Some Quick Fire Notes

Many people ask me how I got so far with Thirty-One and my answer is “I took the time to learn. I read everything I could and listened to everything I could. Something failed miserably and other things allowed my business to take off. NO matter what – I kept trying and kept going.” Here are some quotes from a book I am currently reading called Be A Party Plan Superstar by Mary Christensen. I will try to do this every month.

“You can’t make excuses and progress at the same time”

“As a thousand party plan superstars how they reached the top, and they will all say their success came from being consistent and persistent. Discipline is the essential ingredient in success. There are no shortcuts, magic tricks, or secret formulas. Talking to people in the only was to generate business.”

“Buy a set of ten shiny bangles. Every morning, place the bangles on your left wrist as a promise to yourself that you will make ten calls. Each time you make a call, transfer one to your right wrist until you have transferred every bangle across.”

“Who could ignore this irrestible offer: “Book a party during your birthday month and you get champagne and cake on me!”
