Passive Income Opportunities for Cashflow Club Members
Being an ardent fan of Robert Kiyosaki and a RichDad personal coaching student myself, I have an affinity towards cashflow clubs. During my cashflow club meetings, I have noticed that every time there is a gathering there are always fresh faces to be seen. That’s a clear sign that more and more people are being attracted to the idea of getting out of the rat race. However, on the down side many of them who have attended earlier do not seem to hang on

What to do when Overwhelmed – a 5-step approach
There are generally two reasons why people procrastinate. One is when they don’t know what to do and the other, is when they have too much to do and don’t know where to start. Let’s talk about the latter part – the one where there is too much to do. This condition is popularly known as Overwhelm. But unlike what most people perceive, overwhelm is actually a good thing - at least, better than not having anything to do at all. Let’s look at how one can easily get over this hurdle.

Good Debt, Bad Debt: Know the difference
Does debt make you richer or poorer? Ask a poor or middle class man, and he will say it makes me poorer. Ask the rich, and he will say that it makes me richer. Why are the answers at the opposite ends of the spectrum? The reason why the answers differ is because of the kind of debt that each class refers to. The poor and the middle class look at all debts are ‘bad’ debts, whereas the rich look at debts as ‘good’ debts. Now, what’s the difference between ‘Bad’ and ‘Good’ debts? The former takes money out of your pocket, whereas the latter puts money in your pocket. Understanding this fundamental difference will do you a whale of good when it comes to financial management. Let’s explore further.

How to start off fresh each day
Maria Robinson said, “Nobody can go back and start a new beginning, but anyone can start today and make a new ending.” Ralph Waldo Emerson said, “Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense.” As you may have gathered by now, it becomes imperative that...

How to Become An Extrovert
I was staring down at a post-it note with a phone number of a potential client on it. My mind was racing about how to start the conversation so that I can get an appointment with him. My palms were sweaty and my breath short. I was thinking to myself, “John, this is the 3rd freakin’ day that you have been staring down that note and have not mustered the courage to pick up the phone and talk! Enough is Enough! Do it now! Do it now!” I picked up...

Importance of Coaching: Why does one need one?
When an evil spirit goes out of the person, it travels over dry country looking for a place to rest. If it can't find one, it says to itself ‘I will go back to my house which is clean and all fixed up’. Then it goes out and brings seven other spirits even worse than itself and they come and live there. So when it is all over, that person is in worse shape than at the beginning. - Matthew: 12: 43-45 If you have read this verse before, what was your understanding? Well, let me tell you...

The Opportunity of the Information Age
In the book Outliers, Malcolm Gladwell explains that success by no means is just sheer hard work and high IQ. It also involves your upbringing, being presented with the right opportunity at the right time and your thought process. There is one section that I found quite interesting. He lists down the 75 richest humans ever to set foot on planet Earth, from Pharaohs to the current day Carlos Slims. The #1 was...

An Essential Ingredient of Success: Persistence

Luck is what happens when preparedness meets opportunity
Being an avid aviation fan since childhood, planes (especially general aviation) have always had a special place in my heart. And I remember very clearly the time when I had an opportunity to work for Boeing. I was invited for the interview and result was that they liked me but they did not like my skill level for the particular role I was supposed to execute. So what happened? The opportunity passed by. But did I give up then? No. I kept learning and training myself more and more. I didn’t give up on the dream of working for a dream-company like Boeing. And it paid off, but almost a year from the initial interview. I was finally given the opportunity to work for one of my dream-companies. Now, what do you think happened there? Why was I given the role later? The reason is simple and it’s right there. It’s because

The Secret of Growth-How to get Compensated more
The other day, during one of my regular visits to my retail stores, I happened to give a small pep talk to my boys at the shop. The boys found it very valuable and insightful, so I guess I might as well share it with you. So what did I tell them during that pep talk that left my team feeling inspired? I asked them, “Why is it that you, working as a technician, working in a hot and humid environment, and physically involved in hard manual labor, get paid so low compared to a manager who sits in an air-conditioned environment with no physical labor to his credit?” The answer that I got was, ‘Because the manager is more educated than us’, ‘Because the manager manages the whole show’, ‘Because the manager makes decisions’, etc. Now, let me ask YOU the same question. What is your answer?

How to get the world to respond to you – A Facebook Lesson
Let me be frank with you. I’ve never liked facebook as much as I’ve hoped to. Even though it’s seems so much fun, I never got to be comfortable with it. Honestly, I couldn’t figure out why it didn’t suit me. But that’s until recently. Today I know exactly why I couldn’t sync with facebook, and I am taking corrective actions to make things right. So what was it about facebook and me that didn’t gel? It was this - I felt I am posting valuable content, but I was not getting anybody to respond to it. Very few, if at all, used to comment or like my content, and these were from friends that I am already acquainted with. But when I used to see other people getting a ton of comments, I used to unconsciously feel envious and used to ask myself as to what’s got so many people participating in that topic? Yes, I did get the answer; and from...

Your Environment: A Determining factor to your Success
In his book Blink, Malcolm Gladwell covers a topic on Priming The Subconscious Mind. I feel there is an interesting point being exercised here, and would like to share it with you. He mentions about a very curious test conducted by a psychologist named John Bargh, called the Priming Experiment. Read on...

Online Entrepreneur – Opportunity to embrace the new trend
The last business that I failed in was in the holiday and tourism industry. I had partnered with 2 other friends in selling timeshare packages to the market. The money seemed good, the business plan was drawn out and we got on with the game. However, the economic downturn hit and out went the sales. No one was interested in buying up vacation packages when all they had on their mind was survival. You can say ‘Wrong timing’ or ‘Ignorance of Economic Trends’ was the cause of the downfall. It did cost me a bit of money – office rent, office furniture and fixtures, brochure design and printing, etc. And that’s when I went broke the second time in my life!

Time Management Tips for Entrepreneurs – How to boost your personal productivity
One of the most common challenges that people face, especially entrepreneurs, is to effectively manage their time. In this information age, there is too much information to sift through and if you let the information control you then you will feel overwhelmed and under-achieve. So what does one have to do to improve their personal productivity? Several ideas have been proposed and here I would like to summarize all the points into 4 main points. So let’s get started.

What causes people to take action – A fundamental analysis
Imagine a 100-meter stretch of isolated road running through the Nevada desert. You and I are standing next to a car parked to the side. There are 2 traffic cones placed across the road with a distance of 3 meters between them. You have been given a challenge to drive the car between the cones without touching. Simple test, isn’t it? Let’s see what makes you do it.

How to eliminate Poverty – Lesson from the Parable of the Talents
In the bible, Jesus talks about the parable of the talents, wherein the person who multiplied his portion of the money was given more and the one who hoarded it lost even that. The same is EXACTLY true in real life. People who adopted and applied this philosophy multiplied their resources and became rich, and the ones who did not remained poor. I am of the opinion that we everyone of planet earth could apply this philosophy then there wouldn’t be any poverty at all, which in turn will lead to more harmony, less crime and more peace. So if there was a PRACTICAL way for the masses to apply the philosophy, people would be must better off financially. This article will show you exactly what you need to do to apply this teaching.

There is no such thing as ‘Free Money Online’
The other day, during my keyword research, I was researching some popular keywords. What caught my surprise is that the keyword with most searches in that particular category was ‘Free Money Online’. This got me thinking about people not having a clue about how money works and what it stands for. Hopefully, this article can shed some light on how money works and what you need to do to earn it. Kindly note that I said ‘earn it’. The core problem with today’s generation is their idea of...

Meaning of Wisdom – It’s a 3-step process
Albert Einstein once said, “Wisdom is not a product of schooling but of the lifelong attempt to acquire it”. In order to truly understand what he meant you have know the true meaning of wisdom. Over the years I have been harboring the wrong notion on wisdom. I was under the impression that knowledge is wisdom. And I am sure that there are millions of others who think the same way. Thanks to Dr. Myles Munroe, I got the true meaning of wisdom the other day. I felt so enlightened and free at this newfound knowledge. And I am sure you the reader will find it same too.

The Pursuit of Fast and Easy money – A road to disaster
Daegen had walked to the nearest grocery store at around midnight to buy himself a Gatorade. When in queue the person behind him tapped his shoulder and asked for a $1. Daegen asked him what he needed the money for. The stranger started off by telling that he did not have any money and that he had just got out of prison and did not have a job. Daegen, out of curiosity, asked him why he went to jail in the first place? The stranger said that he used to run cocaine from city to another and that he got caught. He was sentenced to 20 years in prison. As if things were not bad, around the 8th year an inmate...

Man always rises to meet up to his expectations
When I took over the management of a chain of retail stores in the auto-service industry, one of the biggest challenges that I faced was the incompetency of the staff. Two points stood out very strongly: a) Whoever I asked, had a bad opinion about the non-performers and b) The so-called non-performers were actually not producing results. “Obviously!” you might think. How can you expect non-performers to produce results? Well, that’s what I thought too, at least initially.

Life Success Tip – Be wary who you listen to
I experienced an enlightening moment the other day. I received an email from a gentleman asking me to explain what can I offer him that my business system cannot. Even though it seems like a straightforward question, it is not. I thought about it for a while, before I responded to it. The answer is something very simple, but very deep if you actually go to look at it. From the outside, it would seem silly and weightless, but from the inside it has the makings of a solid foundation. So what was my answer to that question? Before I tell you that, let me relate a true-life story, which I heard from Les Brown, America’s foremost motivational speaker.

If you go through life being Casual, you will become a Casualty
Man, for some reason, even though he knows the consequences for certain actions, ends up doing it nevertheless. Man’s indifference towards himself has been one of the biggest banes to the society he lives in. Let me give you an example. Yesterday, I had my broadband connection disabled by the telecom company because of non-payment of dues. The line that I am using is registered under my friend’s name, and as per our deal my friend is supposed to pay the monthly dues. But he failed to do so, 3 months in a row, resulting in me suffering from the loss of connectivity. The problem is...

Man always achieves the goal that he sets for himself. Always.
I have always been a person who keeps hopping around from one hobby to another. For some time I was crazy about learning how to play the guitar. And I learnt it. Then I was crazy about setting up aquariums. And I ended up with 2 of them in my house. For some time it was angling, and I spent lots of money and time indulging in it. Then I fell for flight simulators. And I learnt it inside out in much detail. Photography came up next. And I went into great detail in that too. Fitness and muscle was another of my hobbies. And I spent some time on that too. These are just to name a few. This attitude towards life made people give me the ‘What’s new?’ today kind of look. I was branded as the guy who never sticks to one thing and keeps jumping around. And it was not a good thing.

How to change a habit
If you were a driver, then you would relate easily to this regular occurrence that all drivers have come to experience at some point in time. Many times I have noticed to my amazement that whenever I am on the phone (hands-free, of course), while driving a frequented route, I end up reaching my destination without even realizing it. All I remember is that I got on the phone and now I am parked at the destination. It’s miraculous how your brain takes complete control of where you are going without any conscious effort from your side, provided it’s a frequented or regular route. I want you to re-read the last part of the sentence ‘provided it’s a frequented or regular route’. You know why this happens? If you can truly understand the ‘why’, you will end up having the answer to most of life’s mysteries.

Are You Prepared for Success?
Self-employed creative, professional people say that success means their docket is full and they're confident that the work will continue to come as long as they serve clients well and continue to spend some time on marketing. Unfortunately, most people look ahead to success without realizing the day will actually come. Consequently, they don't prepare and they get stalled by all the work required to move into the next phase of growth. Read more to find out what happened to "Ron" and Nancy, and about the 7 things you can do now to prepare for success.
