Empowering Your Life with Selenium! Cancer Fighting
Selenium- Cancer Fighting Mineral
This sulfur-like mineral (pronounced suh-LEE-nee-um) is an antioxidant that apparently helps to prevent cancer and hypertension. (In areas of the United States and Canada where selenium is scarce in the soil, cancer and stroke rates are higher.) Selenium also helps to regulate the action of thyroid hormones.
Good sources of selenium include whole-grain cereals, organ meats, chicken, egg yolks, seafood, milk, and garlic. (Selenium is often added to antioxidant vitamin supplements, too.) In places where the soil is rich in selenium, many plants contain higher than average amounts of the mineral.
Here's another important nutrient - Selenium. Researchers at the University of Arizona have done clinical trials that show those who had more selenium in their blood had lower incidence of colorectal tumors. Selenium has also been found to be effective in keeping the prostrate health.
Selenium is one of the best antioxidants and should be included in your daily supplements. The recommended daily dose for, Women is 50-55 mcg Men is 65-70 mcg.
Why selenium is good for you ?
Selenium is another important mineral for the health of the thyroid gland - it helps it to work properly and reduces goitre. It is helpful in fighting infections since it stimulates increased antibody response to infections and promotes more energy in the body. Selenium is a potent antioxidant.

One of the main activities of selenium is its anti-aging properties and its ability to help rid the body of free radicals, as well as toxic minerals such as mercury, lead and cadmium.
Selenium helps with alleviating menopausal symptoms in women and it also assists men in producing healthy sperm. Tissue elasticity and pancreatic function is also dependent on this mineral.
Groups at risk of selenium deficiency
· Men - men need more selenium than women as it is lost in the seminal fluid
· Chronically ill patients - muscular weakness, muscle wasting, and cardiomyopathy (inflammation and damage to the heart muscle) have been noted in these patients.
· People with large sections of their small intestine removed - these people have impaired absorption of selenium and may need supplementation
· People with severe gastrointestinal problems, such as Crohn's disease - these people have impaired absorption of selenium and may need supplementation
People on specialized medical diets to treat metabolic disorders - people on these diets (ie one for as phenylketonuria - PKU), are often low in selenium due to the restrictions of their diet and may need supplementation People in these groups at risk of deficiency should talk to a medical professional about selenium supplements BEFORE taking them.
Minerals are so important to our health. The body utilizes over 80 minerals for maximum function. Since our soils are so depleted, even if we eat the healthiest foods, we are not getting all the minerals we need. If we don't supplement with good quality colloidal minerals, we can actually be suffering from "mineral malnutrition". Most "cheap" supplements contain only a few minerals (less than 20) and are usually in the metallic or non-soluble forms, which the body can't use.
· Did you know that "selenium": Is an effective antioxidant?
· Neutralizes certain poisonous substances?
· Is used in the treatment of various skin diseases?
· May help deter cancer?
Selenium is essential to mammals and higher plants in small amounts. It is said to stimulate the metabolism, and is an antioxidant, protecting cells and tissues from damage wrought by free radicals. Because its antioxidant effects complement those of Vitamin E, the two taken together, help reinforce each other. These two compounds together are extremely important in preventing free radical damage to cell membranes. Selenium also supports immune function and neutralizes certain poisonous substances such as cadmium, mercury, and arsenic that may be ingested or inhaled. Although it's full therapeutic value is unknown, adequate selenium levels may help combat arthritis, deter heart disease and prevent cancer. Or to look at it another way, low levels selenium may put people at higher risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, inflammatory diseases and premature aging.
Sodium selenate is an insecticide used to combat insects that attack cultivated plants, particularly chrysanthemums and carnations; the insecticide is scattered around the roots and is carried by the sap throughout the plant. Selenium sulfide is used in the treatment of dandruff, acne, eczema, seborrheic dermatitis, and other skin diseases.
Whole grains, asparagus, garlic, eggs, mushrooms, lean meat and seafood are good sources of selenium.
Don't wait for yet another age spot to appear on your hands, face or neck as the summer sun wanes into autumn this year. Research indicates that you can help to protect your skin from these unsightly brown spots - the result of a life time's accumulation of sun damage - by taking supplements such as selenium and vitamins A and E.

Intake of selenium in the UK has halved in the last 50 years and incidence of skin cancer has risen. Research by Dr Roddie McKenzie at the University of Edinburgh suggests that the most protective effects of taking selenium occur in people short of this vital trace element, which is most of us!
His work has shown that protection is greatest if a selenium antioxidant is taken before exposure to UV irradiation. This reduces damage to skin cell membranes following exposure to ultraviolet light. In laboratory protected cells incubated with selenium-containing proteins only 13% died after exposure to ultraviolet [UVB] compared with 79% of those without selenium protection.
Selenium also seems to protect cells from DNA damage so that sun damage is less likely to trigger the development of skin cancer.

What are good food sources of selenium?
Brazil nuts, offal, cereal grains and fish. As selenium is distributed unevenly in the soil the amount of selenium found in food depends in which area it was grown or reared. It would appear that Norfolk is an area in the UK with good supplies of selenium in the soil, but generally soil levels tend to be low.

Baby Oil NO! Use Wild Crafted Shea Butter
Walk over to the bathroom and pitch it right now. What? Your baby oil and petroleum jelly. We have something that is Earth's best moisturizer.
Unrefined "Wild Crafted" Shea Butter contains natural tocopherols (vitamin E), cinnamic esters and unsaponifiable fats. It offers unparalleled moisturizing properties, as well as natural UV protection and protection against sun allergies.
Shea Butter has a long history of successful application in alleviating and dramatically improving numerous conditions of the skin, including itching, dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, soreness, wounds, burns, scarring and stretch marks.
French dermatologists used shea butter on 35 people from different age, sex and racial backgrounds for a period of ten days to 5 months. These subjects had all types of skin disorders ranging from dry and wrinkled skin to serious burns and rashes. There was substantial healing in all of the cases, and in some cases the healing was almost miraculous. These clinical trials have all been well documented by the French Ministry of Health.
Wild crafted Shea butter has been used for centuries for its unsurpassed ability to protect and regenerate the skin. It comes from the nut of the Karite (ka-ree-tay) tree, which grows throughout West Africa. Karite can grow up to 20 meters high, and its trunk can reach up to 1 meter in diameter. It produces its first fruit when it is about 25 years old, and reaches full production at the age of 40-50, and can live up to 300 years. The fruits of the Karite tree resemble large plums, approximately 3-6 cm. The Karite nut is edible and contains 1-3 seeds surrounded by a thin brittle hull. The creamy substance, known as shea butter, is produced from these seeds.
What are the Traditional Uses ?The name Karite means the Tree of Life, due to the multitude of important uses that shea butter provides. In Africa, it is used in daily cooking, and also taken therapeutically for colds and flus In the Yoruba tradition, shea butter is the ceremonial food for the orishas: Obatala, Olokun, and Orumila. Shea butter is used on newborns and infants daily to protect their sensitive skin from irritants. It is also used extensively by the elderly to treat afflictions of the joints and to maintain the suppleness of their skin. Many people use it regularly on their feet to heal cracks made by the dry Sahara dust.The fruits of the Karite tree are traditionally harvested by village women.
The process of making shea butter starts with the separation of the kernels from the hulls by pounding them. They are then kept at a low simmer by adding small amounts of water and continuous stirring. The karite is pored into calabashes, stirred, and the impurities skimmed off. This process may be repeated several times until the karite is a creamy white color.
What are the Benefits?The therapeutic properties of wild crafter Shea butter are numerous. Extremely high in Vitamins A, E and F, shea butter provides skin with all the essential elements it needs for good balance, elasticity and tone. Recently advocated as a cosmetic ingredient, shea butter continues to pique the interest of cosmetic chemists the world over.
Shea butter is used therapeutically for the following skin conditions:1. Dry Skin - Shea butter helps prevent ashy skin, chapping, chafing, rashes, psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, skin cracks, and tough or rough skin (especially feet and elbows).2. Wrinkles - Shea butter helps aging soft skin tissue to firm up. Rejuvenates skin cells and cleans pores. Can be used on all skin types.3. Skin Irritations - Minor skin irritations including: allergies, insect bites, frost bites, sun burns, burns, and small skin wounds all respond positively to shea butter treatment.4. Dry Hair and Scalp - Apply to hair and scalp to add moisture to dry, brittle hair; to prevent weak hair from breaking, fading or thinning out; to prevent dandruff; and revitalize split ends. Shea butter will protect hair from the damaging rays of the sun, hair dryers, perms and dyes. Unlike petroleum based products, it will not clog pores and block hair shafts. Use it as a conditioning sheen to maintain hair's natural shine and improve manageability.
Try it before swimming to protect hair against chlorine and sea salt.5. Arthritis and Rheumatism - Shea butter is deeply penetrating and heating to soothe painful joints and aching muscles.6. Sun protection - Shea butter can be used as a sun screen to prevent the UV rays from penetrating the skin.7. Sensitive Skin - For infants or people with highly sensitive skin, shea butter is a natural alternative. The chemical composition of shea butter is close to vernix, the substance found on newborns at birth.8. Stretch Marks - Shea butter is excellent for the prevention and treatment of stretch marks and other kinds of scar tissue. It is also good for the healing of the sore and cracked nipples of nursing mothers.9. Aging - Shea butter is wonderful for elderly and invalids for use to prevent bed sores and to ensure continued suppleness and moisture of their skin.10. Massage - African Shea butter is the ultimate in skin nourishment has the best "slide" and consistency for massage therapy.
Shea butter and oil have a high concentration of nonsaponifiable fatty acids which promote cellular growth, helping to restore damaged skin. Other components of shea butter and oil include: Keratin, necessary of maintaining elasticity of skin; Triterpenic Alcohols with Cinnamon Esters, which provide protection from UV rays; Allantoin; Resinous Esters, which provide healing and disinfecting properties, Cinnamic Acid, which most directly correlates with clinical effectiveness in healing; high levels of Stearic and Oleic fatty acids, known for their moisturizing qualities, as well as other natural compounds with high therapeutic value.The components of most seed oils can be divided into two important categories.
The first is called the saponifiabe fraction which contain most of the moisturizing properties. The second category is called the nonsaponifiable fraction, which contain most of the healing properties. What sets shea butter and oil apart from other seed and nut oils and butters is its exceptionally large nonsaponifiable fraction; containing important nutrients, vitamins and other valuable phytonutrients required for healing.
While having an excellent moisturizing fraction, in most other seed oils and butters the healing fraction is very small, often 1% or less. Shea butter, depending on the source and processing methods, has a nonsaponifiable fraction of 5% up to as much as 17%. Because shea butter has such a high percentage of nonsaponifiables, in addition to its moisturizing qualities, regular use of this natural cream can effectively treat many of the skin problems listed above. It is out of these unique healing properties that the Karite tree came to be known as the Tree of Life.
Moisturising & Healing Benefits of Unrefined Shea ButterUnrefined shea butter contains an abundance of healing ingredients, including vitamins, minerals, proteins and a unique fatty acid profile, and is a superior active moisturiser. Unlike petroleum based moisturisers, shea butter actually restores the skin's natural elasticity. Shea butter enables your skin to absorb moisture from the air, and as a result, it becomes softer and stays moisturised for longer.
In addition, shea butter has natural sunscreen properties and anti-inflammatory agents. Because of its amazing properties, shea butter is an excellent ingredient for soaps, lotions and creams. Perhaps it is most effective when applied to the skin in its pure state. Regular users of pure, unrefined shea butter notice softer, smoother, healthier skin. Shea butter has also been shown to help with skin conditions and ailments such as extreme dryness, psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis, skin allergies, fungal infections, blemishes, wrinkles, stretch marks, scars, scrapes, and more.

Debbi's Herbal Tips: Sage Tea Recipe
Make your Own Herbal Sage Tea Good for the cold and flu season!
My mom grows sage in her backyard. So I have my own free sage supply. It makes great dressing as well.
It has been said American people would do well if they would use sage instead of tea and coffee. The Chinese make fun of the American people because they buy the expensive tea for their drink and pay a big price for it, while the Chinese buy sage from America for a small price and drink that for their tea, which is a most wonderful remedy.
The Chinese know that the sage tea will keep them well, while the tea that we buy from the Chinese makes us sick, is a cause of great nervousness and one of the causes of insanity. Sage tea is very soothing to the nerves, good for stomach troubles, gas, makes an excellent gargle for the throat, will expel worms, stop bleeding of wounds, good for liver and kidney troubles, a good wash for wounds, good hair tonic, fever reducer, and good for circulation.
This tea should not be boiled, just steeped. Information came from Back To Eden by Jethro Kloss. GREAT READ! THIS IS ON MY BOOK CLUB LIST.
Sage Tea Ingredients
1 tablespoon fresh sage leaf or 1 teaspoon dried sage
1 cup water
1 wedge lemon (optional)
honey, to sweeten (optional)
Sage Tea Directions
1. Bring water to a boil. Remove from heat and put sage in the water. Let steep for about 3-5 minutes.
2. Strain, pour in cup, add lemon and honey, if desired, and drink. You may drink this hot or cold. Enjoy!
Used carefully and properly over time, it has many wonderful benefits, unimaginable to most non-Native people in the Far West. Over-used, or used improperly (if boiled for example), it is poisonous and causes toxic build-up in the liver that can lead to serious damage and painful, frightening symptoms such as muscular spasms that if ignored can lead to death.
Properly used, sage heals the problems that it causes if used without proper understanding of this herb. Anyway, this recipe is a good one, DO NOT recommend that you steep it for longer, as after five minutes the toxic chemicals in ANY HERB always begin to steep out. That is why black or green tea, coffee (and anything else really) all have nasty effects when over-steeped.
Living Your Best Life with Herbs: Sage
I ran across my mother's herbal book and thought I have found a new purpose on earth! I am on my journey to become an herbalist! I am not there yet, but on my way.
Look at the benefits of Sage: Sage (Salvia officinalis [Latin]), also known as garden meadow, has a long tradition of culinary and medicinal use. Sage was once used to help preserve meat and over the past 2,000 years or so has been recommended by herbalists to treat just about every known condition, from snakebite to mental illness. In fact, in medieval times the French called the herb toute bonne, which means, "all is well". Modern research has shown that sage, while not a panacea, can help reduce excessive perspiration, digestive problems, sore throats, premenstrual cramps, and high blood sugar.
Sage is also an active ingredient in some natural mouthwashes because its tannins are thought to help kill the bacteria that cause gingivitis. Sage has traditionally been used to treat canker sores, bleeding gums, sore throat, tonsillitis, and laryngitis. Recent laboratory studies support the use of sage to guard against infection-it has demonstrated an ability to fight against several infection-causing bacteria. Some herbalists and, in Germany physicians, recommend gargling hot sage to soothe pain from sore throat and tonsillitis.
Sage has a long history of use as a treatment for gastrointestinal disorders. It has been shown to help relax muscle spasms in the digestive tract, and is approved by Commission E for treatment of indigestion. One German study has found that drinking a sage infusion reduced blood sugar levels in people with diabetes, but only when they took the infusion on an empty stomach.
Sage is available commercially in liquid leaf extract form; the usual dose is 1 teaspoon three times per day. It's easy to grow and dry your own sage. Better yet, this herb is a perennial, and will come back year after year, although it should be replaced every three to four years or it becomes woody and unproductive. To harvest your own sage leaves, cut the plant down, leaving 4 inches above the ground, then strip and dry the leaves for future medicinal or culinary use.

Live Longer with a Healthy Colon
Healthy Colons Lead to Longer Life!!!! Extend your life with our 5 Day cleansing program.
The most remarkable church in the World is Westminster Abbey in Great Britain. The connection between this church and colon health is one of the most intriguing stories ever told.
Here's a side you've probably never heard:
The Abbey was built in the second century and is truly one of the most architecturally interesting historical places on the entire planet. Most of the English Kings, nobility and famous clergymen are also buried there. But the truly interesting fact about Westminster Abbey is...
It Contains The Amazing Longevity Secret Of The Oldest Englishman To Ever Live!
The story is astonishing. Thomas Parr was an Englishman that lived for 152 years. He was born in 1483 and joined the English Army around 1500. He didn't marry until he was 80. He was actually accused of having an affair when he was around 100. After the death of his first wife, he married again at 122.
"Old Parr" as they called him, became legendary during the reign of Charles I when folks traveled for over 200 miles to see him. Keep in mind that the average life expectancy in England during this time period was about 23 years!
His gravestone reads:
Thomas Parr - He Lived In Reignes of Ten Princes Aged 152 Years
After Parr's death, King Charles hired famous physician William Harry (he was the first to discover human blood circulation) to perform an autopsy on Parr's body to discover his secret to long life.
The remarkable autopsy report has been preserved to this day and is often required reading in European medical schools. It states (in Latin) that Parr's "internals" were quite normal but that his colon was as clean and as healthy as that of a child.
Does Death Really Begin In The Colon?
It would seem so. It would seem that if you wanted to live a long and healthy life... you must keep your colon clean.
Americans are exposed to dangerous chemicals and pollutants each and every day. They accumulate in our bodies from fast food, preservatives, transfats, and a host of other menacing substances. The sludge created from this toxic brew along with a typical diet consumed by Americans can lead to a variety of dangerous diseases.
They include:
* Constipation * Exhaustion * Parasite infestation* Weight gain* Foul breath* Hemorrhoids* Diverticulitis* Influenza* Colds and Flu* Irritable bowel syndrome
In fact, simple autopsies reveal that most Americans over 45 who die have clogged up waste material in their digestive tracts. Doctors consider our colons to be the sewer system of the human body and for good reason.
Think about it, we all clean the outside of our bodies daily. We brush our teeth, shower, and wash our hands throughout the day. But how many Americans take the time for regular daily "internal" cleansing. Sadly very few.
We have the 5 Day cleansing program Available for you!

The most remarkable church in the World is Westminster Abbey in Great Britain. The connection between this church and colon health is one of the most intriguing stories ever told.
Here's a side you've probably never heard:
The Abbey was built in the second century and is truly one of the most architecturally interesting historical places on the entire planet. Most of the English Kings, nobility and famous clergymen are also buried there. But the truly interesting fact about Westminster Abbey is...

Today, it is a delicious treat everyone can enjoy, boasting many healthful benefits not found in other chocolates.

Do you Think Big? Donald Trumps says....
Read this quote from Donald Trump:
"Thinking small when you can be thinking big is definitely limiting your potential. People are capable of doing great things, but not if they don’t envision great things being done. You don’t have to waste time working your way up to the top when you can start there in your mind. I remember the old saying “It’s lonely at the top.” I don’t agree.
It was probably said by someone who didn’t want any competition. I’m secure enough in my success to welcome competition, so I don’t mind telling you that being at the top is a great feeling. Thinking big can get you there.
We have to learn to walk before we can start sprinting. But that’s no reason not to contemplate sprinting even from day one. Apply that to your thoughts, and understand how your mind reveals the future to you. Do you have big plans or small plans? If all you can see on your agenda are small plans, ask yourself why.
Then begin to expand your horizons. Sometimes we have to recognize our own smallness of mind before we can do anything about it.

Your Six Figure Salary
Your Soul Purpose Six Figure Salary is Waiting on an Action from you!
"KEEPING IT SOULFULLY SIMPLY"
Art of DuplicationThe term "residual income" has been thrown around loosely in the home-based business, network marketing or MLM world. But very few experience it. Very few have the skill sets needed to achieve that kind of success in their business. It's one thing to get really good at prospecting and closing, but it's a whole other ball game when it comes to duplicating your efforts and creating long-term residual income within your organization.
And here is why... There are specific skill sets needed to attain duplication, momentum and long-term stability in your home-based business. So many people who get started in a home based business struggle day in and day out and wonder if they’ll ever realize the “duplication” that they hear so much about.
A major key in creating duplication, momentum and long-term stability in your home-based business is to develop people on your team who will do better than you. Do you want to know how to do that? Take a look at this KISS chart provided by Cheryl Cormier.

Mike Dillard- Magnetic Sponsoring-Old School Thinking
Here is another article from Mike Dillard....you just got to love this guy.
------------------------------------------------------great question.
I think it comes down to this…
Everyone wants to know what the “best way” to build their business is. There’s a natural tendency to move towards methods that are most efficient…
Methods that bring the highest reward for the least amount of effort, and most distributors are on a constant journey to find this holy grail.
Now as much as I’d like to declare to you today, that Magnetic Sponsoring is that best method in the world for building a home business, I cannot…
Why?
Because we’re leaving out one part of the equation… You.
We all come to the table with different strengths, weaknesses, and abilities, and THESE factors determine what methods will work best for you as an individual.
If you’re upline has been in the game for a while, and has had success using old school methods, then as far as they’re concerned, those methods are what work best.
Over time they’ve mastered these techniques, which they can continue to use to great effect.
Now if you’re new to the industry, you’re going to need to figure out which methods work best for YOU.
If the old-school ways don’t appeal to you, that’s fine. They didn’t appeal to me either. It doesn’t mean that my way works better than someone else’s. Both methods will require years of study and practice to master.
When it comes to “confronting” your upline, or ruffling feathers, don’t worry about it.
If you value the relationship and their friendship, just be open and honest about it.
Let them know that you’d prefer to approach your business using methods that are more congruent with your interests and strengths.
If they have a problem with it, then it’s THEIR problem, and if that’s the case, you might want to consider joining a team that uses and supports the methods you wish to pursue.
I’ve been in this industry for over 10 years now, and have pursued this business in every way imaginable… Home/hotel meetings, cold calling business cards, dropping sizzle cards, buy leads, genealogy lists, fliers, classifieds, postcards…
You name it.
I’m a very logical, left-brained person, which means I constantly analyzed what was really going on as I experimented, and learned from all of my upline members.
Over the years, I was able to come to a conclusion about my business, and the way I wanted to build it…Many people have called it visionary. A few have scoffed and mumbled nasty things under their breath.
My method was as follows:
1: The best target market for prospects consists of distributors and leaders who are already in the industry. Instead of cold calling them, a minimum of 20-30 were going to contact me daily. This was accomplished not by pitching an opportunity, but by solving their problems and addressing their needs.
2: I was not going to chase or convince people to join my business. I was going to attract them to me by demonstrating value and leadership through effective marketing.
3: I was not going to sit on the phone all day pitching my opportunity to individuals. Instead I would use effective copywriting to sell to large numbers of people via email, and the web at once.
4: In the course of building a downline, I would expand my business vertically, and own the tools and systems used by the rest of the company.
5: I wasn’t going to focus on simply building a networking opportunity, which may or may not be here in 5 years. My focus was on building “You Inc”, which is my list, and the reputation I have with my list.
My list would become a virtual distribution channel.
This would bring stability, and allow me to build another downline with the click of a mouse, should something ever happen to the primary opportunity.
6: 95% of prospects will say “no” to your products or business. I would find a way to make these people customers in other ways by providing solutions to their biggest problems, which would triple my income.
7: The long-term goal was not to build just a downline. It was to build a business that served the industry at large.
Now I’m not saying that my method which became known as “Magnetic Sponsoring, is “the best”, but I can tell you this…Following this plan has allowed me to accomplish all of my goals, and then some…
I haven’t called a lead in two years, but I’ve built the 2nd largest downline in my company.
By adding value to the industry, I attract 500-700 networkers per day instead of 20-30.
What To Do When Your Upline Says, "OBEY Me Or Else!"
----------------------------------------------------
"Mike, I read your Magnetic Sponsoring book and it is amazing. My question is once I get this off and running how do I deal with an upline that is so entrenched in the old way of thinking? They literally monitor every move we make… Watching our stats and reviewing our volume online, calling and emailing on a daily basis to see who we have prospected recently etc. I know that they will have questions when they see my immediate success (my goal is to blow them all out of the water!)

I know I am going to "ruffle some feathers" because once they learn about MS it will make many of their beliefs and training obsolete. Especially a lot of the information that is passed on by those who teach and promote the "old way" of prospecting throughout all our online and offline training. I have been a maverick and a risk-taker since birth, so I have no problem doing whatever it takes to be successful. But I just want to know if you experienced any negative backlash from your upline or the industry in general when you decided to "jump ship" and start applying MS, and how you handled it? Sincerely

Sometimes it can be easy to forget that everyone starts at the bottom...
So what does this have to do with networking and your business?
Well everyday I get dozens of emails from home business owners who’ve just gotten started in a great opportunity...

They're All At The Bottom, And They're All Asking The Same Thing…
“Mike, I’m a brand new distributors for my company, but I’m on a very limited advertising budget. I need to make money fast.
What should I do first!?”
Well that’s a perfectly reasonable question, and the information I’m about to share with you allowed me to go from waiting tables, to 7-figures in less than 18 months.
But the first thing I want you to know is that you’re really not disadvantaged if you’re building on a budget. I know that might be hard to swallow, but your limited budget only becomes a problem when you try to pursue your business in the same manner as someone who ISN’T on a budget.
Which is exactly what most new business owners do. They throw every last dime they can find into leads, PPC campaigns, postcards, banners, and co-ops, and that’s fine if you’re already making money, but if you’re on a budget, watch out…Spending your limited funds on an advertising campaign is the biggest mistake you can make.
Why?Because if you spend your $500 on leads, PPC, fliers, business cards, or a postcard campaign, you’ll probably get a few prospects, but if you don’t sponsor any of them, you’re back to square one.
There’s no way to leverage the results over and over again in the future.Once you’ve called through your leads, it’s game over! You need more leads!And now you’re forced to spend more money to keep this endless cycle going. It’s like trying to build a business “from pay-check to pay-check”, and only a lucky few will ever come out ahead before they’re financially forced to call it quits.
Commodity investors don't physically buy orange juice and store it at their home. Just like leads, the juice goes bad over time. Instead, they invest in commodities stocks because they can be leveraged over and over again in the future.
So what I’d like to do now is give you an alternative option for one simple reason… It’s the strategy that allowed me to go from waiting tables to 7 figures within 18 months.

So what I’d like to do now is give you an alternative option for one simple reason… It’s the strategy that allowed me to go from waiting tables to 7 figures within 18 months.
So Here’s What You Do…What you want to do is invest your funds into “high leverage” skills and simple activities, which you can use over and over again to quickly and easily produce more leads any time you want… for FREE.
And that’s become very easy to do thanks to some BIG changes which have taken place in the online world recently…If you were going to market online in the past, you had to be a certified search engine expert, or a wizard at pay-per-click with deep pockets full of cash in order to get enough traffic.
It hasn’t been easy, and most new business owners who didn’t grow up with a Play Station in their hands feel intimidated by it. Well thanks to new Web 2.0 sites we have today like MySpace, FaceBook, YouTube, CraigsList, and Ebay, you don’t have to spend big bucks, to tap into this massive flood of FREE traffic… I mean why pay for leads and advertising when you can get them for free!?
And the best part is that you don’t even need to be a computer expert to start using these simple tactics the very same day…

Zane by Soul Purpose - 2009 Release
SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT:
THE ZANE FEATURED ON THIS SITE IS A PRODUCT LINE BY THE
AUTHOR ZANE OF ADDICTED, SKYSCRAPER AND MORE.
This line is still in production and not available for release yet.
Please contact for additional information.
Don't Give Up, The Reward in Near
The reward is closer.
What can you do when there seems to be no hope? You can keep going.
What's the best option when you feel like giving up? The best option is to keep going. How can you respond when circumstances are acting against you? The most effective response is to continue working your way forward no matter what other factors may be present. All that you know is based on past experience, and yet the future does not equal the past.
For right now you can take action to determine that future and to change the way things will be. Though it can be easy to give up, remember this. When you're at the point of giving up, you're also at the point where maximum value can be created.
If you feel like giving up, then you have nothing to lose and everything to gain by continuing to push forward.
Keep going, for the reward is closer with every step you take.
-- Ralph Marston

Robert Kiyosaki - My Favorite Man
From Mike Dillard's Desk:
As I mentioned yesterday, we’re going to be talking about…
The current state of the markets. How Robert is able to get rich “predicting the financial future” with so much accuracy.
Some of you asked for information about the event Robert is holding this month in Phoenix. You can get more details http://www.richdad.com/RichDad/3day_buckie_landing.html.
Head over to www.BetterNetworker.com and watch Robert’s “Predictions” videos that have been posted on the home page.
These videos have already made me a small fortune this year, and they’ll help you get ready for the call tomorrow.

Dani Johnson - Got to Love Her!
Here is recent information I received from Dani Johnson!
There are 3 steps you can do to laugh at the rapidly, declining, Global Financial Crisis all the way to the bank.
��Step 1: The marketplace pays for value and no matter how bad times get, some will actually prosper more during tough economic times and that someone can be you! If you know how to make yourself more valuable, solve problems, create results and help others succeed then you will not be affected by the financial crisis. �
Step 2: Get out of debt, lighten your load, go in the opposite direction of the masses. Can you imagine life without having to worry about making that credit card payment every month, or that payment on the house or the car loan?
�Step 3: Increase your wealth and your influence. You maybe asking the question, "Yeah, but HOW do I do it?" �The answer is by increasing your skills. �
And there are 2 ways to start doing that RIGHT AWAY:
1. Absorb and take advantage the training tools that we already have available for free at www.WorkAtHomeProfitZone.com. Stop fooling around. You don't have time to take this lightly. Get serious. Get plugged in. Start using what Dani is teaching daily.
Build your own income stream and become self-reliant!
Make yourself valuable in the marketplace to where you become the #1 recommended person people want to do business with.
Form instant rapport and trust and get prospects eating out of your hands despite the financial fallout.
Handle objections like 'I don't have the money' and 'not sure I want to risk considering the economic state' effortlessly.
Lead your team to higher levels or production, duplication and profits!
Create true wealth while getting out of debt without increasing your income.
Identify how to motivate your customers, prospects and new sales reps!
Close high quality prospects into your customer base and business
Overcome the biggest, most costly mistakes new (and veteran) business owners make while building their business.
Conquer fear, procrastination and frustration and become a leader people want to follow.
Grow your business FASTER while working less.
Just because the economy is bad doesn't mean YOUR economy has to be bad.
Just because times are tough for everyone else doesn't mean that it has to be that way for YOU.
Dani Johnson will show you how she succeeded through all the good and bad economies over the last 20 years of being in business.

Having a Viable and Successful Soul Purpose Business
Today Business Journal Entry:
"Having a Viable and Successful Network Marketing Soul Purpose Lifestyle Business"
Take a look at your business today and create a fresh start to your business. NOW is the time to take the appropriate action to finally free yourself and get what you want out of the Network Marketing business.
Procrastination kills.
Do it now. Get with it. Get Busy and Get going. Don't wait, hesitate and don't stop. Begin now. Action equals results. Results equal money. Money equals freedom, fun and no stress. More money equals more fun. Anyone who tells you different is either lying or broke. I'm not saying money buys happienss, but I've heard the only one's who say money doesn't buy happiness tend to be BROKE.
If you want money and production out of your business in 2008, 2009 or 2010 act now and follow these guidelines:
1. Develop a 90 Day plan of action. (stay tune for elaborations on these topics)
2. Set Big Goals
3. Use every product and/or service your company markets
4. Become an expert
5. Attend attend attend meetings and conferences -BRING PROSPECTS, AND BRING SOME MORE PROSPECTS, AFTER THAT BRING SOME MORE PROSPECTS - INVITE 1000 AND MAYBE 10 WILL BE IN ATTENDANCE
6.Listen Listen and Listen to your companies calls -INVITE PROSPECTS AND GUESS WHAT INVITE SOME MORE PROSPECTS. INVITE 300 AND MAYBE 10 WILL BE ON THE CALL
7.PROSPECT EVERY DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SAMPLE EVERY DAY!!!!!!!
8. Communicate with your upline, downline REGULARLY!
9. BE THE BEST OR TOP PERFORMER ON THE TEAM AND IN THE COMPANY!
10. PERSONALLY sign up new people EVERY MONTH
11. Develop LEADERS on your team every 1-2 months

Today, October 16, 2008 Humility
Today as I was walking to the Learning Center from the metro link train, I started thinking about what I would write today.
First let me say, Thank God for my legs and feet and allowing me to wake up this morning. I could have easily complained about not having a car today, but you know what, the exercise that I would have normally not received, I received today. My heart is pumping, my oxygen is clear, my legs are toning!
Second, Lifestyle Changes!
I started my day with my antioxidant dosage of Cocogevity. Yes, I am on a lifestyle change. Why would you wait until you get cancer to do something. With my family's history of cancer on both sides of my family. I decided TODAY, to ACT and change my LIFESTYLE.
I want to start my preventative care and self preservation program. I am on a mission to help all my sistas do the same.
That is my journal thougt for this morning!
Have a happy Thursday!
Debbi
