success in life, join a network marketing company and learn to overcome your fears of rejection. If you spend 5 years doing that, I would bet that the rest of your life would be vastly more successful [...] Today, millions of people all over the world are rejecting me. That’s why I’m getting richer and richer."
“The great thing about network marketing is that if you are going to be successful, you have to be a great teacher. If you love teaching, you will do well in network marketing.
"Personally, teaching is far more rewarding than just selling. To me, the beauty of a network marketing business is that the business trains you to be a teacher, not just a salesperson. If you love teaching and learning, a network marketing business is a great business to join. That is why I entitled this book, “The Business School for People Who Like Helping People.”
--Leaders do what most people are afraid of doing.
“One of the great values of building a network marketing business is that it will test your emotional intelligence, and in many cases greatly improve it […] Therefore, I would say that investing a number of years building a network marketing business might pay off in many other areas of your life. Why? Because life is a very emotional subject.”
“A happy marriage between two people is definitely due to emotional intelligence more than two people with good grades and good jobs earning a lot of money.”
“People who dream small dreams continue to live lives as small people. Big people have big dreams and small people have small dreams. If you want to change who you are, begin by changing the size of your dream.”
