Are you “Plugged-In” to the System?  

A power supply extension cable is an example of what our IDA system does. Just as an extension cable is capable of being a power source for any electrical appliance connected to it -- The system is an energy source for anyone plugged into it.  

Let’s imagine a light bulb. The size of the globe wattage can be compared to the size of your commitment to system. The light given off has absolutely nothing to do with the cable, but everything to do with the wattage of the light bulb plugged in. If you only plug in a low watt globe; you can only ever have a low wattage output from that small globe. Low wattage globes (low commitment) only give a little light. Negatives can easily block out the light from a low watt globe. A small bulb, equals small belief that is easily smothered. People join and then quit because they never had a big enough light of their own to show the way to their dreams. There wasn’t anything wrong with the system. It was just that the light (belief) available from the little globe did nothing to stimulate the belief of what was possible. 

Imagine the same power cable, the same system, but plug in a larger size light globe (belief/commitment). Because it is now a higher wattage globe, a greater amount of light (belief) is focused in my life.  This higher wattage providing more light in my life and my belief structure, makes my activities much easier because I can see further and more clearly and I don’t bump into obstacles. Negatives don’t overcome this light as easily. 

Now imagine a 500 watt flood light, still the same power supply—same system, but now I have an even greater application of system-energy in my life. I am reading books, listening to CD’s and attending all possible functions, coaching with my team mentor. This gives an enormous light into my own life and business and I have the ability to also reflect a huge amount of light. This means that other people can use my light to help believe and identify their own path. The inference here is that I am now developing leadership skills in being able to show others the steps required to begin their own journey. 

Everyone needs their own light source and the more they read, listen and associate, or as we say, "plug in" totally to the system, the more belief they have of their own, that the business will work for them. Even the largest lights have to stay plugged in, because the system (cable) is the source of the power that gives the light. The more they plug in the greater influence their light has.

When you attend a function, all the leaders bring their light (belief) with them and you get so pumped up, fired up, charged up because you can really “see it”. However if you don’t spend time developing your own power source within, your own light will fail and when you attempt to shine, you get stomped on and then you say, "this won’t work for me," and really it is because you don’t have your own light source. 

Plug yourself in to recharge your internal power source. The CDs give you belief that the business works, the books give you belief that it will work for you. The association is where we identify with others it is working for and is also where we celebrate the amount of light that is possible when we all get together and play team.  

The more you take in, the more reserves you have to see further, to carry you forward, and to give out.
