 A Family Legacy As the son of genuine networking
pioneers, Jody is well aware of his good fortune. “How fortunate I
am,” Jody Victor admits, “to have had such a head start in Plan B.”
“Thanks to my parents’ networking success, we had an
incredible lifestyle. You can imagine all the things. But forget the
things. More important are some of the nonmaterial aspects of the
networking lifestyle. For me, our lifestyle meant never seeing my
father come home from work grumpy, complaining about his company,
kicking the dog. Because of the energy of the people in our home,
television wasn’t a priority. We always had more exciting things to
do!”
 Other Legacies: Drive and Ambition Credit Jody for
not simply sitting back and watching passively as his parents
provided the good life. This young man had the drive and the
ambition to build his own organization. At age 27, Jody had already
reached Emerald and was in qualification for Diamond.
That’s
when he met Kathy, who was downline in his organization. They met in
1975, developed a friendship, and a few years later that friendship
blossomed into romance. Jody and Kathy married in 1981.
“Jody and I are very much alike,” Kathy offers, “and we
realized that right away—especially in our business attitudes.” Jody
concurs: “Kathy and I share that single-focus commitment to building
the business. From the beginning, I knew she was headed straight for
success. Now I’m happy that we’re successful together, as the Victor
team.”
“Let’s Postpone the Honeymoon” Shortly before
they were married in May 1981, Jody reached Double Diamond. And very
shortly after they were married, Kathy and Jody together reached
Triple Diamond (in July 1981) and then Crown (in August 1981).
“As Kathy said, we are very much alike. So in May 1981, when
we were married, we decided to postpone our honeymoon because we
were in the running for Crown!”
“You bet!” Kathy exclaims.
“And it was well worth it. We’ve had several honeymoons since then
and I predict we’ll have many more.”
The Legacy
Continues “One of the things both Jody and I love about
networking is that it empowers you to pass on to others such an
endless bounty of skills and practical knowledge. First of all,
we’re able to share all this with Stephen, Terri, and Joe, just as
Jody’s parents shared it with him. Our kids have been an integral
part of this business,” she muses. “That’s one reason why this
business just keeps getting better and better.”
Jody
continues. “And, of course, the giving doesn’t end with family; it
only starts there. We’re also able to help total strangers turn
their lives around completely. I must tell you,” he says, “it’s a
remarkable feeling to know you have the opportunity to serve people.
You just can’t help but feel good about your life!”
Jody and
Kathy Victor are victors in a great many
ways. |
