Good evening everyone! (Audience applause)
(pauses)
Many people do Amway.
Many succeed
Many fail.
According to statistics, a much higher proportion fail.
Strictly speaking most people give up, which means they fail.
Why they fail, I don’t know.
But truth be told many work really hard and really put in a lot of effort,
but in the end, they can’t seem to successfully build this business
which ultimately results in them giving up.
As I said before, why they fail I don’t know.
It could be because they didn’t work hard enough,
not enough support, not enough resources, or not doing it the right way.
All these are likely possibilities.
But success must also have it’s reasons.
Does success need plan?
(audience replies “yes”)
Yes, I think this is very important.
I’ll use an example to demonstrate.
This gentleman (choosing a person in the audience )
yes you wearing glasses, the second last row from the back
May I ask you a question…
From you over there, to me here, what is the shortest distance?
Straight line, right? This is the shortest distance.
But not necessarily the fastest distance right? (audience replies “right”)
Why? (some audience laughs)
Because from you there, to me here,
have a look how many obstacles in front of you,
how many rows of seated people.
So if you wanted to get here fast,
in fact the shortest route isn’t the best or fastest route.
Actually there’s only two people beside you,
you just have to get over them and then
you have a few empty seats before you get to the isle right?
So direction is very important.
We often discuss with new people,
as well as active leaders in the business,
We’re all very interested to research and learn
about how to achieve success quickly.
In fact, the quicker the better, this is the attitude of every Amway Business Owner.
But your plan and direction is very important in order to achieve success.
Allow me to use another example.
I’m not very familiar with Gao Xiong (the city in Taiwan at which this speech was given)
If I wanted to come to you to pay you a visit.
I arrive at the station,
what do you think is the quickest way to get to your place?
(some audiences respond )
Taxi right?
I could choose to rent a car, and buy a map.
Of course, I might get lost and would need to ask many people.
So this isn’t a good method.
Some of you might say that, “oh navigation technology is very easy these days”
But I tell you, sometimes it will still take you around.
I’ll let you know that the best way to get to your house isn’t getting a taxi,
Why? Because taxi’s may be good at getting to restaurants, landmarks,
popular attractions and office buildings,
but not necessarily domestic residences.
Actually the quickest way is to get you to pick me up!
(audience laughs)
because you’re most familiar right?
So there’s a saying that goes like this:
“If you want to become successful,
the smartest, the best, the quickest way,
is to follow in the footsteps of successful people.”
I remember when I started this business, I was very fortunate to meet my upline leader Dr Jerry.
The first two months my business volume was 0.
But after I met Dr Jerry, he shared with me his road to success.
He spent only one year from zero to Emerald.
Once he reached Emerald he went on a month-long holiday to Europe.
Upon his return, not only did his volume not drop but in fact continue to grow!
When I heard this I was very excited, and thought to myself,
if I learned his methods, I could become success very quickly and after achieving success
my volume wouldn’t drop but continue to increase.
I believe this is also the wish of every ABO right?
So I followed Dr Jerry. He was very generous and professional,
he was very attentive and taught me how to journey towards success.
I was also a good student and followed 100%.
So quickly I became successful too.
I spent 8 months and I achieved Platinum,
27 months I achieved Diamond.
His methods was really good because after I achieved Diamond,
I had 6 legs and never have any leg drop.
I find a lot of us, after we achieve 21% sometimes we drop,
and we sometimes achieve 21% for only 6 or 7 months in the year.
Actually I don’t think these are good methods.
If we want to do Amway business, we should be do in such a way that
when we reach 21% we never drop right?
(audience responds “right”)
So I think Dr Jerry’s method is very good, and after using his methods I’ve taught many many people.
Before, I used to teach it in meetings here and there, but never had an opportunity to really organise it.
And after all these years,
already 31 years I’ve been building this business,
I have now consolidated these methods and have helped many people to achieve success.
So today I would like to share these methods with you, who’d that be ok?
(audience applauds and cheers in antipation)
I’ve named this method “天龙八部“ Dragon’s 8 steps to Success (roughly translated)
Some of you may have heard my recordings before,
but today I can assure you, after listening you will have a completely different experience.
Yesterday, after speaking in Taipei, they were very excited
because these methods are very simple but very effective.
