​STAGE 1
EXCITEMENT

At this stage a consultant is excited about the future and possibilities of her Mary Kay career! This is where we always want to be!
STAGE 2
FRUSTRATION

Postponements
Obstacles
"Why won't my friends and family book with me?"
STAGE 3
SHOCK

"They said it would be SO EASY!"
STAGE 4
DENIAL

You decide to withdraw. You avoid your meetings. You cook every recipe you can from Pinterest and start to craft on the weekends. Your attitude really starts to go south.

STAGE 5
FEAR

I can't do this. Maybe this isn't for me?
They didn't tell me it would be like THIS!
You start to blame everyone else but yourself...your recruiter, your kids, your husband...you name it...it's their fault, not yours.
STAGE 6
ANGER

You get angry at yourself. You admit and recognize that your feelings are not positive. You realize you are responsible for your own success or failures!
STAGE 7
SETTLE

I never wanted my own business anyway. I actually love my other job because it's pretty fulfilling. The hours aren't even that bad. I mean, eventually someday we will have that down payment for a home. So you decide to QUIT and walk away from your dreams.
STAGE 8
RE-COMMIT

You realize it's not like me to give up on my goals OR get discouraged. You decide to get excited again! You send positive messages to the brain and become realistic with your expectations! You get back to your success meetings and open your mind to the possibility of success again!

When you go through this cycle, go through it FAST! Continue to attend Success Meetings, and remember to always “reach up” to your director when in need (share your frustrations, etc.). Success will follow. There is no gain without pain. Expand your comfort zone. Frustration ALWAYS precedes growth or retreat. Imagine a fork in the road. When frustration hits, you can take the “growth” path, or you can take the “fear and retreat” path. CHOOSE GROWTH! The choice is YOURS, and only one thing will get you out of Stage 4...ACTION! Read motivational books, listen to positive CD’s, and call someone who is in your “Amen” corner. This person is someone who is CONSISTENTLY POSITIVE, and makes you laugh! 

AVOID NEGATIVITY!!!!!!!!! 
​

I am here to help, and I care very much about your success, however, I can’t help you if I don’t hear from you. Remember, you will start to succeed JUST WHEN you most want to quit! Hang in there, and you too will be among the ranks of the MOST SUCCESSFUL WOMEN IN AMERICA - both personally and professionally. 
I believe in you!!!

"Your attitude determines your altitude." -Mary Kay Ash
