The Best Start To Your Day

You've more than likely come across what I'm about to suggest before but like any new habit it's not one many of us tend to stick to.

I've lost count of the times I've started this with the intension of seeing it through until it becomes mandatory for me but even now, years later it's still a habit I start and stop.

I'm talking about morning motivation. Whether it be something you read, something you listen to or something visual like a vision board or video, breaking your mind from the normal jumble of thoughts that present themselves to you during your normal waking routine is priceless.

Don't be tempted to say you don't have the time either. How many people have you heard saying that they regret improving their mood? Set your alarm that bit earlier if you need to.

The benefits you'll receive will amaze you. With regular implementation you'll notice all manner of improvements, things like optimism, clearer thinking and decision making, a happier frame of mind and positive steps to achieving your goals.

Give it a go, all you've got to lose is your doubts that it'll work and I don't suppose you value them.

Have an awesome day, make it so.

Getting Started in Direct Selling

Getting Started in Direct Selling - Working From Home
For those breaking into the world of additional incomes working from home, namely internet based sales and marketing, there are quite a few factors that could well be making you hesitant in your progression. On this basis I am going to try to put your fears at ease by pointing out some do's some don't's and some what to look for's. I hope you find this helpful.

Is Direct Selling A Legitimate Industry
When starting out and first mentioning what you are doing to your friends and family, the two most common questions you're likely get asked are "is it a scam or is it a pyramid scheme?" The simple answer to both of these is "NO."

The true fact is, is that the majority of people are looking for something to protect themselves from something they don't fully understand and ideally we are out to help them and not confront them.

Lets Start With Scams
What exactly is a scam? Respond to the question about it being a scam with "What exactly is a scam?" and half the battle is won. Most people will come back at you with a description of trickery and/or deception which would indicate that nobody but a select few will ever make any money from what you are doing. The chances are there are thousands of people who came before you that are already making a living just like you are hoping to do with your chosen opportunity. Grab some testimonials, the names and stories of those most like you, people that have already put their faith in what you are doing and are succeeding. Where does their scam argument take them now?

Pyramid Schemes.  
Probably the most common reservation stopping anybody getting involved is the thought of what you are doing being part of a pyramid scheme. This still amuses me as it is another safety shield for lack of understanding. If you're going to tell them that, it may be a good idea to be careful how you put it. Nobody likes to be told they are insecure.
If you look at the model of Direct Selling you will generally see that the payment structure does indeed work on and look like an upside down funnel (a pyramid) but that's about as far as it goes. Pyramids, or the things they are generally referring to were actually outlawed years ago. Some start-ups may actually still try to implement something like this but they are generally soon governed out of existence. Simple take a look at any industry and there will be a few top dogs and an ever increasing number of people right the way down to the person at the bottom. Going back to the upside down funnel however, in Direct Selling there is far more chance for the little guy climbing all the way to the top.

Direct Selling As An Option
If your entry into the work from home industry has been through the Direct Selling Industry then you're onto as secure a path as any. As sales and marketing of virtually any companies goods will show, online sales are on a steady increase month after month. What makes Direct Selling so different is that the company is relying on the work of the individual in order to advertise and retail their wares.
I'm not indicating that you're in for an easy ride though as part of what you are going to come up against is covered in the content above but you're going to have other issues to deal with and one of the most common to overcome is you. I'll be covering that in a future blog post.
As with many of the methods of generating an income online you are going to be up against an ever increasing number of people trying to do the same thing, this should by no means put you off though. There are more than enough people marketing their opportunity without a real clue in what they are doing. Sadly, many of these simply aren't prepared to listen to advice given to them. This is where you can side step a lot of the hurdles if you like and start off by getting it right first time around.

For those of you eager to get it right but wonder if you could be doing better with the right kind of guidance, feel free to get in touch and we can discuss your choices.

Trying out blogger app by Przemelek

OK, only the second post on this my new blog and I've decided to download and try an android blogger app to see how blogging on the go - goes.

Ordinarily I would have opted for Googles own application but having read the reviews went directly to the second choice where the first few comments were encouraging as opposed to critical. Somewhat surprising I would say that Googles own isn't top of the picks but then I doubt it bothers them the slightest with everything else they have going on.

I'm not going to know the results as to this app posting successfully but so far everything seems to be working perfectly.

As for functionality there's options to ad images, location or posts previously stored on the SD card, yes it has the option to save posts to there too.



Now, if this has posted successfully you should be seeing a screenshot of the app above. Nothing fancy looking and hopefully as good as the reviews suggest it is.

There is also the option to add tags to my posts which I shall be trialing and a publish tab but if you're looking for a save as draft, I'm assuming it's housed as save to SD.

All in all this has been as easy as writing a text message so if you're wanting to add to your free blogging platform to help build your presence, I'm going to start out by giving Przemelek's blogger app top marks. You can get it for free directly from the play store.

I hope you've found this helpful, to you future successes.

What's The Plan Behind My Madness?

Hi All

I've been a blogger for quite a while now posting content on a couple of platforms other than Blogger but due to the kind of help I provide, I've decided to lay them down to rest. Granted there'll be loss of readership from those that regularly interacted with me from those sites but I'm not to worried because just as I've always recommended, we've engaged and connected via social media too.

So What's The Plan Behind My Madness?
I'm always harping on about how the ordinary man or woman can make the changes in their lives without becoming a master at the game. How they can start out with nothing and build it into something to be proud of, even if it's just adding enough to their income to rest easy and sleep better at night. Not every-bodies dream is to be the next top guru is it?

I'm not indicating that people should set their desires at lower levels, but a lot of the time the thought of reaching grand targets can seem so far off - they lack the confidence to even give it a go.

Most people entering the work from home industry do so for the want of money, this obviously results from them having some sort of struggles in that area in the first place.

It's great having all the thrills of personal domains, hosted blogs, websites, landing pages, auto-responders and everything else but the chances are those that are starting out have neither the money, knowledge or inclination to put all of that sort of thing together.

Through this new blog I'm going to be leading by example on how to start with little to nothing and still achieve financial reward/freedom.

Be sure to comment, follow or connect with me, it'd be great to know your thoughts
