Now seriously, don't take this lightly. I've been talking to a couple people here in Thailand who want to learn how to build a business online.

What Does Success Mean To YOU? Message From The Top Of a Mountian


Business success and personal success can be measured in so many ways. We can easily get caught up in making goals focusing on numbers... When that's really NOT what drives us.

So take a moment and figure out what you REALLY want out of building a Home Based Business.

You just got to see what it means for me - Spending time with friends and family, and being able to live a (pretty cool) lifestyle...

So what Does that look like for you?? There's a whole lot of flexibility and opportunity in building a home business, but i want to challenge you to get SPECIFIC on what you want, then get focused, and make it happen.

Alright, that's it for now!

Let's make 2010 the best year EVER!

And She Said, “You MUST Be CRAZY”…

Yesterday I was one of the first
to be out on the Mountain...

Oh, if you didn't know I traveled
out to British Columbia for a working
vacation... And it has been beyond
great!

I have been able to snowboard, relax,
meet GREAT people, and even sneak in
some work.

But I wanted to share with you
why I think we (yes, you and I)
are a bit 'Crazy'... (more...)

Jim Rohn, You Will Always Be Remembered…

This was a complete shock for me to learn... The Great Jim Rohn has passed away.

I remember when I was first introduced to Jim Rohn I was totally blown away by his Philosophies...

So much so I would go as far as to say he has changed the course of my life in a very positive way. For anyone who has had the priviledge of hearing his audios, or attending his seminars knows what a unique, imspirational man he has been. And if you haven't, check out his website to see what kind of impact this One man has had all over the world.

So many inspirational words come to mind when I reflect back on what I have learned from Jim.

A few of them I have above my desk:

"It's not the blowing of the wind, But the Set of Your Sail" (more...)

It Continues To Amaze Me… A Day At The Business Opportunity Show…

So, this past weekend I went to a Canada's National Franshise and Business Opportunity Show.

You might be wondering, well, were you a vendor in it?! AND... the answer is No.
Not because I didn't think it was a good opportunity, but because I learned about it a bit too late and I was happy to simply attend and check things out.

To be honest, I didn't even check to see what vendors would be there.. I was willing to bet an hours drive AND a Saturday afternoon that I was going to get a chance to see Network Marketers in ACTION.

And I was not dissapointed! (more...)

Radio Show Got Me Thinkin’ – What’s Our Personal History Going To Be?

I wanted to share with you something
that really OPENED MY EYES...

As I was driving down a country road
I was listening to a radio show on
102.1 (in case you know it) about the
history of some Bands.
radio1

Just so you know, growing up I NEVER
liked history much...

But I'm starting to gain an immense
appreciation for it. Here's why;

The radio show was talking about

WHAT IF...

Such things as; What If Bono (the lead
singer for U2) quit the band for
good when they had broke up..?

What amazed me about this show is the
detail that they went into showing
the CHAIN of events leading up to great
success stories, and also stories where
people just.. well disappear.

And there always seems to be a few defining
moments in our lives where we're at
the 'fork in the road' - and are really
trying to figure out which way to go.

Well, I just wanted to point that out.
Do you know your defining moment(s)??

Are you really living life to your
fullest potential?

I feel that its good for each us to
take a step back and really look at
where we're headed and ask;

Are we truly happy with the direction
we're headed...?

Sometimes I'm asked "How did you get into building
a Home Business?" and "How did you learn
these new ways to build?"

And the simple answer is - I try to gage my decisions on a simple question:

Will doing x move me closer to my overall
'vision' goals - dreams etc...

I then ask, What is the risk with doing x
versus, what is the potential gains?

I think it's in our blood as entrepreneures
to take risks -

AS hard as it can be sometimes to take the
step forward, I was reminded that THOSE are
the times that we will look back on and say,

"Thank God I Did That"

So my appreciation for history has increased
enormously for we can get a glimsp at what
happened that made someone so successful;
(in whatever sense that means for them) and learn
from it.

So just remember that EVERYDAY we are
writing the pages of our own history...

If you have a defining moment You would
like to share - feel free to do so below :)

The Absolute Best Way To Connect With More People Than Ever Possible Before – Videos

I was hanging out, doing some work on the beach when I decided to shoot a quick video on something that I realized has changed my business Drastically.  It's called video marketing - and I just wanted to share my thoughts on how truly powerful it is...

[local /wp-content/uploads/2009/08/video-marketing.flv]

I like I said in the video - if you haven't yet got comfortable on video - it's now time to start.

Worried about what others are going to think?

Here's the nice thing - if and when you do mess up on video, it's NOT a bad thing.  All it does is show others that YES, you are a real person and they will start to think, "If s/he can do it... so can I!"

I look forward to hearing your success with being able to connect with MORE people using video.

Stay tuned for trainings on how to get video marketing to work for you in your business.
