I hate math, except where it relates to increasing my bank balance. But I love this particular piece of math. If you took a penny and doubled it every day for 30 days, how much money would you have? Can you take a guess?

Let’s do the math together.

Day 1 .01
Day 2 .02
Day 3 .04
Day 4 .08
Day 5 .16
Day 6 .32
Day 7 .64
Day 8 1.28
Day 9 2.56
Day 10 5.12
Day 11 10.24
Day 12 20.48
Day 13 40.96
Day 14 81.92
Day 15 163.84
Day 16 327.68
Day 17 655.36
Day 18 1,310.72
Day 19 2,621.44
Day 20 5,242.88
Day 21 10,485.76
Day 22 20,971.52
Day 23 41,943.04
Day 24 83,886.08
Day 25 167,772.16
Day 26 335,544.32
Day 27 671,088.64
Day 28 1,342,177.28
Day 29 2,684,354.56
Day 30 5,368,709.12

On day 31 you would have a staggering $10,737,418.24.

This is what I love so much about network marketing, and particularly the company I work with that has the best compensation plan in the business. It takes some work to get the business up and running (no get rich quick schemes here). But the payoff is tremendous if you stick with it until you hit that critical mass point, where your business grows whether you get out of bed or not!

Do not quit on day 15 (figuratively speaking). I know $163.84 is not a lot of money, but if you stick with it, look at what you end up with!

I’m just giving you food for thought here, because this scenario is kind of similar to network marketing. People simply give up too soon. Dont’ do that. Don’t give up – you might just be half way there!
