The past couple of months have been very busy for us. Our simple home business has seen astronomical growth. Monthly income records have been broken. People are earnestly seeking a way to stay afloat in the midst of company failures and the resulting job losses. We are so blessed to be able to show people that times like this offer tremendous opportunities for the optimistic and creative. It's been said that more millionaires were created during the Great Depression that at any other time in history.
Think about it. Opportunities abound in our country and world for someone with a new idea. We have more technology and tools for instant communication than ever before. Also, hard times bring about more cooperation between people than competition. Cooperation means that together we can assist each other in ways we never considered when we sat comfortably in a cubicle depending on a boss to direct our time. Our direct sales business operates from the ideal that the more one of us succeeds, the more we all succeed.
When we decided to become entrepreneurs, it was a little scary. No more corporate benefits such as group health insurance or a 401K plan. However it was exhilarating to be free from being a slave to a time clock and work schedule. Time is our most precious gift. Time represents life itself. None of knows how much of it we will be blessed with. Therefore, it is a sacrilege to sell this time to someone (a corporate boss) who doesn't appreciate or value our sacrifice.
So, right now, if you have been given the opportunity to re-evaluate your life and how you want it to look, think about it from the ending. Between now and your death, what kinds of goals are dear to you? The slate is clean. Start writing your story. The only limitations are the ones in your own mind. My life is better than ever. My goals are bigger than ever. I have the opportunity to make a huge difference in my world. I owe it to God, my family and myself to become the best me possible. So do you.
To your creative success,
Sandra Hayes

If It's So Amazingly Simple.....
So, I sat here yesterday and this morning scratching my head. You see, I've talked to a number of people this week who claim they want to earn at least $100,000 a year. They're working too many hours, never see their children, don't make enough money to do anything but scrape by, etc. Then, I present what I do and how I do it, and most of them are reluctant to simply do what it takes to change their lives.
As I think about successful people, I ask myself what is different about the person who earns $30,000 a month from the person who only earns $30,000 a year? Belief is the first on the list. One has to believe it is possible to earn in a month what most people only earn in a year. The second is deservability. Do only 3% of us deserve wealth in our lives? Of course not - we were all created equally in the sight of God. And the third and very important difference is determination.
You can talk about wanting something all day long but you have to be determined to make it happen for it to manifest itself. The universe is very abundant and gives us opportunities everyday to excel and create more in our lives. Our job is simply to recognize those opportunities and do whatever it takes for as long as it takes to realize our goals. Andy Andrews says that successful people are different because they "persist without exception."
The secret here is that we each have within our minds and hearts to create anything we desire. Those who truly believe that fact and then take the action to bring our desires into reality are really living. I thank God everyday that I woke up and realized this before it was too late. How about you? Are you ready to change your life? It's so amazingly simple and only requires a decision.

Can This Business Get Any Simpler?
As I write this blog, I am sitting in The Bahamas awaiting the second day of this fabulous Summit Conference to kick off. Last night I witnessed the presentations of the people who won the top awards in our company, Liberty League International, for the past 3 1/2 months. The top earner, Rachel Oliver, has earned over a million dollars this year. Rachel only made the decision to become an associate here a little over a year ago. Interestingly enough, Rachel lives in Australia. Rachel admits to some initial skepticism which she conquered in order to reach her goals. Then she simply plugged into our simple system and stayed focused.
It's funny how many times I have heard the expression that ours is a simple business with a simple 3 step system in place. Just follow the system and you will succeed. I know the system. I follow the system. I teach others to follow the system. Some follow it and succeed. Others get side-tracked for one reason or another and don't follow the system and don't succeed. For some reason, we humans would rather focus on obstacles and problems, real or imagined, than focus on the solutions we have been so graciously given.
Often, we talk to people like Rachel and ask her what her secret is. There must be some magic dust or some hidden information that we are lacking, right? Wrong. Why in the world would a company and its associates keep the secrets to success to themselves? We all know that we only succeed in life to the extent that we also assist others in succeeding. The secret is simply to believe in yourself, believe in the system, and believe in the abundance that exists in our world.
I know who I am. I know where I'm going. And I know that my business is absolutely suited to getting me there. It's simple. The 3-step system is simple. It works - that has been proven time and again over the past 7 years. If you are ready to take your life to some amazing new levels, contact me for the simple but powerful answer. I love sharing this business - when one of us like Rachel, you, or me succeeds, we all succeed. We become the solution in our world. Can it get any simpler?

Keeping It Simple In Today's Economy
So, what do you really think about all the hoopla concerning today's economic climate? Chances are your life hasn't really changed any in the past 2 weeks. Mine has continued to amaze and excite me about the future. Early last week we wondered if we would be able to visit family in Florida because of the apparent gasoline shortages. We went to Florida without a problem and paid less for gas than we have at other times. I have some funds invested with Merrill Lynch. They are still there. Our business continues to hum along and attract really intelligent people who finally realize that there must be a better way to make a really decent living than by selling their time for money.
If you are tempted to fear the future because of what the media tells you, relax. I invite you to read Walter Williams' most recent column, "Scaring Us To Death," at http://www.gmu.edu/departments/economics/wew/articles/08/Scaring%20Us%20to%20Death.htm Our world has existed and thrived for thousands of years. It's not about to stop tomorrow. It's time to change your thinking so that it really reflects what you know to be true rather than what others want you to think. Do you believe that some people make a lot of money (multiple six and seven figures per year)? If so, do you believe you can be one of them? I cannot tell you what to think or who to believe. I can show you what I believe and how I have changed my life, however.
The best news I have for you is that right now you are where you are because of the decisions you have made. There is no point in blaming the government or your mother. Why is this good news? It is good news because since you caused your circumstances, you can also change your circumstances. If this were not true, you would be stuck. You would be a victim with no chance. You are not a victim and I am proof of that fact.
If you would like to learn more about what thousands of us do everyday to create our livestyles of wealth and freedom, contact me. Otherwise, keep doing what you're doing. I hope you're having fun. Now the biggest decision I have to make is which showing of Fireproof to attend tomorrow. If we don't talk, have a great weekend. I'll be keeping it simple today like I do everyday.
To your success and peace of mind,

The Value Of A College Education
If you are like me, we grew up hearing how important an education is. Then we got one and what good did it really turn out to be? It makes some difference but not enough as far as I'm concerned. Now that I'm an entrepreneur, I have an entirely different mindset. Education is for obtaining wisdom and learning things that you enjoy. A real education has nothing to do with writing papers to please a professor's point of view.
The company I work with, Liberty League International, was started by 2 guys without a college education. One was a drummer and the other a car stereo installer! What they did have was determination and optimism. They have obtained a tremendous education along the way - primarily in business and personal development. My colleagues here read more books and remember what they read more than anyone I ever worked with in corporate America.
I became an entrepreneur because I realized that corporate America had no interest in my financial well-being. It actually had no interest in any aspect of my well-being. Rather than lament that it took me so long to wake up, I am grateful that I woke up before waiting another minute.
I encourage you to read the column by Walter Williams. If you believe that it is time for you take charge of your own life, call me. I will assist you in taking the same amazing steps that I did. Ours really is an amazingly simple business.
To Your Success,
Sandra Hayes

How I Spend My Time and My Life
"How you spend your days is how you spend your life." I recently heard this statement and it had a profound effect on me. It caused me to pause in my activities and assess my true priorities. Think about where you spend most of your time and money. This exercise will show you what you deem to be most important in your life.
Now, imagine that you have come to the end of your time on earth and are looking back at your life. Are you happy with how you spent the time you were allotted? If you are like me and rank your priorities as God, family, and job, is that reflected in your life? For too many years I woke before daylight, rushed to get ready, and drove to a job where I spent all day giving my best to make a difference. I came home too weary to give any more because it was all gone. I would crawl into bed and do it all again the next day. And I did this for YEARS!!
Meanwhile, my children grew up, my parents grew old, and my body showed signs of wear and tear. Thank heaven I woke up and saw the futility of what I was doing before my time was up!! You see, I had resigned myself to a life of mediocrity, hoping for some semblance of security. I wasn't created to live a secure life and neither were you. We were created to be creative. To take risks. To dream big and achieve goals that are scary.
Today I realized that my life is so much bigger and better than ever. I looked at my calendar and saw that today I was getting a new hairstyle, bringing my elderly mother to my home for the afternoon, walking my dogs, and doing some marketing. Each of these activities is a step toward my achieving some specific goals, be they personal or professional.
When I look at my calendar for the next month, I see a visit from our children and their families for Labor Day Weekend. I also see a mission trip in late September and a business trip to the Bahamas in October. These are the very reasons I left the job that was robbing me of so much time and energy. I feel very empowered knowing that I had the courage to make the decisions that caused this to happen.
Look at your calendar. Does it excite you or bring you down? Have you been thinking about how to take control of your life and time? Call me. My amazingly simple home business may be the answer you're looking for.

Every Home Business Entrepreneur Has A Why
To succeed in a home business you need a "Why." Simply put, your why is the reason you choose to work for yourself and stay motivated without a boss standing over you. Part of becoming successful in the home business arena is defining your why. It took me a little while to determine mine. I knew I needed more free time - but why? I also wanted more money - but why?
I can define my "why" in one word, grandchildren. Until last Friday, June 27, 2008, at 4:48 PM EDT, my "why" was a grandchild. That "why", Allen, who is 3 1/2 years old, was enough to keep me motivated for the past year. Now that Alexa has joined the family, my why has increased exponentially. And come late December, our other daughter is due to bring another grandchild to this why. I am totally loving it.
You see, some of the grandmothers I worked with have grandchildren who live nearby. That still wouldn't be good enough for me. I need lots of freedom to go to the zoo, the beach, swimming, reading books, riding bikes, playing ball, and taking part in make believe play. (Last night I waterskiied with a ribbon and belt tied to a bedpost. You would have loved it.) Also my grandchildren live almost 500 miles away! No way I can do that in a weekend.
So you see, at an age too young for convential retirement, I was compelled to find a way to have flexibility with my shedule and money to spend, save and set up some trust funds. It does take money to travel and play in style. And it takes money to produce some decent assets. Thank goodness my plan is working! I just got home tonight from a week with the grandchildren and I'm going back soon for another week. There is no way this would have happened with my j-o-b that gave me 2 weeks of vacation a year!
How about you? Do you have a compelling "why" to cause you to look at working for yourself? Remember this is an amazingly simple home business. And it won't take long for you to evaluate it for yourself. Then you can decide if your "why" is a compelling reason to say goodbye to your boss and hello to freedom.

Do You Believe Success In A Home Business Is Possible?
I remember telling my hairdresser several years ago that my goal is be able to work from home. Her response was a cynical, "Don't we all?" I'm not sure I totally believed it myself, but I had a vision in my mind of how it would look and feel. Because of this vision, I recognized the opportunity when it presented itself and knew this was the answer I was looking for.
Of course there was some initial doubt. Can I really do this? Is there a market for people interested in personal development as well as a direct sales business? Well, I and thousands before me were interested, right? Liberty League had been alive and growing for almost 6 years then (8 years now). So a lot of people liked what they saw and took a leap of faith just like we did.
Okay, so now you think it's possible, but what does it take? Our first requirement is that people have a burning desire to succeed in their own business. The second requirement is that they be coachable and trainable. Our system is proven to work and it's simple. People who think they have to reinvent the wheel by changing everything and making it more complicated will lose focus and become exhausted.
One of our main principles is that of Be, Do, and Have. Be the leader, Do what other leaders do, and then you'll Have what other leaders have. If you are looking for a relatively inexpensive (not free) way to start a home franchise with the possibility of earning a multiple six figure income working 20 - 25 hours a week, contact me. My chief purpose in life is to assist others (including you) to believe in themselves and reach their fullest potential.
So, do you believe that it's possible to succeed in home business? I know it is very possible. Do you believe it's possible for you to succeed in a home business? I know it's possible as long as you are willing to follow the system and believe in yourself. Are you happy with your life, job, and income right now? Are you willing to change things for the better? People contact me everyday looking for a better way. How about you? Isn't it time to at least consider what is possible?

Life And Business Were Created To Be Simple
Considering that I am my own boss, I have the freedom to ponder things any time I feel like it. When I used to work for someone else, I was expected to stay on task and accomplish the goals my boss was buying my time for me to do. Do you get that? When you work for someone else, you are selling them your time. Add up all you time and that equals to your life. Employees actually sell their very lives in exchange for money. Yikes! That thought even scares me. Another thought I've pondered is why people choose to struggle and stay broke when there is a simpler way.
Given that I am a student of The Bible, I am very familiar with the creation stories in Genesis. There we learn that God created man and woman in his very image and put them in a lush garden where all their needs were simply met. He put only one requirement on them and that was to abstain from eating the fruit of one tree. They could eat freely from all the other trees, just not the one. Pretty simple assignment, right? So why did they choose to try it their way instead and as a result end up struggling for the rest of their lives? Obviously, I don't have a simple answer to this question. Theologically, it involves the fact that people want to be like God. But since we know we can't, the next question I ponder is how can I get back to living simply like God intended for me to.
Okay, so what does living simply actually look like? Does it involve a job? A lot of money? A home of my own? Feeling productive? Doing the things I enjoy rather than doing what I abhor? You may be wondering why having a lot of money simplifies life. Quite simply, broke people are always worrying and struggling to get by while wealthy people can relax and focus on what they enjoy without having to worry about paying for food, clothing, shelter, etc.
The next obvious question I ask myself is how can I find a way to live simply yet abundantly. Obviously, I can't achieve this by selling my time (life) for money someone else pays me out of their earnings. And I can't simply sit back and expect riches to fall into my lap. So I have to DO something, right? Well, what can I do? The obvious answer is to own the business and not work for the owner. I don't want to spend the time and money required for a franchise - that's not simple enough for me. Nor is a brick and mortar business. So I continued to look and found my current business which is network marketing. Professors at Harvard Business School will tell you that network marketing is the purest and most lucrative form of free enterprise.
Does the possibility of five figures a month appeal to you? Some of my friends in our company are making six figures a month but five figures currently satisfies my needs. If either of these goals sounds appealing to you, contact me. Life and business were created to be simple and I am grateful to have found that out sooner rather than later.
To your success.

Given that I am a student of The Bible, I am very familiar with the creation stories in Genesis. There we learn that God created man and woman in his very image and put them in a lush garden where all their needs were simply met. He put only one requirement on them and that was to abstain from eating the fruit of one tree. They could eat freely from all the other trees, just not the one. Pretty simple assignment, right? So why did they choose to try it their way instead and as a result end up struggling for the rest of their lives? Obviously, I don't have a simple answer to this question. Theologically, it involves the fact that people want to be like God. But since we know we can't, the next question I ponder is how can I get back to living simply like God intended for me to.
Okay, so what does living simply actually look like? Does it involve a job? A lot of money? A home of my own? Feeling productive? Doing the things I enjoy rather than doing what I abhor? You may be wondering why having a lot of money simplifies life. Quite simply, broke people are always worrying and struggling to get by while wealthy people can relax and focus on what they enjoy without having to worry about paying for food, clothing, shelter, etc.
The next obvious question I ask myself is how can I find a way to live simply yet abundantly. Obviously, I can't achieve this by selling my time (life) for money someone else pays me out of their earnings. And I can't simply sit back and expect riches to fall into my lap. So I have to DO something, right? Well, what can I do? The obvious answer is to own the business and not work for the owner. I don't want to spend the time and money required for a franchise - that's not simple enough for me. Nor is a brick and mortar business. So I continued to look and found my current business which is network marketing. Professors at Harvard Business School will tell you that network marketing is the purest and most lucrative form of free enterprise.
Does the possibility of five figures a month appeal to you? Some of my friends in our company are making six figures a month but five figures currently satisfies my needs. If either of these goals sounds appealing to you, contact me. Life and business were created to be simple and I am grateful to have found that out sooner rather than later.
To your success.

Have Fun, Help Others, and Make a Lot of Money - No Worms Involved
In looking at business options, I have seen many ways that claim to be the path to earning a lot of money. However, I stumbled across a business in yesterday's newspaper that I found quite intriguing. It's the business of marketing earthworms. Now, if you think it's difficult to sell cookware, candles, vitamins or cosmetics, think about how you'd go about selling live, slippery, worms. There's no doubt this is a niche market. It turns out that the owner of this business actually started out as a home business entrepreneur who answered an ad for farming earthworms. The startup cost was $500 for a kit but the worms were small and the company never purchased the subsequent worm offspring as promised.
Not to be defeated, however, this worm farmer looked for other ways to make his business profitable. As a result, he no longer breeds and raises his own worms, but has become a broker for a large European worm farmer. It seems that worms grow bigger and juicier in Europe than they do in the United States. These millions of worms come packed in boxes and the broker weighs or counts the worms out into small cups which are sold to bait shops. How would you like to spend your working hours donning gloves and placing earthworms into cups? There were actually pictures of friends and relatives who assist the business owner in this endeavor.
As I was reading this amazing article, I started thinking about my own home business. What a contrast selling earthworms is to having a conversation with people. Of course I have to do some marketing to attract the people who are looking for my expertise and assistance. Then I simply have a conversation with these people to help us both discover what their goals and needs are. From there, it's simply a matter of using a proven system to further educate and answer questions. At this point, my clients make a decsision as to whether they would like to earn money doing what I do or not.
You are probably wondering what it is that I actually sell. Quite simply it's three different personal development products. There is a broad market for these products - after all, most of us are interested in becoming better human beings. The personal development business generated over 9 billion dollars last year. People are eager to learn better ways to think, live and communicate with others. People are also eager to make a very decent income, think multiple six figures potentially, without spending a lot of time away from their families. My purposes in life have been to help other people achieve health and happiness , to have time for gardening and enjoying my home on Lake Murray, and to have the resources to travel with my friends and family. I also enjoy feeling productive and donating my time and money to causes I am passionate about. Money opens a lot of doors, doesn't it?
With our Liberty League International home based business, I am better able than ever to realize these goals. I may buy a few earthworms and teach my grandson how to fish from our dock. Otherwise, I'll leave that business alone. I don't think many people are making a million dollars from earthworms. But personal development is a different story entirlely. If you'd like to find out exactly what I do everyday, contact me through this blog or give me a call at the number below. Life is too precious to waste it on unpleasant and unproductive pursuits. Let's have fun, help others, and make a lot of money - no worms involved.

Live On Purpose and Make a Difference
Our life and business rocks so much that I can't keep quiet about it any longer. As I sit here on this spring day looking out my window at Lake Murray and the budding trees, I realize that I envisioned this 10 years ago. We owned this property then but were living and working in Florida. If we were lucky, we were able to vacation here 3 times a year, never for more than a week at a time and sometimes only for 3 or 4 days. During one of those visits, I distinctly remember closing my eyes and picturing myself sitting here and working from a computer in my home. I had no idea exactly what kind of work I would be doing, but I knew it would provide a comfortable income and lifestyle. I also knew I would be fulfilling my purpose in life and making a difference to someone.
So here I am living that dream!! I am so blessed to have a husband who enjoys living this same dream lifestyle as I. After all, we have been married 31 years and are not carbon copies of each other. But in the things that matter most, marriage, family, church, and work, we agree totally in fidelity, integrity, giving of our time and resources, having fun, and being grateful to God for everything. Does a life like this just happen? Is it simply the result of luck? Or do we have the power to create any kind of life we desire?
Being a Christian of strong faith and a student of personal development - yes, the two compliment rather than contradict each other - I know without a doubt that our God-given free will, empowered by the Holy Spirit, gives us the ability to bring about anything we truly desire. I am certainly living proof of that. Seeing this happen in one area of my life encourages me to set my sights on even loftier goals. Every one of us was created for a distinct purpose and will live until that purpose is fulfilled. I probably will not know the entire scope of my purpose until my life is over. However, I do know the things in life I feel passionate about, so I know they are related to my purpose.
Working 10 hours a day for a corporation did not inspire me at all. Worse yet, it robbed me of creative energy and laid claim to one of my most precious resources, my TIME. Thank goodness I had envisioned a different lifestyle for myself and recognized the opportunity to achieve that lifestyle when it showed up. For me it was the business opportunity with Liberty League International. Not only could we now have the income to live according to our desires, our personal development products taught us how to think and believe in a new and powerful way. The point here is that even though you may want your life to look differently, you are going to have to take a leap of faith at some point to make that difference happen. One of my purposes on earth is to show others that change and success are possible for them. No one is stuck where they are unless they choose to be stuck.
I feel so passionate about the possibilities for my life and your life too. We all suffer when one of us chooses to "play it safe" rather than follow a dream. My favorite author, Andy Andrews, says that everything we do makes a difference. I want to make a difference with my life and honor my creator by achieving the purpose I was put here for. If you are feeling nudged to make a difference with your life, please take action on it. If you'd like to talk to me about that decision, I stand ready to listen and offer what knowledge and insight I have. This very well could be the opportunity you have been looking for to afford you new freedom. This could be the vehicle for you to live your life on purpose and make a difference for all of us.
To your success,
Sandra Hayes

A Business For Myself - Not By Myself
Anyone who reads such books as The Science of Getting Rich, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, or Think and Grow Rich has learned some basic facts. One obvious fact concerning wealth is that it is not possible to acquire true wealth by trading one's time for money. And trading time for money is what employees do every day. Those who acquire true wealth work for themselves by owning their own business. Most people with vision brainstorm ways to start their own businesses. Are you one of these people? Are you looking for a way to start a business for yourself? How about partnering with some others with vision who already have a proven product and business model in place? Wouldn't it be simpler to go into business for yourself but not by yourself?
Honestly, I didn't see myself as a business owner for most of my life. My vision of myself was a dutiful employee who let someone else worry about the bottom line. Years of living this way proved to me that I was selling my time to someone who didn't value it nearly as much as I do. I had dreams and goals that I was never going to achieve unless I had the courage to take a different approach. This is the reason only 3% of people actually take the step to entrepreneurship. It takes the courage to make a change! It takes courage to take a risk. But this risk is much lower than the risk of coming to the end of life with unfulfilled dreams and goals.
I thank God everyday that Ed and I attracted Liberty League International into our lives. This company, its products, and its business model were simple enough for us to start immediately. And they are lucrative enough to give us the financial resources we desire to meet some big goals. And for someone like me, who was a afraid to truly to go it alone, I found a community of other successful people who have taught me what they know to assist me in this journey. I am secure in being in business for myself, with the rewards and challenges that brings. I am also blessed to be surrounded by others who keep me from being in business totally by myself.
God created us for greatness, not mediocrity. He put a desire for great achievements into our hearts and minds. And then he gave us the freedom to seek ways to accomplish what we hope is possible. Better yet, He gave us each other for companionship and support. I pray that I honor the gift of my life by investing it wisely as a good steward. I only get one chance at today. I am truly grateful for the opportunity I have to assist others in finding a business for themselves but not by themselves.

LLI Is An Amazingly Simple Business
Have you heard of Liberty League International? This is a question we ask when calling people who have responded to our ads. Amazingly enough , most people say, "No." Of course, Ed and I hadn't heard of the company either 2 years ago when he responded to an ad. It's hard to believe we have been LLI associates for 2 years! It has been a totally remarkable and life-altering experience.
We jumped in with both feet, knowing that we had finally found the vehicle to get us out of our jobs and home where we had always dreamed of working. You see, we live in our dream home on Lake Murray in South Carolina. Every room in our home has a view of this beautiful lake. As a nurse, I usually went to work at sunrise and came home after sunset, especially in the winter. What good is a view if you're only home at night?
Secondly, both of our grown daughters had moved to Florida and one had given birth the year before to our only grandchild. But the hospital system I worked for would not allow anyone to take time off without pay. There was no way I could travel to Florida, participate in missions with our church, and take a vacation for myself on the limited time I was begrudginly given.
Add to this the fact that Ed and I are in our early 50's and want to be financially sound as soon as possible. We know without a doubt that we attracted our ideal business at just the right time in our lives. During the past 2 years, my mother has developed dementia. Thank goodness I have the time to spend with her that I never would have had while working as a nurse.
Have I mentioned yet how portable the business is? As I said, we travel to Florida every month or two. So does our business - with a cell phone and a laptop, we are always available to assist our associates as well as to share our business with those who are looking for what we have. Now that we both have smartphones, the laptop is not as necessary as it was!
We're leaving for Florida and then Virginia this week. But that's okay - you can still contact us and be confident that we will call you back within 24 hours. Meanwhile, have a great day. And remember that it is absolutely possible to have your own amazingly simple home business with Liberty League International.

Amazingly Simple Versus Too Good To Be True
When I see how different my life looks now from how it looked a year ago, I get goose bumps! I begin everyday giving thanks for everything I have and all the time freedom I enjoy. My goal is to help as many people as possible achieve the life of their dreams. Let's define "as many people as possible." This is where we will also start to distinguish an amazingly simple home business versus something that sounds too good to be true.
You see it is by assisting others in getting what they want that we actually get what we want. As John Dunne put it so well "No man is an island." We each improve to the extent that we all improve. So my business is so simple and so right on target for just this reason. When you combine a lucrative business with impressive profits from the direct sales of personal development products, it's a perfect scenario. People earn a very respectable living by becoming better and better human beings.
Okay, so why doesn't everyone believe that what we have to offer is really as good as we say it is? You tell me. I believe it and have believed it for the past 23 months. In fact, I believe it more fully today than I did yesterday. It really is all that it's cracked up to be. Yet many people I talk to are afraid to believe that it really is possible to make a multiple six figure income working 20-25 hours a week from home. The people who are afraid to make a paradigm shift and believe are outside the scope of those I can help. In order for me to help someone, they must have the desire to change, the willingness to let go of some old ways of thinking, and a belief that a better life is possible.
My answer to them and to you is this. If you are happy with your life right now and enjoy your job and income enough to continue doing it until you are seventy years old, congratulations and have a good life. However, if you would like to find a way to have more money and more time to spend the money, contact me today. There is absolutely no obligation. I am blessed to be able to offer people a way out of the corporate world and into a world where anything is possible. Our business is truly simple and too good not to be true.
To your success,

Keeping Life And Business Simple
Like any responsible adult in today's society, I juggle my time and priorities everyday. Fortunately, I don't have a J-O-B that demands 40-60 hours of my time and most of my energy every week. As a home-based entrepreneur, I am in charge of when and where I do my income generating activities. The reason for this is that I made a choice to keep my life and business simple. That is not to say that I don't have to make sacrifices and discipline myself to make all of this work. I am simply stating that my decision put me, not someone else, in control of my life.
Right now I am making decisions about 2 events that I want to participate in this coming Saturday. They both have a high priority for me and I've been brasinstorming to determine the best way to achieve both of them. Neither of them are "fun" but they are important and have "eternal" value.
The first event I want to attend this Saturday is a Boys' Epiphany Reunion at our local Department of Juvenile Justice. This is a monthly reunion of Christian adults and juvenile inmates who spent a weekend retreat known as an Epiphany together. The second event of "eternal" value is the funeral of one of my good friend's 24 year-old son. Jonathan valiantly battled cancer for the past 5 years and taught me a lot about living and dying.
No doubt you are also faced with daily decisions about setting priorities on your time. I encourage you to make your decisions wisely because time is a commodity that cannot be hoarded. It can only be invested and shared. With that said, I am pressing ahead into this day, praying that my decisions are wise and support my desire to keep my life and my business simple.
