Hi Lauren, I don't think we disagree - I'm saying the people at the top who establish the
business in the first place KNOW the dynamics that make MLM make money for them.
They exploit YOUR desire to do create a better life for your kids, YOUR willingness to
pressure family and friends, YOUR willingness to blame yourself for not trying hard
enough etc etc (all the things we've heard about why MLM is so destructive)
get me wrong, I'm blaming MLM for exploiting YOU - and I'm saying that the head
honchos who set it up in the first place know full well how to do it.
I'm NOT saying that YOU set up in your MLM business to cynically exploit others.
And PW, the connection between low self-esteem and MLM? Here are some examples:
"I hated the feeling that everyone was a prospect and if I wasn't sharing the Arbonne story
with someone everyday, and for sure everyone that I came into contact with, then I wasn't
a good person."
" I slowly began to feel like if I wasn't rah-rah-rah about Arbonne, pounding the pavement
to sign up new people, launching new business builders, etc, then I wasn't much of a
person."
"No more opening my calendar and feeling guilty and ashamed and worthless"
Those are from DukeBoyz01's original post - and that's the most recent of
thousands on this forum.
Now tell me you don't recognise lack of self-esteem in those quotes?
If you do, are we saying that MLM takes happy, self-assured people and turns them into
people who feel worthless and ashamed?
Or does it prey on people who struggle with that in the first place? I think it's an
important question to ask - even if it's not a comfortable one.
