Have you really looked at your Social Media Sites? If not take about an hour to look over what's being advertised on your pages. I see that people are promoting coaching and training about how to do almost everything and get rich doing it.
I agree that if your heart is in your work, you can become successful. The adage "follow your heart" is just as true today as it was two thousand years ago, "For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also." Luke 12:34
When I have followed my instincts (heart) then I have made the right decision for my life. It's when I haven't and have listened to other people and based my decisions on logic that I have made some big mistakes.
My point is this. In Network Marketing, we can find a business that really looks great for us. Because we think we can make money quickly we get our credit card and join. A few days later we realize that we don't have the money, time, or the skills. But that realization is just an excuse.
The reality is that we don't want to take the time, to learn the skills to make the money for working any business. People spend thousands of dollars on coaching programs and never apply any of the strategies.
My issue is this; strategies are not practical with the one size fits all system. People are unique and different. Here are a few Synonyms for strategies; blueprint, design, game plan, ground-plan, program, project, road map, scheme, and system.
The get rich quick coaching programs are for high achievers. If you aren't willing to pay the price to become a top producer, the only person making money is the coach who is selling you the system.
Years ago, before I started working on-line I taught sales training. And the theme of that training was "The Art of Not Closing the Sale." It was so successful that my competition contacted me to train their agents. The subject of my training was that cold calling doesn't work. I had purchased a course Cold Calling Doesn't Work, and it made perfect sense to me. Since that time I have used this course as a base for building my business.
Social Media is all about selling something. Any business must have the exchange of money from the consumer to the business to achieve success. The transactions need to benefit the consumer who feels the value of that transaction. If not the sales rep or the business is always cold calling.
If you are using your Social Media pages to promote your business or attract buyers, pay close attention to who and what is being posted on your site. No one likes to be sold anything, but everyone likes to buy.
One of my biggest goals in life is helping as many people as possible understand that they have the power to make their life as they want it to be. You can become whatever you set your mind to. And just like many of you, I have spent years searching for a fulfilled happy life. Join me in team spirit and meet some of the most amazing people who have experienced the good and the bad choices and moved forward to success. 

When there is no possible way there are those people who find the path and travels to a destination of success. Do you feel that nothing in your life is working? You wait to earn money to have the necessities necessary to survive, but you feel that you have to have money to make money.

You have looked at internet marketing for years, and have tried to market several businesses on-line as well as off-line, only to find yourself staring at the computer screen doing mindless email clicking. Clicking emails for hours soon becomes your method of time management and marketing strategy.

And at the end of the day your bank deposit is zero.

Sleepless nights and praying or practicing the law of attraction just doesn't work either. Nothing works simply because being non-productive by just clicking emails doesn’t produce results. Millions of people world-wide have tried to create income using this mindless method of building a business.

If this scenario fits your profile, then keep reading. I want to share two stories with you about two people who actually found a way to create income with mountains of obstacles facing them. These stories are true. I have changed the names and the places of origin to keep the privacy with these two people.  

Dan lives in a secluded mountain area of the United States. He lost his job last year and found himself on welfare. He had always provided for his family. His wife worked, but her income was not enough to keep the bills paid and food on the table. Dan watched his children become more depressed as they soon realized there was no money for school lunches or supplies.

Dan applied for work only to have doors slammed in his face or his phone calls not answered. Dan was just about to give up on life.

Kala lived in a small country in Europe. She grew up in this country and being poor was the norm. She was barely twenty years old when she found herself penniless and no way to earn money to buy food. Kala could speak only one language, the native language of her country (Serbia).  

Kala had a burning desire to make money.  She owned an old computer and was able to find an internet connection. Kala had very little education and had no insight on how to earn money. Kala was scared.

What did Dan and Kala have in common? They didn’t know one another; they were on the opposite side of the world. They both were almost to the point of giving up hope when they opened an email from a stranger.
 
Dan’s email message came from someone who lived in Spain; a total stranger. Kale’s email message was sent to her by a stranger from her own country.  I learned of these two remarkable people through a friend. My friend is aware that I write stories about life experiences and connected me with both Dan and Kala.

So when Dan and Kala opened their email messages, they learned about a company that manufactured a one of a kind patented product and used the internet to market this product through a distribution network of people.  The company offered four different levels of entry to join the business opportunity.

The first level consisted of paying only for the websites and software. The total cost was about $30.00  Finding the moneyt seemed impossible, so Dan and Kala contacted the people who sent them the email messages and asked if they could sell a couple of the products to get enough money to join the company business plan. Their answers were positive so Dan and Kala each worked hard and sold a few products, each in their own way got the money to join.

Their sponsors taught them to join Face-book groups. and to copy and paste banners and ads on these groups to recruit new members.

Dan began signing up people immediately. The people he signed up were as penniless as he was but they joined just as he did. Kala wasn’t as fortunate, she copied and pasted the banners and ads for several weeks before seeing anyone join. And not being fluent in any language but Serbian, Kala had to learn to use Google Translate to communicate with her prospects in order to turn them into paying members.
 
Two months after Dan joined the business he began to see real money in his bank account. Several of his members did join at a higher paid level, but Dan still didn’t have the money because he used what he made to put food on the table. He had five children to feed, all under the age of twelve years old. 

Three months later, Kala was looking at almost a thousand dollars in her bank account. She was fortunate to have members sign at a paid level as well. But living in Serbia she needed less money for necessities than did Dan who lived in the United States. 

Each one of these remarkable people started a business most distressed places and with impossible odds. They were both emotionally and mentally drained when they started recruiting and selling the product. But they kept copying and pasting the banners and ads.

I am so very happy for these two remarkable people who took nothing and turned their lives around.  Just working with them and watching them grow emotionally and financially is my blessing. Each one has taught me so very much about the work ethic of consistency and endurance. 

So how are you doing with your business? Did you join and find ways to not copy and paste? Did you join and allow other people to take your time and drain your energy? If you did, then contact me and I will show you how these two extraordinary people had the fortitude to grow a business from nothing.

Those of us who know how to market or are fortunate enough to have the tools to build a business do not have to copy and paste, yet many of us do absolutely nothing but click emails or find excuses to not work. 

And so I ask you, what is your excuse? If you have no money then copy and paste. Yes, it’s boring and I myself am not a big Face book fan. However, I’m not stupid. If copying and pasting banners and ads on Face-book what it takes to work a business then there is no reason anyone can’t do this; UNLESS they do nothing. 

It is my prayer and hope that you found something in this article that motives you to give me a call, text or email or to fill out the contact form and learn about this.

If your life is not what you want it to be; I am offering you a tool to get what you need to survive. After you get your needs met then you can look to getting the things you want.

Money doesn’t solve all of our problems, but “money is like oxygen, we have to have it to live.” A quote by Zig Ziglar

Several years ago, I met two business women, who were about the same age and each one was making a fortune buying, selling and investing in real estate. Janet and Jasmine didn't know each other and lived thousands of miles apart, yet worked their businesses with the same business model.

Years later, after experiencing the effects of the real estate crash and the tremendous financial debt incurred by the government intervention in the mortgage and banking industry both Janet and Jasmine had to make hard choices.
People have the power to choose, what people don't have is the power to choose the consequences of their choice.
Janet couldn't let go of her power to control and produce money and kept doing business with money as her motive. She fought a hard fight but the consequences were not profitable. She complained about the country, financial institutions being dishonest, and her lack of money to meet her high overhead. Her few clients were cancelling their deals. Business was all about Janet and her money.

Jasmine took a different approach. She studied the marketplace and listened to her clients. Many had lost jobs, had their homes foreclosed, or illness due to the stress of the economy. Jasmine downsized her lifestyle, and cut her overhead costs by working from home. She gathered as much money as she could and bought foreclosed homes, did the repairs before reselling the homes or rented the homes at prices her clients could afford with option to buy. She became the mortgage holder and used a portion of the rent for her client's down payment, and went even further. She educated her clients about how to regain good credit to be able to re-finance with a bank.

What was the difference that made Janet eventually file bankruptcy, and Jasmine grow a slow but steady business? The answer is the attitude and flexibility to adjust to the economic climate. Janet cared only about getting her money. Jasmine cared about helping people start a new life, and to re-create hope for her clients.
​
People become what they think about. People choose the greed of money or choose to share their money by helping others. Money is a powerful tool. The thoughts and intent about money manifests the worries or rewards that people attract. It is the wisdom from God to create benevolence. People choose the way they live; and experiences the consequences of that decision.  

Doing business in the economic recession takes careful thought and planning. But it also takes another level of awareness. The awareness of how people think. Thoughts become things. Learn to manifest the good in life by becoming aware of the present moment when doing business or when living life on a personal level. Happiness is created by the happenings of life, and people choose their direction daily, moment by moment.
 

Do you believe in Angels? Although statistics very, the Bible mentions angels about 300 times. Many religions believe angels are messengers or protectors. Angels are for everyone; the key to experiencing angels is present moment awareness.

Walking my dog in the park is a bonding and fun time for both of us. But the walks are also learning experiences in awareness for me. It's the present moment consciousness that helps to keep me grounded.
The following experience happened a few months ago. Harlow (my dog) and I were having a dog training lesson about not chasing birds. And as usual she always found a bird to chase that I really wasn't aware of or just didn't see it. 
On that quiet sunny day with the ocean breeze blowing just enough to cool the heat of the sunshine, Harlow made a dash toward a beautiful white bird standing directly beside a homeless woman who was sleeping soundly near the river.  
I had seen this woman several times riding her bike, but never sleeping. What happened next startled me. That bird didn't move when Harlow darted toward it. My dog abruptly stopped within two feet of the bird, and neither Harlow nor I dared to move closer. It was apparent the bird was not going to move.    
After gaining composure, we continued our walk around the riverbank. Approaching our starting point, I noticed the woman was still sleeping and the beautiful white bird standing exactly in the same spot with its feathers blowing in the wind. Several people had gathered and were watching with intrigued intent.
They were talking among themselves that the bird had protected the woman for over two hours. Someone in the crowd mentioned that perhaps they should call the Park Ranger.
I felt speechless as I listened to the discussion. A few people attempted to approach the woman but the bird wouldn't allow them near her. It was late so Harlow and I went home, but I couldn't forget the experience.
Later that week I ran into several of the people who had stayed until the woman awoke. Their story is that the woman slept about another hour before she walked to her bicycle. The bird flew into the sunset only after the woman left the park.
Why was that big beautiful white bird so protective with this homeless woman? Was the woman an angel? Or was the bird an angel? Or were either of them an angel?
Life can only be lived one moment at a time. Living in present moment can broaden our wisdom. We can't change the past. But we can change our future by making better choices. And to get the wisdom for better choices, we must practice present moment living.
Pay attention to your surroundings. Life can teach wisdom if you allow it. And you may experience the presence of an angel.

Phantoms of Identity Theft are working non-stop to destroy lives. Almost daily the news media reports another breach of security. Yet people still can't find the time and resources to protect themselves. Are you using precautions to protect yourself and your family?
 
people fail to understand is that identity theft is not really about money. The phantoms who steal identities destroy and gain control leaving their victims feeling powerless. Chaos erupts as the madness of complications increase by the hour leaving the victims with little hope of regaining their financial status, or credit rating thus affecting every area of life.
 
Keeping track of money is more important today than ever in the history of humanity. Record keeping is essential to protecting identity. We have a birth record and so does our money. Do you keep accurate records of your money? Do you own a good shredder to dispose of the records after they are no longer needed?
 
Although money is unique to us because it is part of who we are, it is not our true identity. Money determines the life style we live. We spend our time earning money. Just as we are unique, and own a fingerprint that no one else has so does our money fingerprint because it helps to create our lifestyle.
 
The difference between our money fingerprint and our birth fingerprint is that we lose our place in society when we lose our money. Our birth fingerprint cannot be replicated or replaced. Is identity theft really about the money or is it about "who" we are?
 
Our problem with identity is that we are not aware of our real DNA. Our true self is about our origin, not about our money. Someone had to create us. We didn't get here by osmosis.
 
Living through the nightmare of identity theft is extremely difficult. Many of us loose our retirement, or children's college education. Our good credit scores plummet and we have no choice but to file bankruptcy. We become angry, depressed with hope fading into the atmosphere. Our life as we once knew is gone forever, and affects every member of our family.
 
The cliché that God won't allow more trails placed upon us than we can endure is untrue. God allows devastation so that we have to turn to Him. If we think we can work our way through this darkness alone, we are fools.
 
We may find ourselves in the valley of the shadow of death, but we aren't mean to camp-out there. This is the time to ask God to help regain the energy of hope and start a new life.
 
If you haven't already learned your true identity, now is the time. Take precautions to prevent identity theft; it's much easier to prevent than to clean up the havoc.
 
Ask yourself; is identity theft really about the money?

Last night my neighbor David and I discussed failure. David said when he failed at something he just quit. He doesn't have any interest in starting over. David mentioned that he can't understand my thought process. I just don't quit. To him failure means that he has actually failed and he doesn't want to give himself another chance.

Failure is a method of renewing. Just as that tree in the forest fell to help renew the earth with room for more growth, I feel failure is the way to gain growth and wisdom. Succeeding at anything, be it losing weight, getting a college degree, or starting our own business takes a series of failures.

Quitting is not an option after a failure. Changing directions on life's journey because of bad judgment and unfavorable consequences is a good thing, but never let that failure control destiny.

Failure has many components; one being sincere ignorance. Nothing is more dangerous than sincere ignorance, and sincere ignorance is a reality that people have and most aren't even aware they own it.

Sincere ignorance is energy that we have placed on a perception and we are not willing to broaden the scope of our thinking to allow truth to find us. So when failure occurs, we tell ourselves we can't do something because it isn't working for us.

David's thought process is an example sincere ignorance. His life is one of chaos. We all have a story of failed relationships and business ventures. What has caused David's chaotic life circumstances?

Pointing the finger of blame to another person because of not taking responsibility for choices and actions is a leading cause. We are on earth to learn and grow in wisdom. How can we grow when we won't accept that we failed, because we created that failure with negative thoughts or bad judgment calls.

Settling into the easy street of unhealthy habits fueled with negative thoughts leads to dead-end roads. When we reach a failure point, we always have a choice to turn left or right. Homesteading there produces more unhappiness. We create that failure or success with our thoughts. We are what we think.

How we deal with failure grows integrity based character? Large trees have character, because they survive storms. Think about growing character with failure instead of quitting.
