Terms of you building a large group
This is the next installment in our series of seven things that
will make a difference in terms of you building a large group.
These are what top leaders do to build a massive network.
(Sometimes consciously, sometimes instinctively.) The most
successful ones use all of them.
These seven things aren't really skills. Some are habits. Some
are mindset. And some are techniques. But they all are things
that you must use effectively to build a large business.
So let's look at number seven. And this one may surprise you.
SACRIFICE
After all, that's certainly not sexy to tell a prospect. And we
recruit all the time on money, lifestyle, and luxury. And you
know what? Network Marketing offers all those things. But not to
start.
To begin, and build something big - you're going to have to
sacrifice stuff.
You and everyone you bring into the biz are already using all 24
hours of every day. Using them doing certain things. In certain
ways. In ways that most likely keep you in your comfort zone.
You know from last week's lesson that you need at least 10 to 15
hours a week to do the business. That means you'll have to
sacrifice whatever you are now doing during that time.
Now that doesn't have to be forever. But it does have to be at
the start. I'm reading the new bestseller "The Four Hour Work
Week" by Timothy Ferriss right now. A lot of fun to read, and
some great stuff in there. But it's going to be dangerous for a
lot of people because they won't use discernment and critical
thinking.
It sounds great that he takes six months off to become a Chinese
kickboxing champion or spend a year learning to tango in Buenos
Aires. But he built up a cash flow business FIRST, before he
started his life of unending adventures.
I'm the #1 bonus check in my company and I have the kind of life
Timothy talks about in the book. I have great residual income. A
large chunk of it is passive income, and I can plan my whole
schedule around my softball teams.
And the truth is, I still sacrifice. Not because I need to -
because I choose to. Because I want to build my passive income
even higher.
My sponsor sees every blockbuster movie as soon as they come
out. He has a TiVo and watches at least five or six TV shows
regularly. I miss most of those or catch them on plane rides a
couple months later. My top leaders take more spa days than me.
Do a bunch of cruises, and take more vacations than I do.
I could do those things too and would get some enjoyment from
them. But I would rather sacrifice now, to get myself in a
better position for the future.
Don't get me wrong...
I do the stuff that brings me great joy. I'll go to the midnight
preview of a "Star Wars" or "Matrix" movie. I'll do the same
thing when a new Harry Potter book comes out and stay up all
night reading it. (Which you may have figured out I did
yesterday.) I have no compunction about turning down a $50,000
speech because it conflicts with softball playoffs. When it's
something I'm am really excited about, I'll do it. But I'm able
to do that because of previous sacrifices.
I missed some days at church when I started building my
business. Now on some Sundays my tithe check equals the other
799 people combined.
I drove long hours in a broke-mobile, working with long distance
lines when I started out. Now I travel in private jets or first
class.
My mantra was, "I will do today what others will not, so later I
can do what others cannot." And you know what? It worked.
So how about you?
Are you making the sacrifices today that will bring you true
freedom tomorrow? Or are you living in the moment of instant
gratification - which will actually keep you a grinder forever?
Give this some serious thought. And evaluate yourself in all
seven of the things we discussed in the series. Once again, they
are:
1) POSTURE
2) IMAGE
3) EVENTS
4) PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT
5) CONSISTENCY
6) COMMITMENT
7) SACRIFICE
How many of these things do you use well? Remember that the top
people in the biz use all seven. Give yourself an honest
appraisal, and then you'll know where to build from there.
Have a great week!

OVERVIEW
Americans tend to be relatively inactive and lazy bastards. In 2002, 25 percent of adult Americans did not participate in any leisure time physical activities in the past month,9 and in 2003, 38 percent of students in grades 9 to 12 viewed television 3 or more hours per day.10 Regular physical activity and physical fitness make important contributions to one's health, sense of well-being, and maintenance of a healthy body weight. Physical activity is defined as any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles resulting in energy expenditure
(http://www.cdc.gov/nccdphp/dnpa/physical/terms/index.htm). In contrast, physical fitness is a multi-component trait related to the ability to perform physical activity. Maintenance of good physical fitness enables one to meet the physical demands of work and leisure comfortably. People with higher levels of physical fitness are also at lower risk of developing chronic disease. Conversely, a sedentary lifestyle increases risk for overweight and obesity and many chronic diseases, including coronary artery disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, osteoporosis, and certain types of cancer. Overall, mortality rates from all causes of death are lower in physically active people than in sedentary people. Also, physical activity can aid in managing mild to moderate depression and anxiety.
KEY RECOMMENDATIONS
Engage in regular physical activity and reduce sedentary activities to promote health, psychological well-being, and a healthy body weight.
To reduce the risk of chronic disease in adulthood: Engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity, above usual activity, at work or home on most days of the week.
For most people, greater health benefits can be obtained by engaging in physical activity of more vigorous intensity or longer duration.
To help manage body weight and prevent gradual, unhealthy body weight gain in adulthood: Engage in approximately 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity activity on most days of the week while not exceeding caloric intake requirements.
To sustain weight loss in adulthood: Participate in at least 60 to 90 minutes of daily moderate-intensity physical activity while not exceeding caloric intake requirements. Some people may need to consult with a healthcare provider before participating in this level of activity.
Achieve physical fitness by including cardiovascular conditioning, stretching exercises for flexibility, and resistance exercises or calisthenics for muscle strength and endurance.
Key Recommendations for Specific Population Groups
Pregnant women.
In the absence of medical or obstetric complications, incorporate 30 minutes or more of moderate-intensity physical activity on most, if not all, days of the week. Avoid activities with a high risk of falling or abdominal trauma.
Breastfeeding women.
Be aware that neither acute nor regular exercise adversely affects the mother's ability to successfully breastfeed.
Older adults.
Participate in regular physical activity to reduce functional declines associated with aging and to achieve the other benefits of physical activity identified for all adults.
DISCUSSION
Regular physical activity has been shown to reduce the risk of certain chronic diseases, including high blood pressure, stroke, coronary artery disease, type 2 diabetes, colon cancer and osteoporosis. Therefore, to reduce the risk of chronic disease, it is recommended that adults engage in at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity on most, preferably all, days of the week. For most people, greater health benefits can be obtained by engaging in physical activity of more vigorous intensity or of longer duration. In addition, physical activity appears to promote psychological well-being and reduce feelings of mild to moderate depression and anxiety.
Regular physical activity is also a key factor in achieving and maintaining a healthy body weight for adults and children. To prevent the gradual accumulation of excess weight in adulthood, up to 30 additional minutes per day may be required over the 30 minutes for reduction of chronic disease risk and other health benefits. That is, approximately 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity on most days of the week may be needed to prevent unhealthy weight gain (see table 4 for some examples of moderate- and vigorous-intensity physical activities). While moderate-intensity physical activity can achieve the desired goal, vigorous-intensity physical activity generally provides more benefits than moderate-intensity physical activity. Control of caloric intake is also advisable. However, to sustain weight loss for previously overweight/obese people, about 60 to 90 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per day is recommended.
Most adults do not need to see their healthcare provider before starting a moderate-intensity physical activity program. However, men older than 40 years and women older than 50 years who plan a vigorous program or who have either chronic disease or risk factors for chronic disease should consult their physician to design a safe, effective program. It is also important during leisure time to limit sedentary behaviors, such as television watching and video viewing, and replace them with activities requiring more movement. Reducing these sedentary activities appears to be helpful in treating and preventing overweight among children and adolescents.
Different intensities and types of exercise confer different benefits. Vigorous physical activity (e.g., jogging or other aerobic exercise) provides greater benefits for physical fitness than does moderate physical activity and burns more calories per unit of time. Resistance exercise (such as weight training, using weight machines, and resistance band workouts) increases muscular strength and endurance and maintains or increases muscle mass. These benefits are seen in adolescents, adults, and older adults who perform resistance exercises on 2 or more days per week. Also, weight-bearing exercise has the potential to reduce the risk of osteoporosis by increasing peak bone mass during growth, maintaining peak bone mass during adulthood, and reducing the rate of bone loss during aging. In addition, regular exercise can help prevent falls, which is of particular importance for older adults.
The barrier often given for a failure to be physically active is lack of time. Setting aside 30 to 60 consecutive minutes each day for planned exercise is one way to obtain physical activity, but it is not the only way. Physical activity may include short bouts (e.g., 10-minute bouts) of moderate-intensity activity. The accumulated total is what is important—both for health and for burning calories. Physical activity can be accumulated through three to six 10-minute bouts over the course of a day.
Elevating the level of daily physical activity may also provide indirect nutritional benefits. A sedentary lifestyle limits the number of calories that can be consumed without gaining weight. The higher a person's physical activity level, the higher his or her energy requirement and the easier it is to plan a daily food intake pattern that meets recommended nutrient requirements.
Proper hydration is important when participating in physical activity. Two steps that help avoid dehydration during prolonged physical activity or when it is hot include: (1) consuming fluid regularly during the activity and (2) drinking several glasses of water or other fluid after the physical activity is completed (see chs. 2 and 8).

It is also important during leisure time to limit sedentary behaviors, such as television watching and video viewing, and replace them with activities requiring more movement. Reducing these sedentary activities appears to be helpful in treating and preventing overweight among children and adolescents.
Different intensities and types of exercise confer different benefits. Vigorous physical activity (e.g., jogging or other aerobic exercise) provides greater benefits for physical fitness than does moderate physical activity and burns more calories per unit of time. Resistance exercise (such as weight training, using weight machines, and resistance band workouts) increases muscular strength and endurance and maintains or increases muscle mass. These benefits are seen in adolescents, adults, and older adults who perform resistance exercises on 2 or more days per week. Also, weight-bearing exercise has the potential to reduce the risk of osteoporosis by increasing peak bone mass during growth, maintaining peak bone mass during adulthood, and reducing the rate of bone loss during aging. In addition, regular exercise can help prevent falls, which is of particular importance for older adults.
The barrier often given for a failure to be physically active is lack of time. Setting aside 30 to 60 consecutive minutes each day for planned exercise is one way to obtain physical activity, but it is not the only way. Physical activity may include short bouts (e.g., 10-minute bouts) of moderate-intensity activity. The accumulated total is what is important—both for health and for burning calories. Physical activity can be accumulated through three to six 10-minute bouts over the course of a day.
Elevating the level of daily physical activity may also provide indirect nutritional benefits. A sedentary lifestyle limits the number of calories that can be consumed without gaining weight. The higher a person's physical activity level, the higher his or her energy requirement and the easier it is to plan a daily food intake pattern that meets recommended nutrient requirements.
Proper hydration is important when participating in physical activity. Two steps that help avoid dehydration during prolonged physical activity or when it is hot include: (1) consuming fluid regularly during the activity and (2) drinking several glasses of water or other fluid after the physical activity is completed (see chs. 2 and 8).

Infant and Toddler Nutrition
Infant and Toddler Nutrition
Food provides the energy and nutrients a baby or toddler needs to be healthy. For a baby, breast milk has all the necessary vitamins and minerals. Infant formulas imitate breast milk. For children younger than 2, up to 50 percent of calories should come from fat. Whole milk is a good source of fat after age 1. You can switch to low-fat milk after age 2 or 3.
Some other things to watch for:
Make sure your child gets enough iron
Toddlers between 1 and 3 need 500 milligrams of calcium each day
Dietary fiber is important after age 3 because it might prevent diseases later on
Don't feed your baby eggs, citrus fruits and juices, cow's milk or honey until after his or her first birthday
Don't feed your child seafood, peanuts or tree nuts before age 2 or 3

Green Tea: A Team Player
By Bill Sardi
Antioxidants, the antirusting agents of biological systems, not only protect living tissues but also protect each other. For example, vitamin A protects vitamin C from oxidation, and vitamin C protects vitamin E. Researchers have learned that green tea's antioxidant components protect vitamin E and beta-carotene from oxidation. In fact, green tea's antioxidants do not begin to oxidize until vitamin C is completely depleted from human blood plasma. Researchers continue to find that an array of antioxidants works better than any single nutrient.

A hearty dose of garlic?
Scientists in the US have discovered why eating garlic is good for the heart: it boosts your natural supply of hydrogen sulphide (H2S), relaxing blood vessels and increasing blood flow around the body. The team found that red blood cells in the body break down sulphur-containing compounds in garlic and convert them into H2S.1
Garlic is one of the oldest natural remedies, having been recommended by physicians for more than 5000 years. It is a natural antibiotic and has a range of potential uses, from reducing cholesterol to fighting cancer. But despite a wealth of historical evidence, medical trials with garlic supplements have had mixed results.
One reason for this is that garlic can have different effects depending on how it is prepared. Intact garlic bulbs contain no strong smelling compounds and have almost no physiological activity. This is why garlic should be crushed to release its beneficial effects, rather than simply cut up or cooked whole. Crushing garlic allows plant enzymes to react and produce a variety of sulphur compounds, including organic polysulphides such as diallyl disulphide and diallyl trisulphide. These compounds are responsible for 'garlic breath' but also for the bulb's healing properties.
The team, based at the University of Alabama, added small amounts of freshly-crushed garlic to human red blood cells and found they began releasing H2S. 'Key to our work was the use of a novel measuring method - we invented a sulphide sensor capable of measuring sulphide levels in solution in real time,' David Kraus, who worked on the project, told Chemistry World.
"Key to our work was the use of a novel measuring method - we invented a sulphide sensor capable of measuring sulphide levels in solution in real time"- David Kraus
Although toxic in high levels, H2S is an important signalling molecule in the body and acts as a vasodilator, opening blood vessels. 'Very recently, H2S has also been shown to help prevent the severe damage that occurs in heart attacks,' Kraus added.2
The researchers hope the work will lead to a way of standardising garlic supplements by measuring the amount of H2S they produce. Understanding the mechanisms behind this process could also lead to new treatments for heart conditions, they say.
Commenting on the findings, Harold Seifried, a nutritional chemist at the National Institute of Health, Maryland, told Chemistry World: 'Garlic certainly may have some usefulness for future drug discovery as more is known about the molecular targets and mechanisms of action.'

4-Star Diamond Director Tim Lewis shares a message
Join us in Akron, Ohio Friday, November 2 and Saturday, November 3 for the 2nd annual Children’s Hunger Fund charity ball. In addition, we’ve planned a special Diamond University to take place before the ball. Not only will you be raising money for a great cause but you’ll also have an opportunity to train with the Diamonds!
Log on to USANAtoday, Event Registration, located under the “Contests & Events” tab and sign up for the Diamond U with item #854 or register for a Diamond U/charity ball combo ticket with item #855. You can also register by calling Order Express at 1-888-950-9595. For more information on this event, check out Associate Events located on USANAtoday.
FAQs
Q. Where is Akron, Ohio anyway??
A. Good question! Akron is 30 minutes south of Cleveland, two hours north of Columbus, three to four hours west of western New York, five hours east of Chicago, 10 hours east of Kansas City, or a short plane ride from anywhere! So come on, get here!
Q. I am new. What is a Diamond U?
A. A Diamond U is a rare opportunity to learn from the Diamonds on how to become a Diamond. Think of it as an amplified Super Saturday! The lineup is truly exciting. 4-Star Diamond Director Tim Lewis, 5-Star Diamond Director Lynn Allen-Johnson, and 2-Star Diamond Directors Dr. Paige and Daniel Hunter are all speaking! Also, hear from Diamond Director Steve Swartz who will be sharing how he built his business entirely using the Internet. Then, to top it all off, we will be donning our best and going to the 2nd Annual Children's Hunger Fund Charity Ball.
Q. The CHF Charity Ball sounds like fun, but how formal is formal attire?
A. Suit and tie are fine. Wear a tux if you have one, and if you want to. If you show up in blue jeans, you will probably feel a bit uncomfortable. But, don’t let the attire stop you from coming. You won’t want to miss out on the fun.
In addition to fun, live entertainment, we will be auctioning off some really cool things this year. Goodyear has donated a ride for two on the Goodyear Blimp. Also, Tim Sales is donating one hour of free consulting services for two people. Tim Sales’ consulting services are highly valued. In addition, the merchants who donated last year are doubling their contributions so we will have hundreds of great items to auction and raffle off.
Q. I want to come to the Diamond U and the Ball, but how do I purchase a ticket for just the ball for a guest?
A. Go to www.chfcharityball.com. You can register and purchase a ticket for the ball alone there.
Q. I can’t come this year, but I wish to donate to the cause. How do I do that?
A. Go to www.chfcharityball.com and click on the donation page link. Thank you!
