The History of the Federal Reserve

September 5, 2014

Understanding how the Federal Reserve works, is an essential element of understanding how our money is created. The Federal Reserve was established on December 22, 1913, on December 23, 1913, President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act into law.

The Federal Reserve has now been in operation for over a 100 years; we have seen many changes during this time. The Great Depression along with the Market Crash from 1929 - 1933. Difficult times for all had to live this era.  Then President Roosevelt recalled all gold and silver certificates, ending the gold or any other metallic as banking standard.

The Video your about to watch will explain in great detail how the Federal Reserve works in a language we can all understand. Provided by the Corbett Report, one I do recommend you follow.

How Getting To The Point Increases You're Abilities with Communication

September 3, 2014

"Getting to the Point." One major characteristic of every self-made Millionaire and a super successful person is the habit and ability always to get to the point. On the other hand, watch the habits of people who are financially challenged, they major on "Chit Chat." Now there are times when we sit around the campfire, hold hands and sing "Come By Ya" but not in a business setting. Ask any wealthy person what their most precious commodity and you find it is not money, diamonds, silver, stocks or even Gold, its "Time." Rich people highly respect, honor and aggressively "Guard" their time, but the is the exact opposite of what the struggling masses do with their time. The spend it on movies, games, "Chit Chat" Facebook and just hanging out.

If you take the "Chit Chat" system to business, you will find your business faltering and fail. As you become and develop to be a leader who is the only true way to become wealthy, you will find that you need to discern who qualifies to have access to you. Never allow business access to you to those who do not share your dream or vision. People are driving money to you, or they are driving it from you, and your ability to discern the difference will determine your level of success in life and business.

Think of yourself as a "Peanut Machine." I don't release my nuts until the coin is put in!

Any time you talk to anyone who gives you the runaround, avoids direct questions, uses diversions or creates confusion you know you are in the presence of a "Deceiver." Right business is based on "Compatibility," Need," and "Supply" and should go into the marketplace. "Transparent of Intent." Our offer is right at this time or wrong at this stage and either event is a great thing so asking people to accept our offer should be simple, no pressure direct question which is replied with a simple, direct answer yes or no.

Avoid using the practice of "Hinting around the Bush" and refuse others around you to use it on you.

"How to Use Energy to Motivate You're Words"

August 28, 2014

There are words that heal and words that kill, words that are cheap, and words that are deep. What makes one word different from another other than definition and meaning? We have all heard the saying "Talk is Cheap" and the side of the spectrum "Words are deeper than a knife." the factor that makes one word strong, and one word worthless is not the definition of words but the "Energy" we put in those words. You can inject love or hate, sincerity on insincerity, truth or lies, anger or peace, fear or faith, trust or distrust, and hope or despair in words.

And the "Energy" you inject into words determine the impact it has on people, things and even ourselves. You can tell a lot about a person based on the "Energy" of their words. In 2010 when l was on my death bed, very ill having internal bleeding and had to have emergency surgery to save my life where they had to remove one third of my stomach I heard a lot of words from people. It has taken me all these years to recover from the illness and bounce back. During my first year of recovery I looked like death on wheels.

I had many people tell me"you are looking better" but the were just empty words of courtesy with no real "Energy Truth" in them. They were nice hollow words. But I did not personally know her outside of the spa and a customer, every time she came in she would say, "You are really looking fabulous." Those words were such a big part of my healing and recovery. Her words were filled with the energy of "Empathy, Truth and Love" that they penetrated deep into my physical body and brought health and healing to me from a cellular level. Her words actually help heal my very cells.

About a year later, when l started to look normal again. I told her how her words were a big contributing factor in my healing, and she simply smiled at me in her English Accent said. "Darling I was just telling the truth."

Pay attention to the words you speak and do an "Energy Check" to see what kind of energy you are importing in them. Like the book of Proverbs tells us. "Life and Death are in the power of you're words."

"How to Invest in You're Partners and Increase Results"

August 26, 2014

I hope today finds you filled with hope, faith and anticipation for a brighter and better future! No matter where you are today, you can change your conditions the moment you make up your mind to find them. One of the great things I love about the 21st Century is how far we have come along in using internet tools to grow our business. Over the past 30 plus years as a business entrepreneur. I have finally came to the understanding that business growth, income expansion, team building and customer acquisition is based on one thing and one thing only and that one thing is finding people that are ready for your offer and moving quickly away from those who are not.

It use to be that l would exert a tremendous amount of energy in a presentation full of gusto, power, charisma and enthusiasm and by the time I was done I was worn out mentally, emotionally, physically and sometimes spiritually. And after putting forth all the work and energy of the day some would buy into my pitch and others would not. The ones you were ready did and those who were not ready did not. I was as straightforward as that. What I learned after all of these years is that you "Can't tell the right thing to the wrong person or the wrong thing to the right person." 

Today I move lighting fast through people using tools because I know for each the timing is right, or it's wrong, and nothing I can do can change that. Oh sure, I could use high-pressure selling, NLP and a host of manipulation tactics to get someone to say yes but that only leads to disaster and customer drop out soon after they say yes. Save yourself a bunch of time, effort, worry, frustration and money by using tools to grow your business. When I am doing a three way calls with my team with their prospects many times the candidate will say "What is this all about?" My response is "I will tell you all about it; I have a 2-hour version or a 2-minute version, what works best for you on this call?" They always opt in for the 2-minute version and then I send them the video (too).

I do not invest my energy or time in prospects I spend my time and energy in my partners and customers. It's how you grow a million dollar company.

"Do You Depend on Others for You're Success!"

August 25, 2014

Be extremely careful who you depend on. I have seen financial empires and economic fortunes lost and crumbled because people trusted and depended upon people. You're financial future, and business is far too significant and precious to leave in the hands of other people who are not qualified to be depended upon.

I make it mandatory whoever I work with, or partner with me personally Mentor and they go through our Mentorship program. If anyone refuses to learn our Leadership system no matter how good the opportunity looks I walk away period, no negotiation on that principle. Even the people I have personally trained and worked with for over a year sometimes go wrong, fly north and let us down like a led balloon. If the people you train go south at times, why would you want to "Depend" on anyone who does not know your systems, method of operation, mindset, business ethics, principals or long term goals.

Too many times we "Depend" on people who have no clue what we expect, what we want, what we do, how we do it but Say that they do! Depending upon people is a very, very dangerous thing and should never be taken lightly.

For the majority of inhabitants, they have good intentions and mean well, but what comes out of their mouth means "Absolutely Nothing." I am always on a constant mission to train and educate those around me and eliminate those who have proven I cannot depend on them. Depending upon people that will impact your life, "You don't trust anyone?" I trust people, but I am very careful who I depend upon. Trusting someone and depending are two different things. Here are the five top culprits that will cause you to rely on people that end up in disastrous outcomes.

1) They Have Lots of Potential. These are the most dangerous people to depend upon. We fall head over heels for people that have talents, skills, ability, and potential. We find these people, and we entrust our entire future in their hands. I do not look for talent, nor possible but "Character, Teachable, and proven Dependability."

2) They talk Good. They start talking, and when they are done you are amazed and say "they are Smooth" but "Ex-Lax" makes you "Flow Smooth" too, so what is the problem.

3) They were Successful in the Pass. Who cares if they were rich in the past, why are they broke now?

4) They are a Good Person. I am sure they are, being a real person, with a good heart, and even right intentions do not guarantee that they are dependable.

5) I Want to Help Them. If that is the case, sit down and write them a check for up to half of all you have and send them on their way. That will cost you less money, stress and problems than depending on them.

"Depend on" An element that can make or break you, use it with caution.

Improving Your Manners will increase your daily success

August 21, 2014

"Good Manners" are always fashionable, in good taste and in the season.  As we strive to live out our life as a whole person, expressing success and goodness in every aspect of living "Good Manners" is a wonderful attribute to cultivate and practice. we live in a world that is filled with unhappy people that are rude, hostile, angry, and addicted to displaying "Bad Manners." As a successful professional "Bad Manners" on our part are never acceptable

It is very easy to display bad manners without realizing it. O Monday l was at lunch with a fellow business partner "MJ" and we were listening to a conference call on my cell phone. There were two elderly ladies in the next booth that kept looking at me. I thought they were thinking, "Wow what a good looking man that guy is!" My head and ego grew by the moment until they got and gave me a stern "Rebuke" on how rude l was and bad manners l showed by blasting that call on my speaker phone in public while people were eating. Thank God for "Extra Strength" Poly Grip or the Rebuke would have knocked my choppers right out of my head.

She was right, how rude of me to display of "Bad Manners" on my part!

Success is about personal and self-management, self-evaluation and self-improvement. We must always evaluate improve and adjust our behavior and conduct, both personally and professionally. The biggest common denominator of bad habits is "Uncontrolled Language" Derogatory Language is a very unattractive character trait that does not fit a growing, successful leader and wealthy business professional.

Would you want a dentist working on your teeth while every other word were, That Blank so and so is one dumb....." Or how about a proctologist telling you "Bend over while I shovel this thing up your........!" Why, if that would ever happen you would be at your attorneys office filling a complaint.

"Good Manners" goes far beyond our words, but penetrates our actions, thinking and methods of dealing with people. "Bad Manners" is always letting others pay for our meals. "Good Manners" is always picking up the check for your guests. I can always detect the true character, bank account and future success of a person by observing what they do when the check comes.

I always make it the nonnegotiable habit of picking up the check when eating out with friends and business guests. Many times, when I am out with a new person that wants to do business or an associate with me I will take them out to eat. Without them knowing I will hand the waiter my Credit card and tell them to pay the bill and just bring the receipt in the little black book and do not say anything. After we are done eating and the waiter brings what looks like the check and puts it on the table. I will just sit there without making a move to see what the other person does.

I have had them get up to make a phone call, go to the restroom, or keep talking without stopping and move from subject to subject. I have found if someone displays "Bad Manners" from the start, they will display it throughout the entire relationship and its best to part ways then and there with a smile.

What single woman thinks a man would make a good future husband that was cheap and displayed "Bad Manners"? Check your Manners constantly and observe the manners of other. Good and Bad Manners speak volumes! My Millionaire Mentor taught me over 30 years ago, "Don always pick up the check." In those early days in 1980 l would take people out to dinner and silently pray "Dear Jesus, please them order water and a salad." Sometimes they would but most of the time they ordered Shrimp and Steak along with a salad."

Happy Fathers Day, to all the DAD's!!

June 15, 2014

Just like to wish all the dads in this world a happy fathers day. It is a day that was meant for us, a day to enjoy our kids, family and all you have worked so hard to accomplish. Today is suppose to be our day, time for us to shut down the brain, and not think about anything.

Unfortunately, it does not happen that way all the time, we still deal with obstacles, that should have been avoided. Relationships have them moments, just how it is!

We all have happy moments of our favorite fathers day, the day you were made out to feel like a "king." Wow, that actually felt good, and very enjoyable. Some of us are having this type of day, and you have earned it.

Sometimes dads do not get the respect they need, but we are dads we get from them, we forgive and move on. We have the ability to not make things complicated if avoided-able. We have enough stress to deal with, meeting our monthly financial obligations. Not taking anything away from the mothers, many very highly successful women, who never had to rely on this type of obligation or support.

Had to certainly get that one in the opening, for the simple reason, that relationship works best on the power of two. When you have that in your the relationship, it makes good sense, providing you with sound advice on each other.

Most relationships fail for them simple reasons, lack of attention, financial obligations, commitments, kids, and so many other logical or perhaps non-logical reasons. Either way, it just happens, all we can do is watch. How we prepare our minds for this type of mindset, is a totally different topic.

I have always believed in these's words, "Legacy is more important then Currency." When l heard them words being used, l fell in love with that concept. Told me life is a learning curve daily, never forget that! Just how fast and complicated life has become, regardless of who or what you have.

This is supposed to be a special day, and you know it will always be, one for all us dad's, just like mothers day has been and always will be. God, we ask for only one day of the year to be "Special." You know l lost my dad, and so have many of you, but we understand sweet memories will never die. My mom is not in really good condition should have happened but she is still hanging in. Without water, foods, or artificial modifications of keeping her alive, other than her will for the last 7 days.

This article is for all of us who deal with what many of us deal with, not only on a special day but daily. Life is what you make it be, not a really hard concept to understand. Some of us handle obstacles, stress, emotions, feelings better than many. All you need is the correct mindset, that is what keeps my focus, like many of you also.

Hey if we stay away from a negative mindset, we will truly have what our minds thinks, we will achieve it. Steps that will happen, for one reason; we wanted them to appear! The word "think," is the best investment you will ever invest in. When you make your decisions, you have no one else to point figures at.


                                                          
This is how I remember my dad.
