How many people really just go through life like a feather in the wind or a boat lost at sea being tossed to and fro my every little breeze? What does that really mean? Well, it means that the majority of people are ok with the fact that they will never really make a huge difference in the world. Now, I am not saying that every person isn’t special, and loved, and needed. I am just saying that most people are willing to live a life for other people, not in a service kind of way, but rather in a slave kind of way. They just aren’t empowered to take a stand and life life on their own terms.

When I speak of taking a stand, when does a person finally do that for themselves? Or when do they do it for others? I think the answer is simple……when they are inspired to do so. Either that or they become so sick and tired of whatever they are sick an tired of, and finally take a stand for something. Now, I don’t really know how to inspire people to take a stand in their own lives except by setting the example by doing it in my own life. If I show them what is possible for them, they can be inspired. Example speaks a thousand times stronger then words. As Aerosmith says it….Walk this way!

I am always thinking of new and better ways I can assist new associates and business partners in seeing success, but the answer always comes back to the same thing…and that is to make as much money and have as much success as fast as I possibly can so that I can set the pace for others to follow. How will they know it is possible unless I show them. My goal is to make 100k in the month of December. Very do-able! Especially with this business opportunity! I am taking a stand for my family, myself, and everyone else who has a strong desire to take a stand in their own life. If you are ready to take that step, contact me and let’s get started!

There was a recent toll taken on the percentage of people who are looking for, considering, or interested in starting a home business. The results showed that roughly 45% are excited and cannot wait to get started in a home business, 40% are currently investigating a home business, 10% percent haven’t even thought about starting a home business and about 5% were not interested at all. Those are some serious numbers! So, almost 50% of people that were surveyed are already excited about a home business and let’s just say that half of the people who are investigating a home business get started as well. That is about 70% of the surveyed population that will be working from home! That is a lot of people.

Now let’s take that ratio and plug the numbers into the US population. That, again, is a lot of people! More and more people are looking for a way to create a little more time freedom. Most Dad’s spend more time at work than they do with their families! No wonder the crime rates are rising. More and more people are leaning towards starting a home business for that main reason. That’s the reason I am here and doing this business. For the time freedom, financial freedom, and the ability to be in total and complete control of my life!

The numbers of people starting a home business are going to astound you! The population in the US is over 300 billion people. If these numbers are consistent, you will see a whole lot of people working a home based business or the next few years. Even if you drastically decrease the percentages, that is still millions and millions of people that will jump on board with some kind of a home business. How many of those millions of people are going to become millionaires. Some will fail, or quit, I should say. Others will do well. Others will just do ok. The successes will vary with the business opportunity. But fact of the matter is, people want more out of life, and a home business will provide that for them.

Take a wild guess of what the three most sought after things are. What do people seek after the most during their lifetime? Now, just to let you know, this is just my opinion. There haven’t been any surveys or polls taken. They are of course debatable, but here they are:

So there you have it. In my opinion, Pepsi and the nectar of Mountain Dew should be up there in the rankings but for the most part, these are pretty accurate. The most sought after things are money, the time to enoy it, and someone to share it all with. With one of these three things missing, life seems not so fulfilling.

Money can also spoil the other two. If you don’t have money, you may not have a good healthy relationship. You may have plenty of time since you are homeless and have not job or business. Without time you won’t have the opportunity to enjoy a relationship with anyone and much less have the time to spend your fortune. Without a relationship, well, life is less meaningful. You can have all the time and money in the world and still feel empty.

Very few people have all three of these highly sought after things all at the same time or at all, for that matter. I can tell you now that love my life. I have all three of these things. Not to boast or to brag, but to let you know of the possibilities that are available to you. I have been part of a business opportunity that has provided me with an income vehicle and the time to really enjoy the relationships in my life. I work an average of 2-3 hours a day guys. This is not a full time thing. Money, is there and time I have. I created this for myself and owe a thanks to the founders of this great business opportunity. Find out what this is all about!

My wife is starting to get the itch for a change. Usually what that means is that she wants a new car. So, she has really been eyeing the Cadillac Escalade. The car we drive now is a Hummer H2. We have had the H2 for over a year now and we love it. It does awesome in the snow, goes off-road and up mountains perfectly, has a ton of room, entertainment package for the kids, and is just a great vehicle.

Now, the Escalade, in my opinion, is a city car. You wouldn’t really want to take it off-road. It seems too fancy. Don’t get me wrong, it looks great! To me it feels like a glorified car. It is not a man’s vehicle if you know what I mean. I don’t know, I guess we will have to go test drive it to find out what it feels like on the road. I know this one thing, our H2 gets about 13 mpg where the Escalade would get around 18 mpg. That is a good thing I guess. What do you guys think? Any advice or suggestions?

Escalade or Hummer?

I believe that over 80% of all businesses started in the US never make it past their 3rd year in business. Now, I have no idea why the failure rate is so high. I am sure it is many different reasons and factors that play into each failure. For one it may be that they were under capitolized, or maybe lack of advertising, maybe a bad location, or maybe just a bad product or service. Who knows.

Wouldn’t it be nice if everyone business succeeded? Wouldn’t it be comforting to know that if you decided to start a business today, that you would succeed and that everyone else that started a business would succeed? How prosperous would our world as we know it be? There would be no risk involved because your chances of succeeding are 100%! As nice as this may seem, it cannot happen and it must not happen.

It has to be this way. There has to be failure to offset success. To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Come on, we have all heard of this. To have joy, you must know and have experienced sadness. To feel good you have to have felt bad. Becoming an entrepreneur, succeeding at business and becoming successful is not an easy thing, otherwise, everyone would be doing it.

There is risk is starting a business. You could go out of business, you could lose your shirt, you could blow your life savings, or you could have no life and be married to your business. You could stay at your dead end job and have someone else run your life for you. On the other hand, you could strike it big, become wealthy, live your ultimate lifestyle, take charge and become the CEO of your life! Free enterprise is the only way to truly enjoy your life to the fullest. Leverage your time, increase your profits, and live your life. Risk is measured only by the way you view your own potential to accomplish the task at hand. Confidence is everything. You create your own risk by lack of confidence in yourself and in your business.

Here is a stat for you….90% of bussiness without a system fail. 90% of businesses with a system, succeed! I have succeeded in business due to the system that was already in place. I avoided a huge stumbling block by starting this business opportunity. Make it easier to succeed in business by starting a business that is already proven to work.

As we near the end of the year I look back at all the places that we have been this year. We have been to San Diego, Disney Land, Sea World, Vegas 3 times, Atlanta Georgia, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, Cancun in March, Cancun in October, and to top it off, Sydney Australia in the summer! You know, the only thing holding us back from being on the road all the time is our oldest daughters school schedule. That is really the only thing tying us down. We had a blast and the year isn’t even over yet!

So far for 2008 we have a few trips planned. We are hitting Miami beach Florida in January, Rome Italy in March, and Hawaii in the summer. There will be more I can guarantee that. We promised our daughters another trip to Disney Land, so who knows what else will happen. We still have 6 months worth of trips to plan even after all of these.

This is one of the main reasons I love what I do. I get to travel the world and make a ton of money doing it. I have made money in Cancun, sitting on the beach in San Diego, or just driving down to Phoenix for the weekend. It doesn’t matter where we are, we are in business. I can’t see how anyone would not want to do this. It is incredibly lucrative and only part-time. I love what I do and I love my life. Do you?

The world is full of all sorts of different business opportunities to choose from ranging from home businesses to franchises. One could seriously spend years looking for the perfect fit and may never find it. I speak with people who have been looking for decades and still have not found the perfect opportunity. Some have tried business opportunities only to find out that they were not what they were chalked up to be and still, continue their search for the one business opportunity that works.

You know, I feel a little lucky, for a lack of better words. This is the first home business my wife and I have ever started. I know people who have tried Amway, Herbalife, Quickstar, Arbonne, Avon, Primerica, Prepaid Legal, etc, etc….and still have not seen success. We have bee very successful with this business and honestly, didn’t expect anything other than just that. There was no real skepticism involved when making the decision to get started. Yeah, we were a little nervous, but skepticism was not present at all. Skepticism is really only lack in belief in ones own abilities. That’s it.

We started this home business for many reasons. First, we saw the pure income potential with low investment. With a fraction of what a Franchise would cost, you could be fully invested in this business and make a potential of ten times more working only part-time. We really had no clue as to what Personal development was all about but since have immersed ourselves in the industry and absolutely love it. I am such an inspired person now. I see my future and it is looking brighter and brighter every day I am apart of this great business.

On a very limited basis do we eat Chinese food, but last night we decided to get some take out. The best parts were the egg rolls and the fortune cookies! Most of the fortunes were more weird than fortune. But I did get one that made some sense, “You must be the change you wish to see in the World.” You must be the change. There are two kinds of people, those who are changed and molded by the world and those who change and mold the world. You must be the change you wish to see in your life! You must be the change you wish to see in your business, in your income, in your children, in your marriage! It all starts with you. How do you change the things you wish to change?

First things first, it all starts with action. You have all heard of the biblical saying of faith without works in dead. Most of the world forgets this part. What? You mean I have actually walk to the fridge to get that coke? Yeah! That is the point. For change to happen, it takes first desire and then action towards that desire. The area that I learned to take action, and focussed action, was in the Personal Development industry. I have learned things about myself and my circumstance that I had no clue about. I have had so many “ahah” moments that they cannont be counted.

Personal Development is where change takes place, in you! So the saying goes, “You must be the change,” meaning, you must change before your World will. I like to thing of Personal Development as more of steeping into you greatest potential rather than changing. That is the bulk part of what happens but you are just realizing what is already within you and taking the necessary changes to become the ultimate you. So, change yourself and you change your World. You change how you see the world, how you operate in world, and how the world operates around you.

I have been in the personal development industry for several years now and have assisted many in changing their world through a business opportunity geared towards this very thing. Personal Development mingled with a million dollar business opportunity. Lives are being transformed. People are changing their worlds and are able to assist others in doing the same. Be the change you are looking for. Make it happen!

How many of those bumper stickers have you seen on cars driving down the road that say, “I’d rather be golfing” or “I’d rather be fishing?” Everybody has seen them. I think I even used to have a few of those myself and actually say that once in a while when at work. I think that about 90% of todays employees and business owners take on this frame of mind. They would rather be living their life rather than working it away. I mean really, the true meaning to “I’d rather be golfing” is “I wish I had a different lifestyle.” They would rather be having fun, obvious.

The beauty about this business opportunity is that you don’t have to be wishing you were somewhere else, you can take this with you and do what you want to do. I took the entire day off today and went golfing with a few buddies in the prestigious Torreon Golf course here in Showlow. If I would rather be golfing, I go golfing. If we’d rather be fishing, I take my family fishing. If we feel like going to San Diego for the week, we go and our business goes with us. Making money here at home and making money in Cancun still happens the same way. To have the ability to do as you please and to still have the money come in is the lifestyle that most people in the world are looking for. I have it. I am living it and I teach others how to live it as well.

Seriously, all it takes is a choice towards the direction you would like to move in. This business opportunity will take care of the income and will allow you the time to enjoy it all. Money isn’t everything, but time to really enjoy life and the things you love most is. Make it happen. Get started!

You know, just a little fact here, almost everyone in this nation will make a million dollars. I have and most people I know have. The one factor that distinguishes a few is the time frame in which they make their millions in. Almost everyone will make a million bucks in their lifetime. Let’s see, at the national average in income of $36k, that would take about 28 years. Increase your income and of course you decrease the time frame. Now, I don’t know about you but I would not have the patience to wait 28 years to make a million dollars, and really, a million isn’t that much money. For some it may be, but open your awareness a little. Build a home, start a business, do something that can be financed and pay attention to the money that is involved. Money can go quick. We built our home for $650k. I was the middle man and saw where every single penny of that money went. It doesn’t last long.

A million bucks is not a lot of money, but it’s a start. One thing you have to realize is that most people will never even get on the road towards making their fortunes. Heck, some won’t even get the car started much less get it into drive. Those people would rather stick to the 28 year plan rather than the 1 or 2 year plan. The only reason they would do that is because they fear change, or loss, or failure, or they may even fear success because that means they would have to take action, get out of their comfort zone, or be seen as a leader. There are many different excuses.

I have been part of a business opportunity that has assisted me in achieving all of the above in my life. I am constantly out of my comfort zone and love it. I am seen as a leader in my industry, to my team, to my family and friends, and I love it. I know that if I don’t take action in this business opportunity, then who will. I know where I came from, and do I want to go back to that? The choice is simple. You can view what your life would be like if you did or didn’t do something. You know what your life is like now, so “DO” something to change that. It is by action that you will see change preceeded by the thought of what you desire to change. One without the other is vain.

So what does it take to make a million bucks in this business?

In this business, you will be paid in $14,000 commissions. 72 times 14,000 is just over a million. There you go, it is that simple. The beauty about all this is I have a system for you to follow. I have the road map. A business opportunity that is proven to produce seven figure results doable in your first or second year. So, are you going to be the one that fails to even start the car, or are you ready to jump on the road to becoming a millionaire?
