Can You Just Be Present?

My how times have changed. We were born in the early 60’s and grew up through the 70’s and 80’s and it was a Glorious time. Came out of high school before there ever was an internet and learned to type on an old fashioned typewritter. There were no cell phones, no computers and no internet and somehow we still got by. We used to talk all the time, because there wasn’t anything else to do. It was even a big deal to get your allotted time on the phone. You had to go in the hall because there was only one phone in the house and it hung on the wall with one LONG cord that was always a tangled mess. But we Loved to talk! We always sat and talked about everything or anything, it was a Glorious time.

Then came the internet and computers and suddenly you could communicate without even having to write a letter. Email they called it and that was pretty cool. Gone were the days of encyclopedias and libraries as Google ushered in a new way of finding information. Never forget my first computer, a Super 486, think it had a whole 16 megs of ram and a new thing called a disc drive. I remember my dad saying I wasted my money because no one needed a CDRom? He didn’t even think you needed that stupid thing called a mouse, after all you had direction buttons on the keyboard. LOL, that was funny then and still funny today. Then came the cell phone, that big bag thing that weighed 40 lbs. What a marvelous and wonderful piece of hardware that was. You could place a call from anywhere, and maybe get through, wasn’t many towers back then.

But let’s fast forward to Today! Wow, how things have changed. We went from sitting in the hall on a phone that didn’t go NO where to carrying one around in our pocket. Now you could actually place a call from Almost anywhere. And to my continued amazement Apple bust on the scene with a “Smart Phone” that would actually access the internet, Man that’s COOL! This gave birth to Social Media and instant chats with anyone any time. Now you didn’t even have to run home to see what was in your email or who was trying to chat with you, just pull out your Smart Phone and go to town. Now days practically EVERYONE sits around with their head buried in their phone or device. And thus the phenomena arises.

People have become SO Addicted to their device that people don’t talk with those right in front of them. They sit down for dinner or to visit and no one can take their eyes off the phone, they just sit there and stare at the device. Look around, it’s becoming an epidemic. Even the youth are starting to have neck problems from the bad posture of constantly hanging their head down to focus on the phone. You see couples sitting at restaurants just staring at their phone and not even visiting with each other. You get together with friends and next thing you know no one is talking because they are all just caught up in the latest on Facebook or Instagram instead of being “Present” in your company. “Can You Be Present?”

If not then Shame on you. Turn off the damn phone and enjoy the moment you have in the company of a friend or loved ones. Nothing in that phone is even close to being as important as the conversation you could be having but aren’t. Time is SO Precious and we waste SO much of it anyway that when it comes to sitting down, face to face, to be “Present” in the moment don’t waste these precious moments staring into space. How many relationships are destroyed by this technology? I would venture to say A Lot! As a man that has been married for 35 years and still best friends I can tell you that “Talking” is a major component of a relationship. If you are ignoring your significant other because you are more interested in that cute meme on Facebook I can promise you that your are headed for trouble. Take advantage of the time you have together, which usually isn’t that much, and just be Present in the moment and TALK. You will be amazed at how much better you get along when you are visiting, laughing and enjoying each others company.

So, how does this relate to Network Marketing? You knew I would get around to it! Here’s the deal, we Network by having meetings and giving presentations about our opportunity and or products. I can tell you that Nothing gets under my skin faster than someone I am trying to talk about my business with that keeps getting interrupted every five minutes by their phone. And the same goes for us as Professional Network Marketers, if you have someone that went to all the trouble to meet up with you, and hear your presentation about your products or opportunity, and all you can do is keep stopping to see who’s calling or what was that message then you lost the battle already. BE PRESENT when you are in the presence of a prospect. Put the phone down, turn it off if you have to, but give your prospect 100% of your attention. You can not be effective when you are constantly interrupted by your phone.

Same goes for the prospect. The meeting with a prospect is not about how good you are it’s about “Are they Qualified to partner with You in your business?” If they can not even give you 30 or 45 mins uninterrupted then how are they ever going to focus on building a business. When you let a prospect take control of the situation and their phone is more important than you, then you are coming from a position of weakness. You are letting them dictate the terms of the meeting. Never let them have control of the meeting. You are the one interviewing them to see if they are qualified, not the other way around. I know, to some of you this sounds harsh and you think I’m being arrogant, but I’m not. See, I am a Professional Network Marketer that takes my Profession and my Mission Very Seriously. I am not just looking for anyone with a heartbeat to be on my team. I am looking for someone So Hungry they Have to Succeed. I want the one that wants it more than me, the one that pays close attention to everything and hangs on every word you speak. The one that takes notes and ask questions that are relevant to their Success in this business. If someone can’t take put that phone away and Be Present while I put my time and effort into showing them the Best Plan Ever, then I don’t need them and neither do you.

Be Present, pay attention to the moment and listen to what others are saying to you. You might just learn some things that could carry you through to a happier place and time in life. Be Present, because tomorrow might never come and you may have wasted the last chance you had to say what you wanted to say or hear what you wanted to hear. Be PRESENT, Because that’s Respect! Just Be Present! Live today not in your phone but face to face, You’ll Be Glad You Did!

We are Professional Network Marketers that hold the up most Respect for this business and we are looking for others just like us. If you don’t have time, that’s fine cause I don’t either. But if you have the Desire to do Whatever it takes to Succeed and Reach Your Dreams, then I got all the time in the world for you. Let’s have a conversation, face to face, belly to belly to discuss how we might come together and partner up for the ride of a Lifetime with our Simple TEAM.

Dean and Dena Battle 4 Kids Fighting Cancer!

I Quit! and So Should You!

Sometimes life is such a struggle. We all go about our daily grind just trying to make ends meet and find some way to get ahead and then Pow, right in the kisser comes life again. We all been there and done that. So, I Proclaim today that “I Quit”. I am tired of trying to work so hard to get ahead and pay the bills. I am tired of living paycheck to paycheck and praying for a miracle to come and take me away. I am just tired of the struggle that we call the “American Dream”. What happened and why are so many fighting just to survive?

If you look around today at what’s really going on you realize that there is a Revolution happening all around. It’s happening in politics, in the way people do business, the way people communicate and socialize and even the way we live our lives. People are “Tired” of how things are going and the directions that many things around them are taking. Living expenses keep rising and bills stack up, some people are so far in debt that they can’t see a light at the end of the tunnel any longer. Hope seems to fade and people are feeling beat down and slavish to the system. Gone are the days of “get a good job, be loyal so the company will be loyal back and in 40 years just retire”. Things are changing and the Revolution is happening right before our eyes for those that choose to see.

SO, I Quit! But not like you think. See, I have BIG Dreams about a fantastic life filled with Great people, fun travels and helping others learn to Dream again. I have had this vision for many years but I was too busy to pursue my Dreams. Life has a way of getting in the way of our Dreams because we are too busy to do something about it. We got to get up early, get the kids to school, fight your way through traffic to get to your job you hate anyway. Put in a full day of slaving to the grind and listening to the boss demand more and more of your time, only to rush home and deal with all the things that keep us so busy with life. Got to make dinner, kids homework, clean the house a bit and just relax a moment before you go to bed and get up to do it ALL over again. Sound Familiar? Another day gone and one step farther away from your Dreams instead of closer.

We have been there as well, we spent most of our life just getting by, working for the man and living for the weekend. But I Quit! I quit making excuses for not pursuing my Dreams, I quit letting life get in the way of what I Really wanted to accomplish. I quit listening to people that told me “You can’t do that”, I quit hanging out with those that are negative and toxic in life and just want to drag me down to their level. I quit thinking about what I should do and actually started Doing It. I quit thinking the video camera and the phone weighed 800 pounds and started picking them up and taking Action on things that were going to bring about change. I quit talking about all the things I was going to do and Started DOING Them.
You see, we believe there is a Revolution going on today and people are tired of the way things are and they looking to do something different that is going to make a change in their life. There are a LOT of people, just like us, that are reaching their 50’s and going “oh crap, what now?”. We have run into so many people lately that are reaching their later years and realizing that they have to do Something and need to do it NOW! Listen closely you young peeps, You will be better served if you make these changes now, in your younger life, then wait till your 50 to get started. But even to those that are realizing that now is the time and today is the day, congratulations and Welcome to the Revolution.

A Revolution is described as a fundamental change that happens when the “people” rise up and revolt against current authorities or situations. And we believe that is what is happening all around us today. People are tired of the status quo and they looking for a better way. This is also happening in Network Marketing as well and people are looking for a new kind of company and a new culture that is designed to support the distributor or partner instead of just making the owners rich. We are tired of over priced products and comp plans that disqualify you from money you earned because you missed the mark by a hair or they changed the comp plan or whatever they can think of to keep from paying you what you worked so hard for. People are looking for a better way! Mr. Eric Worre, The Network Marketing PRO, says that “Network Marketing isn’t perfect. . . Just Better!” And we believe this with every ounce of energy we can muster. It’s better than your J.O.B. or current situation that keeps you a slave to the grind just getting by.

There is a New Revolution that is taking place and a new way of doing business that is going to Disrupt the Networking and MLM industry. Things are changing and a New Culture of Passion and Love of Living is being born through a well established company. There is a new vision of how to Elevate people to new heights in there life with financial rewards, a Passion for Health and Happiness with Social groups that can literally change the world. We are changing the way Network Marketing is going to impact people and raise more people up without hurting others in the process. Everybody wins because this program benefits Everybody. You hate Network Marketing? Great this program is perfect for you. Your Not a recruiter? Great this program is for you. You want to build a TEAM and create a life-changing Residual Income? Great, this program is Right for You.

I Quit! And I am SO Glad I did. I quit letting others control my destiny and determine my lifestyle and worth. I Quit making excuses why I couldn’t and started taking Action so I Can! I Can do more, be more and give more to my fellow man. I quit wishing things would change and now I am Making things change that are going to create a better life for us and all the others that are seeking help. I quit being a victim and started being a Victor! You can quit too and we would Love to Help You find a better way. It might not be perfect but it’s Way Better than being a slave to the system.

How to Avoid Optional Failure

If You Fail, is it by Choice? We hear about this “high failure” rate in Network Marketing all the time but in reality, most people who “failed” did so by their own choosing. It seems that the term “failed” in Network Marketing is used very frequently to describe those that fell pray to the system. Maybe we should try and define the term “fail” when relative to Network Marketing. The dictionary says that Fail is: “to be unsuccessful in achieving one’s goal” or “neglect to do something”. This is a pretty good definition of “failing” because it is usually the “neglect to do something” that keeps people from Success in Network Marketing. This term is usually used when someone didn’t do the work, choosing again to watch TV instead of working their business.

So, is failure a choice? Yes and No, yes because to often the failure is a result of just not trying or not willing to do the things that need to be done to feed your business. No, because sometimes people never get the training on what to do and how to do it to have a Successful Networking career. We see people joining all the time with great intention because they just want something different in life than their soul sucking J.O.B.. But just because you are unhappy at work and want to quit everyday doesn’t always transfer into a true commitment to succeed in business. Sometimes the same people that didn’t want to do any work at their job are also Not willing to work at their Home Based Business. They join with great intention and big dreams only to realize that there is work involved to be successful so they just return to their comfort zone and go back to watching TV instead. We know, because we have been there too. The TV and one’s comfort zone are much easier than actually learning how to run a business from home.

Network Marketing has the ability to create Life Changing incomes and lifestyle, but there is a price. Not that it’s Rocket Science or anything but you do have to learn new skills and put together a game plan that will get your business up and running to build an organization that pays Big Money for your efforts. We personally know people in this industry that make a million dollars per year with their Network Marketing business. This is life changing income that practically anyone can achieve if they are just willing to Commit, Educate and ACT. The only way you could ever make this type of income outside of Network Marketing is either illegal or takes a massive college education and years to create, plus you would be hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt. And after all that, all you did was create a high paying J.O.B. that most people don’t enjoy anyway.

If you want to get ahead and live a Dream Life then you have to be willing to learn new skills and most importantly ACT upon them. We call it the “Four Year Career” because you can find the right mentor, learn some new skills and create Massive Action that can launch Your Networking career in such a short time. Here is why most people “fail” at their Networking business. They treat their business like a game a social event or lottery instead of like a Serious Business. They just show up when it’s convenient, or they feel like it, instead of working their daily task that will get their business going. They only do what is easy or comfortable instead of doing all the things that Have to be done to see Success. Many use motivational approaches like “I hope” or “I’ll try” instead of “I Will” or “I AM” going to make my business a Success. Or, a real killer, they just want to “do it” their way instead of the way their mentor teaches that has proven results over and over. Again, too often this “failure” was self imposed.

To fail in Network Marketing is much easier than to Succeed because anyone can “choose” to do what is necessary or they can choose not to do it today or tomorrow or when ever the case. But the opposite is also true, Anyone can Succeed in Network Marketing if only they will choose to step out of their comfort zones and get busy on the task at hand. Don’t fall for shinny objects and promises of overnight riches because these are just games and schemes that will take your hard earned cash and leave you in a pool of regret and failure. The best way to succeed is to find the right mentor, someone you can relate to and who will lead you down a path to starting your business up and moving it forward toward Success. Commit to your goals, Educate Yourself on the process and Take Massive Action that moves your business forward.

Most people fail because they don’t have a big enough “Why”. The first thing you need to do is figure out “why” you are going to succeed and not accept excuses for failure. You need to really understand your why and define it down to the smallest details. What is it that is going to keep you going when things get difficult or your comfort zone cries out for your old self? If your “why” isn’t big enough then your old self will creep back in and take over telling you lies like, “it don’t work” or “I can’t do it”. Make a vision board or post pictures all around your work space that reflect this “reason” why you are going to be successful, no excuses accepted. Without a “Why”, and a really big one, you are destine to fail and miss out on that Dream Life you want so bad.

Here is our “Why”. We have been involved with children fighting cancer for the last 10 years. No we don’t have a child with cancer but God led us into this situation to help these brave fighters and their families fight this horrible disease. We formed a legal 501 c3 and became a non profit called Battle for a Cure Foundation. We work to help support these brave fighters in the battle of a lifetime through the dark journey of cancer. We deliver Hope Boxes, we support families with needs in the hospital, we hold several big events for these families throughout the year and we do Lots of great work to help these families out. We Love what we do and want to do more. We are a non profit and so we rely on donations from individuals and businesses to support our cause and it’s a constant struggle to keep funds available to do this great work. Our “Why” is to support Battle for a Cure and fund this great organization and all the great work we are blessed to do. You can learn more about Battle for a Cure by visiting our site here or check us out on Facebook here. This is a BIG WHY and it keeps us going and will not allow us to fail because we have so much at stake. What is Your Big Why? Maybe it’s a new house or a sports car, maybe it’s to support your family or church that needs help. But whatever it is Define It so you know why you are going to Succeed, no excuses accepted.

Failure really is an option. You can choose to work hard and do the things that have to be done to Succeed OR you can choose to let your old self win again and let your TV and comfort zone steal your Dreams, it’s Your Choice. Failure is never permanent or fatal so if you have failed before, learn from it and get back up to fight again. The only time you really fail is when you accept defeat and refuse to fight another day. Failure only wins if You let it.

We work daily to find people that truly want to make a difference in the world and learn the process that leads to a Dream Life of their making. We have all parts of the puzzle so that You don’t have to guess what works or what tools you need because we have already done all the work to put a plan together. Your Success of Failure really depends on You but we want to make that journey as easy and fun as possible. Connecting with the right kinds of people can enhance your chances of Success or chance of failure so choose wisely. We are only looking for those that are looking for us and we sure hope that is You.

The Entrepreneur Inside You?

While listening to a webinar the other night with some multi-million dollar earners in Network Marketing there was a conversation about being an Entrepreneur. The discussion was one that really made me stop and ponder the whole meaning of being a Real Entrepreneur or just being a disgruntled employee, there is a big difference. I was setting there listening to Network Super Star Mark Hooverson discuss how he knew, when he was even a little kid, that he had the Entrepreneur spirit and how even in his youth he always knew he could do more, be more and have more if he just did his own gig instead of working for someone else. I could relate because I had been making money on my own since I was about 12 years old when dear ole Dad loaded me up and took me to the store to buy a lawn mower. He wheeled it outside and said “Here, the first $35 you make pays me back, after that Your in business!” and I was off to start my enterprise.

Entrepreneurial spirit is a mindset. It’s an attitude and approach to thinking that actively seeks out change, rather than waiting to adapt to change. It’s a mindset that embraces critical questioning, innovation, service and continuous improvement. This spirit comes from the inside and burns like a passion to make things happen that will increase our value and worth. Entrepreneurship can be defined as “…the capacity and willingness to develop, organize, and manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit.” This burning desire to do your own thing is not for everyone but can be had by anyone that is willing to “do the deal” or work harder to be better everyday. This comes from “Commitment, Education and Action”. Anyone can learn to run their own business but not everyone will make the effort. It takes a special kind of willingness to push yourself, and get it done on your own, that some people just don’t have. Too often people are only motivated when the are pushed by outside forces instead of pushing themselves and this usually comes in the form of a boss. As long as someone is telling them when to work, how much to work and what they have to do, then they can perform a service, but to push their own efforts and do things without the outside influence then they just don’t get it done, they would rather watch another season of TV then actually do something that might increase their standard of living.

The Real Entrepreneur seeks out the knowledge to develop and organize a business plan that they can execute to build something that is greater than what they had yesterday. They are willing to take risk and step out of the comfort zone to do the things that most just won’t do. Just because you hate your job or you hate your boss and wish you could work for yourself doesn’t always transfer into a Successful home based business. We hear it all the time, “man I just want to quit my job and work from home” and that is a novel idea alright but the key word here is “work”. You Can work from home and you Can make way more money working from home then you do at your soul sucking J.O.B. (Just Over Broke). But the challenge becomes, what are you willing to do to make that happen? Are you truly interested in learning new life skills and organizing a game plan that will kick start your new business, OR do you just wish you could sit around the house all day and play around on Facebook?

Anyone can be an Entrepreneur! But let’s go back to the definition of being a True Entrepreneur “…the capacity and willingness to develop, organize, and manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit.” This is why so many people fail in Network Marketing, they get involved for all the right reasons but life is busy, people work long hours at their job, kids got activities and more often then not these people don’t take the time to learn the skills needed and actually do a business. You Must Commit, Educate and Act, it really is that simple. It starts with You and learning how to change your mindset from an employee to Entrepreneur. Your Success really comes down to Your “Why”, the real reason you started with Network Marketing to begin with. If it was just out of curiosity and you aren’t really committed to your “Why” then your chance of creating Success drastically goes down. But if your “Why” is bigger than your excuses then you will have the necessary drive to learn the skills and do the deal of moving your home based business forward.

Most people have a reason that they got started with Network Marketing. It usually is more about “time freedom” than just money. We all want the freedom to spend time with our family and children and stop working so many hours of our life. We usually put ourselves in these situations by thinking we need the new car or bigger house and can’t keep our credit card in our wallet and the next thing you know we need to bring in more and more money just to survive. That’s usually when someone sees an ad about work from home, make extra money and they jump on the train hoping to escape the rat race of life. And sometimes necessity is a Great motivator but it can be a double edge sword as well. Too often people have gotten themselves in such a financial bind that they can’t seem to find any available funds to work their new business and so they just quit again and return to what they know best, the ole J.O.B., the comfort zone, another season of Dancing with the Stars or what ever sneaks in and steals their Dreams.

The True Entrepreneur is filled with a passion and a spirit that burns inside and moves them to learn more, do more and certainly Be More! They cannot be content with being a good employee and just getting by in life. The Entrepreneur seeks out the knowledge and life skills that will help them to put together a plan and execute their plan for Massive Success. They set their goals and monitor their progress always looking for a way to increase the value they bring that increases the rewards they reap, it’s a Beautiful thing. Some are born with this burning desire and some just have to learn this skill from where they are in life. It really doesn’t matter what has happened in the past because you can’t change any of that if you wanted to, but it does matter what you do Today that will change where you are going tomorrow. If you have the natural Entrepreneurial Spirit then embrace it and get started on a plan that will create your Dream Life. If you need to learn this skill then by all means, find the education, the support group and surround your self with people that are of the same mindset and change. Jim Rohn says, “If You don’t like where you are in life, Change It, you’re not a tree!”. That’s some Good advice.

Is there an Entrepreneur inside you just waiting to be set Free? We sure hope so! We Love Network Marketing because it gives the average person an opportunity to be Great and do things that others only wish they could do. Will everyone succeed at this Great opportunity? Probably not, but that is Totally up to You. Could You use some help in getting started? Well that is why we are here. We have learned to work with people from where they are at, get them the education and skills to start and then give them the support and training to move their home business forward.

There is a BIG Wave Coming!

Would You take the advice of a Multi-Million Dollar Network Marketing professional? We certainly hope so because his strategy and teachings have led many to Successful careers in Network Marketing. We are talking about Mr. Tim Sales and his coaching and teaching that centers around the “reason” Network Marketing is such a Great business and game plan for the average person. In his video Brilliant Compensation he teaches how great waves are created in the market place by recognizing current trends and groups that lead to Big Waves of business at certain times, and how You can position yourself in front of these opportunities to ride the wave to Massive Success in Your Network Marketing business. It specifically talks about the “Baby Boomers” and how this large group of people have exploded certain companies and products over the years and how some very savvy business people were able to see these trends and get in front of the wave of business that was barreling toward them. But there’s also a new kid on the block called the “Millennial” and this group is taking the market by storm. Learn to position yourself in front of a Massive wave of new “Social Networking” that will sweep the globe and bring people of all ages and locations together. Doesn’t matter if your young or old, EVERYONE wants to Travel!

We have been on a four year search for an opportunity that was poised for Massive Growth and had all the components that would bring together a massive amount of customers and distributors to create a Massive movement in the Networking arena. This has led us to several companies that are really good companies over the last two years and even joined a few of them just to see what was Really going on behind the scenes. We have looked at SO Many opportunities and different pay plans to come up with what we believe is the Ultimate Network Marketing Opportunity.

We hear it all the time, “I just don’t like Network Marketing” or “I’m just not a team builder, I don’t like to recruit” well That’s Great with us. You see, you don’t have to be a Networker, maybe your just a Great Customer or you like the affiliate model and love great health but hate to recruit people to an over priced auto-ship, That’s Great with Engage Micro Daily because You still Win with this comp plan. This is truly going to Disrupt the industry and create a Huge Wave of new customers, affiliates and of course some of the biggest names in the industry because Everyone Wins with this program.

Thinking About Retirement?

They say that Retirement is the day you finally stop living at work and start working at living. This is a moment in time that is mostly thought of for the elders in our society that have worked for forty years and finally reached a point in life where they can start a new journey, Retirement. No job, no stress, no alarm clock and no commute, what a glorious thing to be retired.

Retirement is a time to start one’s Golden Phase and learn to live again and give your childhood dreams one more try. But statistics show that most people are not ready or able to retire even when they have reached this special time of life. The old American Dream of get a good job, work 40 years and retire with benefits is harder and harder to accomplish. Too often we see the elders squeezed out of the job market, let go before they reach that magical point and replaced with younger, cheaper talent. And that is understandable but really hard on those that have worked so hard only to find out they are not needed and too expensive to keep around. It’s a vicious cycle that is playing out every day with those of us that are over 50 and still working.

Retirement is suppose to be a time of Adventure, Relaxation, Friendships and Travel. But, the statistics show that the average savings of a 50 year old in America are only $42,797.00 and yet you will need over $700,000.00 in savings just to maintain an income of $4,000.00 or so a month, which is less than $50G per year to live off of. All at a time in life when medical cost increase, cost of living in general continues to increase, cost of food, electric and all the daily needs just go up as our time passes by. As much as 80 percent of people 30-54 fear they will not have enough money saved up to even be able to retire in their later years. So what gives? Do You have a plan to reach this Golden Phase in life?

How about we offer an alternative, a different plan that can not only provide a great income but also offer better Health, Wealth and Happiness. A plan that you can start on now, and make it work even if you are already over 50 or even later in life. You get to meet new and exciting people that are positive and motivated to experience all that life has to offer. You get to experience new and exciting nutrition products that can Elevate your Health and help you live a better, more productive life. You get the opportunity to make some extra income and Elevate your Wealth so you have more resources to travel and do the things you always thought retirement would be like. And all this makes you a Happier Retired Awesome person that others can only envy. It sure beats sitting on the couch watching Judge Judy reruns eating ramen noodles!

Retirement should be a time of Joy and Adventure not a time of loneliness and depravity. Network Marketing is one of the smartest journeys you can start whether you are 20 years old or 55 years old. But if you are already speeding down the journey of life wondering what the heck to do now then Network Marketing can be a game changer for your retirement. It makes for a great avenue to meet new people, make new friends and network with those that are positive and adventurous. Spend your time planning your next exciting vacation instead of your next afternoon of playing cards or watching that dream stealing box called TV. Learn about new and exciting nutrition products that can bring great benefit to your health and help you live a longer, healthier life instead of piling up your next round of pharmaceutical poison. Plus you can create an extra income that can completely change the quality of life you get to live in this Golden time. The rewards of Network Marketing can be an extra $500 per month or $10,000 per month if you just spend a little time sharing your vision and telling others about Your Great Lifestyle! It’s a Glorious thing!

You Are going to grow old, no way around it. You will have to face that time when you have to choose what direction you are going to be headed when these years sneak up on you. It should be a time that you put away the old daily commute, arrogant boss and stress of the daily work grind and start a new journey and a new direction. Network Marketing is Perfect for Anyone that wants to live this time with Joy and Purpose. So how will you spend this time? Don’t let retirement end up being a time of loneliness and depravity just wishing that someone would come and visit or deciding on what to buy, your medicine or some groceries. I know, it’s Tuff Love but it is reality and it really is your choice. This scenario is playing out every day all over the country and it comes to us all. We are now 56 years young and the thought of retirement is staring us down hard and fast. We choose to face this time in life with Excitement, Adventure and the best health we can muster. We choose Network Marketing because it offers the best of Health, Wealth and Happiness!

The Dream Catcher

The Dream Catcher originated with the Ojibwe people and later adopted by most Native Americans as a symbol of Unity among the various Native Nations. The mothers and grandmothers would weave magical webs using willow branches and sinew or cordage made from plants. It was believed that the Dream Catcher would catch the bad dreams and only let the good dreams pass to you in your sleep. Once the sun rose all the bad dreams and thoughts that were caught in the web would disappear.

We can learn a lot from those that have gone before us and lived a life that we can’t even imagine today. I think we could all use a Dream Catcher these days to help filter the negative dreams and thoughts we all must face in the day in and day out fight for control of our own mind. It is absolutely true that we are what we think and if your thoughts are positive and good then you can experience that in your life but if they are negative and bad then that will be your experience.

We all have Dreams that we wish our life would be like. To some it’s more time, for some it’s more money and for some it’s just a simpler life. Too often we get caught up in the “keep up with the Jones” mindset and think we need to have the new house, two new cars, the credit cards and material things that we see others with and compare our situation to theirs with envy. I know because we have been there as well. We had the new house, we had a Lexus in the driveway a Corvette just sitting there and our daughters drove nice cars as well. We looked like we were living the Dream but in reality we were up to our eyeballs in debt and really didn’t own anything. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with having the nicer things in life. . . when you can afford them. Just don’t become a slave to debt to the point that you loose control over your precious life.

We call it “The Simple Life” now. Our Dream was to get out of debt where we could enjoy what we made and live a life full of Joy instead of stress. We still have a nice quaint little house, we live on the lake with a boat in the slip, we have nice vehicles and all but the best part of all is we have NO payments. We do pay rent and it took us 6 years to find our current dream house that is a small cabin like place with a big screened in porch right on the lake, no place I’d rather be. We work for ourself, get up when we want and do what we want with whom we want and spend lots of time just enjoying LIFE. That was our Dream and we Love our Simple Life. We caught our Dream!

We don’t tell you this for envy but to say that after 54 years of living we finally sat down and decided what was important to us, where we wanted to be, and designed a life that fit that situation. You can do this too! If you are buried in debt, stressed to the max and not happy with your situation then You are the only one that can make the change. Maybe it’s time to Catch Your Dream and simplify Your life? This is a process and you can’t change your situation over night but you can change the direction you are headed. We see people all the time that jump into Network Marketing because they bought into the hype and thought they would make a fortune overnight. Problem is that Network Marketing is not a “get rich quick” plan. But it is a way to change the direction and reset the sail so to speak.

We love Network Marketing because it gives the average person the best opportunity to live their Dream if they will just Commit, Educate and ACT. Commit to the process and find your reason that is going to keep you going even when your struggling to get started. Educate yourself with the knowledge to move your Networking journey forward. Learn what you need to become a Successful Networker and develop the skills to inspire others to do the same. But most of all, ACT! Take Massive Action and do the deal, don’t just talk about it Do IT! If you wanted to earn a Doctors pay you would have to commit to being a doctor, educate yourself on how to be a doctor and then go be a doctor. Networking is the same process. Commit to the change, Educate yourself in the “how” and Go forth and Be a Network Marketing Success story.

People ask us all the time “what are you selling?”. Know what, we sell the Dream! The dream to be better, to live fuller and Enjoy Life. The Dream to be who you want to be and to live the Simple Life that everyone dreams about. Can everyone do it? Yes but not everyone will succeed at it because their reason, or their “Why”, just wasn’t strong enough to push them to change. Want to change where you are then you have to change what you are doing and change your daily habits to lead your life in a different direction. Catch Your Dream!

We work with all kinds of people from different walks of life. Professionals, blue collar white collar, moms and housewives, young and old and it really doesn’t matter where you are, it matters where you want to be. We can give you all the tools and education to learn a new life-skill that can Dramatically change the direction you are headed. All you have to do is Commit, Educate and ACT! It really is that Simple!

From the Head or From the Heart?

So, where is your passion for life coming from? Are you living from the fears of your own mind or from the desires of your heart. The biggest cause of fear is the uncertainty of what could happen, what could go wrong or what will others think? This overwhelming uncertainty can cause us to fear opportunities instead of face them so we often miss out on great experiences because the change becomes uncomfortable, not knowing what to expect. Wanting to move forward, we often let the fear of the unknown rob us of a chance at better happiness and greater security in life.

Most of life’s situations are judged by either inspiration or desperation. Sometimes we are inspired to move forward and change and sometimes we feel pushed by desperation to make a move or change certain situations in life. The desperate moves often come from our over analytical minds and usually pushed on us from outside forces like peer pressure or even family situations. We make choices based on what others think is good for us instead of what we think is good. Where inspirational change usually comes from within or from the heart where we have an internal desire to make a change or try something new.

The “head” tries to analyze everything and sometimes creates worst-case scenarios that can hold us captive to our current situation, always wondering what could go wrong instead of what can go right. Our minds start to tell us why we can’t accomplish a goal instead of inspiring us why we can. But when we make the change from the heart then the inspiration and feelings of confidence can override our fears and move us forward to a new journey in life. If we are pushed into change by our fears then the change stands little chance of success but when we are inspired to change from within, from the heart, then we are able to face the fear and move forward.

When the inspiration comes from the heart we begin to focus on what can go Right instead of what could go wrong. We start to see problems as opportunity or pathways and stop focusing on the fear. We begin to look inside for answers, instead of blaming others for our current situations, and start to let go of things or even people that no longer serve our journey in life. We start to figure out that it is more about the journey than the destination.

So, what motivates You? Are you inspired by your heart and excited about opportunity or, are you desperate from your thinking, scared to step out and be different from the herd. The Heart says “Yes You Can!” where the head says “that’s too scary, don’t think so, I’ll just stay here.” It’s time to get Inspired by Your Heart and look deep within for the dreams you hold so dear. It’s Time to find your passion and learn to pursue your Dreams so your life’s journey is an Awesome story and not just a sad tale of fear. By looking deep inside you will be Amazed at what you are capable of and discover the dreams that inspire you to Move Forward along this journey of life. Get Inspired! Don’t let fear or the uncertain mind hold you back. From the Head or From the Heart, it’s your choice.

In the world of Network Marketing this becomes very relative to our own success and especially to those we partner with in our business. If you are having to “sell” or “convince” people that Network Marketing is a better way then you will see a lot of failure in your business because they were not ready for Success. Unless they have the burning desire to make a change and learn something new then they will have a hard time moving forward because they came from the desperate mind and not the inspired heart. We look for those that are inspired to move forward and really want to change their current situation. We look for those that are looking for us! They have to make up their own mind that “Now IS the Time” for them to move forward with their journey and are willing to make the changes that can lead them to Success. I call it, “Is Your Biscuit Cooked?”, you can click on that link and read the blog I wrote about that as well. If it’s Your Time, Your Biscuit is Cooked, we can help. We look for like minded, inspired people that are ready to make the change and pursue their dreams, No Excuses!

Twenty Years From Now

Mark Twain once wrote; “Twenty Years from now you will be more disappointed by the things You didn’t do than by the ones you did do.”

Twenty years seem like such a long time, until it passes and you realize all those things you were going to accomplish have somehow gone unfinished. Life has a way of distracting our dreams and desires of our youth and sometimes, too often, keeps us in a situation that we really did not want. We get comfortable with our day to day life and just live in the now instead of our dreams, letting life keep us in the box. Twenty Years from now, where will you be?

This “comfort zone” that we all hear so much about is the daily struggle to pay bills, take care of our family and just get by in life and we have All been there. Sometimes it’s easier to just go with what you know instead of breaking out and taking another path, a path less traveled but a journey to a better life. Only by taking risk and learning different skill sets do we change the direction we are headed and move forward toward a more fulfilling life. Another Great quote is; “Never give up on a dream because of the time it will take to accomplish it, the time will pass anyway.” ~Earl Nightingale.

So, Twenty Years from now, what are you going to be doing and where will you be in your journey called life? This time is going to go by way quicker than you think and twenty years from now you will look back and say, Wow that was great or darn I should have done something different. It’s Your story and you are writing it day by day, you are the author, creator and You control this story of you. What do you want your story to be about? Will it be about drama and all the negative situations that made up the last twenty years or will this story be about adventure and fun times with positive people all around with memories that will last a lifetime?

You can’t change the direction of the wind but you Can change the set of the sail. Are you steering the ship or just drifting in the wind? You have the very unique ability to learn new skills and change your thinking to adjust the direction of life if you just re-set the sail. There is So Much More you can accomplish if you just decide what you want, determine what it will take to get there and just make a plan to GO, no excuses accepted. If it’s new skills you need then find the training and learn the gig, do the work and reap the reward. Maybe it’s the “friends” you have or the ones you hang around with that keep you where you are. Or maybe it’s all in your head? Yeah I know, sometimes that’s the only place it needs to be to affect your daily habits. What ever it is that is holding you back is of your own making and only You can make the change.

Twenty Years from now don’t be disappointed by what you didn’t do just because you let it slip by. Fear is just False Emotions Appearing Real and it steals more peoples dreams than anything in life. You can lean a new skill and put a plan into action that will make a difference Twenty Years from now. You are more powerful than you think and you are more capable than you know but only You can keep your dreams alive. Only You have the power to move your life in a direction that You want it to go. Only You have control over the next Twenty Years.

There are SO many things I wished I had done in the last Twenty Years and so many things I want to do in the next Twenty Years. Twenty Years from now I will be 73 and that is Amazing to say the least. The next Twenty Years are more important than the last because I have control over them where the last twenty are only a memory now. Oh, what I should have done and didn’t are just part of what I did do that makes us who we are and describes the value we bring to our life’s existence. Twenty Years From NOW, how Exciting is that?

We are on a mission to help others Elevate their Happiness and enjoy more of what life has to offer. We work in the Network Marketing arena because it gives an average person a chance to be Extraordinary. Yes you have to learn the skills and do the work but it way easier than going to school for years and years getting thousands and thousands of dollars in debt to become a lawyer or doctor or some other “professional” to make a living. If you just spent the next couple of years learning the simple skills need to excel at Network Marketing you could live the next Twenty Years in Amazing style. It’s your choice and your life and no one else can adjust your sail, it’s up to You!

Are Vacations Good for Your Health?

Could a Vacation actually be good for your health?

Research now proves that vacations are truly good for your physical health as well as your mental wellbeing. Today we want to bring you 7 ways to benefit from taking a vacation. The sad statistic is that only 4 out of 10 Americans will actually take their vacation time according to the U.S. Travel Association. Most skip out on taking their vacation due to the dreaded work pile they will encounter upon returning to their j.o.b. This is usually brought about by the “martyr” complex that leads people to believe that they are the only ones that can do their job, and sometimes, rightfully so.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics show that 9 million workers took a vacation in 1976 but only 7 million workers took a vacation in 2014. This survey found that most workers leave as much as 9.2 days of vacation unused and not taken advantage of here in America. Although some companies are encouraging a better balance between work, life and happiness many workers find it too stressful to take off like they should. Most U.S, workers have access to vacation time and it should be used for better health and wellbeing. Vacations are really good for you!

Here are 7 Ways to Benefit from Vacation:

Better Health: It has been proven that taking time off from the day to day grind reduces stress which leads to less risk of heart disease of heart attacks. Vacations can get you out of the rat race and give you time to unwind mentally and physically, leading to less stress and better health.
More Productive: Workers that take their vacation regularly are usually more productive upon returning to their work. Sometimes just getting away from work can give you the time you need to reset your mental clarity and return to work with more emphasis on your job and with a better work ethic.
Closer Family Relationship: One of the biggest benefits of taking a real Vacation is the effects on family relationships. This time spent enjoying family memories and adventures together become some of the most cherished family memories shared for many years to come. Family vacations help create better family bonds for the long term and bring families closer together in many ways.
Newer Perspective: Sometimes we just need to step away from our daily grind to get a better perspective of what we are doing and why. These moments of clarity remind us why we do what we do day in and day out. It helps to bring focus and gives us a better perspective of where we are in life and what is really important to us. Sometimes the view from the outside looking in is somewhat different then what we see on the inside looking out and this different environment gives us a better internal view of life.
Increased Mental Power: All work and no play might make you feel powerful at your work place but it can really drain the brains ability to be its best. We can use vacation time to replenish this brain power and get better clarity of who we are and what it is that we work so hard for. This gives the mind time to rest and look at things in a different light to analyze our current situation. Sometimes this reset of our brain power leads to some of our best ideas.
Lower Chance of Burn Out: This is a common problem in many work environments where people are working the grind 50 or even 60 hours a week, trying to keep everything going in one direction. Taking the time to go on vacation can break the cycle of Burn Out and increase your chance of not suffering burn out at work. Burn out is one of the biggest killers of work productivity and just causes more stress in the work place. Vacations break the cycle and allow you to step away long enough to reset yourself for a happier life.
Improved Mental Health: Vacation time gives us feelings of calm and relieves stress allowing the mind and body time to heal in ways it can’t when it’s under stress. Too often the stress from work not only brings us down mentally but can also affect our physical health that only brings on more mental stress. Vacations are a way to let your mind and body unwind and get away from the crazy life we live in the 9 to 5 grind.
Vacations can be Great for our health, wellbeing and overall Happiness. So, put the phone down, gather up the family and step away from the grind. Take this time to grow closer to the ones you love and spend time together. Again, PUT the Phone DOWN! If you are going to step away then Step Away from your work and normal grind. Don’t take the time to spend with your head down in your dumb phone. Get to know your kids, reconnect with your wife or significant other and truly spend the time together, not staring at the phone! Enjoy life and Love a Lot, play with your kids and let them know how much you really care. This time can heal many frustrating days when you just want to go crazy in the daily grind.

We want to help people Get Paid to live a Simple Life by enjoying more time with family and friends. Our goal is to help you create a lifestyle that brings about more freedom and security for you and your family and lifts you up to a better life. Vacations can be expensive but well worth it.
