TEAMWORK

Fast Track is a welcome change of pace. Athletes use many carefully developed training strategies to get stronger and faster. But one of the most effective strategies is also one of the simplest: interval training. Doing interval training means mixing short periods of intense activity into longer periods of less-intense activity.

Plan

Why is interval training so effective for athletes? • It lets them accomplish more in less time. • It increases their aerobic capacity. • It keep an otherwise monotonous workout fresh.

SUCCESS CYCLE

Holding regular Fast Tracks can have similar effects. Fast Track helps focus team members’ efforts and keeps them engaged day after day. It’s more intense and may feel like a sprint – but the payoff isn’t just crossing the finish line. Business builders who participate in regular Fast Tracks find that they have a greater capacity than they thought to do the work it takes to reach their daily, weekly, and monthly goals. And Fast Track produces measurable changes quickly – a refreshing and encouraging departure from less-focused efforts that can grow monotonous or ineffective. Get started by making a Fast Track plan. If you aren’t holding regular Fast Tracks with your team, now is a great time to start planning one! You have a lot of leeway in how you run your Fast Track. In March 2021, Senior Vice President of Business Development Kevin Sommer gave some valuable tips for running your own Fast Track. Here they are again – just as pertinent now as they were last year. Commit. Set a goal and a time frame, and make sure everyone on the team is firmly committed to meeting daily as a team and following through on their commitments. Challenge another team – even if they’re not in your organisation. Set a time frame and a criteria for points and get going! Challenge several teams. Keep it simple – perhaps a 60-day challenge with 1 point for an enrolment and 5 points for developing a Director. Add a social media page where everyone can post their numbers.

WHY DOES FAST TRACK WORK? Fast Track focuses on consistently completing the Seven Critical Business-Building Activities, which can lead to building life-changing supplemental income. A Fast Track begins with a firm commitment and involves following the Success Cycle and staying accountable for your actions daily. For example, Marketing Executives who participated in the 2020 Fast Track and met at least five days a week developed three times as many Directors as those who didn’t meet daily as a team. Their average check increase was also more than double those who didn’t meet consistently! There is immense power in participating in daily team meetings and following the Success Cycle.

Fast Track is well worth the effort. Remember what the results can be. Each Marketing Executive who successfully completes a Fast Track will see measurable growth in their business. Advancements often follow a Fast Track – and not just for one or two team members. Fast Track teams will have just spent the previous weeks working closely together, powering each other past obstacles, and cheering each other for every accomplishment, large and small. They will have honed their skills, increased their leadership capacity, and rediscovered the incredible power of working alongside their team members. Think of a relay team preparing for a race against the very best runners in the world. Capturing the win will take excellent coordination and the best efforts of each team member. Running such a race is a thrilling experience! You’ll learn that you can rely on each other’s power, support, and grit over and over. And when you get the baton to the finish line, the feeling is simply incredible. JC
