I recently moved from one location in California to another. It was a crazy couple of days to say the least. I learned something very important from the experience that I would like to share with you.
- Image via Wikipedia
I want to share with you what happens with hard core focused unwavering energy.
Imagine for a moment if you will that you are moving. Take a look around you if you happen to be at home while reading this. Look at all of your possessions, look at everything. Now imagine that you have to get all of that stuff from your house to another house and you have just two days to do it. I mean everything.
Here are some of the things you might have to do.
1. Call movers
2. Ask friends for help
3. Clean
4. Get boxes
5. Negotiate with movers
6. Time the move
7. Turn off gas, water, power.
8. Turn on gas, water, power at new place
9. Turn off internet and cable
10. Turn on internet and cable at new place
11. Pack clothes
ect….
I think you get the idea. A lot has to happen during a move.
Guess what…..
Regardless of what has to happen, we always get it done. Many times afterwards we say to ourselves. “WoW, I don’t know how we just did that”
It takes an incredible amount of focused energy to accomplish this. You can’t really allow any distractions to come in because it might throw you off.
So here is the thought that came to me. I know it’s not original, but I wanted share it just the same.
What if you treated your business like a crazy move. Just for 3 days a month or every other month. You won’t be able to sustain it because you would just get completely burned out. Just little sprints here and there with complete focused almost maniacal energy. Just go crazy with your business. No distractions, no let up just make some Incredibly Giant to do lists, lists that you know will never get done and attack those lists like a nut job.
After I completed my move, Julie and I were mentally and physically spent. That’s how you should feel after one of the sprints. Imagine what your business will look like if you do this just every once in a while.
A favorite quote of mine from Stephen Pierce goes like this. “What will make you great is not found in the world of easy and convenient.” I think about that quote quite a bit. I love to read biographies of highly successful entrepreneurs and people. One thing I noticed about all of them. They take incredible amounts of consistent action. In other words. They get stuff done. 
Let’s all get more stuff done. It feels really good at the end of the day when you do.

This post here is actually more of a question than an opinion. As I absolutely love the home 
based business industry and entrepreneurship I’ve done quite a bit reading from materials written by Dan Kennedy. He is a copy writing guru, but also has a ton of great training on small business success. He’s a self made millionaire and is highly respected as a speaker and copy writer. He actually collects fees of over $50,000 dollars for a single piece. This is in no way a Dan Kennedy pitch. I’ve just learned a great deal from him and so trust what he has to say.
Now, I’ve heard time and time again from various sources, that when it comes to working from home or starting some sort of a small business from home. That you should pick something that you are very passionate about. For instance, if you happen to have a great deal of passion for butterflies. You should in some way make your business about that passion. If your passion is golf, then you should make your business about golf.
Now when I first heard this concept, it made absolute sense to me. I mean if you are going to be spending hours a day on your work, then you should be feeling passion for that work right? I thought, you’ll most likely need that passion to stay motivated with so many distractions coming at you since you are most likely working from home.
Since I never really found an MLM that contained my personal passions as part of their business model. I would simply tell myself that my success in business was the stepping stone for me to be able to pursue my passions. It’s the only solution that I could come up with.
Then I read a book on business success written by Dan Kennedy. He basically said in the book, that trying to start a business that is based on you passions is the dumbest thing that you could possible do. According to him, your passions have absolutely nothing to do with the potential success or failure of your 
business. It truly is only about your business. Are you in a good market? Do you have a quality product? Are you marketing properly etc.
When I read this for the first time it actually annoyed me a little bit, because I had spent so much time in the other mind set. Fortunately for me I always keep an open mind to new ideas and new ways of thinking. If a new way of thinking benefits me, then I will certainly adopt it and search for even better ways of thinking.
After marinating on this new concept for about a week. It really started to make much more sense to me. It just seemed to be more realistic. Now does that mean that you should pick a business that you absolutely hate just because it makes you a tremendous amount of money? I don’t know, but I don’t’ think so. I think the point is that you have to look at facts, figures, numbers and reality. You can’t just assume that because your feel passion for something and work hard at it that it automatically will make you wealthy. Although that is a wonderful idea, I just don’t believe that it’s reality.
Maybe you disagree with me and that’s why I wrote this post. I would love to get your feedback and thoughts on this very topic.
Please comment.
Do what you love and that’s it?
Do what makes sense in the market and try to fuse your passion with it?
What do you think?

- LGN Revolution
Elite is the highest package available. When you purchase the Elite
package you aquire all of the products and re-sale rights in all three
levels. It’s a huge savings to do it this way.
Pricing and Compensation
LGN Elite
Our most popular program, qualified members earn $800 on each LGN Elite
sale you generate through your system except for your first. The first
qualifying sale is passed up your sponsor. In addition to earning $800
on each sale you will also earn $198 override commissions each time one

As a Qualified LGN Elite 3 LGN Sales X $800 Commissions = $2400 $2400 Commissions x 52 Weeks = $124,800 |
Not Bad…Right? Well
there is more!!
Remember the first commission
you passed up to get qualified? Each of your Personally Sponsored
members (PS Members) must do the same thing to make their
qualification. That means for their first sale you will receive the
entire $998 commission. In addition you will receive $198 each time one
of your personally sponsored members makes an LGN Elite sale from that
sale forward!
| Example:
156 New PS Members (3 sales per week for 52 weeks) X $998 (New PS |
But
Wait…That’s just if your team members get
qualified meaning they only make one LGN Elite Sale EVER! Chances are
they will make several a month. You can create some massive leverage
with our system.
Let’s imagine only
50% of your 156 PS Members make 5 LGN Elite Sales a Month
|
That is some SERIOUS INCOME!!!!
Believe it or not there is more!! We only illustrated you receiving the
pass up from your PS Members on your first line.
Take a look at how powerful the
one up portion of our compensation plan can be.
|
Example:
|
This goes on until infinity!!!
Talk about leverage!
*Example
listed above does not include The LGN Xtreme or LGN Revolution
Programs!! All 3 levels have the same payout structure as listed above
but with different amounts; you have massive income potential with all
3 programs!
OK, ok, so the above information is taken right from the LGN website.
Although there are no guarantees in life with anything, this
opportunity has many things going for it.
The price point it right because it is not above the $1000 threshold.
The products are right as they are digital and so there is no need for
storage. They can be purchased from anyone anywhere on the planet.
The commissions are huge.
The thing is that in this company or with any direct sales or mlm
company you need to have a system in place. If you don’t have a rock
solid system in place your failure is just about guaranteed.
I happen to use a 3 step system that is designed to generate a ton of
daily leads for you, and also closes your sales for you every week on
complete autopilot.

If you are using a blog to generate lead flow then surely you are using SEO. Search Engine Optimization. For those not familiar with the term it simply means that you get google to notice your blog or any piece of content that you write and place on the Internet. You can do this by writing posts on your blog or you can do this by writing articles or using other formats that I won’t get into here.
In order to get your blog or content ranking high in the search engines you need what are called back links. This means that other sites are linking from their site to yours. There are many methods of doing this. I show you one method in this blog post. It’s backlinking by mass submitting articles. While this method works, it is just one method. Click Here to watch the video on how to get 3000 backlinks in 1 hour.
- Image via Wikipedia
The number of backlinks pointing to your blog or content is one important factor. Another factor that may be even more important is the authority of the site that is linking to you. All sites have what is called a PR (Page Rank) number. The numbers go from n/a – 10. Most sites on the net have n/a no ranking at all. Facebook on the other hand has a PR 10. A link pointing to your blog/content on the net with a PR 2 is about 100 times more powerful than a link with a PR 1. It continues that way all the way up the scale.
In addition, getting links to your blog or content from sites that end with the extension .edu or .gov are more powerful than sites that end in .com or .net etc.
Here is an example of some content that I got ranked in google in the very first spot of google. I goes up and down between one and two depending on the day. Go to google and type in the words (Jeff Scam) My content is titled “A comprehensive review of the Jeff Paul System” The term has 2,480,000 competing pages and I got it ranked in just a few days with simple back linking.
One simple way of getting links to sites is by posting comments on blogs that have a high PR. The trick is in how to find them.
Well I’m going to show you how to find them right here.
linkdomain:www.goarticles.com +site:.edu -site:.com -site:www.goarticles.com
Copy and past the above search query into your browser EXACTLY as it is here. It has to be exactly the same with spaces etc or it will not work.
This will find blogs that allow you to make comment posts directly to edu sites.
You can do the same for sites that end in .gov though you will find that there are far fewer sites. Just replace the .edu in the link above with .gov
You can also exchange www.goarticles.com with www.ezinearticles.com and this will bring you a bunch more blogs that you can backlink from as well.
One thing to mention is that this is considered back link spamming be some people. You want to make your comment relevant to the post. Try to provide some value to the page. As you are searching through these sites you will see that most people don’t do this. I recommend that you do.
That’s it. You can now find and get backlinks from Authority sites that end in .gov or .edu on command.

FREE COURSE
Now there is a bit more that goes into this. You have to use the word that you want to rank for in your back link. It’s a bit much to explain in one simple blog post. There is a free course that you can access by clicking here that will show you all there is to know about backlinking. Even more ways to find additional sites to link to your blog or content. Access the free course by clicking here. I hope you find it useful. I use the techniques each and every day for my direct sales business.

Although I absolutely love our industry because of everything that it can represent. Freedom, entrepreneur ism, 
fun, adventure, creativity, independence and community to name a few. There is one thing that I absolutely cannot stand about our industry.
HYPE
I remember when I first got started in network marketing about 10 years ago or so. I won’t mention the company, because it really doesn’t matter. But I will tell you that the presentation was pretty much a HYPE feast. When I first arrived there was heart thumping raver music playing in the background. Not to say that I was expecting Vivaldi’s “Winter” from “The Four Seasons” to be playing or Sounds of the tropical rain forest. But I also wasn’t expecting to start raving either.
I’m more joking here than being angry. Life’s to short, know what I mean?
Anyway….
The presentation started with the first presenter on stage. This was a lower lever leader in the company. If you want to equate it to a military rank I would say maybe a lieutenant or a captain. A nice story about the company and how wonderful it is. That’s understandable, I mean after all this is a business meeting to get new reps into the business.
After about 15 minutes or so, the lights were dimmed and we were shown the company movie. Still all systems are go.
Then it was time to introduce what I would call one of the Generals. This is one of those super star grand high exalted mystic rulers. This guys is standing in the back of the room and when he starts walking up towards the stage. 
EVERYONE stood up and started clapping. Since everyone was doing it, I did too. Why? I have no idea, I didn’t even know who this guy was, but I still stood up clapping. Was it mind control??? I’m just kidding, but I know I wasn’t the only brand new person there and everyone was off there feet clapping for this person that they didn’t know. That’s Hype in my opinion.
Anyway, he gave his presentation talking about the business and the money and the lifestyle and how if you just tell 2 people that tell 2 people that tell 2 people, in a short while you’d be making 10k – 20k per month.
That is what I can’t stand about our industry. That is complete nonsense. I mean, yes, mathematically it works. But the math does not copy reality in this case. That never happens. Maybe once upon a time when network marketing was in it’s infancy something along those lines may have happened. But it doesn’t today. Which is why about 90% of people that get started in a network marketing company quit within their first 90 days.
The company didn’t live up to the hype. Nor could it.
If you want to make a full time income from home, you absolutely can do it.
But first you have to figure out a few things.
1. How soon do you want to be making a full time income.
2. How much money do you have to invest into your business?
3. How much time do you have to invest into your business?
If you feel comfortable with the fact that in most cases it will take the average person that talks to about 5 people per day about their business 2 – 5 years to get to full time income. Then you will do well in a network marketing company. Obviously do your research on the company and pick one that has a product in alignment with your interests.
If you are wanting to generate full time income more quickly from home then you will need a direct sales or top tier company. The profit margins are much higher, and you make much more per sale. It’s the fastest way that I know if to go full time in the industry. Again you will have to do your due diligence in picking the right company.
Either way, telling 2 people about your business won’t cut it. You’ll need a specific marketing strategy. You’ll need a consistent way to generate leads and some sort of a funnel to run those leads through in order to sort them. 
You’ll need some way to track and collect data so that you can increase your marketing in the areas that are showing the most profit.
In other words you need to treat your business like a business and not some “thing” that you kinda do every once in a while.
If you get serious about your marketing, tracking and your process. You can absolutely go full time in the industry in a matter of months with a very serious income. It is possible, but these are the things that you will need to do.
Don’t let the hype fool you. This industry is wonderful, but in order to successful you have to do things in a certain way.

I’ve been re-reading a book by Dr. Dwayne Dyer called “Real Magic”
I don’t know if you are familiar with his work but he’s huge in the spiritual development self improvement field. He has specials on PBS and a library of books that he’s written over the years.
In that particular book there is a chapter on prosperity that is very powerful. It’s funny how you can re-read certain things and it’s as though you are reading them for the very first time.
In this chapter on prosperity Dr. Dyer talks about how our circumstances reflect our thought processes. That would include our business circumstances as well.
Many of us in the home based industry got involved because we were looking for a financial break through.
Generally what happens is that we are introduced to the industry via some sort of presentation, whether it be online or at a hotel meeting or conference call or whatever.
This is where we hear these stories about life changing events.
We hear stories about people being broke and depressed and just about ready to lose everything. Or, we hear about people not knowing what they want to do with their lives, people that were just looking for “something.”
Many of us can relate to these stories and so when we see the results of these individuals participation in the company we become very excited, wanting the same level of success for ourselves and for our families.
That’s great, it’s a wonderful thing to live life with passion and a powerful goal.
But that’s where it get’s funny.
What happens I believe is that here is where we begin to fight rather than to flow. Getting people into your downline becomes the focus. So we fight to get it. We grind out more and more ways to talk to more people and generate more leads. Mentally we are in a battle with ourselves to figure out the “best” way to do things that will be the most effective.
The trouble with that is that “we” are actually primarily energy. That’s proven, so it’s not me just saying that. The universe is mostly space, and although we appear to be solid individuals made up of flesh and bone. We are actually mostly space, or energy. So is everything else. That’s why your thoughts create your reality . 
So, if we are grinding each and every day. Fighting to make our business a success we are actually “creating” the struggle for ourselves. We are so focused on achieving the goal that we are not flowing with the moment. Then we base our feelings on whether or not we achieved that goal. We feel good if we did and we feel bad if we don’t. Then we compare ourselves with other people. If we have a bigger team perhaps we feel better, but if they have a bigger team, then why is that? Why are they better than we are, and so the fight in our mind continues and we continue to create more of the same.
If we would just forget about the outcome for just a minute and focus instead on the task at hand with full purpose, the pressure removes itself and we are much, much closer to the flow. When we begin to see ourselves as mostly “space” or “energy” and realize that our thoughts over time are actually creating the circumstances because they determine our actions. Then we would be much more able to create circumstances that are in alignment with prosperity, ease, and fun.
Think of someone right now that seems to be in flow. Someone that you look to who seems to have everything that you desire in your own life. Whether it be money, possessions, business, whatever. Ok, got it? Now, just know that the
energy flowing through that person is the very same energy that is flowing through you. The only difference is in the way that person is perceiving the energy, in the way they are shaping or molding the energy. That’s the only difference. Your abundance is already there, the energy is everywhere including streaming through you right now. It contains everything that you could ever desire. The only thing preventing that energy from manifesting your desires is your mind.
Forget about your business. Be purposeful in your tasks. By be purposeful I mean to say, perform each task without attachment to a goal. When you speak to someone on the phone about your business. Don’t be attached to the outcome of the call. Be with that person on the call 100% with the purpose of service and helping that person in their life in some way shape or form. That’s it. Nothing else. When you do this, you are moving closer to the flow. Then when you are in the flow, prosperity automatically shows up because that’s what prosperity is. Remember you are mostly space/energy, so when your energy or space becomes prosperity so will it manifest into the physical as well.
I know that this might sound a bit woo woo or like mumbo jumbo to some of you. If that’s the case then let me just say this. If things in your life and business are not the way that you want them to be right now, just try it out for 30 days. If things don’t drastically change for you in a positive way after that time, then you can go back to doing things the way that you’ve been doing them and tell me that I was dead wrong.
Let me finish off this post by wishing you abundance, prosperity and joy.

This post is not exactly about business topics or tactics although it most certainly does effect your business in a big
way. This is something that happened to me over the weekend and although it really sucked, I’m also really glad that it happened.
On Saturday I was in the back of my house and I was planning on watering some plants and hosing some things down as well. On the side of the house is where I keep the hose. When I went to grab it I noticed that below the hose was a small puddle of water. I didn’t think too much about it because water collects there from time to time when I’m watering etc.
When I looked a little closer I realized that this water hadn’t come from the hose but was actually coming from under ground up through the cement. Needless to say I wasn’t happy. I’m certainly no plumber but I wanted to investigate the situation a bit further. I got a hammer and a screwdriver and started making a small hole where the water was seeping up. The pipe was only about 1/2″ below the concrete. I found it quickly. Sure enough, the pipe had a hole in it.
Just stay with me, I’ll get to what this has to do with money in a second .
It was obvious by the hole in the pipe that before laying the cement someone punctured the pipe and rather than fix it, they just poured cement over the top. I had already shut the water off to the house and I want to turn it back on to see how bad the leak was. Well the water shot up about 12 feet in the air like a small geyser. I couldn’t believe it, it was a huge leak.
I called the insurance company. I don’t know if any of you have ever called your insurance company about a situation like this, but it was the vaguest conversation I’ve ever had. They didn’t cover it because nothing was damaged inside of the house. Next I called my plumber. He came over to take a look and confirmed that yes there was leak and yes there was a hole in the pipe. My diagnosis was correct, I have more plumbing skills than I originally thought.
We made a deal that he would come over on Sunday and fix the leak. That meant that we had a night without water. That’s another story all by itself. When one of life’s basic necessities and the ease at which we receive it is cut off even for a short while, it changes your perspective on things.
Anyway, my plumber came over yesterday and fixed the leak. Now here’s the fun part.
The first shower that I took after the leak was fixed was different than any other had been since we moved in over 3 years ago. The water fresher was much, much higher. That means, that the leak was pouring out water underground for over 3 full years. It almost makes me sick to think how much water was wasted and how much money got leaked into that hole under ground. I’m sure it was thousands. ;-(
Now there was no way for us to know other than asking our neighbors what their monthly water bills were. We just assumed that our bill was what it was and never second guessed. The house we moved into was a larger house and so we expected a larger bill.
I’m a believer in the concept that our outside surroundings are many times a reflection of what’s going on inside of us. If I believe that in this case, I’m actually very grateful. It means that some sort of leak, whether it be energy or money revealed itself and was stopped.
Again, we had no idea that the leak was there, but it was. Maybe we could have done some things to prevent all of the waste, I don’t know. The point is that it made me more aware that it’s possible to have these kinds of leaks in our lives and not even notice them because they are beneath the surface.
Do you have any leaks that you don’t know about?
Take some time to reflect on your life and see if you can find any areas where you might be leaking money or energy. If you don’t look you might miss it. We didn’t look and we did. Now it’s plugged up and so I’m sharing this with you in case you are leaking.
Hope this was insightful or helpful in some way.
Post a comment and tell me about any leaks that you may have experienced in your own life.
