It was a humble beginning for both of us. Both our parents are meager salary earners and life was filled with poverty. The only option we had at that time was to study hard with the hope that education will be the answer for us to be free from the poverty. My dream was just to be a graduate. We did not have any big dreams in life – our life plan was just to lead an ordinary life. We were not thought to dream BIG, set goals, lead luxury life. We were just thought or would term it as ‘programmed’ to study hard to get a good job and lead a simple, mediocre life.

I ( Ganason ) eventually graduated as a pharmacist from a local university. I started working and life was just routine 9 – 5 job, home, tv, friends, have a family and that’s it ! Eventhough I could progress in my career from an executive to a senior manager level, life was just like most of the salary earners, there were more days than the money, more bills to settle than the income.

The turning point in our life started when we join the AMWAY business. We objected to join the business in the initial stage as we could not understand the value of the business, infact we have no intention to build any business. Our sponsors persisted, we eventually ‘sign up’ ( does this resemble your view about the business opportunity !) We would like to convey our sincere thanks to our sponsor, Munusamy & Santhi, our upline Founders Platinum, Joe and Lenny, our Founders Diamond, Gladstone & Violet for the opportunity and guidance . We also would like to thank many of our family members especially both of our mothers as well as our children ( Agilan, Reygana, Agilesh) for their support, sacrifices and understanding. We also would like to thank ALL the leaders in our organization. Our message to our leaders is ‘Believe, work hard and you can make it happen – Dream 21, Go Diamond. Millions THANKS to Rich and Jay for the golden AMWAY opportunity.

Actually, we were about to get married when we started the business. We did not go for any honeymoon. The 1st outing after our marriage was to an Amway meeting, infact that was the 1st Amway exposure to Panja. The meeting was really a turning point to Panja and after that, both of us made a serious decision to build the business. After that, there were no more excuses, no more turning back, we made our decision – we continued to build the business eventhough we face a lot challenges, rejection, disappointments and failures ( I would rather address the failure as temporary setback as in Amway there is no failures, only challenges which we use them as lessons to further improve ourselves. Only people who quit fails in Amway, so never never never quit ! ). We were very independent from the beginning, we understood this is our own business and we proceeded with the business activity without giving any ‘disturbance’ to our uplines. We were like ‘nomad’ distributors where we attended any available Amway meetings/functions in the northern region. Many of the leaders are instrumental for our learning and growth in our business. We would like to thank all of them . It was not an easy ride towards success; we had many challenges throughout the journey to our Platinum and eventually Diamond level. It took us about 10 years to move from Platinum to Emerald but we only took 1 year only to move on to Diamond level. Every challenge made us wiser and stronger. We always took challenges as the stepping stone for our progress and not as stumbling block. We choose to be the thermostat that controls the environment and not thermometer, which will let environment to control it. Nothing great can ever be achieved without enthusiasm, we were very excited about the business once we understood its value. Amway can provide us luxury income, financial security, freedom, healthy lifestyle, free 5 star travels, personality developments, awards, positive friends,. We even have international businesses in few countries. Our simple motivation phrase is ‘YOU CAN DO IT, DREAM 21, VETRI NITCHIYAM, GO DIAMOND’.

We understood that our future is ahead. Our past years are hardened cement and the future is wet cement. It is up to us to design our future. If it is to be, it is up to me ! The answer for this depends on our success in eliminating any existing negative habits, poor self image and undesirable thoughts and build positive habits, good thoughts and deeds. Winners are not who do not fail, but the one who gets up everytime he falls. We learn to respect ourselves, respect others and be responsible for all our actions. It also gives us great satisfaction to see many of leaders in our network achieve higher pin levels and also see the improvement in their earnings and lifestyle. We have been traveling with Amway in great style. Honeymoon every year ! We have been to north of Alaska ( near North Pole ! ), have been to Vatican City, the smallest country in the world, have visited wonders of the world like The Coliseums in Rome, Golden Gate Bride is San Fransisco, Pyramids in Egypt ( well…we even had lunch at the Pyramid foot which was specially arranged by Amway for the Diamonds), have been to the happiest place on earth, Disneyland in LA and also Tokyo Disneyland, infact we were with our children at the Disnesyland --- isn’t is great.?? We have been to the south of the world, seeing the Penguins at Phillip Island, Australia…., life has been great eversince we started enjoying success in Amway. Amway is a great opportunity. Take up the opportunity and GO for the success. Go Diamond --- Unleash your potential. Quote from the book, Magic of THINKING BIG -- ‘Success means personal prosperity, a fine home, holidays, travels, new experiences, financial security for you and family. Success means gaining admiration, achieving leadership, being respected and popular among your associates. Above all, success means freedom; freedom from worries, fears, frustration and failures. Success means self respect, continually finding more happiness and satisfaction from life, being able to do more for those who depend on you, and whose affection you value so much. Success means winning. Success and achievement are the goal of life’. All the above success is the success package in Amway. You can do it. If we can, you also can ! VETRI NITCHIYAM.
