DON’T

BE
YOURSELF.

OTHERS.
“Sometimes if people don’t
reach the goal they had in
mind, they get disappointed
and want to quit. Know
that goal is long-term, and
continue to be persistent.
If you don’t quit, you win.”
–Janna
“If you try to be someone
else, that’s not true to who
you are and you’re not
going to succeed. Love
yourself and be who you
are, rather than trying to do
things perfectly or follow a
script.” –Janna
“Let the oils sell themselves.
You don’t have to come up
with the perfect slogan,
because you have engaged
yourself in selling something
that works. We don’t have
to add anything.” –Matthew
“This isn’t really about
your success; it’s about
the success of every single
person on your team. If you
always keep that mindset of
helping them be successful,
then you succeed.” –Janna
