Network Marketing Leaders are notorious for saying, Treat your business like a business, not like a hobby." I disagree! Watch the video to see why and then please leave a comment with your thoughts/opinions.

Hi Tracy!
What a great post! You are right on! And I noticed that when I was attending my tennis lessons that that energy followed me back and I was really up for my business.
So I would imagine that your dancing is carrying over into your business day. So, does work feel like dancing? LOL.
Thanks again for the great post!
Linda

Aloha Tracy!
As always, you bring clarity and balance to everything you do. I've heard the business vs. hobby idea for years, and basically bought into the business side of it, which does have value.
This great post allows the missing factor of fun to be reintroduced (noticed that you're covered in beautiful blue...;) which then creates balance and wholeness, and takes our business into a higher realm where we actually enjoy it.
And as you know and demonstrate so well, that's when we become magnetic to people -- they feel us and want to work with us.
I know you're a gardener -- me too. It's one of my hobbies, along with art. What you just shared gives me a whole new perspective for my network marketing business approach.
Thanks so much, again and again and again.
You are a blessing to me, and this industry.
Peace, love, abundance, fun, and more love.
Your student and friend,
Craig Joseph

Dear Linda & Craig,
I am so glad this video got your wheels turning! Our hobbies or art forms can be a metaphor for how we treat our businesses; we can blend in that love and passion every day as we nuture ourselves and others through business. We do not have to separate ourselves from our work. Our work becomes who we are, not just what we do.
Love you both!
:-) Power Gal

I have not been working as I should. Part of it is fear, the other part is being unbalanced. I need to work 8 hours a day right now, but I have nothing fun planned for the hours I am not working..it is all service...serving customers, sales reps, family needs, and nothing for myself. I will work to find a hobby I can go do so I can enjoy being with people without everything being about business or caretaking the elderly. Thank you for your video!!!

Dear Angela,
I am glad my video has inspired you to take care of yourself and find more joy in your life! It's like what they say on an airplane: position your own oxygen mask first before attempting to help anyone else. If you can't breathe and are turning blue, what good are you to others? ;-)
