Well I’ve just come back from 3 weeks in the sun and had an amazing time. I figured August is traditionally a slow month in the business so if I’m going to take some family time out then this is as good a time as any.

Still, I was left with the dilemma of how do I support my existing team members and how do I keep the momentum of prospecting whilst I am swimming with dolphins in Eilat, and attending barbeques almost every evening!!

I’m sure this is something that most up and coming leaders are concerned with at some point or another. In our company we have a motto, ‘DO LIFE,’ well I decided to put it to the test. Can I go on a long holiday when my business has only the tender stages of leadership in place in my organisation? Passive income after all is defined by having levels of leaders trained in one’s organisation so that they can operate and take predictable actions whether or not you are around.

So I put it to the test…..

The outcome was fairly predictable really. A good portion of team members took a holiday along with me (although I don’t think it was planned and they didn’t stay in the same hotel!!) The local rock stars who are hungry for it continued to be just as hungry even when I was on foreign soil and not quite as available as usual. Of course I am fortunate to have a wonderful upline who made himself available for them also.

A couple of international rock stars continued on just as though I was at home as usual. (Actually they seemed to be doing even better!) This is particularly interesting because it proves Randy Gage’s theory to be spot on. The long distance lines (i.e.; not local or even in the same country as the leader) were absolutely unaffected by my absconding to warmer climes. This is for obvious reasons! I am not around for them other than by long distance emailing/ skype etc anyway so it made absolutely no difference to their production. For them it was business as usual because I was in touch every couple of days online. They have their own leadership and training structure in their own country and follow the system for daily and weekly activity. Therefore why should they care if I am in UK or Israel? They simply don’t!

It also demonstrates the wonderful ‘Pareto’s law.’ (Think that’s the one!) You know where the 20% do pretty much everything. They are the rock stars in our business.

Aaaah. What a wonderful feeling. A taste of true passive income and duplication happening with or without me. Exciting hey?

Stay tuned for next blog which will be top tips for prospecting every day online even when sunbathing, overeating and spending all day with your family on holiday…. All that is required is 30 minutes and access to a pc. Even one in the hotel lobby!
