Compelling Vision-October Contest

I would like to thank Ami Beery and Cheryl Strausser who were the only 2 that submitted their compelling Thirty-One vision to me for our contest. You ALL should have one either in the works or in your thoughts, but it is much better when it is written down and shared with others.  CONGRATULATIONS to Ami as she is the winner of the $5.00 Target gift card.Below are Ami and Cheryl's compelling visions:
Ami:
"My vision is to stay home and be there for my children.  The visual is PTA President, picking up Noah in the car line and Adventure Island in the summer.  Being able to get kids to soccer practice and be home when they are sick.
Cheryl:
"The reason I am doing Thirty-One is the get my independence back, to pay off some bills and meet new and exciting people at the same time"
Mine:
"To be able to stay home with my children and spend more time with them, to never have to return to punching an 8a-6p clock.  I would like to also provide additional income to support my family and eventually be able to buy my husband a new car as well as retire him so he does not have to punch a clock either.

Creating your Compelling Vision (your "Why")-Contest

For many of us, including myself, we have a vision of where we want our Thirty-One business to take us but if we don't write it down or have a picture of that vision we most likely will not reach that goal.  I challenge each of you to create your Compelling Vision whether it be to earn our Dream Incentives trip to Disney or the Cruise option or even to buy a new car, etc.  Cut out photos of your goal, make a goal chart on how long it will take you to reach the goal but it needs to be a visual and it must be kept in a place or in places that you will see it every day and know "Why" you are working your Thirty-One business.  I will share one of my compelling visions at our October team meeting and then post it after.  Anyone that takes on this challenge will need to email me their compelling vision for doing Thirty-One and also share what their visual is.  You can write it or even email me a photo. Everyone that shares it with my by Monday, Oct. 13th will be entered into a drawing for a $5.00  Target Gift Card!! I can't wait to hear all the wonderful reasons why each of you have joined Thirty-One.

Training:
1. "Click Clack Moo" Book on building a Team-Set goals for you personally as well as your team.  The farm animals in this cute children's  book shows how they had a goal and were determined to get the farmer to give into their demands.  
2.  We used playdough to form something that would represent our reasons for wanting to "make more dough" this fall.  Jen Alfieri made a diploma to pay off school loans along with a plane to be able to travel and visit family, Monica Medina made a crib and baby for her new little one who is on the way.  Everyone did a great job!!!
3. Set a Recruiting Goal for yourself through the end of the year. Do you want to recruit 1, 2, 3 etc. women each month?
4. Activity- List as many traits as you can of those you would like to be in women you bring into Thirty-One and on your team. Are you looking for someone you can trust, someone funny, organized, a good leader, etc?  Rank those traits for the top 10 and then as you are speaking with women think about whether they meet those ideal traits.  
5. Our Consultant Challenge was announced. From 9/15-10/15 any consultant who recruits a new consultant will have their name entered into a drawing for $31 in Thirty-One Merchandise of your choice. The more women you recruit the more chances you get into the drawing!
6. Our next local team meeting is Saturday, October 11th at 1pm. Location to be announced.
