It Takes More Than Good Seed To Produce Your Harvest

April 5, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Springtime is a common metaphor for business building,
especially in the home business industry, it seems.

The point is, we ALL have seed in the form of gifts, talents,
creativity, the companies we’re with, where we live…

The list goes on and on.

So why is it that some do better than others?

Is there something else to this planting besides having seed?

The late, great Mr. Jim Rohn seemed to think so, and after
many years in the home business industry, I’m inclined to agree.

Watch this video for the ONE THING that can make all the
difference in the “harvest” your seed will bring.

The Importance of Creating Evergreen Content

March 15, 2012 By 6 Comments

For those of you who may not know, I’ve
been without my PC for a little over a
week now

I’ve been able to access the Internet,
albeit marginally, with a seven year old
laptop that has a whopping 70GB hard
drive and 500MG of RAM

Please hear me…I am NOT complaining!

I’m EXTREMELY GRATEFUL to have this little
machine to work with until I am able to get
my new PC in here.

You might be asking what that has to do with
evergreen content

Just this…

When I get in a bind for whatever reason, I
look at my personal content library.

You know, the things I wrote, the videos on my
YouTube Channel…

Because I’ve never tried to be something
I’m not

Remained rock solid in my personal philosophy

And because I’ve always focused on bringing
VALUE to my readers…

I can pull up, re-post or refer back to an old
piece of content because it’s still RELEVANT

Videos and blog posts about the latest Facebook
change, or the trends in mobile marketing are
important TODAY and should be a part of what
you do, of course.

But be sure to build a library of content that
will be relevant 2, 3, even 10 years from now
and when you’re in a bind, you’ll have something
of value to offer the marketplace.

I’d love to hear your thoughts, so leave a comment,
call me or shoot me an email. And to get the cool
stuff I send to my subscribers, get on my list while

Many companies offer incentive programs designed to motivate
some sort of income producing action.

Whether it’s a vendor offering a gift for a certain sized order
or a network marketing company’s Mercedes Benz program,
there are times when the carrot that’s dangled in front of
you has no effect on your motivation.

True motivation comes from INSIDE, not outside.

This is an excerpt from a live training call, and talks about
the importance of pin-pointing the day that you decided to
change direction…learned from the late, great Jim Rohn

Leave the Raid in the Cupboard…You WANT Bugs in Your Business!

July 25, 2010 By 2 Comments

Happened upon an article by Jim Rohn in my files today and it immediately
started me thinking about Diane Hochman’s “Cockroach Marketing” training.


Let me ask you a question…


Have you ever been working on a project and hit a barrier or block that
stopped your progress?


I have…many times.


You know, you’re humming along, and all of a sudden you reach a point
where you’re at the end of your knowledge base, don’t have access to
a tool or the technology you think you need, the money to buy something, etc.


That’s the time you NEED “bugs” in your business!

~

Mr. Rohn and Mrs. Hochman each have their own unique way of describing
this concept…

~

And the two blended together create a premier marketing
philosophy that, if followed, can lead to success and abundance

~
All that you envision.


I’ve pasted Jim Rohn’s “Ant Philosophy”  at the bottom of this post for you…

The Ant Philosophy

By Jim Rohn

I think everybody should study ants.  They have an amazing four-part philosophy.

Here’s the first part: Ants never quit. That’s a good philosophy.  If they’re headed somewhere and you try to stop them, they’ll look for another way.  They’ll climb over, they’ll climb under, they’ll climb around.  They keep looking for another way.  What a neat philosophy, to never quit looking for a way to get where you’re supposed to go.

Second, ants think winter all summer.  That’s an important perspective.  You can’t be so naïve as to think summer will last forever.  So ants are gathering their winter food in the middle of summer.

The third part of the ant philosophy is that ants think summer all winter.  That is so important.  During the winter, ants remind themselves, “This won’t last long – we’ll soon be out of here.”  And the first warm day, the ants are out.  If it turns cold again, they’ll dive back down, but then they come out the first warm day.  They can’t wait to get out.

And here’s the last part of the ant philosophy. How much will an ant gather during the summer to prepare for winter?  All he possibly can.  What an incredible philosophy, the “all-you-possibly-can” philosophy.

WOW! What a great philosophy to have…the ant philosophy.

Never give up, look ahead, stay positive, & do all you can.

GAP Yourself!

June 11, 2010 By 1 Comment

Many people sit on their hands because they “don’t know what to write/talk about”. They claim that they don’t have any ideas for a blog post or a video.

I would like to challenge those who have allowed themselves to sit and stare as others pass them by to consider this…

You don’t have an IDEA problem…you have a RECORDING problem!

Sorting through some things in my office cabinets, I came across one of my old spiral notebooks… filled with thoughts, notions, concepts and ideas. I write…record my thoughts…A LOT! It seems I’m not alone in this habit, either.

It doesn’t take too much digging to discover that most great people have kept a journal of one sort or another, but that’s not really what this is about. I’m talking about capturing your thoughts. Those fleeting, great ideas that you just KNOW you’re going to remember…until you try to remember them!

John Belushi, for instance, is a great example of what it means to harness our thoughts and concepts. One of the greatest comedians of our time, he recognized the importance of capturing those nuggets before they were gone. When ideas came, he wrote them down…on ANYTHING! He was known for bringing some of his best ideas to a formal meeting scrawled on scraps of paper, matchbooks and paper napkins. The genius in him knew that he could not let an idea get away, or it would be gone forever.

This practice has been advocated…and demonstrated…by such notables as George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Abraham Lincoln and more recently, Jim Rohn, who maintained that your legacy is made up of your library, your photographs, and your JOURNALS.

I’ve heard it said that ideas are like slippery fish…if you don’t catch them, they get away. Understand that when an idea comes, you must capture it somehow. So…

GAP YOURSELF!!

Grab a pen…a pencil…some writing utensil…write it down! Get a journal, a spiral notebook, a legal pad, SOMETHING to capture the thoughts that are being given to YOU. Carry a small, pocket sized notepad or voice recorder and capture those thoughts before they’re gone for good. (It’s been said that writing it down adds thinking to the thought, too)

Ideas are the beginning point of EVERYTHING. Nothing exists that was not first an idea. Success and failure both are born in ideas. No innovation or progress of any kind would have been possible without there first being an IDEA…a notion…a concept.

So capture those thoughts as they come.

One just might be pure GOLD!
