We didn't even realize how bound we were by all the legal garb when we got registered in Quixtar. Of course we didn't read the 100 pages of rules and regulations....we got signed up by faith, believing that the company was good, after all....they had been around for 50 years! We even chuckled when a prospect wanted to take the time to read the policies etc....shame on us!! Live and learn. We have printed out the policies of Mona Vie and have highlighted things we needed clarity on. We worked so hard in Q to try and achieve the coveted "kingpin" but always...3 steps forward 2 steps back....working our guts out. Didn't even attend our sons graduation from college, cause we were at a conference and SO committed and people were counting on us....(what about our son)!! We were on a 2-5 year quest of financial freedom!! After 6 hard years....we did achieve Founders Platinum. NOW we can see that the worst thing that we could have done was to SUCCEED to the higher ranks...talk about being owned....following the bread crumbs right into the cage...Ah, ha.....gottcha!! You can check out anytime you want....but you can never leave!! We are still trying to get ourselves decultified!! All we can say is that we are so thankful that we didn't waste anymore time chasing a silly rabbit....THANK YOU ORRIN!!!! Even if we would have made Diamond....we would have known too much....about the "secret" stuff going on behind closed doors....and that is no way to live. "An excellent man does what's right when no one is looking. They don't just do what's right when someone is watching them. They do what's right when nobody is around, because they have the revelation....an excellent man has the revelation, that God sees everything and he knows he lives before the all seeing eye, who's every where all the time. And he realizes that everything that is done in secret will eventually come out into the open. The God who sees us in secret, rewards us in the open. I don't believe we're just rewarded for our good deeds, I believe there comes a time of justice where we reap whatever we have sown." The Making of A Leader Here's to the Bright New Future........... Thank you Mr. Larsen.....You are making a huge impression on us as former IBOs. Between yourself and Orrin Woodward and TEAM....As the words to one of my favorite songs goes by Carole King....I FEEL THE EARTH MOVE UNDER MY FEET I FEEL THE SKY TUMBLING DOWN....Let's all PRESS IN.....get to the tipping point.....how many stones will have to be removed before the wall comes tumbling down!!! LET'S ROLL................... "The person who moves a mountain begins by carrying away small stones!"
