As some of you may know, over the past year, I have undergone a series of surgeries<\/a> after tests revealed that my condition wasn’t hopeless and that my life could be saved. Some have been an inconvenience and others, the most painful experiences of my life. Yesterday was hopefully the last one for a while and the prognosis is good.<\/p>\n

The reason that I mention my surgical saga is that sometimes I am very prolific and send emails, improve my website, post and tweet on social media and at other times, I am nowhere to be found. Now that I have survived this lifesaving surgery, I will be so thankful that I will be more consistent in expressing, if nothing else, my gratitude to the Surgeon.<\/p>\n

Throughout it all, however, I have steadfastly promoted Team Beachbody as our “field of diamonds<\/a>“. As the story goes, “The field of diamonds was about a farmer who left his farm in the care of a neighbor and traveled the world seeking riches when all along his property was on a \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcfield of diamonds’ – but he never bothered to look down and notice them.” There are lots of ways to lose weight, get in shape and feel great, but to me, Team Beachbody is the best opportunity and it is already ours.<\/p>\n

If you are a free member<\/a><\/strong>, you are and “Explorer<\/strong>” checking out what all of the excitement is about.<\/p>\n

If you are a Club member<\/strong><\/a>, you are a “Learner<\/strong>“, using all of the information, resources and tools to achieve your goals.<\/p>\n

If you are a Coach’s Club member<\/strong><\/a>, you are a “Saver<\/strong>“. You get a 25% discount on all Beachbody products and you use it to save, for example, almost $180.00 a year on Shakeology, the premium nutrition for your body.<\/p>\n

Finally, you can have a Coach membership<\/strong><\/a> and you are an “Earner<\/strong>” and entrepreneur.<\/p>\n

Under the Coach category are several levels, the first of which is the entry level coach designation. You use it to get your 25% discount and to give your friends, family members, coworkers, etc., the opportunity to buy nationally known products like P90X, Insanity, TurboFire and, of course, Shakeology directly from you and get a better price and faster shipping on their orders. You make $25.00 or so here and there from commissions on those purchases.<\/p>\n

Another Coach category is the Emerald Coach level which is you and two other people benefiting from the 25% discount. By guiding other people to the Team Beachbody information, resources and tools, you will maybe make an extra $100.00 a week, or if you put more time into your business, as much as a few hundred dollars a week.<\/p>\n

Then there is the Diamond Coach, who fully realizes that he already has his “field of diamonds” and he invests his time in helping people benefit the most from the various memberships. He has separate “fields” dedicated to Club members, Coach’s Club members, his Coaches and his Emerald Coaches. He also has a “field” dedicated to his future “diamonds”. Those Diamond Coaches become his “Field of Dreams” because he knows that if he nurtures them, they will grow and his true rewards will start to pour forth from his “land”.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n
