Diamonds have gone through the fire and the pressure. Diamonds have no choice they can only get stronger and stronger now! Do you have what it takes to be a Diamond?
The same stuff that coal and your pencil lead is made of (carbon) is the same stuff diamonds are made of, the atoms are just arranged in a way that make the bonds very strong in diamonds as compared to coal. Diamonds come from the same place as coal. But their formulation is just different.
A Lot of Fortitude to Make Diamond
The bonds are formed when carbon is at very high temperatures and under very high pressures. Natural diamonds are made deep down in the earth, about 180km below the surface, where high temperatures and pressures exist naturally. Under the earths crust is the mantel, which is made up of molten rock, metals and other materials. The temperature is very high at this depth - between 1100oC and 1400oC. The high pressures are produced by the weight of 180 km of rocks pressing down on it. Besides carbon, there are very small amounts of other substances, such as nitrogen and sulfur that can become trapped in the crystal when it is formed in the mantel. These impurities can give color to the diamond. One of the rarest is Pink Diamonds. The engagement ring that Ben Afleck gave to Jennifer Lopez is a pink diamond, making the ring worth $3 million dollars.
As with the precious stone (Diamond) it takes time, temperature and a lot of pressure to form a person into a Diamond. And how rare indeed is a Pink Diamond! Those people who would be Diamond’s are the ones that hang in there through the touch times. They don’t know the word Quit or Never! How would you like to be worth $3 million dollars? Ever heard the phase just an ‘old lump of coal’? Read On!
Where does the carbon come from to make Diamonds?
Most diamonds are made of carbon that was in the mantle since the earth was formed, but some are made of carbon from the bodies and shells of microorganisms like algae in ancient oceans. This organic carbon was buried in rocks that were dragged down into the mantle because of plate tectonics and continental drift. All living things on earth are based on carbon. If you or I were to somehow fall into an ocean trench at the edge of a tectonic plate where rocks are being dragged underneath a continent, we might reappear millions of years later as diamonds!
Everyone that comes into this business (Network Marketing) starts out the same. We are all just ‘A lump of Coal’. Some are transformed into a beautiful Diamond and even fewer become a Pink Diamond! But the saddest thing to me is those who never transform because they quit just short and they remain just an ‘old lump of coal’. Where does the person come from to make “Diamond”? One person at a time till there is enough! Allow yourself to be dragged underneath your continent!
For anyone to succeed in any business, I do not care what kind of business you are talking about; there is a transformation that must take place. Everyone who has succeeded in business has gone through a fire and been dragged under their continent. The Diamonds are those people that have hung it in, never relenting, but pressing on through the struggles and trials to get to the ‘glory land’.
Keep On Keeping On and You Will Receive the Reward!
Each and every person reading this right now has what it takes to make it in their on home-based business. We all start out as just an old lump of coal. But those that have the fortitude to learn and grow – study and apply – read books and listen to tapes (motivational) have what it takes to be independently wealthy and healthy. “You Were Born With the Seeds of Greatness” Zig Ziglar!
Building your own business takes a lot of fortitude just like the fortitude it takes to make Diamonds. Have you ever wondered why the top positions in Network Marketing are called Diamonds? Could it have to do with the fact that those people that make it to the top in Network Marketing have developed much the same as this special rock called diamonds?
You see it takes a special person that is willing to make changes and go through a real metamorphosis. All of us have developed habits over the years that keep us from obtaining the kind of success that is needed to be our own boss and to work our own home-based business. Just like that rock made into a Diamond we to must be fortified!
A friend of mine once said, ‘We have to develop the hind of a rhinoceros.
’ We must learn to not allow anything or anyone to penetrate us. Negative Garbage In – Negative Garbage Out!
Always remember that you may start out as an ‘old lump of coal’ but you can eventually become a Diamond and quite possibly you could be one of those rare Pink Diamonds! Work on yourself and make the necessary changes in your life that you need to make because You my friend have what it takes to work for yourself. It does not matter what anyone tells you whether they be friend or employer. You Can Be Successful In Your Own Home-Based Business – Just Give Yourself Time To Develop (Fortification)!!
