Self-belief is what drives you to your dream. David Imonitie believes in this saying wholeheartedly. He was born on July 2, 1983, in Merryville, Missouri and he is now the number-one African American income earner in the direct sales industry. What makes him special? Well, his ability to rank seventh in a 150-million-people sector speaks a lot about his capabilities. David was a college drop-out, but this didn’t stop him from exploring and reaching for his dreams.
Morality over greed
David Imonitie believes that every person will get opportunities in life where he/she has to decide between right and wrong. They need to decide what’s morally correct and what’s not. Sometimes immoral activities can help you earn millions. But will that make you a better person? Will you repent later for making an unethical decision? These are questions that you need to answer before making a deal.
Over the years, David has built his foundation through his power of self-belief and hard work. He says that nothing comes easy in this world. You can be one of the most educated persons in your group, but if you don’t strive to utilize your skills, no one will give you a golden spoon and make you popular. You have to be genuine, authentic, and most importantly, someone who stands for truth and makes the right decisions.
Business mindset
David Imonitie is a complete package. He is a successful trainer, serial entrepreneur, and avid investor. David spent several years in the network marketing industry. However, it didn’t go too well for him. In an interview, David said that he had a different mindset of making money in network marketing. He had to do a lot of things he didn’t like. Those were not his principles. Soon, he started doing things his own way. He left the company he was working for and started his own network marketing business. What followed was a result of his self-belief, honesty, and hard work.
David is one of those rare people who have clear ideas on what he wants to do next. This allows him to plan and stay focused on his endeavors. His five-years of hard work in the network marketing industry taught him a lot about how to execute his plans effectively.
He believes that you should be honest with yourself no matter what company you work for. Even if you start your business, you shouldn’t resort to something that doesn’t fit your beliefs or ideals, just to make some extra money. According to David, that will only give you temporary success.
Learning from his leaders
David Imonitie didn’t become David Imonitie in one day. He credits all his success to his coach and mentor, Mr. Holton and Earlene Buggs. This couple inspired him to become a good person. They always said that people might have tons of wealth-building philosophies and theories. However, you should reflect on your decisions to see if those philosophies match your beliefs or not. That is the path to long-term success. That is the path David took after failing miserably during the early years of his business ventures.
David’s surge in this industry is an inspiration for millions. You should consider yourself lucky if you can achieve even a fraction of what he achieved by following your beliefs and working hard.
