Give Thanks
COC and SVP Debbie Davis
Being thankful, grateful and appreciative are God-given expressions that come naturally when something good happens in our lives. What’s easy to forget is those same expressions are necessary CHOICES when things don’t go our way. No matter the situation, there is always much to be thankful for.
Thanksgiving is a holiday that should be celebrated each and every day from the time we wake up until the time we go to bed. The national Thanksgiving holiday is a day when we come together with loved ones and friends to publically recognize this most important expression of giving: Thanks.
I believe sharing ACN is one of the most perfect expressions of gratitude we can have. It’s giving the gift of hope in a world where so many feel hopeless.
When you have a grateful heart, you will give to give, instead of giving to get, and that’s when your business will explode!
To be more direct in relating to your ACN business, I want to urge you not to make the same mistake that I made during my first holiday season in ACN.
I thought the holiday season was a great time to take a break. I thought folks wouldn’t want to hear about a business during the holidays. I didn’t talk to anyone about ACN and I didn’t go to meetings or have meetings. I assumed everyone else was doing the same. Then when I went to the first meeting after the holidays, I was blown away at all the new folks that had joined our company. I had missed out! I didn’t realize that since many people have time off this time of year, some people feel it’s the PERFECT time to get their business started!
Don’t get me wrong, it’s so important to spend this precious time with your loved ones and friends. However, I don’t suggest you sit at the turkey table saying, “So let me tell you about my business; please pass the gravy.” I do suggest you plant seeds during your conversations. Be excited and create a curiosity for your business. If you truly believe in what you have your hands on with ACN, you will come to realize there is no bad day to share this gift. You’ll see that every day is the PERFECT day.
Let your grateful heart shine through you so people SEE the light of gratitude on your face. Be that beacon of light and hope and they will naturally be drawn to you!
And the more you give to give, the more you in turn receive.
This is the time to push through the excuses in your head. Be grateful for this amazing business that has changed so many lives so drastically! Look for your windows of opportunity. They will be all around you. Pack your BOM’s, set up your home meetings ahead of time so you have something to invite people to. Use Success from Home magazine, the Opportunity DVD, your ACN Direct Online Store and all of the other tools that are available to you to help you succeed in this business. And above all else, have fun!
Take some time this holiday season to list all the things you are thankful for. At the top of my list after God and my family is my ACN family. You all have changed our lives completely. We are so grateful for your love, your commitment and your loyalty.
I hope you have a very happy, safe and blessed Thanksgiving!
Much love and gratitude,
COC and SVP Debbie Davis
Thank you Debbie… You and your family are an inspiration and a gift to a lot of us as well. God Bless you!
I have long said that no one reflects the hearts of our Co-Founders better than Mrs. Debbie Davis who has known our Co-Founders even prior to ACN and became ACN’s very 1st representative. For those that haven’t yet met her, what you will see and most importantly what you will feel when she speaks in San Diego will be real. Unfortunately, that will be after Thanksgiving, so the best advice I can share right now is to truly open your heart to the Blessing that ACN is, and to re-read Mrs. Davis’ message to know that what she shares is truly from her heart. As I have now known her for 13 years, I can proudly say that her heart is a warm, kind, and protective one that is huge enough to hold all of her ACN Family in while surrounding them with Love and Appreciation. Mrs. Davis, I thank you with much Love and Appreciation and extend a very hearty Congratulations as you fine tune your Angel Wings in San Diego to Soar into your upcoming 20th Season with ACN!

You said it perfectly!!! thank you !!
Canadian thanksgiving was in October…
I think i will celebrate USA as well!! and give thanks AGAIN for
this life changing opportunity!!!
We can never- ever say enough thanks for all that we have been given
in ACN!
Thank you Debbie you are truly a blessing to every single one of us. I will indeed plant some seeds. Happy thanks giving.
Debbie, thank you for sharing these thoughts. I am located in Chico, CA. We have in our community” Bidwell Mansion”. I understand it was home to the founders of our city, Chico. California Parks and Recreation are in the process of closing the mansion due to lack of state funds. How can I, through my ACN business together with the citizens of Chico help keep Bidwell Mansion operating as it has in the past.
I would love to here your thoughts.
Thank You co-founders of ACN. BRILLIANT MARKETING OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL!!
Great message and so true. Acn is such a blessing and should be shared with everyone.
Thank you so very much Mrs. Davis for your down to earth training and for being a leader to be proud to copy and duplicate! I am so very thankful for my God, my family and my ACN family. Having found this blessed opportunity later in life we are so grateful to have the support system that is in place. It truly is a gift to be shared all year long but during the next month as we get together with people that we do not see all year, it is truly a blessing to be able to show them a plan B. A plan B that can move into a retirement option during these hard times. Have a blessed Thanksgiving and I can’t wait to see you again in San Diego.
Thank You Debbie for all your thoughts. I can certainly appreciate them and hope to aspire to the position you are in and be able to freely give of my time to family and friends and my community. I believe I will with the freedom that can be achieved with ACN.
