There are tons of articles about using social media as a marketing tool across the internet, but I think this video will give you a more defined idea of what social media can do for your business.
I hope this visual has helped you, but I would advise using other articles about using social media as a marketing tool, as well.
Have you often found yourself having to beg for something, only to realize afterwards that it was never really worth it? The same applies to begging people to join your business or buy your products. You should never have to beg anyone in order to get what you want or you goals accomplished. Enjoy my illustration below. 
Are you so lost in emotion, that you are not careful to plan or think things through? People will occasionally fall into situations where they are too emotionally attached to the wrong things. Getting lost in emotion at the car dealer for that cherry red Mercedes CLK will quickly put you in debt if you purchase it on a Burger King Cashiers’ salary. :-)
We sometimes get in this situation over our jobs or affiliate businesses. Getting lost in emotion can really tear you away from why you started the business or got the job in the first place. Normally, our main goal is too improve in areas so that we can heighten our compensation to feed our families so to speak. In reality and unfortunately, some of us fall victim to getting so lost in emotion, that we lose sight of the initial agenda. If you know for a fact that your current job is moving to another country, or that your current business is slowly but surely going under, why haven’t you planned your next move?
What is your plan “B”, as they say. If you and a friend are crossing the street and you BOTH see a truck coming at top speed…don’t ask the next person to not panic because you think the truck MIGHT stop. If the other person has sense enough to get out of the way and you don’t……that seems to be YOUR issue…not theirs. My point is this……don’t get so caught up in “hype” of things, to where you lose focus of your main goals. Going this route not only affects you, but it can affect your family and friends around you. If things are steadily going in a wrong direction, don’t be a victim to it…….don’t be the one that sits back and wonder “What the HECK just happened?”…because you were too lost in emotion.
Hmmmm! The 1st thing YOU should limit is your unwillingness to dig DEEPER!
1.Limit your television time.
Why do we spend countless hours watching the “Time Violator” (T.V to most)? Use your time wisely by reading uplifting books and stop wasting precious time cheering on others living “Their” dream. It’s sad that we can tell you who are the finalist on American Idol, or who Flavor Flav chose to be his sidekick. Put down the remote and carry out “Your” dreams.
2.Limit your personal circle.
I have a lot of associates/partners that I’ve grown up with and we have been through a lot of things growing up. Even now I have associates/partners that are a great group to hang with, but sometimes we found ourselves hanging around doing…”Nothing”…just hanging. Everyone has that circle of friends that do not have the desire to achieve success. This does not mean to disown your friendships so don’t get me wrong, but learn to separate your “Nothing” time and your “Doing” time. Spend more time on “You” and your business “now”…. so that you can play “later”.
3.Limit your spending.
It’s nice to have the “bling-bling” or the latest shoes. Having a new Coach purse and a pair of shoes every other WEEK is o.k too…to a degree.
Don’t keep spending, spending, spending on things you really don’t need at the time. Put some money away for things like…
A. Marketing Materials
B. Business Overheads
C. Conventions & Business Meeting Costs
D. Etc…Etc…
And don’t treat “credit” as a stepchild or a way to continue getting by either. If something is too expensive for your taste at the time…it’s not worth getting until you just “Got it like that”! Until then, stick to this motto…..
“Lay-away or “No” way!!
Use your money “Wisely”
There is a treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise; but a foolish man spendeth it up. Proverbs 22:20
(Alright…let me get out of there)
4.Limit the negative arena.
Stop hanging in areas of negativity. Don’t allow ourselves to fall for anything that a naysayer may say about your vision like……
A. Negative Chat Rooms & Forums
B. Negative People
C. Negative Television Shows And/Or Literature
D. Etc…Etc…
By you not avoiding these things, it will allow “YOU” to kill your vision a whole lot quicker. It’s what I call a “Mental Genocide”. When you are facing things of such nature, do an “About Face” and RUN!
Who are your 5 closest friends and are you picking up their habits? We must all hang around the people that are focused on goals similar to where we want to be. Enjoy my home made illustration below on choosing your 5 closest friends.
