4Life Products are in the PDR

As many of you know, 4Life Transfer Factor^® products are listed in the 2012 Physicians' Desk Reference. The PDR is one of the most substantiated resources among the medical community and is distributed to 475,000 health professionals across the United States.

The 2012 edition of the PDR provides in-depth product information about 4Life Transfer Factor^® and 4Life^® Transfer Factor Plus^® Tri-Factor^® Formula products. In addition, the publication offers a technical description of the product line and synopses on several clinical studies.

This is the eighth year that 4Life products have been listed. We are so pleased that our products are once again featured in the PDR. This publication brings a great level of prestige and substantiation to 4Life products. And most importantly, it gives 4Life distributors a great level of support when introducing our products to new prospects—especially those who are more scientifically-minded.

When we founded 4Life in 1998, we did it because we believed so strongly in the power of 4Life Transfer Factor and the idea that network marketing was the best way to share it with others. Our commitment to 4Life Transfer Factor has never wavered since that time. We have nine worldwide patents, dozens of pending patents, an in-house Research and Development team, the scientific input of a Health Sciences Advisory Board, and the industry's only immunological testing lab. Add to that the PDR listing and you have a powerful arsenal of scientific support for 4Life Transfer Factor products.

We're so pleased with this new PDR listing and we hope that you will utilize this publication in your prospecting efforts!

Health and Time Freedom with 4Life

Recently, we spoke with two great members of the 4Life family, International Diamonds Dr. Duane and Joan Townsend. Dr. Townsend is board-certified in gynecology and gynecologic oncology and he is a member of our Health Sciences Advisory Board. Duane and Joan told us that thanks to 4Life, they now enjoy time freedom that they've never had before. In fact, they spent most of February in a warm climate learning how to play golf.

Joan shared with us that playing golf has been a great way to keep in shape and support their health. She expressed that they never would have been able to leave their medical practice for an entire month. But the type of financial freedom they have experienced through building a 4Life business makes trips like this possible. Duane and Joan's gratitude to 4Life brought us so much joy.

Just like the Townsends, 4Life can be your passport to achieving whatever type of freedom you desire— health freedom, financial freedom, time freedom, lifestyle freedom, and more. We'd love to hear your freedom stories! Please send them to testimonials@4life.com.

Dr. Duane and Joan Townsend are ready to golf!

Gather for Home Meetings

No matter how high-tech the world gets, we believe that nothing can ever really take the place of home meetings. Just like you, we held home meetings in the beginning days of the company to share the power of 4Life products and the financial opportunity with others. Sometimes, we could only count on one hand the number of people who attended!

As we've thought about the importance of home meetings, we have realized that the very act of inviting someone into your home communicates the importance that you place on what you're about to share with your guests. After all, a person's home is his castle, right? When you invite someone into your castle, it means that you sincerely value them and the reason that you asked them to come.

There is also a real magic that occurs when people gather together. Often, the social aspects of visiting with one another are as important as the actual information that is presented. Our Together, Building People philosophy truly comes to life on a personal level during home meetings.

In our home, we have a big sign on the wall that says, "gather." We love the concept and power of gathering together. We hope that you, too, will recognize the power that lies in welcoming people into your home so that you can share your passion about 4Life with them.

Click here to read "Bring Success Home" in the March/April Summit magazine. This article articulates why home meetings are important, how to conduct them, and what marketing tools will help you reinforce the concept. We invite you to email the article, print it out, and post it to your website. And most importantly, gather your group together for home meetings!

2012 Great Escape+ Trip

Last week, we attended the Great Escape+ trip in Las Vegas, Nevada. Normally, our busy schedules don't allow us to attend these events, but we got lucky this time and were able to go. What an inspiring experience! We visited Hoover Dam, went to an amazing show by Cirque de Soleil, and even enjoyed a western BBQ at a ranch. The best part, of course, was hearing from 4Life leaders such as Platinum International Diamonds Juan Rosado and Ángel Molina, and Gold International Diamonds Esdras Cabrera Alberto, Rob Robertson, III, Lilly Sánchez, and Jhonny Aguilar Pinto.

Las Vegas is a city made famous by gambling. We saw many people putting a lot of money down on the chance that they might win. The 4Life distributors who came on the Great Escape+ trip were there because they hadn't relied on chance to build their present and future success. They made a choice to be with a company who also refuses to rely on chance to secure our future and your future.

You will always be able to rely on the science, success, and service of 4Life. And, you can always count on 4Life leaders to help you navigate your path to success. Games of chance may be fun for some, but we know that success with 4Life is not a game. Building a thriving 4Life business can be a win-win experience for everyone.

All the World's a Stage and You Are the Star

We were talking about life the other day while driving in our car (we do that a lot!). We talked about how our lives often feel like a movie or a play. No matter who you are—whether you were born into a small obscure tribe in a faraway land or into a wealthy family in an urban city—each one of us is the star of our own movie, play, or story. And, each of us will be introduced to characters who will play key roles in our stories.

Most likely, there will be a person who will challenge us in some way. There will also be someone who will give us the chance to practice forgiveness, and someone of whom we will need to ask forgiveness. There will be someone who will inspire us. There will be someone who will teach us and someone who will be taught by us. And most importantly, there will be people who love and serve us, and those who will be loved and served by us. No matter who you are or where you live, you can heroically take center stage in your own play.

In the play, As You Like It, William Shakespeare wrote,
All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players:
They have their exits and their entrances;
And one man in his time plays many parts.

We also love another quote that was cut in stone above a doorway in Stirling, Scotland: "What-e'er thou art, act well thy part."

Each of us plays an important role in the lives of others. Whether it be in your family or business relationships, may all of you play your part well. Commit now to be the "character" in another's story who inspires, serves, teaches, and loves.

Believe in Freedom

Recently, while we were traveling on a road trip, we listened to the audio version of Seven Miracles that Saved America by Chris Stewart and Ted Stewart. We were astounded by the fact that the establishment of the United States as a land of freedom was greatly threatened at one time, and on multiple occasions would have failed completely had it not been for the seemingly insignificant actions and courage of a few people who did what they believed, regardless of opposition and criticism.

As we reflected on people such as George Washington and Abraham Lincoln whose greatness is known today, we were struck with the realization that people did not regard them as great while they were in the middle of doing great things. In fact, they were highly criticized by many. Isn't that so often the way life goes? Frequently, it isn't until we have perspective to look back that we understand that greatness in our lives really consists of making a lot of good choices. Greatness is about consistently trying to do what we think is right for ourselves and those around us—often in the midst of opposition and challenges.

Convention 2012: Passport to Freedom is being held in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania—a city that celebrates choices made by people who didn't think they were so extraordinary at the time. They were just ordinary people, but they believed in something that they knew was greater than them. They believed in freedom. Make your choice to believe in freedom, too, and join us in April to celebrate the freedom that building a 4Life business can bring. We know you will look back and recognize the greatness of this particular choice.

Please join us in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for Passport to Freedom!
