Why “IF”? – Because POSITIVE Change is a CHOICE – Negative Change Happens

With all the turmoil in the economy, making ends meet just keeps getting harder and harder. All the staples of everyday life continue to go up while your paycheck stays stagnant. That is if you have a paycheck – unemployment is still very high. In order for the economy to tread water, 250,000 new jobs need to be added EVERY MONTH and so far this is not happening. In order for YOUR situation to improve or hedge, Plan B, you must abandon the fear and look the future straight in the eyes. On any given day SOMEONE ELSE can make a decision that will negatively impact your life. All JOBS are controlled by budgets – it’s that simple and you’re really just a faceless name to the person in the corner office.

Are You Prepared???

You need to be. We really need to sit back and make a true honest evaluation of our personal situations. Complaining is a negative action. A wise man once told me… “You’re either part of the problem or part of the solution. There is no middle.” Positive change is part of the solution and, the best way to accomplish it is to seize control NOW by doing for YOU. Plan B should be about you. The best way is a small business that has the potential to maximize your efforts. It is my personal opinion that Network Marketing provides this through people helping people create residual income. There are many legitimate direct sales companies where the start up costs are minimal. Not every opportunity is for everyone – people are different and that is a good thing.

Do your own due diligence and research direct sales companies that market products or services that interest you. The most important thing is that a POSITIVE choice is made to take control of your future now – in the present.

Unfortunately for most it is the latter. While thinking they are in control of their own life and destiny, they really are not. The majority of people are under someone else’s  control. Being told what, when and how to do everything during their day. Take an honest look at where you are and decide if that is where you want to be. If not, then start the transformation in to where you want to be.

Change Occurs Daily in the World

If you are still living in the 50′s then, you need to wake up. What is living in the 50′s? Simply put, having a job, going to work & collecting a pension when you retire. That was yesterday’s yesterday. Today, there is zero loyalty from corporations to their troops. The employee is not a liability not so much an asset. Tomorrow the controller can decide to pink slip you without a care in the world. Bye.

All Your Eggs in One Basket – Bad Idea – Diverisify

For most the job keeps all your eggs in one basket and we know what happens when that basket drops. So that is why we all need to have a backup plan and diversification allows us just that. A proper backup plan starts before the basket of eggs drops rather than waiting for it to happen and then sorting out the pieces of broken shell. The best backup plan is to start your own small business.

A small business not only provides some extra cash but also allows for tax deductions that only a business can take advantage of. Much is written on the subject of small business tax deductions and not being a tax expert I should leave that for you to discuss with yours. Do so as it will open your eyes wide when you hear it from an expert.

What To Sell

Well the world is full of options. Myself, I like Affiliate Marketing and Direct Sales. The reason is that they require low funding and are easy to set up. Affiliate Marketing is collecting a commission on a sale by simply referring the buyer to the seller. Or by reselling a product (usually informational) that you have permission to resell. Direct Sales (a.k.a. Network Marketing) is when you sell a product or service for a company and then also teach others to do the same. You then receive a commission on the sales generated by you and those below ( (downline) you for a few levels.

Now, let me say this… Not chain letters or ponzi schemes – they are illegal and not worth the trouble or risk.

If you desire a better lifestyle that can provide more control of your life then I think you should take a close hard look at the benefits of a direct sales business opportunity. There are a lot of people, today, living that dream. They have freedom and total control over their lives. Wouldn’t you like to have that freedom and control also?

Well, you can have it, if you truly desire it. You’ll possibly have to commit to change. Why? Because what you are currently doing isn’t working for you. How much you change and what you do is totally up to you. You will only get out of it what you put in to it.

Part time or full time, the choice is up to you. One of the biggest benefits of direct sales is that unlike other vehicles (job, retail store etc.) the people above you (upline) have a vested interest in your success. And, that is extremely important. Knowing that they want you to succeed will help you reach your goal.

It’s easy to see that in order to create wealth you will need to create a downline. Why? Because the work of many produces greater results. Greater results, in this case, is the creation of passive income. Passive income is the ability to generate income without having to be there to create it. Your chosen money machine vehicle works for you and your downline 24/7/365 days a year. As sales are made while you are on vacation – you earn.

A direct sales company, and there are lots of them, reward their people with the money a typical business would spend on advertising through different media outlets. Word of mouth advertising at it’s best. It’s your mouth so why not get paid for it.

That’s all for today, take care and remember… It’s your life, live it they way you want to.
