What has Fear have to do with our Success?

February 18, 2016

What is fear first of all? Fear is an obstacle that can hold you back from whatever it is you set out to accomplish in life.  Is fear an emotional state of your mind or is it something else.  Most of us create this illusion that we do not have what it takes to move on with our lives. But actually, fear is a motivator; that we did not even know until we encounter that fear.

We when meeting concerns our whole body and mind changes drastically to challenge that obstacle we have just met regardless of what we are up against.  Think of the times you have encountered fear and how you put up your guards to protect yourself from that fear or you ran away from it, but you did react to in a different manner.  Fear can hold us back, for the simple reason, it takes full control over our emotions and mind.

Fear often interferes with our ability to live more fulfilling lives. Fear is the critical voice in our head saying: "You'll never succeed, so why to try?” Fear makes us listen to those voices and give up before we've even started.  So how do we handle our fears and overcome them, so they do not hold us back from success? Don't beat yourself up over mistakes you've made in the past and being fearful of starting new relationships, jobs, etc. That gets you nowhere. Call a mistake an "opportunity for learning" and seek the learning in every "mistake".

When we let fear rule our lives, we miss out on opportunities and leads us to dismiss people and situations that could help us reach our goals. Fear comes in different guises and various forms - procrastination for example.  Learning how to deal with fear is your first step to overcoming fear.

Here are a few key points that will help you deal with your fears learning and be able to handle is the first step in overcoming some of your fears.

-Get to know your fears
-Get to know the source of your fears
-Step into the things feared
-Make the negative flow stop
-Enlighten all
-Financial obligations
-Providing for our loved ones

-This list can grow beyond our belief, with all kinds of fears we face.

Logically, to overcome your fears, you have to be aware of their existence first.  Once you learn what concerns you have and why they have an effect on your performance, you will be able to overcome them, one at a time.

Make the most of each day

How to Increase More Visitors to Your WebSite For Free

February 17, 2016

Working away on how to improve my overall performance with my blog, so far I am impressed with some of the numbers. I was currently ranking according to Alexa's just a little over 14.5 million on the worldwide web on February 9th. Seven days later this blog is ranking at just over 2.4 million worldwide. Under 30k in Canada.

I have also done over 394K Tweets with Twitter sick, so I have an idea that works. Not about how many follow you, just how many cooperate with you.

Why am I sharing this information, not selling you anything, if I can do this for "FREE" so can you? Advertising is a liability you need to understand why many factors have the ability to provided us with an (ROI).  Is the cream of the crop The Bounce Ratio you will need to pay close attention. It illustrates us with the numbers that matter the most. How long did our visitors spend on "MY" blog, "WEBSITE"? Think about this piece of information.

SEO is all about becoming the best detective you can become your the one being haunted; you're not the hunter at all. The prospects come to us. The most logical reason is rather a complicated one if you do not understand what the bounce ratio is. Once you grasp IT, but YOU WILL NEED TO master this solution, there will be an endless downpour of visitors to your content.

The key you're providing your loyal readers information that will also provide THEM with a benefit at an affordable rate,  with his/her time and effort. Then "YOU" can boost it, get likes, and perhaps do anything he/her wants to, go after any market that provides you with an (ROI). It's marketing at a level that discipline plays an enormous factor in your overall results.

Why would you order another ONLINE course, that has all the features, benefits, along with the best follow up? Honestly now! Have I not gone down that boulevard before, my results did not change. Except my pocket book got shorter, not a good outcome at all. Is it? 

So how do you do this, the same way I am doing it, increasing my visitors from wherever in the world I want to target a particular group of potential prospects for the industry I make a living from. Your "Branding" yourself with the highest possible results you can master. Once you understand how the bounce ratio can provide you with outstanding results

It all takes time; I am going to update this page with links for you to use and master each step for you to outperform your competition with a frightening rate. Look do not invest with anyone else but only with your abilities, we all have them, all we need to do is learn how to use them. 

Let's make this happen one step at a time, this way you will never miss a step, and you can review it, revise it until it provides you with a SERP. Indexing your pages, is vital do it daily, l will show you how to do this. Again one step at a time. Google changes many Algorithms without much warning. What does this mean to what you have created and perhaps have shared it?

It gets lost in Cyber Space, simple as that, why we need to crawl our articles, understand how to read the numbers, correcting your errors, pages warnings. Adding a sitemap to your site so that it can have many links, pages indexed. Think of this?

Is this what you pay for when I can teach you this information for the cost of your level of commitment, other words free. So you will need to subscribe to this blog, so you never miss a step, along with what is new that we should add to our daily activities.

If you want a ton of real people clicking on your site, this is the Tool you should be using. It takes no time at all; you will see a countless amount of hits on your site within an hour or less. The best part is you can use it as a "Free Member or as an Upgraded Member."

The Reasons You Need to Change How YOU think!

February 15, 2016

They say time waits for "No One," how you use your daily seconds is your business, during your active days. Some use it wisely; most take our time for granted. Meaning they are looking for some magical crystal dust to make the changes we all want for success.

Hardcore facts, it does not work or will it cooperate in this fashion, not at all. The dedication will always separate winners who are the ones that devote themselves to this disciplined approach. Not an easy method to master at all takes a correct mindset that focused on his or her abilities. Think about it.  The not new material your hearing for the first time. The secret to becoming who you want to be.

We all have spent countless amounts of dollars, time, effort without attaining the correct mindset as we train our thoughts to become who we think we want to become. It is called an image during our attentive moments, we believe it, we want what we see, but we never achieve it. Why is that?

We are in an industry of some sort, either with Network Marketing, using an eCommerce type of company or an MLM company that promise you real success for the first time, prosperity as well as fame for some. So what do most do in this complex situation? We jump onto this new company that is about to launch, you can become a founder, etc. and you get the point. We all been there!

What would happen, if we believed in the company we committed to. Had we focused and became part of the 3 percent who accomplished the feasible. Reason they made it? You one day will know that answer; it's written in this article. 

Very few make it in this industry, I am not exactly sure what the percentage is, but I think I am very close at, 3 percent of the members who decide to make this their lively hood, within this industry make it. That means 97 percent of the members who decided to take this itinerary, will drastically fail. Rather disquieting, when you take into consideration, the time you have invested bearing this project. Forget the money, that was the easy part.

The Marjory of us will always become "Followers instead of Leaders!" Interesting stat when you evaluate your real performance, we do not pay enough attention to our consequences. So we create illusions on why it didn't complement our success along with our efforts.

It's a special weekend in Toronto, paying tribute to an icon as he was referred too. Toronto displayed creatively at a level, that was recognized, appreciated "World Wide." Hosting the NBA All-Star Game they created their story, the first time the game played outside of the USA. Think of the pressure, but Toronto displayed the correct mindset. The Toronto Team did their homework to showcase this All-Star game to the worldwide audience.



We also have this ability, study what we need to accomplish that will provide us with the attention we desire. It is understanding our needs, wants, desire, and what is the correct route to take, without getting lost. The above event was not an accident, it was thought out, and then it took the breakdown on how to display this event. The results are clearly understood when you see it in your inner mind, how it will be performed.

The key to achieving the most rewarding results for the time you have awareness for; that will have an (ROI) of financial, personal success, is how you view it in your mind. Sounds straightforward, so why do we encounter obstacles? Dealing with human emotions, is very unpredictable.

What would happen if you had this type of discipline with your mindset? Do you think you would achieve results, success, or perhaps happiness? I sincerely feel they are feasibly achievable.

Success is not luck at all, it is laser sharp with your mindset, never deviating from it. Regardless of what you do, you're the only person in the whole wide world that has to be happy with his or her results. Who cares what you do, as long as your satisfied with who you are?

Always "Think" with a clear mind
Success has many different meanings, what I like the most is a dislike for each other, likewise. No different from the vehicle you buy, I would not buy it, but some would. See dis-pet what we enjoy,  many will have a zero craving for this type of commotion. Solution to this debate is rather undemanding. I could give you the answer, but for most, unfortunately, it will not provide you with a benefit towards success or just being happy.


You will need to understand what it is that you're looking for; that will supply you with endless odds of happiness, at all levels of self-actualization! 





Some One Had a lot of time? How do you think he did it
He Saw it in his mind.

Tips and Concepts to Use When Prospecting With a Cold Market

February 9, 2016

Without prospects, you have no way of increasing your success with any business whether it is marketing with an eCommerce Business, Multi Level Marketing or a Brick and Mortar Business. Prospects are the blood line of achievement with the mentioned industries.

When I first got into sales back in 1983, selling vehicles at a Large Dealership in Agincourt, Ontario where I worked. I asked a question to my Sales Manager, so where do I get my prospects from? He looked at me, and said l will be right back; he slammed the white pages phone book on my desk. Do you have any other questions?

I got the message, but I had a big problem, I had no education on how to prospect.  So I spoke to all my senior sales partners, but they were old school with established repeat clients, so that was a waste of human energy. We had no internet back then, so I decided to dedicate myself to this field by going to the Library and reading all the books that related to the sales industry.

I would go to the library a couple of times a week, and borrow new books that I had an interest. I came across an author who was called The World's Greatest Salesman Joe Girard. Wow, I said to myself, I thought I had died and gone to heaven. I read and study his principles, and started to apply his concepts, tips to my daily activities. Within a couple of weeks of doing what l had studied, I started having results. I had more appointments for the week than most of the senior sales partners at our dealership.

I recall one day my Sales Manager came up to me and asked how I was getting so many appointments when I was only a car cadet, other words a rookie. I looked at him and said I am doing what you told me to do, using the phone book and calling the prospect. What are you talking about to them, so I showed him the script I had wrote and tested, to see where my results were coming from. Yes, I kept records on all of my calls, created a manual file for each prospect, with names and important details, that would help me engage with them and establish credibility.

The number one tip I have learned from all of my years invested in the sales industry is still the same tip I use in 2016, this will never change, if you want results, you have to study your the market, and when applying this concept, you will see results. Learning how to engage with your prospect without coming across as some robot. God give us two ears and one mouth, which one should we use the most?

Let us not forget we as car salesmen do not have an excellent reputation, so this is one of the hardest industries to make a full time living from. The status of a car salesperson has drastically changed with all the new industry standards, but most people still do not trust a car salesman.


"Short Presentation on Prospecting by Joe Girard"


                                             
That was how prospecting was conducted back then, but the approaches used have not changed except, now we use different tools, called Social Media Marketing. Creating a brand, getting Likes to our FaceBook Page, using all types of various Social Media Levels, such as LinkedIn, Twitter, FaceBook just to name a few.  

When we are using Social Media Levels, we still need to get the most important point across, getting our prospect to engage with each other, without pitching him on the first impression, or second for that matter. It's so important, and most rookies will prospect you to the point of you being spam by their opportunity, never understood why anyone would take this unsuccessful approach.

Prospects, using Social Media as your platform by Michelle Grigsby."




He's one the best speaker that illustrates what it will take to become 
the machine of endless possibilities. He spoke the wisest words 
to making the switch. It took place back in 2007. 
"His one of the Best in 2016!"
Why it is in Red, You need to Learn this!
And he's a Jets Fan! 

 
                             
You will need to become a master of the skills you learn, the only way this is going to happen is by you practicing your script on a daily base. Keep track of what is working and what is not working, modify it so it can become a seed of endless prospects for you to work with.

Here are The Reasons on Why I have Not Updated My Blog

February 5, 2016

Life has a way of taking a hold of your time and focusing "YOU" on a different journey. So much has happened since l last wrote a post here, some good some not so good, but how life is.

Been spending a lot of time on home improvements, since my ex-wife finally moved out. We left on good terms, so that is a positive thing. Started with my kitchen, next thing l know l am painting the ceilings, walls, replacing the floors along with all the light fixtures, sink, faucet, you're getting the picture.

 Now the problem is the rest of the house needs my attention, soon to the bathroom same thing, living and dining room, hallways, removed carpet replaced with hardwood, that is a job all on its own. The proper tools is a requirement, why to try to do something if it is not your best work. Fortunately, l had most of the tools to do the job with a professional finish, which I am happy.



How the Upstairs looked like, we had to move everything to get
the below results, it was fun we ate well.
Got a lot done, bonding time, the rare moment also got help!
Main Hallway Under Construction


Finished Product Living Room
Now that first floor is all completed, it's on to the second floor, but before we get there, I need to change the stairs from Oak to Mahogany finish. Wow have you ever sanded banisters on stairs, no fun at all.  I Paid my son to do the dirty job, and then l applied the applications to make them look entirely different.


How the Stairs Use to Look Like

How The Stairs Now Look Like
The madness has not come to an end as of yet, still have the second floor to finish off along with hallways, painting, drywall and all the prep time it takes for you to be ready to paint and lay down the new floor. Since my son works from home he wants me to build him a Music Studio, yes a studio so l did. What his into master and engineering music, along with performing, writing killer lyrics, with the correct beats to enhance it to another level of perfection, as well as producing, and god knows what else. Here is a kind of cool interview on Erik. 

Under Construction


How it will Look When It is All done
 So now l need to get back to the laundry room, replace the waste pump, and then the sump pump, might as well do it all correct, replace all light fixtures. Yes, l also replace furnace and the air conditioning since l got my money worth for both items. When l said l was updating my house was not taking any short cuts. Had to replace all the pumps since they were pretty old, and could go at any time.


By the way, l am not looking for a part time paying job doing what l enjoy making home improvements. Looking towards having this project finally complete within the next three months. How it is when you do it part time.

You're Legacy is more Important then You're Currency

October 3, 2014


I have used this statement like many of my close partners; it has a value at a level most will never truly appreciate or fully understand the real meaning of the above words.

Legacy will be only really quality your family, friends, business associates as well for some; their partners at whatever level they trusted each other. Sad, in a sense, this is how you will be remembered once you are gone from the earth. You will be judged, compared, and God only knows what other words will describe what you have achieved in your life.

Hardcore facts, we will never have to hear about it, since we will be gone!

We are all humans, and we have emotions, egos, and obstacles we deal with daily like paying bills, It is always one that comes in at the wrong time, most say, "are you kidding me!" Reality has its rewards for a few of us and many options for others, but why do people pick the wrong ones.

Is it fair to say People Fail and well-calculated Systems will never fail when used correctly? The majority of the ones we encounter spend way too much time on why a system will fail, rather than why it will work! Why only 3 percent can understand why they generate what they generate financially.

Paying for our children's education should be a given, would you not agree? We will all encounter this Financial Burden, sooner or later! We decided at some time to bring him or her to become part of our life. Now they want to continue their education, but you forgot to plan for this step of raising children, oh you have done an excellent job so far, just ignored it had a price.

We all deal with this type of obstacle, part of reality, most forget this process, but you need to understand who decided to make him or her part of the family tree? So why did we forget to plan that step, pure reason, we were not focused! We all have faults, not much more to say since we all been there once or twice!

It is so important to have the correct mindset, you will eliminate many mistakes, towards your journey.

It never matters what you are doing. What is important is your passion for your dreams. We all have heard what dreams, visualization, "How it Will" change your life, but not for everyone. Reasons, it takes dedication, self-improvement, and adjustments with your mindset, this is not easy stuff. But in another form of reality, it is quickly done.

Your passion is the key to success, when you open a door, you "do need a key" if it is locked, so what you need to do is unlock your subconscious mind. It's very achievable, takes time, but we all use time differently. The leadership we provide has a way of making you think, perhaps for the first time outside your comfort zone.

We all have done our homework, the most important language you will ever "have" to learn is an international language, the power of the numbers. Somehow numbers can paint a very accurate road map; most miss this, why they jump from system to system. They never spend enough dedication to learning the system. But it's never our fault.

A long time ago, I came across this man; he had a passion, a message to all who listen to him. Yes, more than likely had a mission, one he has accomplished. Yes, he has changed my thinking, open my mind to endless opportunities.

How you play these options will impact your whys in life, we all have them! 

I watched this countless times, but I learn something new each time, probably why I listened to this man, he made sense to me. He could make me want to become successful; I hope you will enjoy him as much as l have.

He is from the New York City area. He's an Icon in this industry has that ability, started at the bottom, and worked his way and vision. Now let's allow Gary to tell his story.

How to Gain Respect To Improve You're Communications Abilities

September 19, 2014

What is the bonding cement of all successful relationships be they personal, business or professional? "Respect" Once respect is gone the relationship is dead, it's like trying to hold a body without a skeletal framework. No amount of denial, fake laughter or words of "forgiveness" will heal or mend the wound. Unfortunately once respect is lost it's almost impossible to regain. Many people think they lose respect for someone because they get angry or upset with them, but anger does not mean the loss of respect. A relationship can bounce back from anger, disagreements, and even arguments, but if you detour into a loss of respect, it is usually over.

The best way I have found to deal with relationships that have gone into disrespect is simply to forgive and end them. To try and "Forgive" and continue with the relationship only causes the disrespect to continue and cause "emotional infection." Because we are human, we are going to do things that will cause people to lose respect for us, and people will do things that will cause us to lose respect for them. That is simply a part of life.

You never want to lose respect for anyone. However when it does occur in business you can live, survive and continue to thrive. But never allow yourself to lose respect for your spouse or family. Let love reign supreme so that no matter what occurs you never lose respect in that arena of your life.

If you have lost respect for something or someone forget it, bury it and move on to healing and restoration. Never underestimate the power of "Respect." It will build or destroy fortunes. Here is an interesting thing, many times losing respect for someone is due to our personal hang-ups and someone losing respect for us was the by-product of their problems.

The answer I have found is to do your very best in everything you do and that way no matter how the chips fall you can walk away with your head held high. If you do that, you can live and operate in peace when the element of "Respect" fly out the window.

If you Respect your financial future do yourself a favor and turn some of your paper money each week into good Gold Money. Nothing feels better than saving and having that Gold stuff in your bank. When you look at your Gold you will know that you own that money, the rest of the money you earned is gone to the creditors, stores, merchants and a host of other things that you gave your money too.
