What It Takes to Get Free
So I went to the gym in my condo this morning at 9 am. Loved it because I had the entire place all to myself. It overlooks the pool deck, which was deserted too. Seems everyone else in the building had to go back to work after the three-day holiday weekend.
I’m free, so what day of the week it is, or what time it is doesn’t matter much to me. But let’s be clear about something. Freedom is never free. I paid the price for years, going to events, learning skills and doing the work.
So here’s my challenge to you today…
If you’re already free, find someone in your group today you can help get free. (I’m doing meetings tonight and tomorrow for people in my team.)
And if you’re not free, what are you going to do today to get free?

At a meeting after meeting right now! 😉 J
I have just updated the system that I am using to prospect with (been behind for quite some time) and have my calendar in front of me to coordinate meetings around my JOB.
Can’t wait until I am free from the time constraints that my job imposes on me.
Time to get motivated and free!
Meeting a prospect at 6pm then home to call several more and set up next weeks appointments!
I take your challenge Randy!
I am reading books, spending money on coaching, listening to CD’s in personal development, network marketing, and trying to apply them.
At times though I feel like its not working, and I spent too much cash on these things….
But other times I feel I am doing the right thing…
Hopefully my seeds will bear fruit one day!
Ok I notice you listing a lot of things — but calling prospects was not one of them.

Busy work will not make you free, add prospect calling into your mix and stick with it. Always remember “Some will, some won’t so what who’s next.” Network marketing is the easiest business in the world to get started in, you get a complete turn key business for in many cases under a $1000 dollars, and it is a business just as a McDonald’s franchise is a business with the exception that the McDonalds will cost you well over a million to start. The low cost in many cases with network marketing can make the business just as easy not to do. Stay the course this is your business and proclaim it to everyone you know be proud of your profession and defend it against all who say it’s a scam. Pick up a copy of Beach Money by Jordan Adler a must read for anyone in networking. Success is a journey don’t pay attention to the detour signs along the way.
Moving forward, working with my team and keeping my eye on my goals.
New Month time to make new Goals, revisit old ones and keep moving forward.
Hey Randy Gage,
“What It Takes to Get Free”
when someone decide to get free, ferst off all, he has to put a goal and purpose to his life,to leave his confort zone, to make actions which bring his goal to be in the reality.To get free it’s mean to be responsible for yourself and your life. to get free is to do the job or the worrk you like to do, to accomplish purpose of life and like the saying:
“‘do what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life”.
Thank you for sharing with us,
I’m not totally Free just work on the old work 3 days a week the rest is network matketing what Im’ going to do today is reach new people to share the opportunity
and open their eyes.
We are so lucky to live in Free countries where why can do network marketing
just on thinking on countries like China wich they have bee restricted such opportunities for centuries so for us that we live in democratic countries you must take advvantage of that situation.
sincerely,
Sergio
-RG,
I’m not financially free yet.
Today I’m working with my up-line on a prospect that I feel will lead to big opportunities for the both of us.

Calling my prospects, meetings every day at night, working on my business in the day, and working with my team to do the same.

Freedom as context, freedom as a condition or freedom as an experience are all different and light years ahead of freedom as something to acquire. As children, even as adults perhaps, we have invested our selves emotionally into the acquisition of something with so much intention and attention that people around us either found us amusing or annoying. The sadness is once acquired the ‘thing’ rapidly becomes uninteresting. The pleasure for me is found in the journey not in the destination. That is not to say there is no pleasure in reaching goals but once accomplished if they are not replaced with something one is more interested and passionate about we begin the long dark journey to adulthood, old age and death. All hail to Peter Pan.
There is a parable of the bound man. I have taken on being bound and yet I still resist and chafe at my condition. At some point, may it be soon, I will discover I am able to accomplish everything while bound … No steam or gas ever drives anything until it is confined. No life ever grows until it is focused, dedicated, disciplined. – Harry Fosdick
Okay philosopher, now what are you going to do TODAY to reach Freedom as context, freedom as a condition or freedom as an experience? 🙂
-RG
I am rather enamored with formula. Offer the opportunity to 10 people a day, 5 days a week is a three year plan to $100K/month. 20 a day is the two year plan and the 12 month plan is 30 a day. I am somewhere between the 20 and 30 so far. Something is amiss however and an insight is imminent. I will keep you informed.
I will get this freedom sooner or later.
I still have to spend my time to make more space and freedom in my too educated brain.
Freedom is purity!
Do you need a trainer 😉 I’ve been a fitness professional for 25 years, and now am doing network marketing for my Plan B!
Freedom is what you make of it,taking one day at a time. With my business, I can be as busy as I want or not want to be at any given time.This is what I like about Avon. I am my own boss 24-7 doing with it as I so wish to do. If I want to make a lots of money ,I have to be consistant in working my business as far as recruiting or selling my products. Life is what you make out of it, you can be as busy as you want or you can be as free as you want to.
Reading books, listening to tapes, calling prospects, doing home meetings and hotel presentations. how do I create duplication. The fall out after 15 months is A LOT. How do I find the people that will do what I am willing to do? Make today a great day and thanks for the blog.

I have started on that prosess, I have a meeting noon today and one later in the evening. I will do my best to have 2 meetings a day 🙂
Dear Randy,
Thanks for your effort to clear our vision. My name is Kazi Rashid, living in Bangladesh & going to USA on 4th June. I would really like to attend one of your training session while I’m there. Please lemme know if I can attend it. My email is : kirashid@yahoo.com
I appreciate you.
Kazi
Sorry but I have no generic programs in the US in June.

Pump up the volume! I am creating a sense of urgency, that is exciting me. That excitement is fueling my passion. That passion is creating a re-newed sense of focus. My people are getting fired up because they see me moving forward. I realize that I cannot treat my business like a job. I need to treat it like my baby, giving it all the care I can. It is easier to build my business fast rather than slow….Theres my intention….now let er rip.
Hola Randy, gracias por hacernos pensar.
Es una buena reflexión la que de alguna forma nos obligas a hacer, bueno …
1º Tengo que pensar … Y SI NO LO HAGO YO POR MI¡…. QUIEN LO HARÁ?
2º Si quiero realmente conseguir ser libre en todos los aspectos, debo creerme que LO PUEDO CONSEGUIR
3º Marcar una META u OBJETIVO para Hoy (contactar con 10 personas)
4º Actuar y hacerlo.
Saludos

I have business presentations scheduled this week. I am committed to learing so much more to have the value in me to help others get to their desired levels.
Again great words of wisdom Randy and I think that all of us entering the great world of MLM is that what we looking for. Today I am talking to more people about what I am doing and keep pushing forward
