Defining Your 'Why' & Reaching Your Goals 04 News You Can Use Kendra: Thank you Jerry for joining us for another episode of The Founder's Table.

On the last episode we talked about your story and you shared with us some really great insight into your past, how you got started in the business, and now I’m excited to move from past to present.

that any of us are strong enough on our own to accomplish our total dreams. So if we have a dream, we need to get that down so that we take the step of making it attractive enough so that the power of that visualisation pulls us up to success. So that is the first step.

So we’ll be covering a lot of the most relevant and important subjects that face entrepreneurs today. Let’s get started with talking about the big picture. We know that if we have big goals we have to know how to get there and have to be motivated to get there. You've always reinforced the power of having a strong but clear and concise why – “why are you in this business in the first place?” Can you please speak to that?

Kendra: Could that be summarised into saying that an effective 'why' has to answer the question ‘what do I want my legacy to be after I’m not here anymore?’

Jerry: Yes. I believe it all starts there. In fact, you mentioned ‘the big picture’ and I've always felt that my reason or my ‘why’ was big. Even though looking back, my ‘why’ has changed many times. Now my original ‘why’ looks rather small.

So first of all, to understand your ‘why’ or ‘why am I doing this’ or ‘why should I do anything’, I believe we must first recognize we were created to do things. That we were created to improve, as individuals personally and that were put here to help other people. So we start there and then realize that our ‘why’ changes as we go on forward. So it starts with ‘why’ and that has everything to do with our personal dream. In other words, what do we visualize in our minds that we would like to be, we would like to accomplish, we would like to build. The first step is to visualize that dream, and then realize that dream needs to be strong enough, powerful enough, attractive enough, and big enough to pull us up. In other words we don't quit because our dream is motivating us to keep going even when it's tough going. I don't believe

Jerry: Well I think it can be your legacy but my first ‘why’ was ‘what do I want to accomplish in the way of the size of my business’. My ‘why’ is maybe I need a better home, maybe I need a more stable financial situation. Maybe my first ‘why’ is ‘I’m so miserable with all the debt I have and I just want to get out of debt. That was my first ‘why’ – getting out of debt. It seemed pretty big to me at the time.

Kendra: I love how you talk about reevaluating that and looking at what’s going to motivate us where we are today.

Now, what kind of reevaluation did you do in your own personal life?

Jerry: Well for example if we go back, I remember my first goal, my dream, was to be debt-free and I wanted to get up to zero net worth. I was a young man that owed money to my father, to my uncle, to a couple of finance companies, and I needed to get that debt off my back. My dream was powerful at that time because I realized what this debt was doing to me. Along with that, thinking very big, I wanted to have $4,000 cash in the bank and not owe anyone anything. So then the next step is to have some goals in my business that might allow that to happen. By setting goals I was able to write them down.

In other words, goals are not effective unless we visualize the goal, we write it down, we think about it and then we assign a timeframe

to that goal as part of our dream. By assigning a time frame to it, this keeps us thinking about it because we’re running out of time. With that in mind, once we shoot past our goal and dream, we have to set a new goal and a new dream.

PEOPLE

It's an ongoing process that evolves as we put in place the things that cause us to accomplish our dreams and our 'why'.

And that involves other people and the relationships that we build in our lives that allow us to do something. We can't do it on our own.

Kendra: How do you go about finding those people? What did you do initially starting out? What were you looking for?

Jerry: I started out looking for anybody that would just join me. I would talk to anybody even if they were very negative or very positive. I soon refined that process a little bit. I found that people that were too much bother, too much trouble, that were just so negative, maybe not their fault, but life had dealt them so many hardships and setbacks and they were around other negative people.

The effect of these deep-rooted negative beliefs made it almost impossible for them to make progress. So I would choose not to involve them in my team and family because they were too much trouble.

So I would look for the basics. The same things we look for when we hire employees in the company, I would look for in my team. I believe that if you have the right attitude, basically positive, normal, and good cheer, then you can teach the skill.

So that was what I look for. Just people I like to be around.

Immunity

Feed Your Defences Healthy bodies keep the immune system strong! Strong immune systems keep the body healthy! That’s a pretty clear and obvious relationship.

What’s maybe not so obvious is that both of these are completely and entirely dependent upon diet. Poor diet equals poor immune function and poor health. That is perhaps most strongly supported by the understanding that every dietary deficiency results in some form of immune compromise.

Every deficiency, all the time! In fact, malnutrition is the most common cause of immune deficiency in the world.1 Even in the “industrial world” where food is widely available to nearly everyone, undernutrition, defined as a lack of key nutrients with or without a lack of kilojoules, also results in immune compromise; especially for the elderly or hospitalised.2,3

Your First Line of Defence Probably the single most important thing that keeps us all alive and healthy in the face of myriad challenges we are confronted with each and every minute of every day throughout our lives is our immune system.

It is literally our first line of defence against all that would harm us.

n the traditional medical sense our immune system was seen primarily as a defence against biological attacks from bacteria, viruses and other potentially harmful (pathogenic) microorganisms.

Though that definition is completely true and very important, it is more limited than many modern researchers believe. A modern perspective of the immune system calls for the inclusion of chemical and biochemical challenges as well. The ability of the body to neutralise a potentially toxic chemical or quench a potentially harmful biochemical reaction is also an important protective function that contributes to our “immunity.”

Not surprisingly, the over-ingestion of kilojoules that leads to overweight and obesity can also lead to immune system compromise.4 Thus, maintaining a healthy body weight also promotes attaining and maintaining optimal immune potential.

Powerful Protein A lack of adequate protein in the diet, known as protein-energy malnutrition or PEM, is a common cause of immune dysfunction. This is true for all of us, but especially in the young and elderly.5,6 It is well known that protein deficiencies can stunt physical growth and mental

development, and that these results are perpetuated into adulthood.7 Whatever the cause of insufficient dietary protein, the result is an increased risk of infection from adverse effects on both our innate (immediate, non-specific response to a challenge) and adaptive (learned, specific response from past exposures) immune capabilities.8 Though protein is widely available within the western industrial food supply, poor protein quality or the conscious decision to avoid protein, especially animal protein, can result in protein deficiency. It is not manifested as a black or white situation, but rather one of degrees, causing the immune system to be generally weaker than it would be with a diet rich in high quality protein.

It should also be noted that protein deficiencies usually occur along with deficiencies of essential micronutrients, including: vitamins A, B6, D, E, folic acid, zinc, iron, copper and selenium. Thus assuring micronutrient abundance is a critical, immune-building factor as well.9

Poor Nutrition = Poor Immunity, Great Nutrition = Great Immunity Carotenoids: Anyone who has been around NeoLife for any length of time has probably heard the company or its Scientific Advisory Board members speak about how the quality of your diet can modulate your immune potential.

It has been well established that the levels of certain nutrients relate directly to immune capacity. In fact, in 1997, researchers from the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) published evidence, in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, on research they conducted with NeoLife Carotenoid Complex. In that data, they showed that Carotenoid Complex is capable of boosting specific markers of immune competence in an otherwise carotenoid deficient diet.10 That effect has been shown several times since then, making dietary carotenoids an important immune competence indicator.11 It is, at least in part, because of this relationship between carotenoids and immune function that abundant and diverse dietary carotenoid intake is also associated with cancer prevention.12,13,14,15

Omega-3 fatty acids: Several studies have shown that some specific dietary fatty acids can also modulate immunity.12 Again this means that their presence or absence, and in this case balance, can affect immune capability. This is particularly true of the polyunsaturated fatty acids of the classes known as omega-3 and omega-6; both are considered essential. Within the immune system they are incorporated into the membranes of immune cells.

There they modulate cell signalling of immune and inflammatory responses as well as the production of other immune molecules called eicosanoids.

Generally the “western diet” contains far too much omega-6 (inflammatory) and

function. Leading edge research has recently put the spotlight on three specific ways in which they promote optimal immune function. One is that the increased presence of omega-3 fatty acids in specific immune cells (T-cells) affects their cell membrane structure (fluidity), responsiveness and function known as phagocytosis, the process by which immune cells engulf and remove pathogenic organisms or cellular debris.

far too little omega-3 (anti-inflammatory) content. The result creates an immune response imbalance that generates too much of the inflammatory components and too little of the anti-inflammatory components. Research has shown that healing is not fully reached as long as inflammation persists.

A second mechanism is promoting the functional activity of leucocytes (white blood cells) in immune defences against infectious and foreign “invaders.” Third is the mediation of inflammatory response between pro-inflammatory and antiinflammatory forces, including the production of “resolvins,” specific omega-3 generated components that resolve inflammation and promote healing. This also lowers the potential for autoimmune inflammatory disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease and asthma.15

Probiotics = Pro-Immunity

Defend

Three recent studies have highlighted the importance of a healthy gut microbiota (your personal gastrointestinal microbiome) to immune function and performance:

with Probiotics

Mi·cro·bi·o·ta noun: the community of microorganisms living in a specific environment16

Regulation of the formation of blood cell components: A research group from the California Institute of Technology showed that beneficial gut bacteria are needed for the development of cells of the innate component of our immune function; specifically the white blood cells that are our first line of defence against pathogenic invaders and resultant infection.22

Modulating innate immune response: A study showed that when human cells were exposed to the probiotic Bifidobacterium bifidum, the transcription of certain genes was actually changed.17 The majority of genes that were influenced were involved in innate immune response, positively increasing the immune response and decreasing the expression of inflammatory factors.

Vitamins A, C, & D are widely available in the food supply, but are still found to be widely deficient. Data extracted from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and published in 2014 by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) found 95% of adults are deficient in vitamin D, 51% deficient in vitamin A and 43% deficient in vitamin C.18 Aside from the overall negative health potential such deficiencies represent, all three of these are directly related to immune function and thus their deficiency points to serious risk of immune compromise.

Vitamin A: Recent research further highlights the importance of assuring adequate intake of this nutrient.

In addition to its role supporting immune cell generation, vitamin A is now known to direct the action of a key group of immune cells.19 It activates homing beacon-like receptors on cells that draw immune cells specifically to their targets.

Vitamin C: Long known for its involvement as a key element in many of the body’s protective systems, including immune function, it is now thought to mitigate the decline in immune capability associated with ageing. This data showed that T-cell counts, which normally decline with age, were significantly higher when vitamin C was supplemented in the diet.20

Vitamin D: A research team from Ireland has shown that vitamin D deficiency is directly associated with immune compromise. “Our data indicates vitamin D may be involved in maintaining the health of the immune system as well as the skeletal system.”21 Assuring vitamin D adequacy in the diet is therefore essential for optimal immune function, especially as we age.

From experience we know that downlines will do what they see, not what they are told to do. People follow when you lead by example. We also encourage our team to build a total business by getting people started as Distributors, or even as customers. Having customers and caring for them is as important as having Distributors.

The strength of any leader's organisation is in Directors and those in their Director Organisation. We focus on Manager to Director Incentives, which we promote within our direct teams and among our leading Distributors. This is how we hope to develop more Directors, leading to the development of more World Team Members. We constantly review our business activities and wherever there are areas where results

n West African French society we have a stereotypical culture - go to school & find a job. People do not believe in themselves. They do not believe they can do a business on their own and succeed. And this is the reason why we love to talk about how the NeoLife Business Opportunity has helped us achieve our dreams.

We happily share our knowledge, encouraging people in our organisation and helping them to believe in themselves. Today we have so many

The growth we experience in our team was boomed as a result of going backto-basics and by encouraging the team to do the four NeoLife success habits.

The other thing that helped our business to grow is a weekly training session, where we motivate and train our team to do one-on-ones, show them how to remain consistent, give them product knowledge and generally support and encourage them. We always encourage

Of course, we promote Distributors to be 100% users of their own products, as they are becoming more experienced and eventually gain confidence in sharing them with the rest of their prospects and customers.

We emphasise, especially to new Distributors the importance of sharing the products and NeoLife Opportunity with everyone they come across.

Having seen what this business has offered and can offer, we have decided to build a solid business through good leadership that will last and stand the test of time.

WORLD TEAM CONFERENCE 2016

All-Inclusive Fun!

Unforgettable memories were made alongside the majestic ocean and mountain views, indigenous landscapes, luxurious suites, world-class culinary adventures and endless opportunities for fun and adventure!

Feel the Energy Each year, we celebrate the success of individuals who are making a tremendous impact through NeoLife. Both President’s Team and World Team leaders gather to experience luxury at its finest at some of the world's most stunning destinations and resorts. The 2016 World Team Conference in Cape Town was no exception!

Gettin’ Down to Business When attendees weren’t taking in the beauty of white sand beaches or enjoying the all-inclusive amenities, they were experiencing world-class leadership training sessions in an intimate meeting environment.

We heard from leaders, recognised business achievements and received the ultimate in success training from speakers like President of Sales, Roget Uys, Chief Operating Officer, Simon Whetzel and Executive Vice President, Marco Taylor.

Both hearts and minds were filled with the incredible stories and relationship building.

“World Team Conferences are always a highlight for me and Cape Town was no exception. It’s amazing to get together with leaders in the NeoLife business. The business and product info you get from an event like this is invaluable.”

Dr Ezera Nambassi

“Cape Town was amazing - what a destination! It was so inspiring to attend this event. We have told our team that we want to share the next World Team Conference with them. It’s our dream to have many more World Team members go to Mauritius in 2018! ” Josaphat & Jennifer Andreas

“We had such fun in Cape Town. Being part of the NeoLife family and attending top events like this sustains us. How wonderful it is to get together with people who are likeminded.”

Karin & Busso von Alvensleben
