tough times don't last but tough people do!

Just as sure as night will turn into morning, the coronavirus will fade into the past just like many other viruses have done. It will become a somewhat sad memory to each of us that experienced the horror of it by what we heard or if perhaps we were a victim of it. I used to hear from some of the older generation that it was a bad wind that never changed but truly just like winter changes into spring, this bad wind will pass. Just as the warming rays of the summer sun that bathes our body and

Dawning of a brand new day!

It appears that we were some how on a new distant planet that we hardly knew. The way things used to be were suddenly not the same anymore. What happened... in just a matter of minutes it seems, we could hardly recognize where we were or what was happening. This just had to be a bad dream and it would all be ending soon. I listen to my friends talk about lay-offs, job closings, kids out of school, contaminated food, stores out of toilet paper, meetings and activities canceled, what happened. I

When Should You Start a Business?

You may ask yourself this question, "when would be the right time to start my business" The right answer would be, "after you're done building it in your mind" After getting that gut feeling that it will work, you can pretty much begin at any time. You don't have to physically sit down at your computer and begin typing something. Having the secure feeling inside that the work you're about to start, can be successful in your inner person is the key to making it work on paper. Before you look u

Bending the truth for your benefit

To bend the truth as described in the dictionary is to say something that is not exactly true in order to achieve a goal. I was raised by parents who absolutely pounded it into my head when I was growing up that anything other than the truth was a lie. So as an adult, I have that same principle etched into my being that there's no such thing as a white lie or bending the truth. The reason behind this post is to rant a little about the cold hearted, uncaring way that some people in this business

Complacency.enemy to all of us!

Complacency can be defined as self-satisfaction when accompanied by unawarness of actual dangers or deficiencies. Complacency can be dangerous in our business for the following reasons. Complacency can sneak up on you as a feeling of being pleased with yourself or being secure in the state you're in, speaking in terms of work and business. Don't ever think that you're immune to this adversary of each of us. When you're in a state of complacency, you stop doing your absolutely best work because

How others react to you sharing your success

Sharing your success can be uplifting to someone who's struggling. The one rule that successful people must realize is that there is a right way to share and a way that can have a negative effect on the reader or listener, don't be high-minded or just plain nasty. Most people want to be successful in life because as we all realize success gives you a feeling of worthiness and well being. Imagine pouring out your energy each day and the harder you go the less you accomplish, would you want a bea

What Do You Do When.

Picture this scenario, you're talking one-on-one to someone about this industry and you're all excited about a certain topic or site you're promoting. When all of a sudden the person you're pitching your offer to starts to pitch their offer to you...what do you do? How does one turn the conversation around in their favor.First of all I never disrespect anyone and always try to be courteous because he or she might become one of your biggest customers in the future. But if the person insist on

It's NOT your fault!

It never ceases to amaze me at the nerve some people have when it comes to making money online. The new person who's just now taking an interest in our industry are more easily taken in by some of the extreme tactics used by some of the so-called gurus. They line their pockets with the hard earned cash of the innocent just to increase their bottom line with no remorse at all. This sort of thing has been going on since the invention of the internet. This business like any other depends on the tr

Touched by the feelings of others at Christmas time.

I'm so glad for the time we had together during the past year. The friendships that grew from knowing we could always depend on someone to come to our rescue if things got a little sticky or the respect that we have for one another that kindled a flame within all of us that burns warmly within us each day. There's so much that can be learned here through the instruction we get but people touching people kinda starts a snowball effect in us that grows and spills over and over. Thanks to my W/A f
