stage , and I went up to my upline and said , “ Now what ?” There ’ s always this question of what is our next big thing , and we are excited to go for it . I think that ’ s part of moving forward in life and keeping ourselves focused on those things that are ahead of us .
Presidential Diamond Tips Believe and Achieve
TEAMWORK . “ Presidential Diamond is a whole , committed team and leader effort . It ’ s about being a large influence for thousands . Having a Presidential Diamond team is having unity — a oneness toward everyone ’ s higher goals .”
VISUALIZATION . “ Choose it , and go for it ! See yourself making it happen . Visualize yourself on the cover of the magazine , and visualize reaching Presidential Diamond , knowing it is for anyone who wants it . We all have it in us .”
CONSISTENCY . “ Be consistent in just a few things . Consistently hold classes , events , one-on-ones , wellness consults , membership overviews , and work toward getting people enrolled . Then , do that process over and over and over and over again .”
OIL LOVING . “ I really believe that what creates momentum is loving on people with the oils . Create powerful relationships . It is important to get oils on people to let them experience the oils so that they can have those ah-ha moments that many of us have had . That creates a movement .”
How do you work together in your business ? Maree : Someone once said , “ He is your anchor , and you ’ re like a kite out there flying , and he has your kite string grounded .” That has always been a good thing to have in this business . I also feel that when a husband and wife work together , they have different strengths . We need to use all the gifts that we have been given when we come into the world . For example , we get a lot of men that show up for our classes , and Dirk is great at relating and sharing with them .
Dirk : When I first started with Maree , it was all women that would be at the classes , and I kind of felt like an outcast .
So when men showed up to classes with their wives , I decided to have a gift for them just for showing up . I gave them something a guy would use like Deep Blue ® , Peppermint Beadlets , or dōTERRA Breathe ® . I would try to get them involved , and when we introduced ourselves , I would usually say something like , “ Hey man , this stuff is awesome . I mean , I use it . If it wasn ’ t for Maree , I don ’ t know if I would have ever learned about it . It has done some phenomenal things for me . If you ’ re looking for something other than what you are using , then this is it .”
At this stage , what motivates you to keep pressing forward with your business ? Maree : Presidential Diamond was a really big push for us and our team , and we want to continue inspiring our team to do great things . Dave Stirling and others have said that their mission is to get a Family Essentials kit in every home in the world , and we are just as aligned with that goal . We are one with how oils make a difference for little kids , moms , dads , and families , and , to us , that ’ s what it ’ s all about . We ’ re just making a difference , and we ’ re not done . We know that Presidential Diamond is the rank of making a very profound difference , which is what we want to do , and it ’ s why we started doing it . We will never be done passionately sharing about the oils until the world knows that this is the natural way . So for us , it is about making sure that everyone has oils in their homes .
How do you feel your lives have changed because of your success in dōTERRA ? Dirk : It ’ s made me a better person as far as not doing the same routine that I was when I was going to work every day . When I was working at my job in industrial maintenance , I didn ’ t really hang out with people and talk to them and get to know them . But in this business , I came out of that shell by being able to share the oils and interact with our leaders . They are our team members , but they are also our family and friends .
Maree : It has changed my life . I ’ m a giver , it ’ s just one of the things that I like to do . It has been such a gift in this position to just give and do things for others . We have missionaries that come and go and we just hand them cash , and we support them while they ’ re out . We give to families who are in need for Christmas . We are able to give so much back because we have so much . The blessings of that are huge , and it fills my heart . I think that a generous heart brings so much back to you . That ’ s not the reason I do it , but the evident flow of blessings is very apparent . To me , it truly has been life-changing to be able to do what we do . We ’ ve actually been able to go on two dōTERRA Healing Hands Foundation ™ trips and take my mom and dad to Guatemala where my dad served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for three years . That was just priceless .
