Start right where you are--build the image of what you want and then act as if you have already recieved it. "Act like the person you want to become, for before you can do something, you first must be something."
Goethe

If You Do Not Ask, The Answer Is Always No!

It has been said that the foundation of success and happiness in any area of life is based upon your relationships with other people. No matter what your business or career is, you can’t do it alone. The more success you have, the more likely it is that you will have other people on your team. The key to succeeding in Nikken is in having good relationships with others. You must believe in the goodness of people. Care about them and their families. When purpose and love work together, your business will EXPLODE!

I will greet this day with love in my heart. For this is the greatest secret of success in all ventures. Only love can open the hearts of men, and until I master this art I will remain no more than a peddler in the market place. And how will I confront each whom I meet? In only one way. In silence and to myself I will address him and say I Love You. Though spoken in silence, these words will shine in my eyes, unwrinkle my brow, bring a smile to my lips, and an echo in my voice; and his heart will be opened. And who will say nay when his heart feels my love? If I have no other qualities I can succeed with love alone. Without it I will fail though I possess all the knowledge and skills of the world. From Og Mandino -Scroll III ("—and have not charity, I am nothing!")

Many years ago a study was done for a life insurance company that profiled their top sales leaders. The purpose was to create a model which they would then teach to others so they could become better sales people. They were surprised to find all sorts of differences between the sales leaders. They did find two vital keys to their success: The top producers had a great love for people and they had an almost fanatical belief in life insurance. This is the key to building your business: LOVE and a BELIEF in what you are doing!

I love Nikken because it enables someone to REALLY MAKE A DIFFERENCE in the lives of others. Because of you, someone may have a dramatic health benefit. You may see others grow and develop personally. You may see many of the people you touch move into new homes, drive new cars, and do fun things with their kids as they gain financial independence through their Nikken business. It's a wonderful feeling just to wake up in the morning and have hope and a sense of purpose and direction, and to share this wonderful vision with others. The world will become better because of you! I even believe that the people who for some reason quit Nikken are still better people because of the experience. Think about these things all the time. You really must have an unshakable belief in Nikken. This includes the products, the company, and the network marketing method. People really do need what Nikken can offer them! For things to get better, you must get better! IF YOU POSSESS A WINNING ATTITUDE AND LEARN TO MAKE IT WORK FOR YOU IN YOUR BUSINESS, You’ll WIN! See yourself the way you want to be. It is only a matter of time before you will have a large organization. What you see, you become. "Always bear in mind that your own resolution to succeed is more important than any other one thing." —Abraham Lincoln
One of the most important fundamentals that should be mastered is approaching people. Get really good at just meeting people while you’re out and about during your day. Practice asking people about themselves, and get comfortable with that first. To succeed, talk to the right people and talk to enough of them. People can tell when you are really interested in them and care about them. Make it your goal to make lots of friends. When you love people, they will love you back. Many will join your business just so they can be associated with you! Act excited. Look like you are having fun. Let people know that big things are happening and that you are going places. Create an air of expectancy. You are the message!

Concerning all acts of initiative and creation. There is one elementary truth - that the moment one DEFINITELY COMMITS ONESELF then Divine Providence moves too! All sorts of things occur to help one that would never otherwise have occurred and which no man could have dreamed would have come their way. —Goethe

If you are truly committed to a righteous desire, you may call upon the greatest power there is - Your daily prayers should include your business associates and prospects, and future prospects—THIS WORKS! Ask if you might be led to people who could benefit from Nikken. Ask that if this business or the products will help the person that you are going to see, that you might say and do the right things to help them make the best decision.

Nikken is most effectively built through your warm market. This simply means to first contact the people whom you already know. When you call up a friend and invite them to come over for dinner or to plan a picnic together, you probably don’t get out a written script and read a dialog to them. They would really wonder what was going on! Think about inviting your friends to look at Nikken in the same way. If you have found something that is good and you are excited about it— of course you will tell your friends about it.
