You’ve started a business with a company that has an amazing culture of recognition, celebration and support. That all comes from a culture of self-development, learning, growing and challenging yourself. Personal development is the single best thing you can do for yourself to ensure the success of your Arbonne business.  Why? Because it fills your “belief cup”. It helps you stay strong, stay positive, keep your eye on the prize and your focus on what you need to do every day to achieve your goals.

The truth is, not everyone will “get” why you started your Arbonne business, understand what network marketing is or even be supportive of you. Growing yourself as a person and filling your mind and your “cup” with positivity will help you become resilient and stay positive throughout the ebb and flow of your business. Personal development and growth will help build your belief across three key areas: the industry (network marketing), Arbonne as a brand and the most important and often the most difficult - yourself.

So here is one of the most critical pieces of advice for your business - when the going gets tough - and it probably will - do more self development. Read more. Listen more. Plug into training more. Connect with your business partner more. Fill your cup more. Without a doubt, every single consultant who has reached the top of this company will tell you that self development was the game changer and what got them there. You will find that everyone you meet in Arbonne will tell you that you absolutely have the ability to get to the top of the company BUT if you don't believe it then you wont. And vice versa, many people may actually doubt that you can actually get to the top of the company, but if you truly believe it, you will!

So here’s how to take care of your mind and soul: complete 30 minutes a day of professional and personal development everyday, no excuses, no matter what. If you are time poor, consider breaking it up into three 10-minute chunks: in the morning, at lunch and at bedtime. Schedule it into your diary like you would a 1:1 appointment and stick to the schedule! If you cant read a book then listen to one through an App like Audible (audio books available for most titles). The personal growth you will experience by doing this will be truly incredible. People will notice the positive differences in you and it will show across all areas of your life, not just in your business!

Below are some great books / audios / recordings to help get you started with your personal development and growth. We have sorted this section into three core areas - yourself, the industry and the brand. If you are struggling with your belief in the industry, then listen to and read the suggestions below under Belief in the Industry. If you are unsure about the brand, then build your belief by reading and listening to the recommendations under Arbonne.

The one thing that most people struggle with though when they start, is their belief that they can actually do this business and have success. Believe us when we say this, most of us didn't ever expect to have the success we have had. BUT this is the best part - Arbonne does not discriminate on who gets to be successful - it is simply those who invest in themselves the most, that have the most belief in themselves (or at a minimum, are acting their way into believing they will have success by following everything we teach them in this Platform). So we urge you to integrate reading and persona development into your daily habits, just like you do brushing your teeth! So go through the examples below (and no we don't expect you to read them all at once - chat to your business partner or uplink and get their input on where you could start) and get ready for wonderful personal growth!
