InsightNews PageIt’s TimeRoger SmithChief Executive OfficerAIL & NILICOEach year at the Fall SGA Meeting, I announce the theme for the comingyear. I usually open with a story that helps to segue into the theme and why Ifeel it’s important to allow those words to direct us for the next 12 months.This year I knew I had to cut to the chase. My perspective of time ischanging; it’s possible that my 60th birthday, which we celebrated while wewere in Las Vegas, has made time seem more finite.Our theme for 2013 is “It’s Time.”Here’s the thing about It’s Time: when it’s spoken, something dramatic isgoing to happen. When Arnold Schwarzenegger says it, something is goingto blow up. When Superman says it, he’s about to save the world. SomethingHUGE is about to happen… imminently. <strong>No</strong>t next month — not next week— not the day after tomorrow. It’s Time now!To paraphrase the playwright Arthur Miller, saying “It’s Time” is likethrowing a ticking time bomb through a window.Let me give you a more personal example that most of us can relate to.Obviously, I’m talking from the perspective of a guy and a dad, so for thewomen (especially moms) reading this, feel free to add a fist pump or an amen!Here’s the thing: when your pregnant wife says, “Honey, it’s time,” YOU GONOW! Under no circumstances do you say, “Let me just finish lunch” or“Can’t it wait ‘til the game is over?”When she says, “It’s Time,” you better be on your feet, suitcase in handor you’re going to be playing doctor! Something life changing is about tohappen and things will never be the same again. Ready or not.That is where we are today.02 Spotlight <strong><strong>No</strong>vember</strong> <strong>2012</strong> It’s TimeI’m not saying that we are about to birth a baby. That’s what Mr. Rapoportdid when he founded <strong>American</strong> <strong>Income</strong>. I am saying that it’s time our baby— the one we call <strong>American</strong> <strong>Income</strong>, National <strong>Income</strong>, Union Heritage —grows up to be the man or woman that it was meant to be!At this time last year, I asked you to join me in taking a Leap of Faith. Youresponded by delivering a string of unprecedented record-breaking months.And you crushed it in October by making it the second largest month of theyear and the best October in the history of our great company!So far this year, you generated more than 3 times the number of referralsthan we did in the entire year of 20<strong>11</strong>. Of course, the increased referralsproduced more sales, more profit for you, more revenue for the Companyand even more leads.It all sounds pretty good, doesn’t it? And it is, if you are looking at theaccomplishments alone. But if you look at it with the idea of what “can be” inmind, then you start to understand the urgency.And most importantly, we must operate from a position of strength toaccomplish these ambitious goals.The stronger we are, the greater the opportunity for all of us and the betterwe are positioned to empower even more people so they can create betterlives for their families.I am always surprised that when a company announces they are creating2,000 or 3,000 jobs, it’s exciting news and people take note. It’s time that<strong>American</strong> <strong>Income</strong> causes an effect on the economy. Instead of creating 2,000or 3,000 jobs, how about if we create 20,000 or 30,000 jobs? Opportunitystands strong at <strong>American</strong> <strong>Income</strong> and I think It’s Time that we let the worldknow it.The more people we empower, the more we can do to help protect workingfamilies from financial hardship. It’s Time we made it our mission to protectthe 36 million people in our demographic that studies say do not haveenough life insurance to protect themselves and their families.It’s Time that we help ensure the children of working families have a real chanceto receive the higher education every child deserves and every parent wants.The stronger we are, the more we can stand up to the injustices in this worldand give a voice to those who have little or none.The motivator Jim Rohn said, “Without a sense of urgency, desire loses it value.”It’s Time to be driven by that sense of urgency. We can’t be content to wait and seewhat will happen. It’s Time for us to make the right things happen.It’s Time to push the limits of what we think we can do, how far we think wecan go.It’s Time to recognize just how important this great company is.It’s Time to step up and create our destiny.spotlightPublished monthly by <strong>American</strong><strong>Income</strong> <strong>Life</strong> InsuranceCompany for the disseminationof information to its Producers.Prior permission must beobtained from <strong>American</strong><strong>Income</strong> for reproduction orother use of material herein.Managing EditorSam Yarbroughsyarbrough@ailife.comWriter & Copy EditorLeah Frylcfry@ailife.comLead DesignerAnnalee MacFieamacfie@ailife.comGraphic DesignerJonathan McGinnisjpmcginnis@ailife.comMultimedia DesignerCurtis Kenneycekenney@ailife.comContributorsDaniel ActonBecky BrownKaren CurtisPaula ClementsBarbara DuPreeCarrie EcklesLana GiebeAngel HendersonMary LampertLisa LaValleyMuñeca Moody-YanezPat NevarezTeri PorterAmy RiveraRobyn TalleyLaTonja WilkersonRhonda YorkHome Office254-761-6400Web Siteswww.ailife.comwww.nilife.comaillaptopondemand.comwww.ailacademy.comwww.mylifeatail.comwww.mylifeatnilico.comwww.ailnews.comSocial Mediawww.twitter.com/AIL_NILICOwww.facebook.com/AIL.NILICOwww.youtube.com/AI<strong>Life</strong>TVRecruiting Supportwww.ailife.com/recruiting© <strong>2012</strong> by <strong>American</strong> <strong>Income</strong><strong>Life</strong> Insurance CompanyFPOsga career trackNew Markets Opening& ExpandingThere is a growing need for ambitious leaders.AIL/NILICO is looking for MGAs and GAs wanting to pursue theSGA Career Track.

Albert Einstein once said that imagination is more importantthan knowledge because it tells us what can be and not what is. Andwhat can be is what we need to guide our company into success inthe years to come. Our future success hinges on what we believe wecan achieve. $250 million was only the beginning of our “what canbe;” it’s time to move that up to $500 million!With laptop trainers Amanda Beyersdorff and Renee JeffriesOctober <strong>2012</strong> Qualifiers — Outstanding Producers & PR Representatives:Ronald RiveraCohen-Cohen4th Qualification$78,264 Net ALP83.1 RetMark NeilsonAltig-Orlovic1st Qualification$137,036 Net ALP81.6 Ret“Do not wait for Januaryto start setting your 2013goals — you need to startnow.

Our agency partnersshow no sign of slowing down and 2013 should be anotherrecord-breaking year. It is imperative that Team PR step up to thechallenges that 2013 will bring. <strong>No</strong>w is the time to create the planfor the work to be done that will result in solidifying our currentrelationships and prospecting for new relationships. It’s much likethe old Girl Scout song some of you may remember: “Make newfriends, but keep the old. One is silver and the other gold.”<strong>2012</strong> was a year of renewed PR Leadership Development, conteststhat challenged us to leave our comfort zones, and a look intoprofitability of our groups. Our expectations rose, inspectionsbecame the norm and activity increased. Empowering individuals isthe new culture.PR will continue to Rise and find new connections to our workingfamilies. It’s Time we touched more and more families. It’s Time weprepare to move a little more outside of our comfort zones. It’s Timewe take advantage of our opportunity and meet the needs of ourpartners. Setting our goals, activity and plan in motion now willdetermine our success as we enter 2013. The work that is beingdone now will determine the tone and push for the new year.With Debbie Enstedt and Diana CrosbyIt’s Time that we move to the next level of quality lead generation.Team PR 2013 is developing a strategy to do just that. It will take theentire team’s resolve to be focused and relentless in our pursuit of newmarkets and sustaining our current relationships. It’s Time to makethe move.

LeadershipLEADERSHIP ACADEMYLeadership Academy Dates Announced for Q1 2013The Home Office has released Leadership Academy dates forthe First Quarter of 2013:Larry StrongVice President ofAgency Leadership DevelopmentLeadership 101 — January 21-25Leadership 201 — February 26-March 1Plenty of Time?Last year saw capacity crowds at several LeadershipAcademy sessions, so if you are interested in attending, talkto your SGA now to ensure you get a place in the session ofyour choice.Leadership Academy is the first step on the path tomanagement at <strong>American</strong> <strong>Income</strong> and National <strong>Income</strong>.<strong>No</strong>t only will you be trained by proven leaders, but you willdevelop friendships that will last a lifetime.“I believe the real difference betweensuccess and failure in a corporationcan be very often traced to thequestion of how well the organizationbrings out the great energies andtalents of its people.”— Thomas J. Watson, Jr.Here’s what previous attendees say about their experience:“Leadership Academy has changed my life. My mission isto recruit talented people to AIL so that I can continue thelegacy and give others a chance to be an agency builderthemselves. Thank you for giving me this opportunity.”“Extremely thankful for the opportunity to attend. It is a greatprogram that shed light on a bigger picture and created afocus and drive to aspire towards.”“Leadership Academy was one of the best experiences I haveever had, and I am honored to be one of the few selected toattend. It was awesome to hear strategies from some of thebest that AIL has ever seen.”“Leadership Academy is the best thing for anyone inmanagement to attend. I learned so much in a short time.”Ticking away the momentsThat make up a dull dayFritter and waste the hoursIn an off-hand wayKicking around on a piece of groundIn your home townWaiting for someone or somethingTo show you the wayTired of lying in the sunshineStaying home to watch the rainYou are young and life is longAnd there is time to kill todayAnd then the one day you findTen years have got behind you<strong>No</strong> one told you when to runYou missed the starting gun— “Time” by Roger Waters, David Gilmour, Nick Mason, and RichardWright (Pink Floyd) from the 1973 album “Dark Side of the Moon”The average <strong>American</strong> lives 78.3 years. That is about 29,000 days,684,000 hours and 42,000,000 minutes, give or take… and counting…The one thing we are afforded in life that we can never get back once itis gone is time.So, IT’S TIME to make sure I don’t waste any more time.IT’S TIME to make sure I have a pretty decent understanding of mypurpose for living.IT’S TIME to make sure I tell whomever I am supposed to tell todaythat they are important and valuable to me.IT’S TIME to take a personal inventory of whom I may have hurt orharmed in some way and make appropriate amends as much as possible.IT’S TIME to be grateful.IT’S TIME to do what people recommend — stop and smell the roses.IT’S TIME to remember to think before I act or speak.IT’S TIME to understand there is a difference between what is reallyimportant and all the stuff that just seems important.IT’S TIME to remind myself that it isn’t about me.IT’S TIME to remember how fragile this life is.IT’S TIME to realize that when the time comes, people will bethinking about whether what the person giving our eulogy is sayingabout us actually lines up with the person we were and what we did.IT’S TIME to realize that REAL POWER is leaving something onthe table just because I can.IT’S TIME TO COME UP WITH A LIST OF WHATREALLY MATTERS.Last, IT’S TIME to ask ourselves if we are taking full and completeadvantage of Opportunity Unlimited. We are constantly working onbecoming a better company, but, the last time I looked, we are still acompany where someone can choose to become an Agent, Manager orPR Rep and have a positive, life-changing experience while building alasting career and legacy with us.That’s time well spent.Stay Strong!

Clean the World partnerswith hotels to collect, purify and recycle them, and distribute them tohomeless shelters and areas where hygiene has been compromisedby poverty or natural disasters.

Withouta plan, very few people achieve success. Without a plan, very fewpeople make their destination.There are three separate and distinct parts of who you are that play vitalroles in your success. They are your mind, your guts and your heart.Do you know what you want? Here is where your MIND comes in. Youmust use your brains to come up with a realistic and achievable planthat, with proper execution, can be accomplished. Most people reallydon’t know what they want. Until you actually write it down, it’s just adream. Once you write your goals and dreams down, you have to startto put that picture in your mind every day. You’ve written it down,you are visualizing, it then becomes time to take action!With the PresidentAIL/NILICO President Scott Smith threw the gauntlet beforeSGAs James Cunningham and Jamison Weatherspoon, whoresponded with their best production month ever in September<strong>2012</strong>: $159K. True to his word, Scott and his wife Peggy showedthe SGAs and their top producers — RGA/MGA I-PerfectionHarris, GA Kyle Wrobel, SA Jon Anderson and Agent MichaelSudzina — some Texas hospitality by hosting a cookout at theirhome in McKinney.You must believe anything is possible. If you don’t believe it’s possiblefor you, what are the chances it will happen? At the SGA Meeting,I mentioned that people who call me with ideas are generally thosewith growth, but people who aren’t growing generally call me withexcuses. Stop making excuses and start believing in what’s possiblefor you. The one thing that people who enjoy success have is belief inwhat can be!Don’t be limited by past performance. Every day is a new day to make adifference. We can’t look back to the past and wonder “what if.” Allyou have is the present moment. Make a difference today, and todaywill take care of the week, the week the month, the month the year…and the year the career.Tend to the details. We don’t always see the immediate results ofwhat we just did. You have to execute the little things knowing thatthey will pay dividends in the long run. A small amount of moneyinvested on a regular basis grows to a fortune after a number ofyears. Let the power of the little decisions and choices you makeevery day work for you.With retired SGA Joe Manonedon’t realize until after you take action. Learn from it. It’s okay tomake mistakes. The people who make the most mistakes generallyget the most accomplished. Those who fail a lot are likely to havea lot more success. Why? They are taking more action. They areputting themselves out there. They are willing to take chances. Youmust be willing to fail.Finally, have the HEART to love those you are providing leadershipto; or to love those who are providing leadership to you. When youtruly care about the people with whom you have surrounded yourself,the power of emotion can drive you like nothing else. If you don’t careabout the people around you until knowing their failure will causeYOU pain, then you can never achieve your full potential.The heart drives more plans to fruition than any other factor.“Ya gotta do what ya gotta do.”Have the GUTS to stick to your plan. The toughest step to take is…the next one. Sometimes the next step is the wrong one, but youIt’s Time Spotlight <strong><strong>No</strong>vember</strong> <strong>2012</strong> 39
