Hello everyone, I have been stalking these threads for quite some time. Yes I'm a Bot. After reading your threads though I'm wondering if I am doing the right thing. Some bits of the business are getting to me recently and I'm wondering if maybe you guys are actually talking sense. I'm so confused

Patzy85 · 24/04/2016 18:55

Welcome confusedbot, what parts of the business are getting to you?

confusedbot · 24/04/2016 18:59

I'm struggling to recruit. I'm at quite a high level but a lot of my team have quit / slowed down and therefore I have been putting money in to buy the minimum i need each month in order to get paid my team leading bonus. I am thinking of stopping but I'm afraid. I'm afraid I'll regret it in the future

notyourfanboy · 24/04/2016 19:05

Lol - sorry I have seen it all now! The depth of despair in order to keep a fading thread going have reached a new low......

Melaw21 · 24/04/2016 19:06

Welcome confusedbot It sounds like the law of attraction mindset training you will have undoubtedly had is rallying against your natural instinct and common sense/worries. Thats what its designed to do xxx I hope we can help, what support are your upline giving you?

Patzy85 · 24/04/2016 19:07

I think it is a choice that only you can make, but it must be difficult and disheartening when you see the select few at the top who make it look relatively easy. I personally know a few people who have left in the last 6 months for the essentially the same reasons, one was at manager level.

Melaw21 · 24/04/2016 19:07

not thought you were busy in joburg? 🙄

Patzy85 · 24/04/2016 19:08

Melaw - he was never there! #smokeandmirrors

Melaw21 · 24/04/2016 19:10

No patzy really? Have I been duped? 😱
😂😂 Not I am very dissapointed in you, you fibby fibber #hun you!

Twunk · 24/04/2016 19:11

He's fantasising planning how he's going to spend his imaginary $15k

stopfaffing · 24/04/2016 19:12

Hey not you think this is bad, you should see the other 18 threads Grin. We've got poetry, lyrics, memes aplenty. If you've got a few hours spare while you're in Joburg, have a look at our previous threads...

Melaw21 · 24/04/2016 19:12

Awww twunk bless him!

confusedbot · 24/04/2016 19:13

I am at manager level. My upline is a nice person, I like her but I wouldn't speak to her about leaving.

not if you are referring to my post you are mistaken I really am a manager in Forever. You clearly aren't at GR as you wouldn't be posting here. My sponsor was there and is on the flight home now as i type - when are you going home? Also she had no wifi outside the hotel so I would be surprised if you were using data roaming to follow this thread!

Patzy85 · 24/04/2016 19:13

Melaw - He's currently on a yacht in the Caribbean, spending his >$15,000.

Patzy85 · 24/04/2016 19:15

How long have you been in FL confused? One great thing in your situation is that you have a good upline who will hopefully be understanding no matter what you chose.

Kanga59 · 24/04/2016 19:15

PMSL at the golf analogy. Yes exactly, that's what we are saying! Only the top minority get the reward. Not every Tom, Dick and Harry who has ever played a back 9. You have cemented my belief that all bots are stupid.

Twunk · 24/04/2016 19:15

Confusedbot
Work out how much money you have actually made. Not the amounts going into your bank, but work out the amounts going out too. Coffees, products, petrol, training days, fares, postage, personal use. Think about living a life free of all the bullshit. Think about what you could do with that time. Think about the real friendships you have neglected and think about the people you have conned.

Be free!

Melaw21 · 24/04/2016 19:16

This is almost like that #bot, who was #notabot, that turned out #tobeabot just #notabotanymore not I hope you have not been telling any other porkie pies! Not in the spirit of the teamies is it?

confusedbot · 24/04/2016 19:19

I have been in FL almost 2 years now. I know a lot of struggling managers at the minute. We would speak privately to each other about our struggles.

I don't feel bullied to stay or anything but I would fear that I am letting the few in my down line down by leaving and also what I would do with myself to earn money...what the future will hold for me. I don't want / can't return to FT work as I don't want to leave my DC's

Melaw21 · 24/04/2016 19:19

confused that is very good advice from twunk be brutally honest about your costs, and the ability for you to maintain or improve on a level that you are clearly already struggling with, How long have you been an fbo? Xx

Twunk · 24/04/2016 19:21

I've thought about this a bit and because you're encouraged to think you're in control of your hours, that it's just "being sociable", that you work with "Forever friends" that it encourages you to not consider just how many hours of work you are doing for the measly rewards.

If I worked 40 hours a week and got £500 a month for it, not only would it be illegal, but I would be mighty pissed off.

And people seem to have an up line who can be rather like a boss, in fact worse because they aren't controlled by the law.

Melaw21 · 24/04/2016 19:23

Its not an easy decision for you to make, but if you are not making any/much money after working out your true costs, then you really need to decide if carrying on is the right thing for you and your family Will your downline not just move to your uplines team anyway? How many hours on average have you been working your business?

notyourfanboy · 24/04/2016 19:24

Chilling thanks - In between courses so catching up with a laughable statement from someone supposedly high-up wanting to give up an income they must have worked hard to achieve - sounds like this person is not getting the concept of MLM me thinks?

i.e - a plant - certainly not Aloe...

I don't know who confused is but I am taking her at face value.

If you have concerns she's not who she says she is then report it to MNHQ. They don't like troll-hunting on threads.

Patzy85 · 24/04/2016 19:28

Oh well, that picture proves it. Hopefully he will show us his cheque next Blush
