Wow, I can’t believe how much time has passed since my last post. You know I read somewhere that time really is going by faster…and I believe it. Has something to do with the Schumann resonance and the spin of the earth.
Although it seems I haven’t been around much…I actually have been. I have been working diligently with my new business partner Suzen (new business partner…old friend) and we’re very close to opening the doors to our new outsourcing blog.
Actually, we are not only going to cover outsourcing…but it will be a site dedicated to the new entrepreneur that seems to be emerging along with our new global economy.
That coupled with the fact that my 86 year old mom has been in and out of the hospital the past month (more in than out)…not only do I have responsibility to her…but to my 88 year old dad who just has terrible depth perception and requires attention to leave the house anymore.
As much as I love my marketing and my readership…family must always come first…and I hope they do with you also.
Because of many factors….the world economy included…. people are turning to the net in droves to try to carve out a living for themselves and their families. It is now possible for anyone…with determination, perseverance, tenacity and firm faith in themselves…to become the entrepreneur they have dreamed about and possibly for the first time in their lives…be their own boss.
All because the Internet reaches people equally…without prejudice…even the small guy….who now has more opportunity than he has ever had before. Continue reading

Anyone who has read “4 Hour Work Week” by Timothy Ferriss will appreciate why I’ve included a link to a chapter in his book with this post. If you have not already read this mind-expanding eye opener then an introduction by way of this chapter will be enough to have you hankering for more…I am sure of it.
For those not in the know, “4 Hour Work Week” the first book written by Timothy Ferriss, was released in 2007 and is now sold into 35 languages after reaching number one on both the New York Times and Wall Street Journal Best Seller list.
But, that’s not what this post is about…you can read all you want about Tim Ferriss and his accomplishments (and, there are many) on his own site…which I am going to link to in a moment ;)….
Point I want to make here is that there is a movement that possibly originated or at least gained tremendous ground as it exploded out to the consciousness of the masses with the release of Tim’s book…a whole new paradigm of thought about “lifestyle design.”
In the book Tim Ferriss uses the acronym DEAL for the four main chapters. It stands for: Definition, Elimination, Automation, and Liberation. Continue reading
Today I am going to bring up the most important step to achieving success…whether it be online or offline.
That step is your ~ACTION step~
You see, action is what takes the image from your imagination and manifests it in this physical realm. Action is movement… you stir the atoms awake and get them moving and they simply answer the design of the vision that is held forth.
Without the all important action step, your image remains in the realm of the “imagination.” That’s all fine and good if you want to exist in that realm all the time. Good luck paying your bills from there though 😉
For those who want to take those visions and create/bring them into the physical realm…you must perform the action step…the movement step…the creation step.
Take enough action steps towards your vision and eventually you will create in the physical realm what you have dreamed up in the imaginary realm! It’s law folks…plain and simple. Mathematical law.
I wonder how many realize that the word “action” is contained in and is in fact the last word within the word “attraction.” Continue reading
Hive Desk…your new automated outsourcing tool. Anyone who has started outsourcing or wants to begin outsourcing will most likely have the same question come up in their minds…”how can I track my outsourced worker as they are working?” In other words…how do I know my outsourced worker is actually working during the times they submit?
For those that have used oDesk for their outsourced projects, they provide a solution/service that will track your outsourced worker as they are working on their computer. But for those who were not using oDesk there was no way to track workers on how effectively and efficiently they are using their time.
Good news for those interested in this type program….
I recently was invited as a Beta tester for this new program called “Hive Desk.” Here’s how Hive Desk describes their service: Continue reading
