Fortune Cookie Wisdom For Powerhouse Internet Marketers

There are 2 inherent types of people in the world.

1) Those who react and take much of what happens personally...,


2) The very, very few who choose peace over troubled chaos.


Conclusion:


* When you do the first, you subconsciously think you are small. 

* When you do the latter, you are consciously choosing your real and most powerful self. 

Suggestions:

* Pull in your favorite daily exercises to help you stay in tune with your active self.


* Eat well...drink plenty of clear water...


* And focus on one moment-at-a-time

Success Is A Choice

Success Is A Choice

Welcome Fellow Business Owners and Marketers! 

May this day find you well.  It's 3:34 am, Saturday morning... and it's time to write this post. I am sharing something today that I just published inside of an Internet marketing university designed to grow powerful people.

I'm going to cover a few things that may set your feet on fire for good reasons related to "you need to read this content".  It's time for another black belt workout, master style.  In my university tutorials, I spread uplifting help. Sometimes, we have black belt workouts designed to build a strong mindset needed to create online success.

This week, a brief and yet another event arose.  It does not bear repeating...really. The essence of what I will say has more to do with you making up your mind to accomplish something you hugely desire, mainly because it's connected to your true wealth.

You are very powerful...and for reasons individuals never can directly see, you may not realize this ultimate truth.  You are here on this Earth for a very good reason. What are you going to do with your time?

Wealth Is Mindset

If you  compare 2 people -- the first one who is very successful in ways they determine themselves...and the second who is not, there are major differences in the ways these people think, act, and persist.

The Successful One

• This person is successful in every sense of the word.
• Remove their wealth and they get back up again.
  
• Many hit brick walls all the time but they don't advertise it.
• They are working long after others have quit because they know that their success is NEVER in question. 
• It does not matter if they've worked for 20 years and their business gets hit by a tornado. Whether they're brick-and-mortar (physical) or virtual (online), it doesn't matter.
• They get back up again, time after time.
• They're masters at dusting off their boots.
• They never accept excuses about "Why something doesn't work".
• They're always looking for solutions and reasons to move forward.
• They stop blaming others but must be very honest about themselves -- done so they will move forward.
  

The One Who Gives Up (At The Drop Of A Hat)

I will apologize in advance if I step on any toes. That is not my intention. You need to read this post for 1 major reason only. Don't quit. Establish your resolve and do it.


If you quit and it doesn't matter who you learn your Internet marketing and business from, you will only disappoint yourself.  I've even had a personal coach quit!  There is it.  He blames everyone but himself and he's one of the best mentors around, but at some point in his life he chose to believe in negative programming. Successful people will tell you that you can't let the opinions of others get in the way.


What I share here and now say is said with respect and even love.  Successful ones are always pulling for you.  We feel sad when you get involved in blame games because that carries no real weight in what you'd like to do but don't.

* At the end of your life, you will have experiences to examine -- good and not so hot.

*  In a world of blame, blame isn't even real.  It's just another test of fear, challenging your soul to achieve and claim its true self.

* Remove all of the reasons why you should or should not do something and what you'll get is YOURSELF...standing in a room alone with decisions to make or not.

* Blame others for whatever reason your brain will suggest.

The mind is a good thing but it gets in the way (because ego will try to rule you), and successful people put their minds at ease.  They have developed this habit in order to survive and continue their successful existence. I'll cite Donald Trump. While he's a persistent one -- he's still standing. That person has declared bankruptcy how many times? He's still standing long after others have quit. While I'm not a #1 fan of Trump, I will admit -- he has major gumption.


* Successful people put major time and energy into supporting others...and many of those people quit. Ever think about that reality? Yeah - there are times where we feel...why try?  You'll quit?  And we do not let that thinking rule the scene. We cannot because you are worth so much!

* Some are meant to forge the tip of the arrow.  They are here to show you a better way.  What will you learn?

* Internet marketing or anything else you could excel at requires that you put your time in. It's not about paying your dues. It's about being determined to master your life. 1% of the entire sum on the planet get here!  Is it that hard?  NO.  It takes major energy to sit still when you should be moving forward. Take your actions today...now...and see what happens.  It will be special if you stay focused on your goals and targets. You cannot miss your mark.


* Every time you hit a wall, it's there.  Successful people say to themselves.., OK.., it's here.  I'll work through it... and very soon it will be a blip in the sidewalk .  Those who make excuses call it a mountain every time...and the ones who are working (while keeping their heads down with effort) are paving the way for you! They invest everything they have -- time, energy, $$, resources, people, know-how...even set backs they could call failure, and still some of you toss that gift away as if it were an old shoe. People who focus on "what they didn't do" might instead try focusing on "what they did do".  This will shift thought away from undesired results and move it in directions of what can change and improve.

* Business owners have to be tough because they invest their souls into whatever it is they choose to do and create.  Pay is important but it's not all there is.  We are givers...sometimes at the expense of ourselves.  It's not a us VS. you thing.  It never was. Our lesson is to learn how to give and receive in good balance.

* Those who give up are still doing it, no matter what they're facing.  So if you're one of those people, NOW you have a choice.  It is a tough choice because when you are intending to be successful and perhaps you have not yet hit your stride, you have to face yourself by asking, "I've quit this other endeavor because I really did not follow through".  Ask yourself why?  Life is here for you to teach you what you can absolutely master.  Business does the same thing.  It grows you in ways you would not expect.

BE STRONG OR NOT

Be abundant or not.  There is no judgment.  It is only a state of being...but try living without money and success.  Then you have no options and the only role you can now play is, "I'm too spiritual to even be abundant so now I'll reject everyone who hit their mark".  What kind of reasoning is that? 


Be successful and the world opens itself to you.

Let poverty and past "circumstances" (successful people call excuses) rule you.


Sensible people who are very successful say "no".  We view you as being successful but you don't yet see ...because you are an individual who is IN PROCESS...just like us.  I say this with care.

Successful people are no different than you are.  They're just long standing students who never quit. They are self-directed. They work like dogs. They know they are powerful but they may not state it.


So I'll end this post with these thoughts designed to either do 1 of 2 things:

1) Inspire you so that you will not quit and you'll remember what I've shared here and now...,

2) Get mad for other reasons because you missed something I intended to share...knowing that you are someone who is in process (and there really is no judgment).

If you're thinking that "perhaps the right person will come along and deliver the gold".  Successful people know this last reality won't hinge on any one person. They create their success because they persist and believe in themselves unconditionally.

Negative People Spread Their Misery...Because Misery Is Their Only Respite

Positive People Stop Themselves At Times Where They'd Like To Let Their Brains Rule The Show 

Incorporate your heart in what you do.  Do it with a zest but also remember that you have choices.
How will you spend your time while you are alive?  Will you inspire others (including yourself)?  Will you let every little or major thing get you down?  Even successful people need these periodic reminders.

We are here to create and share in unison.  My heart consistently tells me that we are all meant to be abundant in ways we deem most fit.  We are meant to be loved, love, and be healthy, wealthy and wise.
This is the world at its best.

Be the master you already are.  Let nothing stand in your way.

Welcome Fellow Network Marketing Associates!

It's been sometime since I've posted an update on any of my external blogs ...meaning I have internal blogs dedicated to Internet marketing university students who are working in directions of superaffiliate marketing.  I'd like to do the same for you...but let me tell you..., I HAVE BEEN HARD AT WORK FOR YOU!

Let's get into why you're here.  You're probably struggling in your network marketing business, you've exhausted your options, you've tried everything they told you to use (3-way calls for uplines who naturally can not be there), working your warm market by chasing Aunt Annie, pulling in those expensive corporate DVD's, and more.  I'm here to tell you that things are just not working the way they once did.  


Fast Forward, Internet

OK.  Now let's talk a little bit about Facebook.  Even that is changing!  A majority of people don't know how it was designed to work.  If some pay for ads, they botched the job.  I cite Jonathan Budd (even though I love some of his stuff).  Their paid ads do not work the way you think they would...if you apply traditional marketing.

Google pushed a ton of merchants offline because they seemingly hit people too hard with their biz opps. Many did. Some didn't.  But even if you've been over at Facebook adding hundreds to your contact list (for what now)???? I will tell you that there's a better way to proceed.  

If you have done everything else they asked you to do and you just cannot get to that list of qualified (let alone interested) people...


There are credible ways and it is not a fast path.  In fact, it requires a lot of work to enrich others before they'll trust you.  There's also learning involved, but it works!  Case in point.  You're here.  I'm on the other side of this screen smiling at you.  Wanna know how to do it?  I'm teaching people already so you might as well find out more.
  
Word To The Wise --

You must stop leading with your business opportunity.  it's killing your business. 


Don't spend 15 years studying a comp plan when all you have to know in one small table what commissioned payouts will be over X number of weeks for every group of people you move into your products.  MLM's change their plans all the time.  Keep your math simple and straight shootin'! 

There Are Hundreds of Thousands of MLM's!

If every MLM works the same way..and there's only 1 out there that doesn't (that I personally know of), all of the other 99,999 teach warm market, selling those DVD's to their active distributors (it works for the company), and give you advice to share your list with these MLM's...

Everyone else out there is doing the same thing!  Why should it be different for you?

Forget letting someone else work the business for you so you can just sit on the beach and sip your tea.  Truth is -- you can still do this but you're going to be in for a big surprize.  To be independent (in every sense), you have to be responsible towards yourself and others in ways that are far more proactive....meaning, you will not wait on others to get the work done.


Stop the old stuff.

You opted into business ownership so now you have to get your head out of those old clouds. Admit it to yourself so you can once and for all move forward -- it is not working.  It is not.  Dress up the pig, add that pink lipstick, even put a pink skirt on her because it's still the same smelly, ugly pig.


Make A Radically New Choice


Here's where things get fun.  I'm not here to promote 1 thing.  In fact, I represent hundreds of companies out there..., but if you're going to move forward, you have to hit a point where you recognize that what you did was what you did.


You did not fail.

Now...Let's Look At Alternatives

They're out there...and please don't try to tell me they are not because that is simply not true.  


There are new schools emerging...and these are not the same Old School VS. New School Wars.


These schools are New Economy, 21st Century Marketing Schools.  What they are challenging are the 20th Century Marketing Standards everyone accepted and used.  As a business owner, you do NOT have to throw a lot of $$ at advertising when you can't even build your list. That's what happening out there.e


Now that's even changing.


Guess what?  

You can be your own builder and list owner!  You can.


No matter who you are -- doctor, lawyer, CPA, MLM'er, affiliate gone newbie online..., mom at home, dad stressed out (noteably so) because his unemployment was luckily extended for another 6 months..., senior military officers being let go, MBA's unemployed, it doesn't matter.  A lot of us are sitting in the same boat.  Wouldn't it stand to reason that if the U.S. doesn't bring back outsourced jobs (and this could very well happen), we're going to have to pull together, think differently, and make different choices.


Solution #1 --  Consider Yet Again Some New Retraining


I know.  I relate to this situation cause I've been there more than I'd care to admit.  There has been and was nothing but disheartening than finishing grad school (with a big loan) only to find out that companies weren't hiring several years later.  I know of attorneys (for the first time) who are being let go!  Doctors are struggling because they are being hit hard by retail medicine and changing gov't policies on New Health Care.  Dentists are experiencing lags in business but they're not even sure why.  HINT:  The people are looking online because it's fast.  These pros don't know much about setting up a viable web presence.  The ones who are and have are moving forward.  The ones who haven't are not.  They're stuck. Consider...


Something Has To Change


We could get lost in ailments of our economy, but we need to look to home first.  No one is going to do it for us so we might as well grab hands and turn on the light switch in unison.

It starts with learning how to pay ourselves without relying on any corporation to do it for us -- as nice as this would be.



I am here to report..., the masses are hopping online looking for viable alternatives for reasons related to:

1)  Companies sitting on massive profits...billions made these past 2 years..., pretty much since the 2008 meltdown;


They tell us it's the gov't that's holding them up with new hires.  No..., it's not.  They have learned to operate with a skeleton crew or take their work far beyond India.  They're afraid of losing themselves...rightfully so...and they WILL take their billions to invest it elsewhere  The gov't is not to blame as much as we'd like to think so...even if they have buffered big business at public expense.  But I'll apologize in advance if I'm stepping on any toes.  I'm not trying to do that.  I'm just saying we have to rethink the way we live and work now.

2)  Folks are panicked (and it need not be that way)...,


3)  There is a solution and it is online...as much as the offliners say, "it's not all there is".  OK...give us other ideas.  Real estate is not on a quick rebound.  Investments have tanked.  Financial firms are struggling (or if they aren't...they're still skimming).  Banks are now seeing the lowest savings ever.  People are paying off their debts and they're pretty giddy about reinvesting in U.S. markets.

Global markets are expanding.  We live in a world economy now.  The best way to offset our financial risks would be to look at the world as it is now.

We can't bankroll all of our savings into "newly -emerging markets", although it might "look" like a golden strategy.  We've got to do something more.

If you will consider the Internet as a viable option, ask yourself how many billions of people live on the planet?  Those numbers are growing online. Consumers wants ease of purchase. Google is cleaning up their pond.  You can build a global business online but you can't even build a small list in your neighborhood.  Churches are tapped out by every MLM'er imagineable.

Movement Back Into Cottage Industries

When times get tough, people get creative.  That time is here.  Even companies are moving their employees back into the home environment...so why not work over your lunch hour to create something new?  You need 2 hours a day.  I'm sure you can find that time.

Spread your risk.  Diversify.  

Look further at the Internet as a viable opportunity because you won't lose out by looking at some facts.  In fact, I've seen people miss real opportunity because they automatically ruled out the obvious points like --

* Free Advertising
* Low Start Up
* Invest Sweat Equity
* Low Overhead
* Potential For High Profit
* Own Your Own Thing Outright
* Massive Room for Personal and Business Growth
* T. Harv Eker, Speed Wealth, "One of the best things you can do for your own wealth is to build and grow an online empire!  Get in before the door closes.  In another 10 years, it will be much tougher.  There's major room for more people TODAY!"


If you're saying, "I don't know anything about the online world and I have no technical skills so how do I qualify?"  I've talked about this in earlier posts until it's coming out my ears...

You ONLY need these things:


1)  Your own domain
2)  Long distance phone, unlimited $20 -- $40/month
3)  web hosting
4)  Internet Connection (preferrably high speed)
5)  $$ to keep your regular bills paid -- keep the other job going in the meantime...
6)  Fingers to do the typing
7)  Desire
8)  Willingness to learn and do.




You Do NOT Need These Things 

...Just Because Gurus Tell Newbies They Do


No one knows better than me.  After some major $$ spent here and there testing everything under the sun, I took the risk out of this deal for you.  It can't get any safer than this.  If you think so, then no one can help offline or online.
 
Here's what you want to look out for when coming online.  I'll mention the obvious points shortcut people market only fleece you out of the $$ you need for things like eating and sleeping in a warm place:


A) Forget filling out surveys for pay  - it's a major scam
B) Forget gurus who claim they can do it for you  - it's a major scam
C) Forget glitz and glammor without the sweat  - it's a major illusion (OK LIE)
D) Don't pay thousands for what you can get for an affordable sum...less than $1,000 a year -- another grey area for newbies and even seasoned people..,
E) Let the biz opp go -- the only ones who will do this take their own initiative...,
F) Lead with your products/services
G) Pull in what you know very well  (it could be some hobby, painting, music, collecting, a life experience that taught you a lot..., you name it)
H) The Nigerian Bank Scam -- it's some site suckers pay for...
H) Just be willing to learn and act.


You are not working another MLM online.  You are not working your warm market.  You are not giving your list away.  So if you're still here...


4) America is still the land of opportunity


The time has passed greatly to release your full independence on that paid job in favor of something you can truly enjoy doing and get paid well to do it.
If you have to work anything in the meantime, yes...keep it going.  Do what you think is best, but consider adding to that work effort something you can call your own.

If you will -- 

Work...and do

Connect..and care for others at REAL levels instead of taking shortcuts

Stop talking or making excuses about why you can't do something... or anything for that matter...

Quit distractions that get you no where...

Take the attitude that you are your own CEO of your business and you are responsible for all that happens inside of it...

That's it.

If you can do those few things, you will hit your mark. 

You can't miss!
