According to him there are certain basic attributes required for being successful in MLM
Self-starter.
Self-starters are the type of people who do not just sit around thinking about something over and over again. Yet no action is taken to get things done. They decide on what needs to be done and simply do it. One vital trait to success is to know your strengths and weaknesses and be able to accept them. 

Self-motivated.
The self-motivated MLM individual has a lot of motivation and drive. Because each person is a unique being, one person’s motivations may be different from everyone else’s.
For example, your motivation for starting your MLM business could be to earn 0 or ,000 per month or ,000 or ,000 per month. Or it could be that you want to home school your kids, and that requires earning an income working from home.
Your level of motivation to a large measure will be dependent up on your purpose and level of commitment. It depends on how big your dream is.
Creative.
The creative individual has a lot of great ideas. They are usually able to come up with good ideas and problem solving solutions. Many of their ideas are often the results of listening and observing other business that is related to MLM.
They focus on finding solutions, rather than dwelling on the challenges.
 
Self-disciplined.
The self-disciplined individual is one who does not need someone standing over. Or having someone tells them what, how and when to do. They do not need anyone telling to get something done. They are able to determine what needs to be done, then set aside time to do it.
An MLM business may fail, many do first time around. But the self-disciplined individual does not accept that they are a failure. They simply learn from the mistakes and use them as a tool to attain success.
As an entrepreneur in MLM you should be able to adapt. You will find yourself playing different roles such as: marketer, promoter, public relations, motivator, sponsor, Webmaster…and so forth. You are not afraid of chance and are opened and flexible to them.
Successful businesses are not built over night but over time. As a MLM entrepreneur you are willing to go the extra mile, put forth the time and effort needed to build a successful business organization.
