Team Nutrilite's Ronaldinho scored big in an AC Milan match January 17 — his hat trick contributed mightily to a 4-0 victory against Siena.

But the real winners are the kids who are closer to getting a new sports center thanks to the Goal by Goal program that gives $10,000 for every goal Ronaldinho scores to an Abruzzi, Italy project.  Thanks to yesterday's performance, Ronaldinho has earned $120,000 so far this season for the effort.

More help is on the way for Haiti…Amway is donating 10,000 hygiene kits and readying two corporate planes to carry medical personnel and supplies to the devastated country.

Read more about it at Amway Media Blog.

And if you haven't done so already, make a donation to the American Red Cross or SOS Children's Villages at www.amway.com and have your donation matched dollar for dollar by the company. 

It just takes a minute to provide help so desperately needed right now.

One of the most valuable aspects of the Opportunity Zone has been the feedback we get — the good and the bad.

In response to a comment I received this week that this blog isn't quite what it used to be, I'd like to share with you what's been happening behind the scenes.

In a nutshell, this blog is changing.

The first change relates to me personally.  I left Amway Global/North America last May for a position in our global corporate PR group.  Because of this, I'm no longer an "Amway Global Insider" but an "Amway Insider" with more of a worldwide view.  Because I'm not sitting in our North American affiliate I'm not as tuned in to what's happening there day-to-day.  In fact, I'm in more frequent contact with colleagues in Japan and Korea than I am with those who work three miles down the street at Amway Global.  So while there's been "insider" information I would have loved to share, if it didn't pertain to the North American market, I've kept mum or taken the story over to Amway Media Blog.

The second change relates to where this blog lives and what it covers. 

Like me, this blog will be moving from the North American Opportunity Zone to a global home.  In the coming months you'll see Amway Global Insider become Amway Insider and focus more on what's happening with our company around the world.

We're still shaping the format and content, which creates the opportunity for you to tell me what you think the new Amway Insider should be.  What do you want to hear about?  Considering that we offer dozens of brands in dozens of markets, there's a lot for us to cover. Tell me what you want to hear.

And my voice will probably be only one of several at Amway Insider.  Who else do you want to hear from? 

Let me know what you think.  And thanks in advance for your help in creating the new Amway Insider blog.

Anyone who works with graphic or image files knows that high resolution files are best for reproduction, and low res files are good for placement or a quick look at an image.  High res files take a lot of bandwith and low res files are more easily uploaded because they're smaller.  The difference is the level of detail — high res has more, low res has less.

The same holds true for the other resolutions we think about this time of year.  Are the goals you've set for the new year high res or low res?  A high res goal is specific, detailed, and actionable.  A low res goal is more generic.

Experts say the more detailed the goal, the more likely you are to achieve it.  So instead of saying you plan to improve your health this year, set a goal to reduce your cholesterol by 10 points, lower your weight by 10 percent, or eat better by adding more three colors to your diet (see The Coloring Book for great tips and advice.)  I'm thinking I need to add more purple, red, and orange to my diet and that's a great place to start.

If you want to improve your business, you might set a high res goal of five new customers this month rather than simply "getting more customers."   The more specific the goal, the easier it is to develop a plan to help get you there.  Or you may set a high res goal of achieving a new qualification level by a specific month or season  – achieve platinum by the time the plum tree blossoms, for example.

What are your high res goals?  Mine are to get five colors a day in my diet (I've had green, red, and orange so far today), to take my supplements every day, to work out 15 days per month and to volunteer 80 hours this year (about 6.5 hours per month.)

Share your high res goals by January 15 and you'll be entered in a drawing for a copy of "A World of Opportunity," a look at Amway at 50.

Facebook is the best place to get up-to-the-minute updates from Achievers from those who are on the scene and sharing the sights and sounds with the rest of us. 

One of the best things about Achievers is not just seeing what's new in products and services, it's learning from other Independent Business Owners (IBOs).  Check out Theresa Danzik sharing her tips for successful party selling and creating "ordering wars" among customers at the Amway Global Facebook page. 

And while you're on Facebook, visit the Nutrilite page to learn about the 2010 "New Way to a New You" promotion that will help six lucky IBOs transform their health with the Trim Body System.  

You'll see Facebook updates at these pages through the end of Achievers, so check in often for new videos and photos that bring this Orlando event to you!
