Home Business Story of the Unemployment Wolf, the Three Plans and Own Your Channel
It’s a fair statement that we live in uncharted times...a new world of tremendous changes that affects everyone of us at all levels from birth to old age, education, careers, family, home, health care, technology, retirement, cultures and even morality. Therein lies deep valleys of uncertainty and high peaks of possibilities. At the same time, we are enveloped by storms of information..so much information coming at us from all directions...what to read, watch, believe and decide?
Sometimes, through the storm, a simple story can best present basic ideas and lessons. There is no better story that has appealed to generations than the Wolf and The 3 Little Pigs. The underlying moral, of course, is that the best prepared individual, given choices, will better outlast any dramatic problems or changes with the potential to live happily ever after.
Let's imagine for this story that Unemployment can be represented as a bad wolf.
Now, a recent New York Times article has outlined how millions of unemployed people face years without jobs as the recession continues to mount, with millions nearing the end of their unemployment benefits.
approximately 6.3 million Americans have been unemployed for six months or longer, the largest number since the government began keeping track in 1948. 15 million are officially jobless.
need 100,000 new jobs a month just to absorb entrants to the labor force.
large companies are increasingly owned by institutional investors who crave swift profits, a feat often achieved by cutting payroll. Companies hire less or find capital equipment to replace workers.
the declining influence of unions has made it easier for employers to shift work to part-time and temporary employees.
factory work and even white-collar jobs have moved in recent years to low-cost countries in Asia.
automation has helped manufacturing cut 5.6 million jobs since 2000 — the sort of jobs that once provided lower-skilled workers with middle-class paychecks.
strapped households have less buying power which affects auto companies, home construction, foreclosed properties, retails sales and more.
Back to the story, and the simple premise that it is obvious that the threat of unemployment is like the big bad wolf’s threat to the security of the three little pigs.
In fact, let's take a creative look at these challenges with an analogy...that the big bad wolf is the unemployment attacker and the three little pigs act as the three plans that can best deal with the "huffing and puffing" of this uncertain economy.
Let’s begin this simple analogy...
A deep recession fell upon the land. More people fell out of work and savings petered out, and the menace of unemployment, like a hungry wolf, appeared in the neighbourhood. People accustomed to the comforts of middle-class life began to rely on public assistance for the first time in their lives..could it potentially be for years to come?
People began to look at three possible plans in case the unemployment wolf knocked on their doors.
PLAN #1...Hang on and hope the recession will pass. This somewhat passive thinking is like living in a twig house..no personal income, no protection at the mercy of harsh realities.
a.Try and adapt to live without a secure paycheck or unemployment check. It may mean doing without prescription medications, health insurance, certain amenities, healthier food choices, holidays, education and more.
b. Face the spectre of being homeless as a real possibility.
c. Start to believe you are the failure and blame yourself because of age, weight gain or any other "prominent insecurity".
PLAN #2... Be more proactive and look for suitable other employment.
a. Send out local flyers to clean houses or walk dogs. Check out local job listings. Send out dozens of resumes and not hear back. Respond to online ads with less than desirable offers. Take a state-financed program, many with low wages.
b. Check out more expensive investments in what are considered to be the best jobs (for over forty year olds) where you can make potentially make $100,000. Here are some examples..education administrator, strategic communication professional, community sevice co-ordinator, computer systems manager (need MBA with focus on technology) or even a small scale niche farmer (whatever that means).
c. Browse the internet filled with schemes and dreams to ransom a king's treasures. Network marketing home business opportunities abound but they are too often overly time consuming and expensive with over expectations of royalty-like leadership and followers…and, generally, they are NOT doable by the average citizen.
In my opinion these are like straw houses easily blown away with excuses and failures.
PLAN #3...Consider being a Home Business Owner with Own Your Channel.
a. Start building a main foundation as an independent team for $9 month...similar to a home business insurance that offers protection in numbers and time to learn more about entrepreneurship..the blueprint for success. There are no legitimate excuses.
b. Grow this home team cheaply, quickly, and soon it can become a serious contender to join big companies and make profits from the beginning. Even if a particular company stops producing, your team can join other opportunities.
c. Value the serious efforts to help others by setting up a Clearing House for people who cannot afford even minimal start-up costs for a home business. They can wait for sponsorship into a profitable program with perks. For example, they can get a $299 LGN (Little Guy Network) account for $24 (cost of OYC..enrollment fee plus $9 month)
In my opinion, this is the one and only home business build from solid bricks. The construction starts with master builders. You start by listening to a valuable video that outlines the program. Your "job" is to share this blueprint with others who are looking for more security.
Together you can watch the income calculator and understand the potential of a big home-based team with definite defensive skills as well as offensive strength.
Unemployment fears can "huff and puff" but there is definite protection in numbers, leveraging information tools and residual income.
The ending of this story and analogy will be written by different people in different ways.
I sincerely hope you will check out a compelling video as part of plan #3. Get your questions and comments answered. Start building your house of bricks. Join like- minded entrepreneurs standing by to help you.
If you still question the moral value of this simple story...then perhaps a poster from the late 1940’s will help to focus on why you should act today..
"There are two days in every week about which we should not worry, two days which should be kept free from fear and apprehension. "One of these days is YESTERDAY, with its mistakes and cares, its faults and blunders, its aches and pains. Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control. All the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday. We cannot undo a single act we performed or erase a single word we said. Yesterday is gone.
"The other day we should not worry about is TOMORROW, with its possible adversities, its burdens, its large promise, and its poor performance. Tomorrow is also beyond our immediate control. "This leaves only one day, TODAY. Anyone can fight the battles of just one day. It is only when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternities - Yesterday and Tomorrow - that we break down.
"It is not the experience of Today that drives us mad, it is remorse and bitterness for something which happened yesterday and the dread of what tomorrow may bring. Let us therefore… Live this one full TODAY."
Have you been watching the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, B.C.? I generally pay attention because it’s great to marvel at the potential of human motivation, discipline and success...sometimes measured in matters of hundredths of a second. The winning exhilaration is undeniable and somewhat enviable because our lives are often measured by these moments of passion. But is there a way we can share joy and success of “winning” without being an Olympian? For example, can we share the joy of “winning” great success in a home business?
The road to Olympic stardom is long and expensive..
1.Assess physical condition and begin serious training
2.Join National Governing Body (NGB) to gain national ratings at various competitions
3.Get coach and start serious competition
4.Find financing to cover cost of living and training full time (family, private, athletic scholarships or corporate sponsorships
5.Attend national championships to qualify for Olympics ..a national ranking determined through previous competitions results
All this involves strenuous training for Olympians to perfect their skills and maintain their phenomenal level of physical shape. An aspiring athlete spends an average of eight hours a day, seven days a week training their body and mind—more time than a full-time job. They devote their natural talent, dedication, and drive to their sport in hopes of being the best in the world.
At these 2010 Winter Olympic games, in matter of a few seconds (23.17) and spectacular back double full jump, an Olympian became the first Canadian athlete, a mogul skier, to win a Gold Medal for the first time in his native land after almost 35 years of competition. Alexander Bilodeau is now a Canadian icon.
Along with his training and excellence, he gave credit for his drive to his older brother Frederic who has cerebral palsy as a source of inspiration and drive.
When asked about how much the gold medal belonged to his brother, Bilodeau said, “A lot. Growing up with a handicapped person puts everything in perspective. He taught me so many things in life. My parents did, too.”
Do you have a magnificent purpose you wish your lifetime can fulfill?
The road to GOLD MEDAL HOME BUSINESS with OWN YOUR CHANNEL
1. Only assessment you need is the belief the economy is changing beyond your control and you deserve more financial security. You want a secondary income with more personal control to give more stability to your children and even grandchildren.
2. Join the social network of entrepreneurs called Own Your Channel. Read the questions and articles...get your questions answered. This is your training center because we trust your natural intelligence. There is no cost to join.
3. You don’t need a coach…a single powerful video will tell the whole story. You already have strong inner conviction you deserve more and your elf worth is more than some hourly wage. Share this message with like minded people you know.
4. You don’t need a lot of money to get started..in fact, wait until you can see how much you can make before joining any opportunity. Save yourself hundreds of dollars in time and material. Registration fee is $15 to set up and $9 month that helps cover back office management.
As a member of Own Your Channel you will be invited to join the Little Guys Network or LGN (check the site for features and benefits) If you can manage the one-time $325 enrollment fee, you will start a 2x2 person matrix to earn $777. If you cannot manage the fee at the beginning, and this is understandable, you can get on track in the Clearing House.to receive a free $299 account and join the matrix through a Pay It Forward sponsor from OYC. We call this the Entrepreneurs Assembly Line
5. Imagine the exhilaration when you start making money and then doubling or tripling your profits with multiple other companies. Imagine yourself standing on the podium of financial security.
Of course, it is a great moment of glory and accomplishment to wear a large gold (or silver or bronze) medal around your neck.
But wouldn’t it also be great to sport a bank account with multiple thousands of dollars…so we can afford to pursue all our passions. We stress cooperation where maximum number of people can win rather than competition where only a few are rewarded.
As Bob and Doug McKenzie from SCTV might say, "Beauty, eh?"
By the way, most baby boomers wouldn’t look that great in tight polyester ski suits. The only “moguls” I want to overcome are any mental suppositions that block my home business success with Own Your Channel.
The Tiger Woods Saga and MLM Home Business...3 Similarities and ONE Huge Difference
Everybody seems to have an opinion about the Tiger Woods scandal…even the Stock Market fell into a lull for 13 minutes as Tiger made his first public appearance and apology in 3 months. For me, the main interest was the psychology of why people behave contrary to their belief systems and the inherent right to learn from their mistakes and get a second chance
The more I thought about this human drama, the more I was struck by certain similarities.
1. The GAME and BUSINESS MODEL
The game of golf remains constant and true to its principles. It continues to exist within the spectrum of personal victories and failures of golfers. There will always be golfers striving for recognition and beating their personal best within rules and protocol.
The MLM industry model…its main concepts and functions will continue into the future within the range of millionaire, poor, new or veteran networkers who strive to make it work as well as they hope to. If goals do not work out as planned, we, as entrepreneurs, have the right to change the rules to better meet changing times.
2. THE MESSAGE One sincere explanation will be believed or not believed. His apology for his behavior will be received and dissected in as many diverse ways as possible by people with as many diverse viewpoints, including those who may not even play the game or have working knowledge. Those with secondary agendas will step from the shadows and try to capitalize from his fame and fortune.
It happens when trying to explain the Network Marketing Business Model. Some will take a pitch...some will cry foul and some will hit amazing home runs! Some people have no experience, or a bad experience or base their understanding on hearsay. Entitlement or entrenchment is not the channel to make judgments and decisions. In fact, any voluntary, on-the-spot act can produce irreversible results that may take a lifetime to erase.
3. PERSONAL CHOICES
We all need to find our “core values” as we travel a personal journey. Character will decide the direction of the game. It starts with practice and vision to improve and meet individual goals. It includes personal responsibility and respect for team members.
Similarly, people can choose not to see the potential of this home business model based on only 3 simple principles: message, marketing and residual income. Some close the window of opportunity and find fault with the industry, not themselves or lack of training or consistency.
4. PERSONAL CHALLENGE
Herein lies the biggest difference…in most sports…individual excellence is based on a combination of natural talent, dedication, practice and vision.
In network marketing, excellence comes from LEVERAGE.
Leverage of Information Tools will make you a champion…
In other words, you don’t have to spend years of self-sacrifice, training and expense to become the best you can be. You become the messenger and share information by an expert via a webinar or DVD. Imagine if a Tiger Woods double could take all your golf shots!
Imagine if a successful CEO can do all your presentations?
WHAT WE DON’T KNOW CAN HURT US FINANCIALLY.
Of course, many questions remain about Tiger Woods:
How long will his rehabilitation take?
How long before he gets back to playing great golf?
In the same way..networkers have questions. Nobody wants to do something that doesn’t work. The track record for networker success is not very encouraging.
How long before a networker can make some serious money?
What kind of training do I need to make this work for me?
Here’s a personal invitation to you…will you take it, leave it, assume you know, deflect or blame it on someone else?
There is a new instrument in this MLM Network Marketing Home Business called
Own YourChannel.
The time is right to change the way this industry can produce results for the average networker. It begins by reversing the sequence and building an independent home-based team before joining a MLM opportunity. Why not calculate profits before spending money? Why not Pay It Forward and share your success to help others? Why not double, triple your earnings from multiple pay plans?
Remember. Your championship word is LEVERAGE. Listen to this compelling video. Then call me to discuss your questions and opinions. We are here to help and support you. Life is a competition but our team is about co-operation and paying it forward.
In the meantime, I wish the best for Tiger Woods...He is a prodigy with human conditions who has transformed the game of golf. He has a long road to climb with serious crosses to bear and I wish him and his family faith, healing and happiness.
Standing by to help, Annemarie

Why Work from Home Business Mom reads Robert Kiyosaki celebrates Own Your Channel Even More
Motherhood, Security, Independence..are there any more valuable words. Last week I lived them all and learned some important lessons about being a better networker.
MOTHERHOOD
...involved babysitting three children for my brother and his wife while they went on a much needed vacation. A 3 year old, a 6 year old and a 17 year old became my responsibility. It was full time work...First, the cooking from preparation to clean up from breakfast to a hot lunch to home cooked suppers. Second, the standard duties...mail, shopping, laundry, organization. Third, the quality playtime..reading, sharing discoveries, paying attention, toys, laughter, a few tears, helping, games, redirections (don’t like using the words No or Can’t ) and lots and lots of affirmations. I walked away with a renewed and deeper respect for the countless things moms do (without the aid of a day care facility).
And it’s a full time job..common enough to the last generation..like my mother who raised five children on a homestead...we were her focus, strength and world...a legacy we still enfold.
And it is unconditional protection, love and security for the best of futures.
SECURITY (versus Insecurity)
In the evenings I found a few minutes to myself. I read Robert Kiyosaki’s new book Conspiracy of the Rich. It is written in a readable style that actually does simplify the complex world of finances…what created today’s economic challenges and how they can be tempered. It is definitely recommended for its 8 New Rules of Money with the biggest concern on how the future will be different. Here are just a handful of factors:
baby boomers are retiring and beginning to collect Social Security in an unprecedented rate..78 million
suburbs are ground zero for the subprime mess..major shopping centers and retailers are closing their doors while online shopping is taking off
television networks are losing advertisers to the world wide web
major airlines are on life support while people visit all over the world via the Internet
pension plans are going broke both company pensions, health care and Social Security
China will soon be the richest country on Earth and is asking that the US dollar no longer be the reserve currency of the world
One eye is watching the children sleeping peacefully...one eye is now watching warily economic forces unfold over which most families have no control. One hand is rocking the cradle...the other hand is building a life raft.
A home business with a personal supplementary income is definitely an answer in this uncertain economic forecast. The next question is what kind of home business? Who will help me? How much will it cost? How much can I make?
INDEPENDENCE
You can see how busy Moms are and their priorities are with their growing children.
They do not have time to master product features, industry fundamentals, marketing, call lists, self-development courses or metamorphose into an “attraction marketing guru.” They do have valuable skills of friendship, communication, integrity, and talent enough to amplify their earnings with proper support and simple home business plan.
This is why I celebrate Own Your Channel as my family’s way to long-term income and financial independence. It offers the best TRUE balance in the network marketing MLM home-based industry based on three main benefits:
comprehensive leverage..share one expert video
simple duplication...can you send an email...follow-up phone call
maximum residual income...one team earns from multiple companies' payplans.
You can start a home business team for $9 month. You can join an Entrepreneur’s Assembly Line and learn in time and association with other social minded networkers. Learn more about how to position yourself in a Clearing House and receive a $299 account to start and Pay It Forward to others.
Robert Kiyosaki in his new book spends a lot of time talking about people investing in their financial education and different ways of preparing for prosperity even in a struggling economy. Read his USA Today excerpt about whether our current education system is helping or hinder us... http://blogs.usatoday.com/oped/2010/02/column-we-need-two-school-systems-.html
Your questions and comments are always important. Let's start by finding out more about what is important to you. If you're a stay at home Mom...my many kudos to you.

My favorite all time quote by Jim Rohn for all families and children:
Indecision is the thief of opportunity.
Every life form seems to strive to its maximum except human beings.
How tall will a tree grow? As tall as it possibly can.
Human beings, on the other hand,
have been given the dignity of choice.
You can choose to be all or you can choose to be less.
Why not stretch up to the full measure of the challenge
How to Follow the True Majority Nature of Network Marketing Home Business with OYC…not Minority Alpha Leaders
Once in awhile something crosses my desk that is so self-serving and madly contrary to what the true nature of this home business of network marketing is all about. It must be rebutted to show people an alternative, more compassionate inroad to this great home business. Thoughts and words are where people first start to agree or disagree about changing their own belief system. What if certain words will only help to close your mind, underrate and confuse you? Why not, let other words stand in service to your true potential and open your mind?.
Let’s first look at what a few network marketers proclaim. They commonly advertise themselves as the top dogs...the alpha leaders...that others want to follow. Huge advertising campaigns buy many internet marketing audiences and sometimes, it seems, its only their show biz pitch you hear. They offer programs to magnetize your personality...to tap into the phenomenon of an alpha male or female worthy of pursuit by countless wanna-bees. The image of a James Bond looks out with steely gaze and bravado confidence as you are led to think that every successful networker should assume a James Bond role (image and all).
For example, here are some of the benefits of their training (paraphrased some longer statements..I couldn’t make this up if I tried )
become naturally attractive...radiate confidence and focus your energies on achieving your goals
get a strong frame so others are sucked into your reality of what’s possible
have a lot of rules that others must follow when they are around you
everyone wants to work with you because you authorize your own hosting, lead generation and marketing campaigns
love and respect your body, dress with style, and live healthy lifestyles
show integrity and not tolerate disrespect or in fact ignore persons who don’t follow you
…and, get the hottest girls if you’re an Alpha male…I’m really not making this up..
The program is about attracting Alpha Leaders..you are either in their exclusive club or you are called another name, the Betas. These people are described as having “little confidence or value to offer others, so they simply flock to those who do have it in hopes that it will rub off. They are essentially, “unsure” of themselves, or still uncomfortable with the idea of being a leader. They typically live life in a state of “reaction”, where life events and other people dictate their rules and reality. It’s usually someone else’s fault. Beta entrepreneurs cannot exist..only Alphas who can “lead themselves through adversity and challenge”
What egotistical balderdash! Do you buy any of this untrue, unfair supposition?
How can any ONE person focus so much on his / her own biased PHENOMENAL SELF – when proper information can empower and secure financial well-being for so many well-meaning people. Doesn’t it sound like a little “conspiracy of the rich” getting their fingers into this common pie started at the grassroots level?
The foundation of network marketing has always been where average people with above average dreams can start a home business with minimal capital and maximize profits by helping each other to succeed.
Now I will agree with a couple of points:
People do not join a business, they join YOU.
Now, in a traditional businesses or corporations, you need strong, visionary leadership, top-down management, competition and rank advancement based on competence...
Network marketing is based on different concepts where every person is given the same tools, co-operation is the rule and the bottom-up is helped to rise to the top so everyone to experience success. This system is also known as “pay it forward” which can be found on the Entrepreneur’s Assembly Line as outlined by Own Your Channel.
Belief comes before results…what you think sets the tracks for your actions. So why would any one boost their ego at the expense of discriminating against the more democratic majority?
This is where the Alphas blindside themselves by looking too long in their own mirrors. Masterminds may work in other industries but not as well here. Network marketing is not about duplicating a roomful of celebrities and James Bond look-alikes comparing their “hit-Lists.”
The true concepts are based on leverage and duplication with the end result of residual incomes. In other words...every person can share a message from an expert with people they care about who also see the value of a simple plan to make long term income...without the worry of earning a per hour wage in an uncertain economic climate.
Network marketing is not about following alpha leaders and their expensive, time-consuming magnetizing programs that the average person has no reason to do. Give us a break…Its about a simple program that everybody can do like Own Your Channel. (read the many benefits in the previous post)
In a tough economy, the time is right for you and I, the common folk, to reclaim the traditional values of network marketing:
Network marketing is as much about personal freedom as it is about financial independence. It offers you an opportunity to build caring relationships..not just gain position of powers.
Network marketing is the simplest and easiest way for the average person to experience free enterprise, take control over their earning abilities, and start generating profits in a reasonable amount of time.
Network marketing eliminates the huge start-up costs and hassles normally associated with traditional business ownership or franchising. Think about it: where else can the average person have the opportunity to earn an executive-level income by working from home? Without having to go to college for years, pile up tons of student loans, and climb a corporate ladder that often they don't even enjoy?
What if...a high school drop-out can earn professional 6-digit income?
What if...someone considered "unemployable" can become a millionaire?
These stories happen in network marketing. Who would actually say NO to this exciting opportunity?
What if your success would not be hindered, but furthered, if you helped every person in your team contribute at a maximum level with no limits?
What if the Alpha Players played in their own backyards and stopped complicating a simple fair and democratic plan for success: Leverage Duplication Residual Can you send an email..can you watch a video..can you talk on the phone and see what people think?
What if..everyone started with a mere $9 a month to build a home business team?
Remember two things: Avoid following the Alphas...You are not a Beta..and never will be by choice.
Your questions and comments are important. Let's start with what you hope to accomplish.Annemarie
One of my favorite quotes by a great networker, Tim Sales: Why does food grow on planet earth, other than to help other life to grow?
Why are humans on planet earth, other than to help other life to grow?
There is only one real business on this planet-the business of making someone's life better
How to Network to build Net Worth with a powerful Own Your Channel Home Business
One Master Key..Two Problems..Three Reasons to OWN YOUR CHANNEL
There is an important difference between the words power and force. Power is where you control the resources that format your circumstances. Force is where you lack resources and are bandied about by circumstances that control you.
Interestingly enough, in our modern society..there are abundant resources for development and improvement...and no satisfactory excuses not to take advantage to empower oneself. However, unfortunately, lack of proper decision-making skills can sabotage your best interests. What if the 6 inches between your ears and a mere $9 month a month can stop you from taking a closer look at a revolutionary concept in the network marketing home business industry that can create financial security for your family for decades to come?
Consider a simple fact: Your individual NET WORTH is the value of all your assets minus any liabilities (mortgage, car loans, credit card balances)
Your future net worth will be determined whether your money will grow or shrink.
Now there is only one MASTER KEY to actually build any kind of wealth that YOU can control that gives you the power to live your self-directed lifestyle. It's even simple enough to use with the right system. Why complicate making money with a home business?
Sometimes, it only takes a little information (or a short video) to gain more power over your life and stop falling under the control of forces you don’t want.
Learn more with a powerful article by Kevin Hogan (Psy.D...public speaker, consultant,corporate trainer)..if current link is not available, request a copy as a letter. It talks about what really predicts wealth...all laid out in number forms. It shows the plan for wealth creation that is four times or more that of the average person. (All statistics courtesy of the U.S. Gov't)
Here are a couple of excerpts:
PROBLEM ONE: What guarantee do you feel you have with your retirement plan, 401K, stock portfolios or other pension plans that they will increase, maintain, or decrease their value?
Note:The average 401K has about $60,000 in it...after taxes, that's really about $35,000...about enough to live one year in "retirement." Have you followed along with what has happened to your 401K money in the last decade? How many people do you know are wealthy because of 401K investments? Note, it continues to be hinged to the stock market.
PROBLEM TWO: Income levels (US) show which groups of people make what kind of money ..some interesting statistics regarding net worth, education levels, earnings. For example, ONE KEY is if your kids graduate from college, they make 4 times as much as their non-College Grad friends. This is not optional, they ARE going to earn. That's the first key. The second key for them and for you is ultimately going to be the same...the MASTER KEY.
The median (half higher, half lower) income for a family (household) in the USA is now at $50,233. Where you really want to be is in that highest 20%...earning $100,000 per year or preferably much more.
Current income by WORK STATUS (who you work for) based on your household NET WORTH (assests minus debts)shows that...
Self Employed are WORTH 5-6 times what "normal people" are both at the median (middle) AND average!
SELF EMPLOYMENT is the SINGLE BIGGEST FACTOR for INDIVIDUAL WEALTH CREATION by far. Nothing else comes close
This is your own MASTER KEY that you have power to implement.
Kevin states: Every person who works for someone else should seriously consider having a small business on the side. Internet, brick and mortar, something where you determine your own income.
There is nothing wrong with having a "job." It's fine. BUT there is a LOT WRONG with believing that the average person can live 15 years on accumulated pension dollars dollars when these numbers are DECREASING...
One bad thing goes wrong..disability, divorce, sickness, death, gets fired (downsized,) and everything gets worse. Survival becomes the issue. Credit becomes stretched and the family is done, usually for life…very scary
The poorest people are not saving anything. They are building no equity and accumulating junk debt (toys) instead of quality debt (things that can go up in value like real estate, education, career related expenses, or a small at home business).
So you are encouraged to start a small home business, preferably one you love. Something that is fun, or rich with meaning for you. Most small businesses cost little to start and can cause an income much higher than any job they ever had, in just a few years time...sometimes faster.
Are you self-sabotaging your life? Are you letting your self-image set your financial “thermostat?” You won’t outperform what you think you are worth or can do. We make our information cutting-edge, simple and excuse-free.
Time to make a simple decision.. What if, one compelling video can show you how to start to increase your Net Worth starting today. Would you trake 32 minutes to watch extraordinary home business concept called Own your Channel. Or would you make excuses or assume you know this and fall back into old habits and forced constrictions.
2. Build one team and use the same team to double your income with a second company..not by doubling more customers or recruits…far more difficult
3. Join a network marketing company only when you have a team big enough to create positive cash flow. Minimum risk..income calculator shows you the profits upfront…explode recruiting efforts
This is the ONLY life that leads to security. It's the only life that brings people stability, safety, financial freedom and long-term happiness.
Change means re-adapting status quo or taking a leap of faith..but our team will make it fun, friendly and very profitable..Would you allow 6 inches and $9 month block your vision for unlimited potential?
Questions and comments are always important...call it self-empowerment.
Home Business Information: 3 simple lessons...present economy, an old moral, a new exciting solution with Own Your Channel
Your only limits to your realization of tomorrow will be your doubts of today.
Let us start with the premise that a profitable home business is the necessary lifeboat in the uncertain financial insecurities of the 21st century for many families for many reasons. As always, it is best to have the right information or blueprint before starting a home business…to see the big picture that can best meet your needs and long term security. In reality, in terms of understanding, there is both a highly complex volume of instructions or this simple summary and analogy of why you need a successful home business and what works best for everyone.
LESSON 1.. current stormy economy with no sunny breaks
Many economists say the US economy is still on a rough road which will grow by a paltry 2% a year for the next decade based on recent downturn and longer-term changes. At their January convention, they reached a consensus that the return to stronger growth patterns will be difficult. You can read the entire article or review the main points here.
higher taxes, less credit access and increased regulation will affects innovation and productivity by smaller companies
technological breakthroughs are difficult to predict
overhanging debt at the household and national levels
serious trade imbalance
real estate construction will continue to contract and lenders may take further write-downs
less capital for private small business to borrow and restrain in hiring workers
changing demographic with aging baby boomers who may postpone retirement
consumers make permanent changes in their spending habits as a result of the recession
The point is that there isn’t much we can do as individuals with the national economy and world-wide changes.
But there is something we can do about our personal economy with the right successful home business plan…a return to free enterprise and grassroots capitalism accessible by everyone.
LESSON TWO: A SIMPLE MORAL FOR OUR TIME
So it seems we have no control over all this unpredictable economic turbulence. However, is our only choice to be held for ransom, overwhelmed and confused? Or is there something small and democratic we can all use to find true entrepreneurship and make money from home?
Perhaps, this simple fable presents a different context to consider.
Once when a Lion was asleep a little Mouse began running up and down upon him. This soon wakened the Lion, who placed his huge paw upon him, and opened his big jaws to swallow him. "Pardon, O King," cried the little Mouse: "forgive me this time, I shall never forget it: who knows but what I may be able to do you a turn some of these days?"
The Lion was so tickled at the idea of the Mouse being able to help him, that he lifted up his paw and let him go.
Some time after the Lion was caught in a trap, and the hunters who desired to carry him alive to the King, tied him to a tree while they went in search of a wagon to carry him on.
Just then the little Mouse happened to pass by, and seeing the sad plight in which the Lion was, went up to him and soon gnawed away the ropes that bound the King of the Beasts.
"Was I not right?" said the little Mouse.
Little friends may prove great friends.
Simple tools may create great multiple streams of income.
So, here is the creative comparison. The Lion represents The Economy...whose survival depends on being all powerful…all variable to serve its pride of share holders...maximize profits...minimize costs...with less concern for individual well-beings. Now, we will either be victimized by it (The Economy) outright, live in fear with every bill payment or learn to manage and co-exist respectfully with it.
Now, what a coincidence that your small but vital connection is also called the “mouse.” It’s usually grey and can be held in your hand, be nimble, with the amazing ability to communicate worldwide. It can connect you to new ideas, home business opportunity, experts, and webinars to share valuable information in the comfort of your own home
The point is a simple mouse can help tame the all powerful lion-like Economy..no longer the victim but a victorious, efficient home business entrepreneur.
LESSON 3: A SIMPLE HOME BUSINESS TEAM CALLED OWN YOUR CHANNEL
First, you need to acknowledge that changes are here to stay and you have no control over the powerful forces out there…it’s a jungle out there and the biggest seem to survive best…but we are all entitled to equal opportunities.
Second, you need to know something as simple as a mouse can connect you to a host of opportunities, market trends, even multiple profits especially in network marketing (mlm) home business models..
Third, avoid the complications...the jungle of information, mistakes, expenses, lost time. Make sure you see the big picture before you start with a simple step by step system to win as big as you want. Understand how to set the proper compass points to reach the destination that will last a lifetime for your children and grandchildren. Address the problems of duplication and marketing. Understand how independent team ownership builds the one and only team you will ever have to build and continue to earn multiple incomes.

Home Business Satisfaction with Own Your Channel...Right Time, Right Order, Right Team
Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough. Oprah Winfrey
Welcome to a new decade…never before in history has a business opportunity held the potential to have such a positive impact on the lives of its customers…Paul Zane Pilzer.
Are you missing out by self-denial choice or simple lack of information?
Here are three things to think about:
ONE: RIGHT TIME TO EVALUATE YOUR CURRENT JOB SATISFACTION
Americans' job satisfaction falls to record low - Yahoo! News
Read the entire article or here is a quick summary..
Even Americans who are lucky enough to have work in this economy are becoming more unhappy with their jobs, according to a new survey that found only 45 percent of Americans are satisfied with their work for a variety of reasons:
Fewer workers consider their jobs to be interesting…any effect on productivity
Incomes have not kept up with inflation…household incomes have shrunk since 2000
Soaring cost of health insurance has eaten into workers' take-home pay
Less than half of workers feel secure in their jobs
Slightly more than half say they are satisfied with their commute to work (even as commute times have grown longer), like their co-workers and/or are satisfied with their boss.
How would you rate your job satisfaction in comparison? TWO: THE RIGHT PERSONAL ORDER..ROCKS BEFORE SAND
You've probably heard the old story...and it is never more important than to hear it one more time..
A teacher puts an empty jar on the table. Next to it, she has a pile of sand, a pile of pebbles, and a pile of rocks. Then she asks the students how to fit them all into the same jar. Many try, none succeed. Finally, the teacher reveals the simple logic. First, you put in the big rocks. Then the pebbles. Then the sand.
The point is that you can fit in everything you want to do if you've got the sense to "invert your order."
The rocks represent the big things in life…like security, free time,health, family,
relationships, faith, self-satisfaction to be the best you can be…
The pebbles represent other main things that matter in your life such as work, school, car, home
The sand signifies the remaining “small stuff” and material possessions like TV, clothes, trips
Imagine now that this jar signifies your life. The rocks are the truly important things, such as family, health and relationships. If all else was lost and only the rocks remained, your life would still be meaningful. The pebbles are the other things that matter in your life, such as work or school. The sand is everything else, the small stuff, the material possessions. If you put the sand into the jar first, there is no room for the pebbles or the rocks. The same can be applied to your lives. If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff, you will never have room for the things that are truly important.
THREE: THE RIGHT HOME BUSINESS ORDER…TEAM FIRST
The point is you can make money in any network marketing company if you have a large enough team.
Instead of finding a company and then building a team, we first build our team and then find multiple companies that want access to OUR channel. In other words, we keep our team membership as our own independent valuable asset. This one team can now join more than one mlm company and earn money from multiple opportunities simultaneously. This business strategy magnifies your earning potential by using the work you performed once to create revenue streams in multiple companies. Power comes from numbers.
Build this home-based team independently of any company affiliation.
Make it cost effective..a mere $9 a month for back office and replicating website…start-up money no longer an objection.
Provide a compelling video to explain the process with an unbeatable income calculator…know how much profit you will make before you join…no risk
Understand it’s not about product details, testimonials, industry knowledge, masterminds, branding, internet expertise, marketing expenses…it’s about knowing 3 motivated people who want the same thing as you do.
It’s about taking a few minutes to watch a compelling video and getting your questions answered.
It’s about getting your priorities right and working with like-minded people who care. It’s about believing you are at the right time, the right place and deserve better.
It's about making this decade the best you can be for yourself and your family.
Your questions and comments are always important. Be sure to check out a special Mini-Program for Maxi-Profits ...generic, comprehensive overview of what works in this special network marketing home business.
Two great gifts: Gift of wisdom from the 1900’s and gift of fearless self-belief to home business success with Own Your Channel.
“One’s mind, once stretched by a new idea, never regains its original dimensions.” (Oliver Wendell Holmes)
In the spirit of sharing here is one gift of wisdom as we celebrate this one special holiday among many others. It is the story of how one man earned $5 million dollars in the early 1900’s when the common working wage was about $400 a year, a lawyer earned $2500 annually, and a 4-cylinder, five-passenger car was $1250. He repeated one action over and over again. His fortune allowed him to found a small seminary to train Baptist ministers. That school soon grew into Temple University, one of the first universities to offer affordable education to working-class Americans: it stands today as the most visible example of his legacy and vision.
His name was Reverend Russell Conwell. In an era when many Americans would pack public halls to hear speeches given by great citizens of their day, Russell Conwell read his world-famous lecture hundreds of times over and over again. It was titled "Acres of Diamonds," and it was delivered more than 6,000 times to audiences.
His speech told the story of a farmer who sold his farm so he could travel overseas searching for diamonds. After a lifetime of searching, he returned home penniless, having never found treasure.
In the meantime, one day, the man who purchased his farm noticed a sparkle in the stream running through the property. He waded into the water and found – a diamond!
Turns out, the farm was sitting on one of the world’s largest diamond mines, which made the new owner a fortune beyond his imagination or dreams.
The point of Conwell’s speech: you can find a fortune literally in your own backyard, if you just take the time to look for it.
The reverend concluded his talk by saying: “Your diamonds are not in far distant mountains or in yonder seas. They are in your own backyard if you but dig for them.”
So what gems can we gather from this story a century later? Several, actually, if we dig deep enough.
Gem #1: the perennial lesson that the rewards of work, education, and finding the riches of life can be found “in one's own back yard.” I would add “within your mental framework.” It doesn’t matter what your walk in life. There are no physical obstacles to stop you.
Gem #2: the resources to achieve all good things…opportunity, service, achievement, and fortune are in your hands…no need for a futile search to emulate them in other backyards.
Gem #3: just imagine how the resources of our Information Technology are infinitely more available now than compared to a 100 years ago…We now have an electronic virtual transmission of the power of knowledge or “intellectual distribution” without boundaries or limitations. Within the reach of our fingertips, we can share valuable social networking, a new brilliant reverse logic to a standard way of networking, a compelling video..a webinar..an unprecedented opportunity..and joint ventures.
What if, you repeated one action over and over again with the power of a phone or keyboard.
It starts by sharing a simple link to a couple of expert videos.
But it’s not the Grinch we must avoid…but rather the “kink to the link”..if you wish. This gift of information is invaluable only if you see the purpose and others also see the value.
This first gift of wisdom is priceless only if we also offer the second gift of self-belief both to ourselves and to others. We need to avoid the "kink" of assumption of not looking or negation by inaction.
The second gift is something we can only open from within. Imagine if you can wrap yourself as a present and “present” yourself to your family, your community and, now essentially, the world. What would your “presence” offer to those who “open” your thoughts and actions? Is it heroes of hope or enemies of fear?
Once more, let Jim Rohn’s wisdom help to “face the enemies within” and secure the reasons to discover change, hope and success.
We are not born with courage, but neither are we born with fear.Maybe some of our fears are brought on by your own experiences, by what someone has told you, by what you've read in the papers. Some fears are valid, like walking alone in a bad part of town at two o'clock in the morning. But once you learn to avoid that situation,you won't need to live in fear of it.
Fears, even the most basic ones, can totally destroy our ambitions. Fear can destroy fortunes. Fear can destroy relationships. Fear, if left unchecked, can destroy our lives. Fear is one of the many enemies lurking inside us.
Let me tell you about four other enemies we face from within.
The first enemy that you've got to destroy before it destroys you is indifference.
What a tragic disease this is. "Ho-hum, let it slide. I'll just drift along." Here's one problem with drifting: you can't drift your way to the top of the mountain.
The second enemy we face is indecision. Indecision is the thief of opportunity and enterprise. It will steal your chances for a better future. Take a sword to this enemy.
The third enemy inside is doubt. Sure, there's room for healthy skepticism. You can't believe everything. But you also can't let doubt take over. Many people
doubt the past, doubt the future, doubt each other, doubt the
government, doubt the possibilities and doubt the opportunities. Worse of all, they doubt themselves. I'm telling you, doubt will destroy your life and your chances of success. It will empty both your bank account and your heart. Doubt is an enemy Go after it. Get rid of it.
The fourth enemy within is worry. We've all got to worry some. Just don't let it conquer you.
Instead, let it alarm you. Worry can be useful. If you step off the curb in New York City and a taxi is coming, you've got to worry. But you can't let worry loose like a mad dog that drives you into a small corner. Here's what you've got to do with your worries: drive them into a small corner. Whatever is out to get you, you've got to get it. Whatever is pushing on you, you've got to push back.
Do battle with the enemy. Do battle with your fears. Build your courage to fight what's holding you back, what's keeping you from your goals and dreams. Be courageous in your life and in your actions.
Now you have two gifts: the gift of valuable information..how to be an entrepreneur..how to join a team of veteran successful business people. PLUS.. the gift of self-belief with no timidity, no worry, no doubt, no indifference, no indecision. The mental apparitions of excuses and fears will no longer constrict your physical abundance.
Home Business News with Own Your Channel Network Marketing Done Right..the Bad, the Good, the Best
“Don’t become a victim of yourself. Forget about the thief waiting in the alley; what about the thief in your mind?”Jim Rohn
The bad news is that this recession has caused an unemployment rate that hovers about 10%. Joblessness has wreaked financial and emotional changes and hardships for countless people. The good news is that Own Your Channel offers real stewardship and opportunity to become self-employed with a profitable home business. The best news is that change begins at a personal level..and no one can calls us to action like Jim Rohn.
BAD NEWS
Recently a New York Times/CBS Poll surveyed 708 unemployed adults. You can read the entire article and actual people.Poll reveals depth and trauma of joblessness
Unemployment has caused major life changes and mental health issues for millions of Americans, a New York Times/CBS News poll found.
Now here are some of the realities faced by unemployed workers which applied to nearly half of them
borrowed money from friends or relatives
cut back on doctor’s visits or medical treatments and did not have health insurance
suffered from depression, anxiety, insomnia
encountered more difficulties with conflicts and arguments
had trouble maintaining even the basic necessities ,paying house payments and other bills
faced rising foreclosures and evictions
more embarrassed and ashamed of being out of work (men more so than women)
majority were rethinking career choices, moving, retraining
took on additional hours or another job to make ends meet (or spouse)
Does receiving unemployment benefits cover basic necessities…61 percent said no.
Does the job market look promising for future security… 39 percent anticipate improvement, 36 percent expect it will stay the same, and 22 percent say it will get worse.
Who or what is to blame for this high unemployment rate?
The highest blame went first to government and politicians (37%), banks (8%), globalization (8%) and other causes
Another interesting note: Approximately 30% people in a nationwide poll said their salary had been cut due to bad economic conditions.
GOOD NEWS
So is there a silver lining in this stormy economic prediction?
A network marketing home business is an ideal solution but it must be done right. The normal sequence must be reversed. Given a choice, what sequence would you choose:
a) join a top network marketing company ($50 for kit)..order autoshipment product ($100 -200 monthly (or more)..training/marketing materials ($100 or more)..time commitment steep learning curve..then build your team hoping others will pay the cost in dollars and hours.
b) build a home business team ($9 a month). When the team is large enough then join a top network marketing company and make calculated profits from Day 1. Your training/marketing is all about telling others one simple truth: if you have a big enough team, you'll make money in ANY network marketing company.
A compelling video explains how this works.
BEST NEWS
Only you turn that first page away from Bad News. Only you can look in the mirror and decide to choose to make changes. You need to believe you deserve better..no way to blame others..no one else to lift your veil of frustration..no excuses with a legitimate, healthy home business you can start to build for $9 a month.
And while you’re looking in the mirror..repeat these words by Jim Rohn:
Each of us has two distinct choices to make about what we will do with our lives. The first choice we can make is to be less than we have the capacity to be. To earn less. To have less. To read less and think less. To try less and discipline ourselves less. These are the choices that lead to an empty life. These are the choices that, once made, lead to a life of constant apprehension instead of a life of wondrous anticipation.
And the second choice? To do it all! To become all that we can possibly be. To read every book that we possibly can. To earn as much as we possibly can. To give and share as much as we possibly can. To strive and produce and accomplish as much as we possibly can. All of us have the choice.
To do or not to do. To be or not to be. To be all or to be less or to be nothing at all.
Like the tree, it would be a worthy challenge for us all to stretch upward and outward to the full measure of our capabilities. Why not do all that we can, every moment that we can, the best that we can, for as long as we can?
Our ultimate life objective should be to create as much as our talent and ability and desire will permit. To settle for doing less than we could do is to fail in this worthiest of undertakings.
What if: the economic recession will continue to track on and you choose only to blame others and make excuses
What if: a simple video can explain a new and exciting home business opportunity with extraordinary income?
What if: repeating Jim Rohn’s words a few times a day will change our belief system and empower our future.
What if..you never try and another year passes by...
What if..we take the chance to talk about your dreams, achievements and what you would like to accomplish. Your comments and questions are always welcome.
How Own Your Channel Helps to Give More Financial Security in Tough Economy
My interest is in the future because I am going to spend the rest of my life there." Kettering
Recently I read an excellent article by Brian Tracy about Creating Your Own Security. Several points were made that were frightening about a future that is no longer safely predictable. The realization dawned that my family’s financial future with Own Your Channel was not so daunting.
Here are some of the worthwhile points to ponder:
Change is increasing and happening in unexpected ways..but how can you keep earning money..no matter what
You can't do much about what's happening. But you can -- and should -- think seriously about what all this change means in terms of your financial security.
One of the greatest mistakes you can make -- the one with the worst long-term consequences -- is to think only about the present and give very little thought to your ability to make a good living in the years ahead.
Today, a person entering the workforce can expect to have five careers between the ages of 21 and 65, and 14 full-time jobs lasting two years or more.
40 percent of American employees in the 21st century will be "contingency" workers (Fortune Magazine). This means that they will never work permanently for any company. They will continue to move from job to job, earning less money than full-time employees and accruing few, if any, benefits.
Imagine what your job will look like five years from now. What you already know -- your accumulated knowledge and experience -- is becoming obsolete bit by bit, day by day. Knowledge in your field is probably doubling every five years.
It costs a company approximately double your salary to employ you -- in terms of their investment in space, benefits, and other resources. And of course, they have to make a profit on top of that. Therefore, what you contribute to your company's bottom line must be considerably greater than the amount you are receiving... or you will find yourself unemployed.
Your most valuable assets are continuous self-improvement. You need to position yourself to develop the skills you need to be a producitive part of the economy no matter what direction it goes in.
In other words, what is your plan for your financial future?
Own Your Channel has simplified my plan with brilliant logic and multiple streams of income. My personal economy has stabilized.
And part of the brilliance is I don’t have to spend years and hundreds or thousands of dollars to participate and develop these business skills or financial potential. I plug into the proven concepts of leverage (share an expert’s message), duplication (simple marketing plan that everyone can do) and residual commissions (handsome rewards for sharing the message)
I invite people to listen to a compelling video and/or webinar. I ask the simple question: Have you ever seen anything like this before?
And it even provides the most superlative self-development training. What if, I share with new prospects and team members these simple affirmations to be said on a daily basis. Just think, isn't this the most amazing business training you can offer anyone:
..excerpted from Brian Tracy's The 100 Absolutely Unbreakable Laws of Business Success
I believe every person has within themselves inexhaustible reserves of potential they have never even come close to realizing.
I believe each person has far more intelligence than they have ever used.
I believe each person is more creative than he or she has ever imagined.
I believe the greatest achievements of your life lie ahead of you.
I believe the happiest moments of your life are yet to come.
I believe the greatest successes you will ever attain are still waiting for you on the road ahead.
And, I believe through learning and application of what you learn, you can solve any problem, overcome any obstacle and achieve any goal that you can set for yourself.
My family's future has never looked more exciting. My gratitude is boundless for a simple home business system that everyone can do and a self-belief system that focuses on the positives. There are no regrets or excuses. What about yours?
Questions and comments are important. Let's discuss what you hope to achieve with your life's purpose and how we can help. 250 365 6916
How Own Your Channel makes me a better network marketer, and it can help your success, too
I just came across a statement signed “with love” from a networker praising his mentor for his video which lasted 77 minutes and resulted in his writing 3 pages of notes!
What’s the next step..passing this information to a friend or prospect and expecting him or her to repeat the “love message,” watch the long video and arduously take notes as well.
Is this what creating and supporting a home business team is all about?
Been there, done that, and only a few hardy souls ventured into this kind of hard-to-duplicate downline.
Now that I have the foresight and good fortune to be part of the independent Own Your Channel, I would never inflict that kind of programming on anyone again.
Own Your Channel has opened two main considerations for all networkers:
1. How do we sponsor a team member?
2. What does it mean to be part of a team?
First, how do we sponsor a team member?
We invite people to join their own independent home business team.
The cost is $9 a month ($24 initial set up fee for back office set-up)
The emphasis is on a better lifestyle and more time freedom and financial security. At this point, it’s not about products, companies, payplans, bonuses, testimonials
We ask some basic questions and listen to why people are looking for a change..
1. How serious are you about doing something better with your life? ...Very ...Maybe ....Not
Would you put your family’s life on hold for $9 a month?
2. Here are 2 videos to watch....introductory...whole story. Have you ever seen anything like this before?
3. Do you know 3 other people also interested in good health and making some extra money from home…
Second, what does it mean to be part of a supportive home business team?
Network marketing is the only home business model that allows every person who wants a successful home business to start with minimal capital and earn residual profits based on leverage and duplication.
However, as can be seen by the opening statement..this fundamentally equal home-based opportunity for every body can be severely challenged by complicated, expensive, time-consuming information overload that simply can’t be replicated by regular everyday people busy making a living.
But don’t we also deserve an equal chance at a simple home business with the potential for fortune and freedom?
…we need to address doubts and depressions about an uncertain economy
…we have simple tools…phone, computer, handshake, smile
…we have people skills and empathy to help others
…we can learn new skills and reflect on goals, improvement and dreams
…we can experience a simple to follow system without volumes of details
…we believe in asking, giving, sharing and receiving
My wish for my team members is not long arduous videos and pages of notes followed by more internet “magnetic branding” exercises.
My wish for my team members is to listen to each other…to recognize each other with stories of success..to believe in winning together..to inspire a personal empowerment in all areas of living.
Network marketing companies give us the vehicle by which to make money..but it is our team spirit and dreams that drive it.
Denis Waitley says the best credo for building a home business team…
The five most important words a leader can speak are: “I am proud of you.”
The four most important are: “What is your opinion?”
The three most important are: “If you please.”
The two most important are: “Thank you.”
And the most important single word of all is: “You!”
This Own Your Channel opportunity has opened a new world of friendships, partnerships and prosperity. It starts with a simple question: How serious are you about doing something better with your life and family’s life?
Watch the videos. Guaranteed..you will not look at another network marketing opportunity the same way again. Your comments and questions are always welcome. Annemarie 250 365 6916
How to go from Clutter to Clarity in network marketing home business
I’m moving on up..from clutter to clarity in my network markting home business in both a physical and a mental space.
I am physically moving from my downstairs home office to a new upstairs office that now adjoins a new backyard deck and patio.
In the process of moving, I’m also sorting and eliminating a lot of paper work. A lot of learning..but not much earning.
Do I regret all the paper work once managed? Not really, beause it has provided a solid foundation about network marketing principles and practices. Somewhat, because I could have spent more time with family and friends.
Would I recommend anybody else to follow or duplicate these calls, notes, downloads, research, training, manuals and binders full of transcriptions?
Never, not now... because I fully embrace the clarity and liberty with Own Your Channel.
Here is an example.
One turquoise blue binder about 4 inches thick held the majority of the main categories of notes. At one time, I thought a one-binder home business was actually a selling feature. Now it is one website and one video. Things are moving on up for everyone to participate in this wonderful business..binder or not. All you really need is a phone, a computer and a desire for something better or you and your family..
Here is a quick summation of my old “basement” home business plan (5 years in the making)...and this is just the first 2 pages!
...5 steps Getting Started Checklist for new enrollees
...Goal Sheet and Mission Statement (1 to 5 years)
...procedures for Profit Bonus Center Systems (12 variables..which works best for you)
...link for audio training (Word Document) if missed calls (each is one hour in duration..200 calls approx.
...60 second script to memorize (more like 5 minutes)
...System, Strategy, Marketing, Leadership modules and manuals
...overview corporate team presentations…know your product and testimonials
...six month wealth creation and debt elimination plan (OK..this was important to review)
...retailing strategy
...Diamond Team Resource List (private team site, private coaching, cutting edge technology, “hottest” leads in the industry, personal development systems, and much more)
The cover letter concludes with…”There is a ton of information here..but don’t worry…the great thing about this business is you have a sponsor and team to back you up, and be there every step of the way to insure your success.” Ever wonder why so many people give up in this industry between the time it takes to sponsor new people and then the time it takes to train them? Sounds like trading one full-time job for another. I know networkers who work 10 to 12 hours a day..is this the time freedom we search for or advocate for others?
If you feel burdened with an overload of "stuff", I welcome you to also be enlightened with Own Your Channel...and the one and only team you will ever have to build.
My new “upstairs” home business plan is uncluttered and uncomplicated with no stringy cobwebs of information. It is simple with “sunny” mass appeal that everyone can do...the true foundation of network marketing.
I enjoy talking with real people and asking 3 simple questions:
1. Are you serious, really serious, about doing something different to improve your lifestyle and your family’s?
2. Are you able to watch two videos..5 minutes introduction and/or 37 minutes whole story?
3. Do you know 3 people who are also interested or serious about improving their lifestyle?
This is a call to action for all networkers to move on up from old to new, from drudgery to brilliance, from winter to spring...from 5 years of effort to 5 minutes of education.
Your questions and comments are always appreciated. Annemarie 250 365 6916
There is not much we can do about the national economy..downsizing,unemployment,mortgag es,credit crunch,investments, savings,social security.

Check the video, call me and let's talk about what you want and how we can help you. Create your own reality..it's easier than you may think. - created at http://animoto.com
How Own Your Channel has liberated my home business..and it can do the same for every networker
It was one of my brightest days when I discovered Own Your Channel as a concept for building a significant and profitable home business. It is based on the brilliant logical sequence...build ateam first...then capitalize on multiple network marketing companies. Calculate clearly what your profits will be before you start, make money on Day 1, and repeat the successful process again and again.
Own Your Channel has liberated my bank account. I am no longer concerned with expensive web traffic tools and tactics…they are too time consuming and they just plain don’t work. I no longer have to risk hundreds of dollars paying for autoshipments while I "pound the phone" looking for partners who want to spend hundreds of dollars also while hunting on the internet for prospects.
Own Your Channel has liberated my time. I want to talk to real prospects who are interested in improving their lifestyles and financial futures. It is sometimes easy to say “no” to a product but to financial independence and security… starting at $9 a month...that’s harder and more irresponsible from which to turn away.
Here is what I no longer have to do…and you can easily substitute the word YOU in place of I..
I (you) don’t do expensive pay per click ads...I only need 3 serious people who want a positive change in their lifestyle.
I (you) don’t do traffic exchanges anymore promoting someone else’s company...drudgery to get a click or two
I (you) don’t have to listen to SEO versus Adwords techniques to try and cope with ever- changing rules with internet marketing
I (you) can cancel so called targeted safelists..no more emails that never get read
I (you) don’t have to order any more e-books, courses…there is a low-level training…a few webinars to help create relationships and a social site for sharing stories, photos and more.
I (you) instantly delete weird emails with statements like instant passive income, endless leads, gargantuan traffic surges...no need to search anymore
Imagine, I (you) don’t need to concentrate on optin lists, leads, conversions, web pages, software, tracking, niches, codes, social bookmarks, or write continuous blogs for “self-branding” purposes. This home business is not about self-proclaimed virtues of “magnetic,” “attractive” experts but about the unselfish values of every family helping each other. There are no corporate trappings here...the way it should be in a free enterprise system.
I (you) don’t need to make technology a friend. Everyone can pick up the phone and introduce this brilliant concept and follow-up with an invitation to watch an amazing video.
I (you) don’t need to worry about researching the market, presenting in-depth details about product benefits, sales, selling strategies, step-by-step guides and scripts.
I (you) believe with a simple program, we even don’t need costly, long term coaching programs or “accountability partners” looking over our shoulder…our success will motivate us with protection and payout from a large team. Our self-development, self-confidence and self-esteem will rise proportionately with our profits. Others will knock on our doors to find out more about this extraordinary home business opportunity.
And you and I certainly don’t need somebody telling us what 7 steps to follow to manifest our dreams and destiny…We are powerful, capable human beings with equal rights who deserve prosperity and abundance in our lives.
I give thanks every day for the friendship of the networker who introduced me to Own Your Channel. I respect the leadership and fully support their vision of free enterprise and equal opportunity. You are invited to check out this video..guaranteed you have not seen anything like this. Questions and comments are welcome, as always, Annemarie 250 365 6916.
How Own Your Channel will liberate your network marketing home business and double your income..if you have 5 minutes to share..
The special emphasis is on liberate. Liberty is such an important word ranking along with independence, free enterprise and pursuit of happiness.
Liberty is freedom from control of fate or necessity…enjoying privileges and rights
And, to some degree, network marketing as a home business strives to reach these lofty goals and visions.
Where else can the average person have the opportunity to earn an executive-level income by working from home...without business experience, climbing corporate ladders, accruing college loans…regardless of background, culture, gender, age, or ethnicity.
It is a 60 year old business model based on building relationships and partnerships to make a difference with products and opportunity. Over the decades it seems to have evolved, along with technology and bureaucracy, into a more complex institution with grand stand plans and exclusive leadership models that are far removed from basic concepts that work for the majority of average people. The expectation is to start with 3 people which can be the beginning of a large successful organization.
My latest experiences in this grassroots industry has been over-saturated with top-gun gurus, advertising expenses, endless training, list-building, time consuming social media....trying to brand oneself in the middle of massive herds of other self-branding online marketers. This has been a painful and expensive experience to say the least..and it doesn’t ring true for the average part-time home business networker.
Now there is a new dawning with a new knight called OYC. It is challenging this complex system that very few people can hope to follow, much less achieve.
Networkers are now faced with a new mindset:
How simple it is to replicate home business success:
build a team first for $9 a month..own your own distribution channel, and when ready..move into residual profits..again and again..
However, because it requires challenging common assumptions and learning something new..even networkers fall back into the 4 stages of learning a new skill:
Stage 1: don’t know that they don’t know (unconscious)
Stage 2: know I don’t know but I will begin to work on learning it (conscious)
Stage 3: know what you need to know and you know you can do it (competence)
Stage 4: know you can perform the skill without even thinking about it (habit or mastery)
The bottom line is that it will take time and perseverance to expect even networkers to realize that building one team and working for one company is a flawed model. It means having to phone people at least four times. The simple message always stresses the value of watching the 5 minute introductory video and then the whole story.
Personally, I don’t get how people don’t “get it.” But I appreciate it is still a learning process…even if this time we are de-structuring a complex model to its basic elements that everybody can do. We are still pioneers…even though our journey is to return to simplicity and core democratic values.
My plan is to call people four times with the invitation to watch the amazing videos…or leave voice mail messages.
For those who respond, it will be my privilege to share OYC’s liberating message:
How simple is it to replicate a successful home business:
build a home business team first for $9 a month..own your own distribution channel and when ready..move into residual profits..again and again..
Who will put their life (and liberty) on hold for $9 month?
For those who do not respond..it is my sincere wish…that in time, curioisity, and tempered assumptions, they, too, will take a look.
That is the nature of human nature..similar to this an anaolgy
"A group of tourists sits in a bus that is passing through gorgeously beautiful country; lakes and mountains and green fields and rivers. But the shades of the bus are pulled down. They do not have the slightest idea of what lies beyond the windows of the bus...squabbling over who will have the seat of honor in the bus..applauded..considered. And so they remain till the journey's end." Anthony de Mello
You are invited to watch an amazing revolutionary video. Your questions and comments are important. Let's talk about what you hope to achieve with a successful home business.
HOW OWN YOUR CHANNEL ANSWERS THE THREE BIG QUESTIONS for NETWORK MARKETING HOME BUSINESS SUCCESS
There is a revolution happening in the home business network marketing industry..and the timing couldn’t be better. Our national economy is changing..credit is crunching, jobs are bleeding, wealth is disappearing, and financial security is like a volley ball...depending on who is spiking it. It only makes sense when nothing else seems to, to build a personal economy based on free enterprise principles and basic human values.
The Network Marketing business model has been a foundation for many home based business entrepreneurs.
Its founding principle allows the average person with above average dreams and low-start-up capital to build long-term residual profits that can equal professional incomes from the comfort of their homes.
No wonder so many people have hopes and try..and so many don’t make it...for a variety of reasons. It is time stop doing what doesn’t duplicate or work. It is timely to bring this industry back to public acceptance and respect based on satisfactory performance.
And often, when the student is wanting, the teacher appears.
So, with perfect timing, a new company called Own Your Channel is becoming a major player in helping networkers achieve the kind of success they are looking for and deserve.
Here are THREE important answers that can make all the difference in your network marketing success.
1. Why should I become member of OYC..two huge benefits
you own your sales distribution channel outside of any company. Your valuable asset is the people you contact...they don't belong to any company
your team can now join multiple companies. You can be in two, three, even four companies collectively and earn money from your single team in multiple opportunities simultaneously. This business strategy magnifies your earning potential by using the work you performed once to create revenue streams in multiple companies.
2. How does it work..SIMPLICITY
keep it simple..no more requirement other than to get 3 personally sponsored people
keep it cheap.. $25.00 to join the co-op and a monthly fee of $9.00 to cover the cost of webserver hosting services
keep it smart.. leverage your single home business team..not overload of details…payplans, products, testimonials, etc
keep it profitable…because you are bringing in a readymade team..you will earn money from day one as well as cover the sign up fees and the monthly autoship. As your group grows, you will become more and more profitable.
3.WHAT IF, I MISS OUT..by assuming or only knowing this much...
Well, bring out your old weather worn tools, maps and hard hats because the competition blows fiercely, especially with internet function.
Probably, you will work the “hard” way building your downline membership. You will take massive amounts of time and money to build your framework with contacts who may or may not follow your construction plan. You will be at the mercy and “stormy” wiles of company’s policies and if something happens..you may be left without a ship to sail. What a pity if you had to start again from scratch.
The power of Own Your Channel comes from numbers. We can move together as one group, and, even, dictate terms when it comes to negotiating with new companies we add. This will allow us to override policies and procedures that may present conflicts with our business plan.
I can only imagine what Ferdinand Magellan, as the first European, thought as he viewed the Pacific Ocean for the first time. Probably, with the same breath, I view this extraordinary home business opportunity. Every family now has access to a profitable home business in network marketing based on the time proven concepts of leverage and duplication..
Be one of the first to catch this last free enterprise system. Watch the video whatever else you do today.
Your questions and comments are always important. We are standing by to help you.
Serious questions need truthful answers about network marketing home business
What if, I can show you how you can start to build a home business for $9 a month with the potential of making thousands per month…then doubling or even tripling that income with no extra effort?
There is only ONE way you can logically achieve this potential..through the concepts of leverage and duplication found only in the network marketing home business industry.
Now..you may already have some opinions about network marketing or MLM (personal or hearsay)..also known as direct consumer marketing or referral marketing.
You may have heard a truckload of criticisms BUT also, at the same time, you may have wondered how people continue to make “truckloads of money” working from home...and how can I make it work for me and my family.
The exciting news is that this time-proven industry has naturally evolved with new technologies and brand new changes. You now have the option of re-evaluating your options:
a reverse equation…a change of sequence has emerged…and this will make all the difference.
QUESTION: What is the one simple truth about network marketing?
ANSWER: The one simple truth is this: Your income is determined by the size of your team. Small team… Small money. Big team… BIG money! And it’s true for EVERY company, regardless of their market or product. Some companies do pay better than others but this fact is true for EVERY company.
QUESTION: What is the most important thing I need to do?
ANSWER: The most important thing to focus on is to how to build a team because the size of your team is the ONLY factor that determines your paycheck. If you can’t build a team..why bother with hype and training?
QUESTION: Shouldn't I focus on selling product(s) as the most important thing?
ANSWER: It’s critically important to build a team FIRST BEFORE trying to sell product
Make sure your team or sales channel is in place. You can’t sell products with an imaginary team.
QUESTION: How do I build a home business team first?
ANSWER: A new company called Own Your Channel will provide the infrastructure you need to grow your team first OUTSIDE (independently) of any specific network marketing company.
QUESTION: What are the benefits of having your own home based team?
ANSWER: You now have ownership of your own team..it is your own sales distribution channel if you wish. You are now able to use it for more than one product from one company. You can now earn money from multiple network marketing companies using the same team. PS..Where do you think Walmart would be today if they had spent all that money building stores and then decided to sell a single product from a single company?
QUESTION: How can I double or triple (or more) my money with the same effort?
ANSWER: You only have to build your team or channel ONCE. Because you are independent of any single company you may join other companies. For example, let’s say over time you join 4 companies with your team. You will have quadrupled your profits and it didn’t take any more effort to build four companies than it did for one. That’s a heck of lot easier than quadrupling the number of people on your team…agree?
Brilliant logic and compensation!
QUESTION: Agree, sounds very logical and brilliant and I can sure use some extra cash and definitely some long-term security. By the way, how much is this going to cost me..
ANSWER: $24 to register for back office management and then a mere $9 a month. You can build your team cheaply and quickly. When you are ready with large enough numbers, then you can plug into a network marketing company and make money from Day1.
QUESTION: How do I get started? I’m ALL in..I won’t put my life's potential on hold for $9 a month.
ANSWER: Why don’t you first check out some more information about Own Your Channel at my website:
There are a couple of short videos explaining this business in detail. It’s literally changing the market. I’m looking forward to anwering any questions or comments.
How to Promote Home Business Success with Own Your Channel (OYC)
Here is a BIG IDEA whose time has come.
Never promote another network marketing company...what’s that you say..
You can now choose to market your own home business team..not somebody elses
TWO STATEMENTS THAT CAN CHANGE YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE
1.Here’s how OYC business model works...you can take this straight to the bank:
Do you know 3 people serious about making some extra money from home or building long term financial independence?
Everyone knows 3 good people.
(But should you want to build a bigger team (which means bigger money), the Project will provide advanced tools which allow you to market in Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, and other social network sites. You will be given step-by-step instructions on how to use these tools. No degree in computers required)
2. Here’s what you don’t need to do..anymore
spend a lot of money to start a network marketing home business and expect others to follow your example
spend weeks or months to learn about products, testimonials, compensation plans and marketing strategies and meetings
spend $100’s or $1000’s on training by experts to be Magnetically Attractive to followers only to be burdened with endless hours of online marketing and competition
Why are we spending money to market another people’s companies? I do not need to buy large numbers of brochures, newspapers, books, or DVD’s anymore.
Why are we made to feel we need self-development courses to be someone “special” or unique? We are special enough...we have diverse backgrounds, cultures, education, skills but with some basic effort we can also access market resources, more democratic free-enterprise systems and definitely deserve more control over our own economy in troubled times.
Own Your Channel offers you a thriving team of entrepreneurs and the necessary tools for management and training to access multiple companies and their payplans.
I truly feel I am standing on a hill…unencumbered, enlightened, supported with the vista
of financial opportunity all around me..and all I have to do is ask:
“Bob, when it comes to network marketing, there is one simple truth. And it’s true for
EVERY company, regardless of their market or product. The one simple truth is this: Your income is determined by the size of your team. Small team… Small money. Big team… BIG money!
Why don’t I give you my website so you can get some more information on Own Your Channel. There are a couple of short videos explaining this business in detail. It’s literally changing the market. I’ll give you a call tomorrow to answer any questions you might have.”

Who do you think might say..Sorry, not interested in a home business team for $9 a month.
How to start Home business..two serious conclusions about network marketing and a brand new idea..part 1
There have been many blogs here about the network marketing model as the greatest simple home business. We have talked about the founding principle, three main business concepts, a simple marketing formula as well as things to watch for and things to run away from. We have looked at network marketing from different channels but never from owning your own channel…it’s a “road not taken” yet..and this will make all the difference.
Network marketing as a viable business model has much to offer, but first a major problem needs to be addressed..
How difficult is it to sponsor people directly into mlm companies?
Is this the reason why it seems nearly impossible for the average person to succeed?
Thank goodness, no one can assume they know it all and learning is progress..so here are TWO serious conclusions from a friend and mentor about a simple, effective answer. Learn how you can start a network marketing home business to ensure success on your terms.
Conclusion #1:
My first conclusion was this: no matter what the company is or what products it ships or what markets it targets, there is one thing that is true for EVERY network marketing company. And that is,
THE SIZE OF YOUR TEAM DETERMINES THE SIZE OF YOUR CHECK!!!
Since network marketing, like any business, is based on sales volume, it is safe to say no other variable even comes close to approaching the importance of the size of your team. Yes, some companies pay better than others and that no one wants to sell snake oil, but the truth is that the best product in the world can’t replace a large and active distribution channel. No real business would buy product and then warehouse that product while they developed a distribution channel. They’d build the channel first, and then buy the product.
Conclusion #2:
My second conclusion was that spending time and money building a large distribution channel (or sales channel) couldn’t be justified if the business model required selling a single product from a single company. Where would Sam Walton be today if he had spent billions of dollars building Walmart Supercenters all over the country only to put a single product on the shelf? He’d be out of business. Why do we assume we can do what he could not do? In other words, building a business around a single company is seriously flawed.
If we are going to build a sales team (or channel), we should maximize our investment and put multiple products on the shelf.
So the results of my research are:
1. There is no other factor as important as the size of your team or sales channel. The size of your team determines the size of your check. Because of this fact, it seems to be putting the cart before the horse by joining a company before you start building your team.
2. You cannot justify the expense of building a sales channel (team or downline) if you plan to sell a single product from a single company.
A new idea is born:
It all boils down to one simple truth: if you have a big enough team, you'll make money in ANY network marketing company.
“Own Your Channel” (OYC) has created an entirely new approach to solve this problem. Instead of finding a company and then building our team, we first build our team and then find multiple companies that want access to OUR channel. In other words..
you keep your asset..your team. It may be the only team you may ever have to build.
We invite you to check this new business concept over wisely..it is brilliantly logical to multiply maximum compensation..it is grassroots capitalism like it was meant to be from the beginning..
1. Start a business with almost no financial risk
2. Build a large direct sales organization (channel) that you control
3. Use that channel to distribute multiple products from multiple companies
4. Achieve your financial goals by taking the power (and the money) away from corporate America and putting it back in the pockets of the people who are actually doing all the work
Here is the roadmap to take back small business ownership in America! Come join us, and learn how you can participate in the dream of self-determination and financial independence.

Home Business in Network Marketing..the Second Most Important word to make Profits ..stop the frustration.. Make sure you get this statement loud and clear..
Network marketing home business is based on 3 UNIQUE CONCEPTS that are different from any other home business... LEVERAGE DUPLICATION DEMOCRATIC MARKETING
Get this right..expand your possibilities, and those you partner with.. limited only by your vision for your family's financial independence
Get this wrong..and you will flounder, as will your partners, to a wall of depressing excuses and possible dead end. It is the uninformed leading the uninformed.. or the hyped leading the
short-termed hyped. This doesn’t work. And the last great free enterprise system of equal opportunity will disappear in a puff of frustration and denigration.
The most important word in a network marketing home business is LEVERAGE to maximize your time and knowledge by sharing information tools by experts. For example, listening to a doctor with over 20 years valuable expertise in the nutritional field will have its own residuall benefits, undoubtedly.
Now, what if you want to share this valuable information and make some income as well….Then you need to harness the second most important word DUPLICATION.
Your income potential depends directly on your duplication system.
You must be able to duplicate the upline and your downline must be able to duplicate you.
Its not the company, product, compensation plan, marketing tools, master minds or 3-way calls.
How would you explain the term duplication to other people? Here are a few starting pointers:
Duplication in network marketing:
main obstacle that stands in your way of passive income
the foundation of any hope for passive residual income
based on your efforts to follow your upline to help and grow your downline
key to new people is to see that the system is easy to run..a streamline system where everything is done the same way, over and over again
process with all links operating the same way..if broken..often means loss of organization and loss of income
can function well with simple steps or be a doomed process when people don’t follow upline’s direction or try to re-invent the wheel
What kind of standard marketing systems are there?
These days, most systems include some sort of online marketing tool since most people have access to the internet, or else a multi-media tool like a DVD or a CD for people to listen to. Then there are group conference calls to plug into, and the three way calls with your upline. There are also systems to drive prospects smoothly along the process, which is as hands off for the network marketer as possible.
The one system I strongly recommend running away from is where you are expected to BRAND yourself as an expert. Avoid these kinds of frustrated calls for help from your downline:
I have been trying for 4 months and have spent over $6000 on ads, radio, newspaper, purchased 300 leads, Prewebb articles, bandit signs, and have gotten over 700 prospects to talk with but it is very evident that I need to be able to keep the flow going without spending the money.
The other alternative is to make money when my website is viewed to fund my expenses such as you have laid out. I am not very internet savy so I need specific help to how your plan works and how to get it up and running."
And the response from his mastermind guru:
So here's my advice...
A jack-of-all-trades is a master of none.
In order for you to produce leads at a reasonable cost, (which is from $1.00 to $5.00 per lead), you have to pick ONE single method of advertising, and stick with it until you master it.
And I'd say you've "mastered" something, when you can produce as many leads as you want, at the cost you want, AND be able to teach that skill to someone else.
You can choose from:
• Pay-Per-Click (Google Adwords)
• SEO (articles and blogs),
• Social Media (Twitter, Facebook, YouTube)
How frustrating, debilitating and unnecessary is this?
TO CONCLUDE: Make sure you get this statement loud and clear...
Network marketing home business is based on 3 UNIQUE CONCEPTS that are different from any other home business. LEVERAGE DUPLICATION
DEMOCRATIC MARKETING
Make sure you are part of a team that follows a simple 3 Steps Duplication Process…

Home Business Experience...you don’t want to miss this fishing trip analogy
Recently I had the good fortune to be part of my family’s fishing expedition. The experiences offered many lessons for the home business entrepreneur whether just looking for an opportunity or just starting or deeply involved. Fishing is such a great analogy to weathering life’s choices...but without vision and effort there can be no results. What if I had decided not to go on this trip based on a dozen excuses why I didn’t want to go..too expensive, too far, no skills, no time, too old, too many variables..what if the weather turned stormy? These trials and tribulations, successes and memories would not exist for me today. The pictures you can view on my facebook profile would not exist to share.
The greater the pity for loss of no effort..the greater the lesson in believing you can do it. JUST DO IT..whether a fishing trip or a home business..but do it by planning and knowing you can be successful.
THE IDEA…my brother read about this fishing resort and special discount at the end of the season…never experienced Ocean Fishing before..the reports were great about excellent catches, so why not try a family trip…planned 3 months in advance
THE PREPARATIONS... Follow company’s procedures for a 4 day trip, obtain licenses, reserve accomodations, prepare personal belongings, travel to destination…9 hour drive plus ferry journey to Eagles Nest, lovely bed and breakfast location…another 4 hour mountainous drive to picturesque Uculet Inlet.
THE START... 4:30 AM buffet breakfast... 6:00 AM Departure every day... follow the “feed ball” that salmon and halibut also follow...a two-hour boat trip to reach “feeding shelf” about 200 feet down...actual fishing time was about 2 and a half hours to ensure return trip back on time to docks…all fishing rods and bait set, safety regulations reviewed.
THE EXPERIENCE...went out four days and other than the first morning...the weather held steady with lots of sunshine, brisk sea breeze, and brilliant white clouds...basic method was jigging or mooching one stop at a time...interesting interactions with 20 other people, many with no experience, all flipping and running lines...but nothing unmanageable or quickly untangled..a marvelous on-deck multi-talented crew...there was always someone to help
THE SUCCESS..29 salmon and 44 halibut.
THE PROBLEMS...the first morning was touch and go as to whether the boat would even go out... swells were 15 feet high...other fishing boats disappeared into “troughs”...too difficult to hold both rod and railing...least amount of fish caught...a few sea sick...so glad to see the docks…don’t want to do this again..however…let’s try one more time. The last morning...drenching rain on the docks...don’t want to go out but got to support the team and it turned out brilliant and calmest once we were out to the open ocean
THE EXTRAS...watching an early morning hazy, golden sunrise on vast ocean waters…seeing gray whales arch against the steely blue and wave their gigantic tails…visiting Long Beach and to watch the surf…visiting the primeval, magnificent Cathedral Forest…great camaraderie..shared meals, drinks, laughter, tall tale stories of the ones that caught away... wouldnt want to miss this trip in hindsight
RELATION TO HOME BUSINESS
A home business starts with an idea…your vision is do something better for you and your family. You get help in making preparations…plan to follow a clear map of what you need and what to do. Follow necessary steps. Of course, at first, you need to learn and practice the techniques, the conversations. You will cast your line out many more times with no strikes knowing there are vast numbers of people also interested in natural health and extra income. Of course, you must expect problems..there will be times when you may doubt your sanity as your emotions and results ride high and low without a steady balance.
But what if, you never venture from the shore..playing safe covered by a dozen excuses? What if, you miss out on the adventure..the dream of success?
For goodness sake... set aside 30 minutes today to get started on your home-based venture. Just 30 short minutes! Do SOMETHING in those 30 minutes that will move you a little bit closer to that trip and dream of a lifetime.

You have the power and ability to design whatever kind of life you want. I sincerely believe in you but it doesn’t matter what I believe. You have to believe like all these talented people you can take action..as simple as reading and sharing
Home business..you’ve got talent if you can follow 3 simple steps
It is such a thrill to watch talent shows like America's Got Talent and this season’s final performance was exceptional.
One theme seems to shine through these discoveries and performances. It is when the underdog realizes he or she has an unrealized talent finally, suddenly shared, appreciated and applauded.
It’s like a middle-aged Susan Boyle who never was given the chance to sing and now “wild horses” can't hold her back.
It's about a beautiful opera singer who overcame cancer, a recycled-instrument percussion group from New Hampshire who never gave up on their dream, amazing Texas Tenors and the unbelievable singing siblings of true Voices of Glory with a young sister only 9 years old, and a septenarian grandmother with a priceless wit. And its like Kevin Skinner, a chicken catcher or farmer from a small town in Kentucky with such the saddest expression and a heart-felt voice about life’s basic emotions who won the top prize. A stronger contrast of possibilities is hard to imagine from the quiet hills of Kentucky to the glitz of Las Vegas headliner..it boggles the mind.
But that is the very nature of possibilities and following one’s dream.
And therein lies a valuable lesson for home business opportunity seekers or entrepreneurs..
We all have talent…maybe not in the same league as singing or dancing that has been perfected with years of practice and perseverance. But we all have ability in speaking and sharing and caring about making a difference.
We all deserve something special in our lives..an acknowledgement..a self-satisfaction ..a celebration of more time and money..more freedom to live life on our own terms. A successful home business can permit us to do that.
We may not have the time, commitment and development to become a sports star, sales professional or other kind of celebrity. We may not have the faces or bodies to succeed in certain fields. But I believe we all deserve something different from a life routine that may feel limited, dull, repetitive, boring, even faceless. We all deserve to at least have a CHOICE to leave something for future generations.
We deserve to follow our dreams, too. Here is what one well know writer, Stuart Goldsmith, has to say about your dreams:
"You probably had the glimmer of a dream when you were a youngster, but this was soon knocked out of you. Your parents undoubtedly called your dream unrealistic. Then, to the sound of a points-lever being pulled, they suggested to you that you get a 'practical' education in order that you might follow your dream at a later date. "I am not implying any malevolence here, you need to remember that your parents, and all preceding generations did not have the luxury of fancy life-planning. The name of their game was survival. To survive you needed money. To get money you needed a good job. To get a good job you needed a good education. They pulled those levers on you for the best of intentions, but the result was a disaster for your fledgling ambitions." This message was reinforced by teachers, friends and career advisers..Throughout these years, you learned the trick of suppressing your dream. You simply could not maintain this dream in the face of such ordered opposition and so you buried it in a secret place within you. "Then the pace of life started really to heat up, and problems started to come at you like a pack of hungry jackals. No time for fancy, childish dreams now. All of your energies were involved, and probably still are involved, in fighting off the pack of slavering dogs. Dreams are... well, for dreamers. There is a life to be lived, food to put on the table, a mortgage to be paid and other people to worry about. If you even remember your dream, you probably fool yourself into thinking you'll pick it up later, when the family has grown up, when you are retired. Some time. "The tragedy here is that most people's dreams become so deeply buried they not only forget what they are, but even forget that they had a dream in the first place. "Certainly, few people can put a name to their dream. Instead, they sit in the sidings, rusting away, perhaps (if this is not pushing the railway analogy too far) hoping that some bright, gleaming locomotive will arrive one day to pull them to safety. Is it any wonder that they are depressed?"
I’m not sure to what degree you can relate to these thoughts.
But one thing is for certain. YOU are the locomotive, my dear friend. The help you are waiting for is YOU. Only you can do the work needed to get the locomotive moving forward. Only you can squander your time waiting for the "right train."
Success of a dream does not depend on hopes, prayers, affirmations, or ceremonies. Realization of a dream does not depend on reading a thousand positive thinking books or listening to a hundred seminars to pull you through.
No magic or luck or supernatural force will shine upon you.
You need to click the start button. You don't need a complicated "engineering" degree. You need to take the first few steps and share simple tools with people who also want to change. You don't want a pile of excuses, like logs, to obstruct you. Excuses do not exist in reality..just as mental manifestations...
Don’t keep putting off that dream until tomorrow because days will turn into weeks, months and then years. And sometimes it turns out we don’t have a lot of time left.
A wise man once said: "MOTION BEATS MEDITATION"
Tomorrow is today, my friend. For goodness sake... set aside 30 minutes today to get started toward your dream. Just 30 short minutes! Do SOMETHING in those 30 minutes that will move you a little bit closer to that dream.
