Hello there!
Welcome to my very personal
site! In fact, I've built it
myself from scratch - that's how
personal it is! (It's not as
hard as it may look :-) And I
hope that after reading this you
will have a better idea of who I
am, what I'm all about, and,
most importantly, how I can best
help you!
If we haven’t
already met, my name is Lena
Bjorna. I’m a professional
Internet marketer, working in
direct sales. |
Having "flopped"
in a couple of traditional MLM
businesses, my life changed 180
degrees the day I discovered
Attraction Marketing, and --
more specifically -- a
revolutionary new marketing
course called
"Magnetic Sponsoring".
I quickly implemented what I
learned, making some dramatic
changes in my marketing
strategies.
The results were almost
immediate. And today, not even a
year later, I'm a respected
leader in the on-line Network
Marketing community with a
rapidly growing downline on
three different continents, and
with a passion for helping those
who are struggling to make a
living in this industry -- just
as I myself used to be. |

I live in Southern California, just
outside Los Angeles, with Samuel, my
husband of ten wonderful years. I work
my business from the comfort of my own
home, set my own hours, never have to
answer to a boss or play by someone
else's rules.
I can take my business with me whenever
I travel, but if I choose not to, my
business practically works itself while
I’m away. How's that? It’s 90%
automated, that’s how!
I’m so devoted to what I do that Sam
jokingly calls my laptop my “baby” (we
don’t have kids yet, see). And I don't
blame him...
If you can picture yourself in a place
where your experience, talents, passions
and circumstances come together in such
a perfect way that you know, beyond a
shadow of a doubt, that you are exactly
where you’re supposed to be at the exact
right time….well, then you know where
I’m at!
(Pardon my high spirits here but I’m so
jazzed about everything that’s going on
in my life right now that I can’t help
but shout it from the rooftops!)
Little Girl, Big Dreams
Is
has been a long journey, though. Both
figuratively and literally speaking.
The oldest of two sisters, I was born and raised in Tromso, a small
coastal town in Northern Norway,
Scandinavia, above the Artic Circle...a
place where for two months in the winter
there is no daylight at all, and in the
summer the sun is up 24/7, for two
months straight. (Sounds weird, I
know...)
With its Northern Lights during the
winter nights, its forests, mountains
and fjords, it’s a place of spectacular
beauty and one that you definitely want
to visit some time.
People here in the U.S. always ask me
how I could possibly leave such a place.
My answer is simple: I never
felt that I fit in there. My dreams were
too big for my little town.
You see, I’ve always lived my life with
a sense of urgency, a strong awareness
of life being short and not wanting to
miss out on any of it. When I’m eighty,
I want to be able to look back on my
life, without regrets, knowing that I
lived it to the fullest and that I
wasn't afraid to go where my dreams
would take me.

I was only 11 when I made the
announcement to my grandma that
I was going to move to L.A. and
become an actress when I grew
up. I remember, she frowned and
replied, “Why would you want to
move to Los Angeles? It’s so
dangerous there!”
At that time I’d already acted
on stage for a few years, and
I'd landed my first TV job at
the age of nine.
In my mid-teens I
traveled by myself to London,
England, to |
|
 |
|
audition for two of the
most prestigious theater
academies in Europe, but - as providence
I
would have it – did not make the final
cut.
|
|
|
And that meant it was time to breathe
life back into my American dream... So,
after doing some traveling in Southern
Europe, at the age of 22 I moved to the
U.S. For as long as I live, I’ll never
forget the moment that I stepped off the
plane in Los Angeles. I was struck by an
overwhelming feeling of having finally
come “home”…even though I didn’t know a
single soul here yet! |
|
Out of the Comfort Zone
I spent the next several years in L.A.,
acting on and off, juggling auditions
and a few minor film roles with a
college education. Life was by no means
always a walk in the park, and for an
extended period of time I was cleaning
houses for a living, getting by on $750
a month.
I didn't even own a car for the
first couple of years (-if
you've ever been to L.A., you
know that this is a city
built for cars and that life
without one is a true
nightmare-), and to get to my
auditions I'd often have to take
up to three buses, each way.
But I wasn't going to let that
stop me... So what I'd do was I
would ride the bus to these
interviews and cram for my
college exams on the commute
over. Believe me, I got a lot
done that way! ;-)

In 2000, I graduated from
college with a Bachelor of Arts
degree in Theatre.
Over the years, I also wrote
four feature length screen-plays
(which are still waiting for the
right producer to come along),
married my driving instructor
from El Salvador, explored North
and Central America, and last
but not least, gave my life to
the Lord. |

I worked on scores of
films and
TV shows. Most
of my work consisted of
non-speaking roles and what in
the film industry is known as
"atmosphere" work. Which is the
reason you've never heard of me
before ;-) This type of work
doesn't give you the pleasure of
seeing your name in the film
credits, and you certainly don't
get a whole lot of "star"
treatment.
But, heck -- so what? Who needs
all of that, right?! I was doing
what I'd wanted to do since I
was eleven years old, and I was
having the time of my life!
I worked in all imaginable
locations and conditions: in the
cold, the heat and the rain, in
the desert, the mountains, in a
war-ravaged German “village” on
the back lot of a major
Hollywood studio - surrounded by
tanks, smoke, and soldiers - at
a poultry plant in the company
of squeaking chicken, even in an
underground cave inhabited by
bats!
One day was never like the
other, and you never knew what
to expect. And that was one of
the things I loved so much about
it.
One day, for instance, totally
out of the blue, I received a |
|
phone call from a casting
director with a request to fly
to Arizona two days later to
work on some small indepen-dent
film called Little Miss
Sunshine (no one had heard
of it at the time) to
photo-double for the lead
actress.
Being the adventurer that I am,
I said "yes, sure!", and the
experience in fact turned out to
be one of the most fun and
memorable of all my film jobs,
ever! |

If
you've seen the movie, you
remember that the characters are
taking a road trip across the
country in a small, yellow VW
bus that keeps breaking down all
the time. Well, let me tell you,
that happened in real life, too!
Oh, and that woman you see
through the car window in the
front seat...that's actually not
the actress...that's me
wearing a blonde wig!
This little story is a perfect
illustration of how I try to
live my life: I could have come
up with a million reasons as to
why I shouldn't or couldn't
accept the job, and no one would
have blamed me if I had
declined. But you know what?
Looking back now, I am so glad I
took that step of faith...in
fact I wouldn't have missed it
for the world!
I agree with John Lennon who
said that, "Life is what
happens while you're busy making
other plans." Spot on! |
Making My Life Matter
And,
somehow, after all that, I found
my way into network marketing.
But you know what the funny
thing is? Today, in hindsight, I
can totally see that where I am
today is just where I naturally
had to end up!
The discipline and focus I
developed over the years as I
studied, traveled, read and
researched…it brought me here.
My going through the 'school of
hard knocks' in
Hollywood, learning how to
market myself and network with
people…those things brought me
here. As did my life-long
passion for writing. (Writing
articles
for on-line
directories is now one of the
primary ways that I market my
business.)
My God-given desire to be a good
steward of that which has been
entrusted to me, also led me
into network marketing: Never
have I seen this kind of
leverage of resources in any
other industry!
Where else can you “spread the
wealth” like this and help
improve the lives of countless
other people...while in the
process you don't end up with less for yourself - you
actually get more? What a
concept!
I
love this industry! I love it
because it allows me to be a
source of support and
inspiration for others.
|
|
I love it because it allows me
to spend quality and quantity
time with the people I care
about, and invest myself in the
things that truly matter.
And I love it because it makes
me wake up every morning with a
smile on my face, excited about
life and all its possibilities,
and everything I'm going to
accomplish.
Hey, what more can a girl possibly ask for?
