This is Millennium Biltmore Hotel @ Los Angeles. A hotel with very rich history, not because its stood the test of time, but because it has been in hundreds of movies! :) Hollywood has been using Biltmore as part of their set. The people are absolutely wonderful and exceedingly helpful. :) Oh! By the way, while shopping at Las Vegas...ahmm... at the Levi's store (remember to go!!!) I left my phone!! Levi's was so kind enough to FedEx it to Biltmore, LA for me! Wasn't that cool! :) Thanks, Levi's! Lesson: Do good for someone everyday!
We arrived at Nokia Theater! And boy was it packed, there were so many people! Let me give you a sample! 2500 South Korean's! 3000 people from Japan! And those that were able to get into the Nokia Theater, were the top 1% of the Nu Skin leadership! So, we were very privileged and honored to be among the Best of Nu Skin!
And the important thing to note, I mean the most distinguishing factor, the thing I could see so drastically consistent, so amazingly clear, was they all looked, rather normal... I mean, they looked like normal people! They didn't have super human powers, they were not crazy people all talking and shouting at the same time (like speakers), they were ordinary people lining up and working as a team (taking photos with the team), they were average people carrying their back packs and Nu Skin ageLOC products!
Oh! Another thing.... they all had FIRE in their eyes! PASSION in their hearts! SPEED in their actions! POWER in their focus! EXCITEMENT in their dreams! ENERGY in their posture! That was something we were familiar to, we saw all the time in Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, HongKong and with the people we meet, they reminded me of YOU GUYS! :)
A view from inside the theater... Man Mountain Man Sea! The Energy was simply amazing! It was Electrifying! :)
Quotes from Blake:
"What we do best, is to help improve lives."
"Your future will be Amazing!"
"This is the heart of this business, humans love helping humans... and we do that until our dreams come true, that's a perfect business to be in, it feels great, its fulfilling..."
"Do not sponsor yucky and dishonest people, we don't like them!" (And Blake says this at every convention.)
"What have you done good for someone today?" was a question asked to a very famous scientist from his father each day. And to answer this question each day, this scientist had to actually do good to someone, just so that he could report back to his father at dinner time each night. This created a habit that has been the cornerstone of his success. I think this is a such a profound question, so simple, yet the implications of it is so powerful!
"do something for someone else today...and you will have unthinkable success....never stop improve the lives of others...Its not what you have, but who you become, its about the people and I want you to be a part of it, to have a spectacular life!"
Key messages from Truman:
"Obama should have talked to us before he started the phrase, 'YES WE CAN', because in Nu Skin we say 'YES WE WILL!!!' "
"What is our GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT? Is it...
1) Our global and seamless business plan that is consistent in almost 50 contries?
2) Continuously breaking sales records each month or quarter? (Q3 2009 and September revenues was the highest in Nu Skin history!)
3) Creating 635 USD Millionaires including 26 of them with over USD20 Million in commissions, averaging 1 USD Millionaire every 10 days!?
4) Being listed on the NYSE and being the only Anti-Aging network marketing company among the 11 who exceeds sales of USD1 Billion?
5) Having a consistent rating of 5A1 by Dun & Bradstreet; which just shows how financially strong and stable we are?
6) The only network marking company in the world to WIN THE MOST STEVIES Awards? (Eg. Most Innovative Company, Best CEO, Best Corporate Social Responsible and more etc)
7) Consistently creating Breakthrough Innovations (Scanner, Spa, TRA, LifePak Nano, g3 and AgeLOC)?
8) Providing 165 Million Vitemeals to Malnourished Children all over the world?
I think, the GREATEST ACCOMPLISHMENT is the to see the faces of the families who have had their lives improve by the work we do. "
... take a breather... (It's my 5am...)
"We are living in the greatest window of opportunity... very few people have a financial plan for themselves, and we have an opportunity that can change their lives."
KC noticed something interesting about the sitting arrangement. The best seats in the theater next to TE and MCM's was seats reserved for leaders with 15+ Leadership Points! Even new Blue Diamonds sat 2 sections (!) behind them! WOW! You earn Leadership Points when your Executives (franchises) develop 2 more Executives of their own. This measurement is a key indicator of business strength, network growth and your leadership to create and duplicate leadership yourself! Nu Skin really recognizes this leadership, that is why our 5% 6 Generations business plan is a Leadership driven plan. Designed to reward leaders who focus and build strong deep lines that ultimately sustain their dreams and visions, globally!
OK! 10-14 Leadership Points sits behind the 15+ and there are also a 4+ section as well! :)
The Matrix? What's happening? Neo is Joe? Ha ha ha! Enjoy!
This is Nu Skin, it's all about FUN! And the corporate leaders know how to have a great time, usually at the expense of themselves!
When you laugh at yourself, the world doesn't laugh at you, they laugh with you!
One of the great excitements was Joseph Chang's VP and Chief Scientific Officer announcement of AgeLOC and 2 partnerships that will provide Nu Skin with total exclusivity (rights) to Targeting the Sources of Aging (e.g. like having a very special telescope that can spot sources of aging), Identifying YGC's (Youth Gene Clusters) that are responsible for aging, Reseting these YGC's and turning them on or off to enhance their activity (just like how an equalizer does to music), owning the tools and technology and having the wisdom and experience to put skin care and nutrition to work more efficiently together!
These breakthroughs will propel Nu Skin 10 years ahead of our competitors! :)
Some numbers for thought... in Q3 of 2006, our Galvanic Spa business was USD5Million, in Q3 2009, it has grown to USD68Million! Now, isn't that simply Amazing! With AgeLOC, this will only sky rocket up! Are you ready for this?!
Key messages from Truman:
"Nu Skin is the only network marketing company that has successfully infused both skin care and nutrition into one company and that means greater strength in product and growth!"
Some people may think that joining new companies or start ups offers the greatest room for growth. "Nu Skin is an opportunity far greater than any start up can ever ever provide! We are tried, tested and we have thrived over 25 years! Take a look at this statistic. A typical startup will invest about USD1 Million as investment, unlike these wanabe's, Nu Skin has over the last decade, invested USD1 Billion to provide you with the most compelling business possible! So you don't have to do it with any other start up over and over again!"
Cool or cool? :)
"We know that this business is a about you, a journey of personal development... and the ultimate test of entrepreneurial spirit, desire to succeed, tenacity and courage to do what ever it takes, and to be a leader that laughs at rejection, the next 25 years starts with you! YES WE WILL!"
Natasha Bedingfield was invited to sing... This is a great song!
Look who's here! Some warm familiar faces! It's great to meet up half way around the world and just HUG! :)
USD25Million photo! :) We were pleasantly surprised and honored to have had lunch with these great leaders! Dr. Lang & Jane Chou (Team Elite and USD20 MCM, Joseph & Janet Cheung, (Team Elite and USD5MCM)! It was a rare learning experience to have the time to just listen and learn from great teachers. Their experience and wisdom in the business speaks volumes. What I learnt from them was to focus, persist and be humble always, and they need not have to say it, they were simply living it and being it. :)
So blessed are we! :)
This is a short video of the line, just to pay for the products! I mean, it's crazy... and the AgeLOC stock ran out! People were grabbing it like hot cakes! This session was for the general audience, luckily we got our products the day before in a special BD/TE session. :)
This is a new video just released about the Nu Skin opportunity. Sorry for the angle and quality of the video. I will do better! :)
This is a T up to recognizing New Diamond pins! COOL EH?! :)
Getting ready to go into Universal Studios!
Nu Skin booked the whole Universal Studios for us! Man Mountain Man Sea .. again! All the food were free, there were no waiting in lines! Shiok lah!!! :)
OK.. I must admit, Bart has more pointy hair than me! He's cool, dude! :)
Marilyn Monroe! Notice the mouth shape... try it! :) 
This was a REALLY REALLY FUN ride. Can't tell you more about it! Just have to come. :)Before I got to get a few minutes of shut eye to begin the 2nd day of the convention (Gala night)...
We wished that all of you could be here. Be here to experience the Energy, Passion, Excitement! Be here to 'see' your dreams clearer. Be here to 'touch' other leaders and have a glimpse at their dreams. Be here to witness it all 1st hand. Be here to be a part of history.
"Don't worry about the future, unless you are planning a strategy.
Don't fret about the past, unless you are learning a lesson.
Only focus on the present, because when you are here and present, you are at your most powerful.
No past can hold you,
no future can stop you.
When you are here, now, you are invincible."
By the way, if you plan to come in the future, don't plan to come once in your life, plan to come every time in your life.
I leave you with this image....
Because you are!
