A Responsibility to Share

Last week I had a visit from my friend Lloyd. He’s from Nigeria but has lived here in Denmark a long time. We talked about a lot of things, and at a point, he said something that made me stop and think.

 “In my country we believe that if we find something that improves our life; a medicine, a product etc., we have a responsibility to share it with others…it’s something we live by”!

I thought about my old friend George, who came to me almost ten years ago to share something with me that had improved his health and his life.

He urged me to try USANA, science based nutritional supplements. I was resistant at first. You know how it is, right? I had taken lots of vitamins before but never noticed any difference. But George was very persistent, passionate really and he said “just try them for two or three months and let your body tell you what you need to know”. So I said, “why not? …he’s a close and trusted friend and I have certainly spent money on worse things in my life than vitamins. I’m on my way back to Scandinavia for two months. I’ll help George out and give USANA a try while I’m on tour”.

I was surprised to find, that very soon my health was improving. I actually felt better and my body did tell me what I needed to know. I sent George an email and told him “Geez, these things are working. I didn’t know I was feeling bad until I started feeling better”!

And that’s the deal. They work, I can feel them working, and that is the difference, simple as that. I’ve been taking them ever since and I’ll take them the rest of my life.

I made another realization along the way. I thought I was helping my friend, but in fact, it was he who was helping me! Thanks George!

So now it’s my turn to fulfill my responsibility and share USANA with you.  l make the same recommendation that was made to me. “Try them for two or three months and let your body tell you what you need to know”.

Just click on the word USANA which is a link to my new USANA website. Watch the short video about Dr. Myron Wentz, the scientist behind USANA, and see what inspires him to do everything in his power to make a difference in the world. Then, take a look around the rest of the site for more information.

Whenever you decide to try the nutritionals, you can just click on “The Essentials” or “Health Pack” in the boxes to the right of the video. These are links to where you can order direct. And/or, if you are interested in learning more, as well as how to save up to 25%, just click on the “Contact Me” tab, fill in and submit the form. I will be notified that you have done so and I’ll be in touch to help you get started.

Active Listening

The first years of my working career, I was in the clothing business. One of the stores I worked in had five salesmen, of which I was the youngest. Within the first year I was selling 1/2 the store. How did I do it? Simple... I didn't sell! I listened to the customer, got to know him a bit, found out what he was interested in, in need of, or looking for, and helped him the best I could by providing choices, information and ideas for alternatives he may not have considered. I only offered my opinion when asked or I deemed appropriate in order to help him in his decision process and best serve his needs.

Active listening is the key to success in almost everything; relationships, business, life. Active listening is one of the best and most important ways by which we can determine the nature of, as well as the potential of the relationships we develop, whether they be personal or professional and thus truly be of service, not only to others but to ourselves as well.

I enjoy sharing and recommending to others those things which have improved my life, and although I might urge someone strongly to try something I believe in, like USANA nutritionals, it is still, ultimately, their decision. One must respect that. Offering the USANA Business Opportunity is perhaps when being an active listener is most important because, I for one, am not interested in just selling a USANA Business Package. I'm interested in helping my new business partners decide on the best USANA Business Package, tools and resources they need to help ensure their success as a USANA Associate and develop a healthy, lifelong partnership/relationship.
