As Jim Rohn said: “Don’t wish it was easier wish you were better. Don’t wish for less problems wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge wish for more wisdom.”

6 More Benefits of More Cash Flow

Good afternoon and welcome again. I have 6 More Benefits of More Cash Flow. Recently, I was working on my personal business outlook and found some sites to expand and re-enforce my belief in everyone owning a home based business. Times are changing and will continue to change. More intelligent people than I am have explained how business is changing. People like Jim Rohn, Robert Kiyosaki, Warren Buffet and Eric Worre have said for years, a major way to get financial freedom is to have a home based business. Beyond the money, there are more benefits to owning a home based business.

  1. Flexibility – My father letters signs and vehicles on the side. He’s done this for years and has a big following and a reputation for getting the sign or vehicle done for his clients. He was able to have a home based business while he worked his 40 hour a week job and used his painting business to make ends meet and save up for the vacations our family would take growing up. The flexibility allowed him to do both his primary and secondary jobs. He made his own hours for the signs and his clients. You can do this also.
  2. Keep the Money – It’s your business and you keep the money you make. It’s not going to your boss or the corporation you work for. I had a friend tell me once; “Yeah, you make the money, but you still have to pay taxes on it”. True, but there will be tax deductions and plus, it’s still YOUR money. You earn it and you keep it and spend it for you and your family.
  3. No Area Restrictions – I have a friend who is a nurse. Like most of you, she has to work in the same place all day, however, her home based business allows her to go out and meet people from all walks of life and work with them anywhere. She’s not trapped by location in her home based business. Most of my co-workers and I have a set schedule to go by and a cubicle to work in, but our home based business lets me go out and work with others outside my office. And remember what my friend Mike Sims says, “Home based doesn’t mean home bound. You have to leave to make it work.”
  4. Scalability – The ability to grow and not be held down. Or you can shrink when you need to. You aren’t held to a set size. If you have office space or a store front, you are locked into a long term lease. You can’t cut back on rent or utilities. With a home based business, you can change easily and adjust to the circumstances. If you get sick and can’t make it to the office, that is wasted rent and upkeep. With a home based business, you can adjust quickly and make it work.
  5. No One to Answer to – This is a double edged sword. No one to tell you what to do. No one to set your schedule and no one looking over your shoulder or breathing down you neck. All great things. You have freedom and You are the BOSS. But you also need discipline. You only have yourself to answer to and for some, this could be a deal breaker, but I have faith in you. Be your own boss. Be what it takes to grow your future.
  6. Tax Benefits – I love this one. I really do. I’ve written entire articles on this one topic. (Really, it’s right here) Did you drive for your business? Mileage deduction. The mileage counts for 55.5 cents a mile according to the IRS.com. Did you use a room for office space? That percentage of your mortgage is your business expense. Did you travel to work with someone? Mileage, food and motel costs are deductible. Did you buy business cards, fliers, training material or anything else exclusively for your business? Deductions. As always, save all questions for your personal accountant. I talk to mine every month.

Top 6 Ways to Learn and Get Motivated or “Who wants to go on a Cruise?”

I’ve been on a reading/learning kick for the past few month and we know we need to get motivated. So here are my Top 6 Ways to Learn and Get Motivated.

  1. Jim Rohn – If you’ve not heard of Jim Rohn, I’m very sorry. I recently found him on the recommendation of a friend and he’s changed my outlook toward money and earning. The legacy Jim Rohn left us for personal development will influence people for many years to come. Please, take time to hear him speak and watch his videos. Many of his work is on YouTube and you need to watch him to understand why he’s at the top of my list. Power of Part Time by Jim Rohn on YouTube.
  2. Les Brown – Wow! When I found Les Brown, I was amazed. He brings a fire and a passion to the masses that will get anyone going, no matter what your business or goal. His is a wonderful story of building himself up from very little. He is Mamie Brown’s Baby Boy and he will explain to you why “IT’S POSSIBLE!!!” and “You Gotta Be Hungry!!!” on YouTube.
  3. Family and Friends – Whatever we are doing, don’t forget our “Why”. Don’t forget the family we sacrifice for and our friends who push us. Even if they try to cut us down at times (and they can do both), remember, to keep our family and friends in our life. I want to go out and make money and have security and grow as an individual, but I never want to lose my family and friends. What is the sense in having money and cars and education and neat toys and trips to exotic locations if I turn my back on the people I want to share my life with. You kids will remember how you included them or how you pushed them away. Your buddies won’t like you if you won’t spend time with them. Remember your family and friends.
  4. Mentors – A mentor is anyone who trains, imparts wisdom on and shares knowledge with a less experienced colleague. This person can be a coach, a preacher, a father or mother. He or she could be a neighbor, but no matter what the original relationship, this person takes an active interest in your future success. They share hidden bits of knowledge or they will lead you on the path to find the hidden knowledge. Remember, it’s hidden for a reason and a mentor can uncover them for you. Ask questions and get to know someone who is succeeding at what you want to try.
  5. Books and Guru’s – Now this is a combination of options. Jim Rohn and Les Brown can be considered Guru’s, but they are primarily motivational speakers. This list also involves learning and each topic has a couple hundred books written about it and experts in that field. They put thousands of hours of study and experience together so you don’t have to. I’m reading a great book right now by Eric Worre called Go Pro: 7 Steps to Becoming A Network Marketing Professional. This book has opened my eyes to getting out and talking to people correctly for the right response. I’ve also finished Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Poor Dad. This book should be in every 8th Grade Finance class. What? The 8th Grade doesn’t have a Finance class? See where I’m going with this?
  6. Internet – This is a given of course. You are reading this using the internet. Right now, there are approx. 1 billion Google searches every day, 300 million Internet users reading blogs, and 2 billion videos viewed daily on YouTube according to a 2010 study and you know those numbers have grown in the past 3 years. {source} At anytime, you can find information about any topic from all over the world with many different view points and with many different opinions. You are bound to find a site the is saying what you want to believe to help you learn the correct way to share your product and get you empowered to make life happen. So get out there and find it. Or if you can find it…Share it. You be the change in the your world.
“Don’t be distracted by criticism. The only taste of success some people have is when they take a bite out of you.” – Zig Ziglar. This can also mean your internal criticism. How many times have we stopped ourselves from doing what we know is right because our internal monologue talked us out of it? Don’t listen to negative. Embrace the positive.

As always, please Contact me for information on savings and earnings for you, your family and small business. And also, “Who wants to go on a Cruise?” I DO!!! I’ll let you in on how to go on a cruise. This is a very limited time offer and I need to hear from you soon. I believe you can do it.
