"It's the money,silly!"
That's the basic reason anyone goes to the trouble of organizing and running any kind of commercial enterprise.Even charitable and non-profit organizations exist to make money to spend on their humanitarian or other efforts.
This begs the question"what am I going to do with the money I make?"
Every MLM or Network Marketing course I've seen has a lot say about determining why you want to be in this business.The reasons always include extra money,a new home,a new automobile,a boat,freedom from financial worries,....or any other material benefit one can imagine.These ideas would seem to drive almost anyone into one of these businesses.They all fit the concept of "It's the money,stupid!",But these beliefs overlook a basic principle of business success.
About 2,000 years ago it was written in Acts 20:35 that Paul told people "to remember the words of the Lord Jesus,how he said,'It is more blessed to give than to receive."A possible meaning of this is that the giver,if the gift is given in the right spirit,will receive more than they gave.
This is a common trait among millionaires:they have a regular program of giving and they teach their children to do this as well.John D.Rockefeller was one of the wealthiest and most powerful men in recent times.He imparted the idea to his children and grandchildren that 10% of their allowance should be given away to repay society for success.
The idea of helping those less fortunate is deeply ingrained in American culture.How significant is evidenced by the fact that Americans gave,in 2003,2.2% of the country's gross national product.That amounted to almost $241 billion.This money enabled non-profit charities to do many things for people needing help..
It is also said that "charity begins at home".A successful home based business can enable you to do just that.Consider how you might use your extra earnings to provide for those you love: - because you can now pay your bills your stress level is decreased
- your mental and physical health improves
- over time your business can provide the means to help your family members start their own businesses or ..other activities.
