OUR DEBT FREE NATION - OUR DEBT FREE WORLD - OUR FREE MARKET GLOBAL ECONOMIES
| |
| With so many people around the world living in ultra poverty, growing unemployment, hunger on the rise in so many countries, people online trying to make livings-having little success at pulling in the wanted currency, everyone trying hard and seeking yet not finding the capital they need, why don't we open up and have a truly free market for awhile. Some online sites already do this like the FREECYCLE networks around the country, lets move on and SHARE THE WEALTH that exists on EARTH already. |

Ideas and Actions of a CEO
| |
| CEOs are more than action oriented people. They must be reflective, come up with the lead example, determine the lead course and have great faith in the ideal they are promoting. Great leaders of the past are good examples to study for clues as to how to lead, beliefs to possess, action to take, people to care for and earth and land to entrust. The great are given much and from them much is expected. They must be worthy and act determinedly in the position they have been privileged to stand in |

Affirmations
| |
| Affirmations do work! Often people give up on affirmations after a few weeks as they feel that they are not working. I often describe an affirmation as being like a seed. You have to be patient, nurture it and cherish it, until it blossoms into what you desire. Often you can’t see the seed growing under the earth – but it is! You just have to trust.

Little Known Way of Getting Cheap Content Writers!
| |
| There are millions of people on the face of this earth who have an inadequate control over the language of power, English. They fall tongue-tied when it comes to fashioning their message into a presentable format. It's not that they are not creative enough but maybe they are unable to fully realize their verbal potential. But that doesn't mean that this infirmity would cause a cessation of their work or a drop in the quality of their work.
To help them out, the Third World countries or more mildly put the developing nations have thrown a new crop of professionals, people who flourish in the art of content writing. Several people have a misconception or let's say conflict regarding the job description of content developer and content writer. |

Opening Your Mind Like a Blank Piece of Paper
| |
| I’ve been having a conversation with my editor about my next book. It’s a difficult thing to do, especially when you’ve just finished writing one, as I just did, and are frankly tired of listening to your own voice, and struggling to get the book done, and being so uncertain about whether what you intended to create is what you are actually creating, and working toward the deadline, and missing it, and then working toward the new deadline, and missing that one too, and then, knowing, deep down, that the next deadline is the last deadline and it looks like a mountain you could never climb. |

Guerrilla Marketing And Karate
| |
| The karate master learns everything necessary to slam his hand through the wooden boards. He doesn’t even think about the boards, only about seeing his hand on the other side of them. Their being shattered is not part of his vision. The board is merely an illusion. His hand beneath the cracked boards is the only reality the karate master will accept. Theory is what helped him earn his black belt, but he never would have earned it if he had not taken action. |

Consider it a love poem to you all, and to all the Dreamers everywhere. |

Heart
| |
| Some things cannot be measured, and the heart is one of them. I think of three former NFL football stars. Mike Singletary, according to the experts, was too short and his 40-yard speed was not that great. However, they could not measure his heart and they did not measure his speed for the first five to fifteen yards, and at that distance he was exceptionally fast. As a result, when a running back broke through the line of scrimmage . . . Singletary was able to stop him in the first couple of yards. That made quite a difference. |

What if I already had a plan?
| |
| Discovering what our life's purpose is is a popular concept these days. Could this be because more and more people are awakening to the reason they are here, on Earth, the purpose that is suppose to give our life meaning? Some even say it is destiny, a pre-determined purpose set up to dictate our life's existance. Well what if, rather than it being destiny or a pre-determined purpose created by someone else, it actually is a plan that I, myself, created for my life before I made the journey here. That would mean that I am the one creating my own destiny, my own life's purpose. And my biggest challenge here, on Earth, is to simply remember or re-connect with the plan that I already created for myself. How awesome is that!!!!! |

The Art of Manifesting the FLOW of Money In Your Life

| You may know we all have the potential to have millions of dollars, and live the life of our dreams. As an entrepreneurial business coach that utilizes universal laws, I observe this to be true very often. I would go as far as to say - it's a FACT.

Money is "currency", it flows in and out of our lives like the water we drink .
So, how does money FLOW? And what do you need to know to allow financial giving and receiving to happen with ease. |

Light Employees’ Passion for Jobs
| |
| The door to positive and permanent change opens from the inside rather than being absorbed from the outside. Each of us has a purpose and a challenge, but we must uncover it to bring passion to the surface. Managers who ask workers what they “want” to do instead of what they “can” do are better equipped to put people in the right positions. |

How Your Negative Past Can Be an Asset According to Erica Combs
| |
| Many people feel beaten up by what has happened to them in their past. Many are down on themselves because of decisions they have made in the past that have not worked out. They think poorly of themselves because of the negative baggage they carry around.
It shouldn’t be this way. We weren’t placed on the earth to be miserable, to think poorly of ourselves.
Erica Combs said something about this that has really stuck with me. I think it’s a powerful statement. The purpose of this article is to try to convey that message to you. |

Extraordinary Day
| |
| The other day a friend made an off-hand comment that made me laugh at first and then ponder. We had had a brief chat early in the day and then he said, “OK, you right the world and I will speak to you later.” There was something paradoxical and empowering about that comment. I would do something totally earth shattering during the day and then we would have another routine chat that evening. Rather like the line “Only got 4 minutes to save the world” from Madonna’s song “4 Minutes.” When I listen to that song, I think, “Well, if Madonna can save the world in four minutes, I can definitely accomplish everything on my to do list,” no matter how daunting it looks. |

What’s Your Compelling Purpose?
| |
| All of us are in search of a clear and driving purpose for our lives; we want to contribute to something bigger than ourselves. The world of work offers a great opportunity for people to connect with a purpose. The reality is that people care less about working for a company and much more about working for a compelling cause. Without a purpose, our teams are just putting in time. Their minds might be engaged, but their hearts will not be. A team without a purpose is a team without passion. They might achieve short-term results, but they won’t have the heart to go the distance.

Social Disease

| I have always subscribed to the philosophy of “work hard - play hard”. But I always separated my play FROM my work.

There is an inherent danger in creating a social environment within the workspace that spreads to the after work space. This almost ALWAYS ends badly.

| Core Desires are those things you have your heart set on- what you want to be, have, or do most. One might think that identifying these Core Desires would be easy, but people often tell me, "I don't know what I want, please help me." This dilemma affects people of all age groups and crosses all political, social, and economic lines. People tell me that they don't know what they want to be, have, or do when they "grow up." They are still searching. |

Al Gores’ Approach to Work-Life Balance
| |
| In Al Gore’s documentary on global warming (An Inconvenient Truth), he makes reference to a picture used by the Bush administration to illustrate the conflict between money and environment. In the picture, there is a scale: on one side of the scale, there is a pile of gold bars, on the other the earth. As Al Gore somewhat wryly pointed out…gold is not much use to you if you have no earth.
I must say the same thought strikes me when I read about “work-life balance.” |

Finding SelfWorth
| |
| Dear Jane,
I know I'm self-critical. But how do I stop? My self-esteem is at about a zero and the lower it's gone, the worse it seems others treat me.
In my self-help book, Enough Is Enough!, I talk about what it’s like to hang out in Courtroom Earth vs. the Classroom Earth. In Courtroom Earth, we act as our own judge, jury, and executioner. Most of the time, we don’t even realize we’re doing this to ourselves. What about you? Do you beat yourself up for everything? Do you compare yourself to other people? Do you find yourself being driven, addicted to more and more evidence to prove that you are worthy? Then do you end up tired, resentful, frustrated, short tempered, with an even greater urge to control and do?
