Help! I Lost My Job!

When one thing ends, another begins.

Your last employment has ended.  What will you now cause to begin?

Perhaps, instead of a negative event, this is the opportunity you have been waiting for.  Is now the time to take control of your life financially?  Be your own boss?

Many people find the path to doing just that through Network Marketing (MLM).  And, that may very well be your ticket.

However, do not even think of attempting this path until you have read Magnetic Sponsoring by Mike Dillard!

I purchased the book myself and, wow, is he ever a straight shooter.

Magnetic Sponsoring will tell you right now if you have what it takes to make it in Network Marketing.  And, if you do, it sets out in plain language exactly what you need to do.

The course delves into marketing psychology and explains what it takes to build a network marketing organization of your very own.  The methods show you how to become the hunted instead of the hunter and magnetically attract people to your organization.

Really, the manual goes way beyond just MLM.  It is a blueprint for success in any endeavor you want to undertake, hitting right at the heart of who you are as a person, and what it takes to be a success in whatever.

Proverbs 24:10 — “Have you shown yourself discouraged in the day of distress? Your power will be scanty.”

Discouragement is, hands down, archenemy number one!

Yet, it is so easy to fall into. Time goes on, you put in resumes, you knock on doors and nothing seems to gel. How easy to get discouraged.

Fight it! At all costs.

Why? Because, as the scripture from Proverbs points out, discouragement always results in loss of power. And, that is the last thing you need right now. To loose your power, your energy, your focus, your vitality, your creativity.

Discouragement wipes it all out, leaving you frozen and paralyzed.

“But, discouragement is something that just happens. It isn’t my fault if I get discouraged. It is the discouraging situation. I can’t help it.”

Ah, but there is the beauty in that verse. It IS under your control. Let me explain…

The Hebrew word rendered ‘shown yourself discouraged’ in the verse above is raphah. In various English translations, raphah at Prov. 24:10 is rendered as falter, faint, slack, fail, lose hope, become weary and lose courage, among others.

Per the Hebrew Lexicon, the basic meaning of raphah is to sink, relax, sink down, let drop, be disheartened, abandon, refrain, forsake.

It is basically the antonym of to take courage and in other instances is rendered letting ones hands drop down, meaning “lose courage, become too weak to act.”

The point of note here is that fundamentally it refers not to something that happens to you beyond your control, but is something that you let happen.  You let your hands drop down.  You lose your courage.  You allow yourself to become disheartened.  You abandon, refrain and forsake—all actions on your part.

So, really, to transliterate, Prov. 24:10 could be read as: “If you allow yourself to become discouraged, you will lose your power, your courage and your ability to act.”

Thus, it really is an admonishment:  “Don’t let yourself become discouraged.  You are in control.  You are not a victim of your thoughts.  Fight and maintain courage.  Don’t let your hands drop.”
