The one problem that has happened in our family is that networking is also a very emotional business, and so is my family.
We grow close reaching out for our goals and dreams. We become vulnerable proclaiming our success and failures for the whole world to see. And with that, when one member leaves the company it's like a divorce for a period. That's where I feel like a mom, I have to work harder to keep us all together. I will tell you it's sometimes HARD!
I hear the good bad and the ugly of my business vs your business. I see the best come out and the worst come out in the people I care about.
See we as network marketers are very passionate people. We care so much about people and what they can achieve that sometimes when others don't see or feel or experience or react like we think they should, we get hurt. Then the "my company is better then yours" comes barreling out. It's human.
We all do it , (including me) it's a defense mechanism. It helps us get through the times when you doubt what and who you are. The saying "you can cut your own job but never cut someone else's job" is so true. Remember there are enough people in this world for everyone. But you only have one family, so wether they choose to get in your business, someone else's , or work traditionally , they are family! After all the money is made, lost, and made again , family is still here FOREVER!
By the way mine is better then anyone's ! (And I bet you would beg to differ)
Go! Fight! Win! Baby!

Great post!!!!!!! Couldn't agree more!
