GBG|Christian Homebased Business|Advice: Don't Speak Unless You Have Something to Say

Having a Christian homebased business allows me to make my own choices in life without the fear and limitations of having someone else determine my future. The main reason for me to work from home is one word -- flexibility. I realize my ultimate success is determined by me. There are no excuses for not achieving success with my company, GBG, other than lack of focus or being afraid of my own success. For awhile now, I haven't posted on my blog. I've been in transition and moving to another location in the city. My transition was not an easy choice, but a necessary choice. Most of the time, when we look at our life--we realize it is a total of the choices of the choices we have made.

In my twenties, I remember a conversation I was having with a person from a different country. His way of relating to me was different than most. His attitudes were different and his values were different. I tried my best to get him to open up by talk....talk....talking. One day as we were walking and I was talking, he turned to me and said, "don't speak unless you have something to say." It caught me off guard, but I have often thought of that from time to time. Sometimes we talk so much about nothing that when we do have something we really want to relate, nobody listens or the meaning is not as impactful as it could be had we not talked all the time.

I think with the age of Social Media in full swing and our friends (both new and old) as close as a Facebook message, our interaction is often too much. We might have to do as my friend said, "do not speak unless you have something to say."

In my next few posts, I will be explaining to you part of the reason I continue to choose network marketing as my vehicle for my Plan B.
