SOCIAL MEDIA Continued From Page 6 on top of their information. Do it! If the information is coming fast and furious, maybe you're not ready for the level that you think you are. Think about it. If you can't read emails from your mentor, then you probably wouldn't be able to keep up with the pace they are on. You're just reading. They're doing the writing. Anyway, why would you want to follow an online mentor if their pace was slower than yours? So, suck it up and get organized. 4. FINALLY AND MOST IMPORTANT, APPRECIATE AND ACKNOWLEDGE YOUR ONLINE COACH. This is THE KEY to your success. I find that most people don't do this and consequently they don't get the results they're looking for or the FAVOR. Most folks are so self-absorbed that they rarely take time to be kind to others. It is great to have focus, but you need a team to make the dream work. And a day of favor is worth more than years of labor - any day! So, want to learn from those on the next level? 1. Listen. Be observant. Be vigilant. 2. Read. Scan. Speed read. Print and save information. 3. Be curious. Click all the buttons! Do what they do. Model them online. 4. Thank the mentor/coach. Let them know you are watching them and you appreciate them. Never hate on your help. Don't be a rival friend. You must learn to get rid of jealous feelings and not be envious. How? By showing gratitude. This is CRITICAL to getting over envy and getting favor! Sounds easy? It is. Do people do these things consistently? Only a rare few who are ready to get in the game and really win!
