What is a Maverick Money Maker? By Robert Hemken Jr

You no doubt have heard the term being tossed around lately
"Maverick Money Maker" and have wondered what it means. I know
the first time I heard it I thought it was just a catchy phrase
for another Internet marketing scheme. Boy was I wrong. Let me
explain.

Are you familiar with the term affiliate marketer? Most likely
you are. If not, it is some one who sells or refers some one
Else's product for a commission. This is a very popular way to
make money online these days. A Super Affiliate is some one who
is very good at this, someone who makes a handsome living
marketing online, other people's products. Super Affiliates make
thousands of dollars a day.

We all know what a Maverick is. Someone who doesn't do things
in the expected way or some one who strikes out on his or her
own against all odds. This attitude when applied to affiliate
marketing means someone who thinks outside the box and is
willing to try new techniques along with the proven ones to earn
some money online. A Maverick Money Maker is someone who is
willing to work hard and expects to receive the fruits of his or
her labor for doing so.

Who wouldn't like to make a little extra money or even a
handsome living online? Most who try fail and get discouraged
and never try again. But not a Maverick Money Maker. Did you
know that Thomas Edison failed thousands of times before he
finally invented the light bulb? After one failure he said
"learned one more way not to make a light bulb". What a positive
thinker, a Maverick in his own time.

Most of us, my self included, work hard at our regular jobs but
just never seem to be able to get ahead of things. In the
current economy many of us are falling behind. Many have gone
bankrupt and have even lost their homes. It would be nice to
make a little extra money but we just don't have the time. It
takes a real Maverick to get out of the rut we seem to be in.
Anyone who becomes an affiliate marketer has that potential and
is a bit of a Maverick.

Being a Maverick Money Maker is not for everyone but it can be
lucrative and satisfying. It can be accomplished by investing a
very small amount, close to nothing. The biggest expense is a
computer and an internet connection and I'll bet you already
have these in place! However, you will have to invest your time,
the more invested, the faster results will be seen.

A Maverick Money Maker shows a profit immediately, within the
first 30 days usually. There is no need for a web page or a
large advertising budget. You will have to invest in yourself by
spending the time and energy in learning the techniques required
to be a Maverick Money Maker.

Would you like to be a Maverick Money Maker? I thought so.

A Money-Maker Attitude For Putting Money In The Bank By Dianne M. Buxton

Whether you are struggling to get ahead, or are as wealthy as
Oprah, you probably have some unmet goals that somehow elude
you.

Do you shudder and suppress fear when you think of your
retirement income - that is, if you can consider retiring? After
all, retiring is about income, not age. And the whole social
security issue is pretty scary....

What exactly is that money-maker attitude that will put the
money you need in the bank? How are you really feeling when you
focus on what you want?

You may have seen the movie "The Secret" and learned about the
law of attraction. It's very exciting. But where do you start
applying "think positive and get the results"? What are all the
related beliefs and patterns involved in that?

Brad Yates states in "Money Beyond Belief" that:

"Money is simply the visible manifestation of your internal
beliefs about wealth and abundance. They're all part of the same
"unified field," or system".

He explains how a tapping technique can be used to heal your
negative emotional patterns with 9 simple taps, on spots on your
body that are essentially, energy gateways. Brad's premise is
that the lack of money in your life is simply a distortion in
your energy field--that you can heal within minutes.

He believes you can release inner-conflicts around money and
expects that you will feel an amazing, pleasurable surge of
energy each time you do the technique.

Accordingly, you can attract countless money-making
opportunities into your life and you won't be able to stop
opportunities from coming in.

You will be able to tune your subconscious mind into a
perpetual "wealth frequency" (which is always on and working!)

This process will then transform your relationship to money (so
you're not stressed out about where the next paycheck is coming
from). You would have a different default state of mind, a
better resting place for when you are not deliberately focusing
on what you want.

I've written quite a lot about "what you say (think, vibrate
with) is what you get". This is a good way to leave behind the
specific words and phrases (reflecting your true beliefs) that
have been keeping you from being successful.

This tapping technique is a "do-it-yourself" healing system
that you can practice anytime. Literally.

I've got some more about it on my blogs and I recommend it for
changing the long and winding road to a shorter and happier
path.

fit, and successful? And enjoy your life, thoughts, talents,
family, office space and home more? Dianne provides inspiration

Review: Google Profits - The Easy Way To Earn On Google By Gary Paul

Whenever it comes to investing in information, I always
remember the story of the plumber who fixed the factory’s pipes
and invoiced a hefty fee for “knowing where to hit”.

Here follows my review on an ebook that “knows where to hit”
when it comes to making money with Google.

The Google Profits ebook by Wade Winger

Google Profits opens with an introduction to the basics on a
particular brand of internet earning: harnessing the combined
power of affiliate marketing and Google Ads.

The recommended affiliate system in the book is Clickbank, and
you are given everything you need to know, including clear
screen shots, on how to set up a ClickBank account and get
choosing the eproducts that can earn a steady income in
affiliate commissions.

The book is divided throughout into two sections: information
and action - the information sections tell you everything you
need to know, clearly and concisely and the action sections take
you through how to do things. Again, with screen shots and very
clear instructions.

This ebook would be worth it’s cover price for the hand-holding
in getting set up with ClickBank and Google Ads alone - but it
goes way further.

Wade Winger is an honest and easy to follow author, who reads
as a supportive guide on the rocky road to internet riches. He
gives good information, clearly knows what he’s talking about
from direct experience, and he readily shares the tips and
tweaks that are the difference between making a profit and
running up your Visa bill with Google ad fees that don’t make
sales.

His safety formula for bidding on ads that will bring results
is excellent.

Throughout Google Profits you feel like you’re in good and
experienced hands, there is never a sense of a half-baked
product out to make a buck. Wade is giving you his own time
tested recipe for success.

He even gives a detailed breakdown of his own test campaigns
and shows you how to decide a potentially good earner from a
product that won’t earn you money, with just a few days and a
few dollars investment.

I’ve tested his process myself, and am watching my profits and
progress with interest. Once you’ve got the hang of the info
from the book, all you really need to replicate the process and
set up additional money earning ad campaigns is the handy cheat
sheet included as a bonus. With Google Profits by your side, you
could well be on your way to a tidy second income.

In conclusion: a well presented, informative and hype-free
manual to earning money with Google ads and affiliate products.
Highly recommended.

Three (Big) Little Diamonds: Google Suggest, Google Copyscape And Google Pages By Henry Aldrete

The three-hundred pound gorilla is actually trying to help you.
What the Google lab works has done is to create several tools
designed to help any Internet business grow. This article will
discuss the three major tools to find keywords, protect your web
copy and get listed quickly on the search engines.

For free no less!

Let’s start with the first: Google suggest. This is a little
known but powerful tool that will find keywords for you based on
the words you input. It looks just like the normal google search
engine page except that as you type google “guesses” what your
next letter will be -like the predictive text feature of cell
phones- and serve up ten popularity-based keywords and their
total search numbers for a given period of time. What’s it good
for? Keyword searching based on Google's own search records! You
can even drill down on any keyword to find a sub-set of very
useful keywords and their search numbers.

The second tool is Google copyscape. We all know web copy
“stealing” is rampant on the web. Outright copying of pages is
wrong of course and can land you in serious trouble but it is a
known fact that many marketers have and use a “swipe” file made
up of other marketers web copy that has potential to be used in
one’s own web copy. I don’t know about you but I don’t want my
web copy to be used illegally by anyone! (If you really want it
just ask). Ok so how can Google copyscape help? This is a free
service from copyscape.com, you simply put the copyscape html
code on your pages (which is actually the copyscape.com logo.
This warns users to not copy your pages). Visit copyscape.com
and input your own web site .com name and copyscape (now owned
by google) will scan the entire Internet for any duplication of
your web pages copy. This is a quick way to find who is using
your material without your permission. What you do after that is
your business.

The third tool can help you get links back your main site and
with a little luck get you'll get listed quickly by Google
itself. Go to Google.pages. And after you sign up, you put up
simple web pages using the on line web page maker software (it's
actually very easy to use). The trick is to put a link somewhere
on those pages back to your main web site. Because it is run and
operated by Google itself, you will get spidered very fast and
with that link back to your web site you should get a bump in
your main web sites rank. Brilliant!

So there you have them. Three excellent tools to do research,
protect your pages and rank quickly. As a business marketer
(whether on line or off line) you should always be on the
lookout for new and better ways to accomplish your plans. These
three tolls will help you do just that. Be sure to Visit:
labs.google.suggest, copyscape.com and google.pages and start
growing your business today.

A Beginner’s Tutorial On How To Use YouTube Video By Paul Lyke

Whether you’re wanting to distribute your videos for personal
or business, YouTube is the easiest way to get started in web
video. All you need is a video capture device (webcam, mobile
phone, digital camera) and a computer with an internet
connection, and you’re ready to go. The other part is to create
interesting, informative or compelling content that would
attract viewers. This is the part that most users forget to
focus on. So here’s how to get started:

1) Decide if this is for personal fun or business reasons.
YouTube is used for business, but most use a professional video
production company to film and edit their video first. YouTube
is only used as a distribution channel. You don’t want the
first impression of your business to be amateur webcam video, so
leave it to the professionals. If you’re doing YouTube for fun,
then technical quality doesn’t matter...only content matters!

2) Plan your video content. YouTube videos that get watched are
the ones that are UNIQUE. It’s something amazing or informative
that people have never seen before. Maybe it’ll be something
fun, like rolling a 15-foot ball made out of Legos down the
street, or filming your cats and overdubbing them with voices.
Or you can take a journalistic approach, like the guy that was
stuck on a plane for three hours on the runway, without any a/c
or water. He grabbed his cellphone and made a video of his
experience, and uploaded it to YouTube. It was such a PR
nightmare for the airline, he got a $100 voucher out of it! The
other approach to your YouTube content can be for educational
information. If you’re an expert at a piece of software, you can
use screen capture software that automatically records your
screen and narration on how to use it. Maybe there’s a
political, religious, or industrial topic you would like to
debate on a particular channel. Just remember to always create
compelling content that will attract an audience.

3) Setup your video capture devices to record. If you use a
webcam, you can record directly at YouTube’s website. First
create a free account, then select "Upload" text link at the top
middle of the page. Click "record from webcam" and Adobe flash
player will ask you permission to turn your webcam on. Click
“Allow” and you’ll instantly see yourself on the webpage! Then
click "Ready to Record" and you’ll be recording. After you’re
done, click STOP, and you can watch what you did, publish, or
re-record. If you’re recording your video on a cell phone, some
will let you upload directly to YouTube, or it makes a digital
file that you can transfer to your computer when you connect via
your USB cable. In that case, click "upload video" and point it
to your video file on your computer. The other option is to use
your digital camera, most of which take decent video. After you
take your video, simply transfer the video file to your
computer, and select "Upload Video" on the YouTube upload, and
select your video file. The file will automatically upload and
show you the progress of the upload.

4) Specify your video title and keywords. After you’ve uploaded
or published your video file, you now need to specify the
content of your video so users can find it. Craft the title of
your video to be descriptive and exciting. Instead of "talking
cats" something more like "Hidden camera catches cat
conversation" or "What cats say when no one is around" would be
much more intriguing. In the description field, you can expound
on your video with a few more sentences. The "Tags" field is for
keywords that people would be searching for. If you’re doing an
informative video about a political issue, you’d want to include
keywords of each of your main points in this field.

5) Designate the broadcasting and privacy options for your
video. Most of these can be left to the default settings, as
they are the most popular. If you want your video to only be
viewed by a link that you send to people directly, and not
viewable or searchable to the general public, then select
"Unlisted". If you only want certain viewers that you specify,
select "Private." Decide if you want to enable public comments,
or if you want to be able to approve or disapprove of certain
comments before they’re posted. There are a few other options
for your video but if you’re just getting started there’s no
reason to mess with them. Then just click “save changes” and
you’re ready to go! Depending on the length of your video, it
could take a few minutes to fully process and become searchable.

Feel Success, Live Success, Have Success By David Fishman

You can start right now and be successful? When you try to
focus on the positive things in life you start to see more
positive things. You need feeling, believing and positively and
successfully, start reading books about positive thinking and
being successful. Everyday you need to think and act successful,
by doing this you will feel and become successful.

Remind yourself that you are close to starting everything from
the beginning again. Get yourself a hobby anything that takes
your mind off the world for a while will help increase your love
of life and help you relax, eliminate stress, and enjoy peace.
Without pushing yourself you will never become successful or
have the ability to become successful.

Keep your plan with you at all times and read it aloud to
yourself several times during the day. By allowing yourself the
time, and I’m talking about just a few minutes here, to stop,
breathe deeply and relax effectively, you can soon reap the
rewards. To become successful you need to place your mind in
state of happiness and positive thinking, by doing this you
attract positive people and by attracting positive people you
will attract successful people who will help with your success.

Here is your key to success. Passion is the key to meaningful
achievement in any calling.

To answer this riddle, first you have to separate the behavior
from the positive intention of the behavior. If we have a
thought or we are depressed and we don’t like this we can easily
get rid of this negativity or negative thought by thinking of a
positive thought, by feeling the positive thought with our
emotions we are able to switch the universe to switch to the
more positive thought and the outcome is more acceptable to you.
If you change your behavior and your purposes, your life
position is not as it used to be any more.

Any formula based on behavior patterns has a good chance of
being successful.

It’s important to commit your goals to paper, so write them
down and display your goals where you will see them each day.
Break down larger long-term goals into monthly or weekly goals
so you can stay on track without feeling overwhelmed. Writing
your goals will effectively enable you to put them into action.

What is it that’s in it for you that will drive you to pursue
the goals that you have defined. Be very specific about your
goals. Only when there is a specific goal can you develop an
effective strategy.

Einstein says that “imagination is the glimpse into the future”
Every human who imagined and dreamed was able to bring this
dream into reality by believing that it was real already. When
you believe the universe has the ability to understand that this
is not a dream but reality and the universe realigns to make it
happen.

Success To Success - What Is The Meaning Of Success In Life? By Doug Firebaugh

Success.

What a wonderful word, and concept.

People have been striving for it all their life, and many
achieving Success, and others are not so fortunate. It seems to
elude them, and their life. Many have been pursuing Success for
years, and others start towards it and seem to find it almost
immediately. It is a concpet that wars have been fought over.
Success to one man was the capture and domination of another.
And it has been that way for eons.

The meaning of Success comes in many forms, and many
definitions. It depends on what you are searching for in life,
and searching for in business. Athletes may have one definition
of Success, and a stay at home mom may have another. A musician
may see Success as a number one hit, and a Doctor may see
Success as a surgery that went well. It really depends on the
perspective of life you have. Perspectives on Success are as
numerous as the stars.

But we need to start narrowing down an understanding of
Success:

There is a difference between Accomplishment, Success, and True
Success.

Lets' explore this briefly.

Accomplishment is where you have engaged in the task or action
that you attempted, and have obtained the desired results. It is
a based on what was expected, and what results were done. This
is a daily happening in the world and marketplace. People
accomplish things all day long, but really achieve no Success in
those actions.

Success is something different.

Success to most people is when you have an ongoing string of
accomplshments that when put together, add up to a major
obtainment in life known as Success. The addition of all the
accomplishments in a person's career or life can be viewed as
Success in their life and business.

Success then is an ongoing realization and obtainment of worthy
desired results, concerning actions, life, business, wealth, or
a worthy ideal.

But there is even a higher level of Success.

There is a more powerful level of High Achievement.

That is why we call the Path to Success "Success to Success."
It is Biblical that we all move from Glory to Glory, and we all
must move from one level of Success to another.

It is called "True Success."

True Success is simply the realization and obtainment of a
worthy ideal or result that your heart is deeply connected to
it. It is what births PASSION and your SUCCESS PASSION. It is
what people die for. It is why some people explode out of the
gates and create Success easily, and others struggle all their
life. They are operating on a whole different realm of Success
and actions.

It is a Success that is SOAKED with Emotion, Powered by
Passion, Driven by Destiny, and Forged with the Fire of the
Heart.

Theis is no more powerful Success than the Success that the
heart is welded to it by the Fire of Passion.

Then we would say that Success and your heart have a definite
connection in any type of True Success, and any kind that is
long term.

That is why that many athletes and artists have long careers.
Their heart is attached to their Success. That is why
entrepreneurs many times have long careers. They are operating
in their Passion and True Success Power. Many business people
today have experienced True Success in their life on an ongoing
basis.

Have you?

People accomplish things everyday. They accomplish results and
more. People Succeed everyday in the marketplace and on the
athletic field, as well as the professional field. The home
field with raising successful children is one of the greatest
True Success passions there is.

But few obtain True Success.

Why?

True Success has to be Passion driven, with a heart OnFIRE.
True Success is birthed from a Dream that cannot be denied. It
is driven by a hunger that cannot be stopped. It is driven by a
focus that is unrelenting. It is driven by actions that will not
be denied. And it is driven by a Force that knows no failure.

What is Success?

That is up to you. But it is not just accomplishment. It is
beyond that.

The steady realization of a moral and worthy ideal is Success
to most folks.

The steady realization of a dream and an ideal that is driven
by the heart and Passion that will not, cannot, and will never
be denied is Success to a few folks.

Those few folks not only know the meaning of Success, but also
the experience of a Deeper and Higher level of Success.

They are driven by Success, not just pursuing it.

And within that little difference is the meaning and power
between Success and True Success.

How to Make Money Fast Online Without Up Front Money – Your Easy Guide By Christopher Granger

If you ask people around for suggestions on how you will earn
extra money, many will tell you to check out the internet. Many
will tell you that it is one big place that offers lots and lots
of opportunities. You can actually try searching on the net and
you will really find many options for you. Unfortunately, not
all of those choices available there will let you start for
free. Many of them will require you to shell out some cash to
start. If you are asking how to make money fast online without
up front money, here is an easy guide for you.

One of your options is to join online paid surveys. With these
surveys, you do not need to spend anything to sign up. You do
not even need build a website. All you have to do is to search
for a paid survey company using any search engine and sign up.
Accomplish the application form that they will give and then you
are set to go. When you accomplish the form, make sure you are
generous in giving details about yourself. If you are asked your
interests, tell everything that interests you. When you are
asked about your skills, tell everything that you can do. You
need to do this so that the company will consider you in many
paid survey projects that they handle. If you will list limited
interests you will also have limited chances of being asked to
answer surveys. If you know you have a lot of time to spare, you
can sign up in several paid survey companies for even more
chances.

Another way on how to make money fast online without up front
money is to join online competitions. Companies sponsor
competitions which anyone can join. Usually they ask
participants simple questions that may or may not be related to
their products and select a winner after a set period of time.
You might think that this is not real because it is hard to
imagine that a company will give away prizes without asking for
anything in return. You are both right and wrong. You are right
because no company will really give out prizes for nothing but
you are also wrong because when you join online competitions you
also give something to them. However, what you give is not in
the form of cash but your own personal information. Usually you
are asked for your contact details like your cellular phone
number, home phone number and email address. This way they can
send you their promotional emails and gimmicks. This is okay
because if you are not compelled to buy their products anyway.
Besides, you can always use an alternate email address so you do
not get promotional mails in your personal or business address.
You might think that this is not a sure way to earn money
because it is dependent on luck. This is true if you do not
where to look for competitions. Your chances of winning can
increase in two ways. One is if you join many competitions and
second, if you join competitions of less popular brands. You
see, popular brands will likely have more participants. Your
probability of winning is diminished. Less popular brands have
lesser following so you have less competition.

These two ways on how to make money fast online without up
front money are helpful for people who do not want to gamble
with whatever little money that they have. With these two ways,
there is nothing to lose.

Making Easy Money Online: Why an Internet Business Can Allow You to Start Making Easy Money Online! By Paul Friar

It's great having your own business making easy money online.
Part of the reason that makes it so good is that costs hardly
anything to get it started.

Another reason is that people all over the world are prepared
to purchase almost anything on the internet - and you can be
there to sell to them. The numbers of potential purchasers
around the world are growing steadily because every government
wants their country to have internet access of some sort, and
most are pushing for the latest high speed broadband - so there
really is no excuse not to be able to find a supply of customers
for your product.

A third reason why an online business is perfect for many
people is simply that you can allow it to look after itself, for
the most part. There are many online business models that can
run automatically, making easy money online for their owners
even while that person is fast asleep!

The real secret of making easy money online is honesty - if I'm
honest!

Provided you can be honest with your customers about what you
are able to provide to them, and what your business can do to
benefit them, then they will be provided to purchase from you -
no matter how new your business might be, or the type of product
or service you provide.

You may not be able to go from earning very little to huge
amounts in just a short time scale (which you might like!) but
you should be able to earn at least a nice second income for
your efforts.

As I said earlier it does not have to cost you very much money
to start your online business. If you chose to setup a blog with
one of the many popular blogging platforms (most of which are
actually free!) then this could well be one of the best ways
that you could start making easy money online, provided you
setup the blog correctly, and get traffic to it.

There is one important aspect of setting up a business that
must be mentioned right now, before we get carried away with
just how simple it can be to begin making easy money online, and
that is the issue of business costs. Let me explain.

Even if you had ten million dollars that you could invest in
creating the ultimate online money making business that
destroyed your competition and only allowed you to make the
sales, you would still have to make ten million dollars of
profit after sales in order to recoup your initial investment.
Or to put it another way - every dime you spend in setting up
your business has to be got back before you can actually make
your profits.

So don’t go dismissing the idea of using the free blog
solutions if you think that they are somehow lacking in
features. At the very least use them until such time as you have
started making money and are able to afford the more expensive
web hosting packages you crave. Even then though, if I’m honest,
the web hosting packages are not that expensive ($100 a year for
everything, at a basic level) and the free blogging platforms
can be just as feature packed.

Remember there are always websites with plenty of free
information that can help to get you started making easy money
online. You just have to look around.

Wenetprofits (WNP) - A Big Way To Wealth By Colon Bolden

WeNetProfits (WNP) is an one of a kind home based business for
the masses, or more importantly an opportunity that can help you
make money and change your life at a phenomenal rate. This
extraordinary company was launched in 2009 by Danny Gautiel and
Mike Butler, who passion is to give people an easier path to be
able to have financial freedom.

WeNetProfits powerful mission statement explains that it is not
just a business that wants to help you make money; they also
want to give back to the less fortunate. This is mainly why The
Rescue Fund was invented. It is a fund created by WNP that
splits up money among a lot of different charities. Here are
some of the organizations that Wenetprofits support:

- The Make-A-Wish Foundation. Grants wishes to children with
life threatening medical conditions.

- Covenant House. An organization that helps homeless kids by
providing them food and shelter, as well as guidance and medical
attention.

- The Salvation Army. The world’s biggest social aid
organization.

- War Amps. Canadian organization that helps war amputees.

- Feed the Children. Provides not only food but also other
basic staples to children who are victims of war or natural
disasters. This is Mike Butler’s dream of the Give-Get Movement
of helping others.

In order to participate with WeNetProfits and be part of this
global movement, you will have to make an one time start-up
investment. There is also an annual fee of $29.95. You can then
upgrade to one of the 3 levels they offer which is the Silver
for $59.95, the Gold for $141.90 or the Platinum for $265.95.

The Silver stage was created to be a low cost stage so that
anyone can sign up for this opportunity. This is the most basic
level of the program but it still allows you to make money. The
Silver stage comes with a few more benefits such as Members
Social Network and our Members Online Forum, which allows you to
network and learn more about how to make money with this system.
The Platinum stage cost more because it comes with the most
benefits. In addition to the benefits the first two stages
provide; this stage also gives you the extra tools to be able to
grow your current business or to start a new business.

The way Wenetprofits opportunity helps you make money is
through commissions, which are acquired by generating members
who also sign up. Being that WNP is active in over 100
countries, you can refer people from almost anywhere in the
world. Commissions are then paid out in whatever payment
processor you choose. Payments are made daily.

Once you have registered, WNP also sets you up with your own
website and referral link. You can now direct people to your
site to explore and since your referral link is unique to your
account you will get credit for anyone who signs up. They even
provide you with the materials needed to help you market.
Referrals can even be sent to other people in your downline as a
way to help them out.

You might assume with any home based business you would have
tons of products in your house, but not with Wenetprofits. Their
fully automated system takes care of everything online for you,
especially all the products and services for their members.

7 Sources Of Capital For Starting A New Business By Colon Bolden

The number one reason that businesses fail is under
capitalization. The way you build your business capital is very
important but normally all small businesses require some capital
to get started. Depending on the business, you may only need the
capital for a short period of time to develop an inventory or
pay salaries. Other businesses may require facilities and
equipment purchases in addition to some operating capital to
cover business expenses until sales and revenues can support the
business. Here are 7 sources of capital you can use to get your
business on the right track:

- Personal Capital. This is the source of capital that
entrepreneurs turn to first because it's the most easy to use.
It's the cash on hand, bank accounts, stock, and other sources
of personal wealth that you can tap into for your business.

- Your Home. A home equity line of credit will allow you to
transfer the equity in your home to equity in your business. The
difference between the value of your home and what you owe could
be enough to cover your business start up expenses for a year.

- Bank CD. Do you have a CD in the bank that isn't matured yet?
Instead of taking the penalty for early cash out, consider
borrowing the money back, securing it with the CD.

- Retirement Accounts. You can borrow money from yourself
because it's easy money to tap into, and some of the interest
that you pay goes into your retirement account.

- Friends and Family. Try to avoid this source of capital
because of the potential relationship troubles if the business
fails. Your decision to borrow from friends and family is a
personal one, but it is often the easiest way to obtain
investment capital.

- Commercial Banks. When funding your business, commercial
banks provide the greatest flexibility for types of loans. They
will want to see your business plan, and usually six months to a
year of track record.

- Small Business Administration - Also known as SBA, is an
independent government agency formed in 1953 to help small
businesses. They provides loan guarantees, participates with
bank loans, and makes a limited number of direct loans.

I think the biggest problem that business owners have is that
they are perfectionists. They have started a business doing
something that they are good at but it is difficult to get staff
that can duplicate what you do. Therefore many business owners
tire out and after a period of time they are burned out because
they try to do everything themselves.

There are so many sources of capital out there to get your
business started but I hope you get the point with the few that
is mentioned. As a business owner and you're borrowing money at
the start of your business, you must be careful of what you're
trying to accomplish because if its not thought out properly
this can cause a strain on cash flows and income in order to
make debt payments.

Good Money Handling For Health And Well Being By Gabriel Adams

Many things can affect our health. Financial issues are one
that weighs heavily on many individuals. As prices continue to
rise out of control for living expenses, childcare, and
gasoline, more and more individuals suffer physically and
emotionally due to financial woes. Properly handling your money
will help offset some of these effects.

Anyone who has dealt with money issues can tell you it isn’t
easy. It can lead to high emotions and lots of conflict in a
relationship. This is especially true if each partner has
different spending habits. The best way to handle your money is
to create a budget. Write down your required monthly living
expenses. Next list your variable expenses. You will have to
choose ones to reduce or eliminate based on your disposable
income. Set up an amount of money each partner can spend weekly
or monthly on anything they want with the understanding that
when it is gone, it is gone.

It is a good idea to add some type of regular amount to save
for emergencies into your budget. An emergency isn’t concert
tickets or a trip. It is for something unexpected like the water
heater going out or new tires for your car. The less financial
issues you have the better you will feel. Who can get a good
night of sleep when they are worried about paying bills? Who can
relax when the phone is ringing off the hook with calls from
unfriendly bill collectors?

If you are having difficulties managing money it will affect
your health and wellbeing. Many non-profit groups offer
budgeting classes and credit counseling services at no charge.
They can help you assess your individual situation to determine
a plan that will work for you. They also offer ongoing
evaluations, tips, and payment schedules to help ease the
burden. You will feel better physically and emotionally.

Make Good Money On Copywriting By Ariel Joey Manigsaca

Outsourcing jobs from abroad is now considered as the
next-generation in home-based businesses. One type of job that
is has widely been a good source of income is Freelance article
Writing or also known as Copywriting. This is mainly because:

1. Copywriting is easy to do when you are creative and has good
research skills 2. Anyone can do it and it just takes some
practice and a desire to write. 3. Its fun! 4. The more
experiences you have, the more chances you are able to get more
writing jobs. 5. Above all is that lots of 'netizens especially
webmasters don't have time to write web contents a'nd articles
for themselves that's why they hire others to write for them.

This is basically the reason why Copywriting jobs is growing so
fast as one of the most sought-out jobs.

This is where people who want to write can experience the
benefits of copywriting especially when we talk of its
money-making potentials. At first it may not be a good source of
profit since most clients can afford to spend as low as $1 per
500-word article to as much as $30 on a 1000-word article.
Nevertheless, once you have establish yourself as a freelance
writer your client-base will surely grow. It only takes patience
and determination to work out this type of business.

Now when you have a good market of clients and writing jobs
becoming too many, this can also be good way for you to unload
yourself and share the jobs to others. This way you just get the
cut for marketing and getting jobs for them. SO when you have
established a pool of other writers you are now able to earn
more than you can imagine.

This is how I was hooked up with this great business when I was
receiving writing request from my clients who I do graphics. I
realized that perhaps copywriting has a huge market. So what I
did I set up my own copywriter site which is
http://copywriter.manigsaca.com to promote my services. Then
from there clients kept coming in. Of course it takes for you
market your services and copywriting site to forums and boards
as well as sending emails to friends and existing clients.

With, if you would like to earn extra income perhaps
copywriting is a very great business niche for you to come in.

Happy Copywriting!!

How to Make Money Fast Online – Convert Time in Front of the Computer to Money By Christopher Granger

How many hours do you spend in front of the computer each day?
You probably spend a lot. Many people spend long hours chatting
with friends or viewing profiles and pictures of others in
social networking sites. Downloading videos and songs also leave
people glued in front of their computers. Even online games lead
people, young and old, to consume most of their times in front
of their screens. The sad thing is that sometimes, people spend
more of their waking hours in front of the machine than with
real people. So much time is wasted. If you want your time to be
productive, why not try things that will allow you to earn extra
income online. Here are some examples on how to make money fast
online.

Many people love to give comments about things that they see or
experience. If you are one of them, you can actually turn this
commenting hobby into something worthwhile. That is by making a
website that reviews different products in the market. If you
want to do this to earn big money fast, choose products that
have big markets. For example, you can choose to target the
weight loss industry because it is one of the areas that is
always searched for by many on the net. People who are thinking
of using weight loss products usually look for reviews first
before they make any purchase. What you need to do is to write
reviews for different weight loss products available in the
market and tie up with their respective manufacturers. You make
money by getting commissions for every sale generated from your
site.

Another way on how to make money fast online is to resell web
host. This is basically a buy-and-sell type of business except
that what you sell are not regular consumer products but web
spaces. To do this, you need to buy a web space. You then divide
this web space into smaller portions and sell them to other
people. However, before you buy any web space, make sure that
they have reselling options. Not all do so better check that out
first. Then choose a web host that offers good prices and
outstanding customer support.

If creating a website is not your thing, you can opt to just
participate in online paid surveys. To start, look for paid
survey companies on the net. You will surely find a lot of them
in any search engines. Sign up with the company that you like
and once your profile fits the specifications for the surveys
they are making, you will receive the survey questions you need
to accomplish. When you sign up, it is advised that you put as
much important information about you as possible. You have to
appear as someone who has knowledge about a whole lot of things
to qualify you for many surveys. If not, you will not receive
survey questions much so you will earn less. It will also be
more rewarding if you join several paid survey companies so you
have more chances to earn.

You can do these ways on how to make money fast online to make
the time you spend in front of your computer productive.

Make Money Online Fast - 7 Important Tips For New Online Marketers to Succeed Fast By Nicholas Henwood

Making money online is a most common thing. Everyone is looking
for some opportunity to make money online. But the question is,
how many of you are making good bucks on internet? The fact is
that most people fail over and over again. They lose money, time
and confidence.

I have been doing my online business for more than 5 years. I
am very successful and making good bucks. Now, this is the time
for me to share my experience with you. I do not want to tell
long stories to you. I am going to be very short and sharp. The
tips I am going to share with you are precious like gold.

Tips for making money online fast and without any investment,

1. Do not go for pay per click, banner and text ad programs for
promoting your products or selling affiliate products. If you
are new to this, you will lose lot of money in pay per click
programs. After you earn some money online, when you expand your
business you can go for Pay per click programs. But initially
you had better avoid.

2. Do not go for any email blaster which claims you can send
millions of emails a day. This kind of marketing never works.
99% per cent people do not read such emails or mostly these are
scams. You have to build your own list. This will give you long
term benefits in online business.

3. Do not go for any instant websites online. Always get your
website built by any software developer near your place. Because
most instant websites available online are easy to build, but
when you need some important change in your site you cannot get
technical help immediately. If you are not technically qualified
it is very difficult for you to manage the database too.

4. When you consider email marketing, a most powerful tool,
never spam. Always go for a reliable email marketing company.
This will help to build a good opt-in email list. Build a good
list of prospects who can give you repeat sales. Never think
only your benefit keep the benefit of your prospects in mind
too.

5. Posting articles in Ezine websites will provide constant and
quality traffic to your site. This will generate good traffic
and high volume back links. Your site will indexed in search
engines like google, yahoo, msn, aol and many more. This will
increase your sales and traffic dramatically within few weeks of
your article submission. A premium membership will boost your
traffic.

6. Posting classifieds will help too. You can search for free
classified site on google. You will get so many classified sites
which accept posting of your ads for free of cost. But you had
better become a premier member to come in front page of the
related category.

7. Build your own blog. Publish high quality articles to
attract visitors.Put a link to your website. Promote it. Feed
it. Ping it. Always target your key words. Never forget to use
selected keywords which have high search volume.

This is enough for now. Online marketing is a big ocean. Slowly
you will explore it. If you need more tips to make money online

positively ought to have your own blog. Even if you are just
launching your online Network Marketing ventures, you should
understand how to setup your own blog as soon as you can. You

blogging. The last thing you want to do is pay for that kind of
information as it is available for free and with a tad of
investigation you ought to be able to find all the information
you want on the subject.

someplace on your MLM blog.

Just How Important Are Technorati Tags And Wordpress Categories By Danny Wirke

Taking into account that search engines are currently the
principal means for accessing blogs in the Internet, having
one’s blog listed among the top result of a search query is
paramount in order to drive traffic to one’s blog. To help boost
your blog’s ranking for search engine, here is a tip that any
webmaster worth his salt can tell you: Think of the most
probable keywords or tags that will be used to search for your
blog and then make sure to include these words in your blog
post. Make them part of your title. If you are a WordPress user,
make them your Technorati tag or WordPress category. Doing so
would give you a better chance of being crawled by the search
engines.

About Technorati Tags

Technorati is a popular real-time search engine that monitors
what is happening in the world of weblogs – the blogosphere.
Adhering to the idea that the relevance of a blog is determined
by the number of other blogs that link to it, Technorati traces
the number of links, the perceived importance of blogs, as well
as the actual time of blogging. Technorati automatically
receives advice from blogs as soon as they are updated.
Technorati tracks down all activities in the blogosphere and
indexes them immediately after posting.

As bloggers have probably realized by now, Technorati is an
authority in keeping up with the blogging community. Technorati
is one of the best traffic sources. Blog posts organized by
Technorati tags are its main feature. Technorati makes your blog
much easier to find when Internet users search by utilizing
Technorati tags.

A Technorati tag is a keyword or a category used to briefly
describe the subject matter of a blog post. It can be one or
more words. Bloggers categorize or classify their blog posts
using tags. The process of assigning tags to blog posts is known
as tagging.

For instance, you have a post about cooking, you can use tags
like healthy cooking, culinary delights, kitchen gadgets,
regional cuisine, food trips, etc. as your tags. You can tag
your post with anything you wish. Technorati will still index it
and display it on their tag pages.

Technorati tags are like the tags bloggers add to pictures or
images on Flickr, the photo sharing site (e.g. using the tag
”culinary delights” for a photo of a sumptuous parmesan chicken
with quick salsa verde dish). Technorati tags are also like the
tags used to bookmark blog posts in http://del.icio.us. Bloggers
assign tags and share all the links with other users through the
tags. In fact, Technorati works with these two sites. When you
go to Technorati and view a particular post for a specific tag,
you will also see images and links to blogs given the same tags
by bloggers on http://del.icio.us and Flickr.

Technorati tags offer another way of finding information and
interacting on the Internet. Technorati tags usher you to a
collection of posts tagged with the same tag. Technorati tags
can link to related tag categories not just on Technorati but
the other tag sites as well showing a compilation of posts from
around the web all related to the tag. Tags can also link to a
generated blog post enumerating all the posts on your blog
associated with that specific tag. Technorati tags can also be
linked from within the text thru a list anywhere on your blog
that will take you to the Technorati site for more posts related
to the same tag.

Technorati uses WordPress categories as tags. Technorati will
automatically recognize your WordPress category names as tags.
You can add more tags by just adding a rel=”tag” to any link on
your blog. You can also avail of the numerous WordPress plug-ins
for maximizing Technorati tags which can be found on the
Plug-ins/Technorati list in the WordPress site.

About WordPress Categories

Bloggers using WordPress as their blogging platform can
maximize the Categories feature. Categories come with WordPress.
You have full rein to add as many categories or subcategories as
you like to make it easy for users to find information they
need. As mentioned earlier Technorati uses WordPress categories
as tags.

Each post in WordPress is entered under one or more categories.
This allows posts with related content to be compiled together.
Each category may be assigned to a Category Parent. Categories
are displayed in hierarchy and alphabetically. Subcategories are
displayed after the Parent Category. There are some basic
information associated with a category – a unique name, category
parent, description (optional) and the number of posts which are
members of the category.

Links to categories are shown in different places on the blog.
WordPress lists category links in the sidebar. WordPress also
shows all the categories to which a given post belongs. When a
user views a blog and clicks on one of the category links, a
page with all the posts belonging to that category will be
displayed.

Just like traditional website marketing, organizing content
into categories, in this case WordPress categories, helps both
visitors and search engines to easily understand what your blog
posts are about and find other posts related to the same
category.

Optimizing Technorati Tags and WordPress for Search Engines

Tags are categories that organize the blog system. Given that
WordPress categories translate to Technorati tags, it follows
that by tagging a blog post, you connect it with a unique
category. Technorati provides a tag search that allows web
surfers to browse for posts in a particular category. If your
posts are properly tagged, this can bring significant traffic.

Google, Yahoo and MSN incorporate Technorati’s tag pages into
their search results. This is the reason why Technorati receives
much traffic. The longer your post stays at the top of a
Technorati tag, the more traffic you will receive. To stay on
top, you can continue posting new content related posts to a
specific tag.

How high the Technorati tag ranks in the search engine results
depend on certain factors. It depends in part on how relevant
and unique your Technorati tags are. The more relevant they are,
the more likely your blog post will appear in search results.
The better you match your Technorati tags (WordPress categories)
with the actual content of your blog post, the higher your post
will rank in search engines. It will also be effortless for web
surfers to navigate within your site. To put it simply, the
higher your search engine ranking, the more traffic you receive.

Another factor to consider in attaining a high page rank in
search engine results is the number of bloggers that have tagged
their posts by linking back to Technorati. In fact all blog
posts that tag directly to Technorati have received a boost in
link popularity. Based on the number of links to your blog from
other sites, your blog is given a Google PageRank (a system for
ranking web pages and blog posts). The higher the rank, the
easier it will be for web users to find your blog when they
search for related data. A high Google PageRank will definitely
increase your search engine optimization as Google PageRank
serves as the basis for the entire web search tools.

In Risky Markets, Following The Secrets Of The Ultra-rich, Not The Rich, Will Help Your Investment Decisions By J.S. Kim

Recently, there was an article on CNNMoney that spoke about the
“secrets” of the elite rich in the United States. In turn,
several articles were written about this article, including one
that stated that the richest of Americans “built their wealth
with diversification, wealth preservation and strategic growth.”
That is a ridiculous statement in itself because two of those
strategies, diversification and preservation don’t help build
wealth. Perhaps the richest of Americans use these two
strategies to maintain an even keel AFTER they have accumulated
great wealth, but certainly they didn’t use them during the
accumulation phase. According to this article, a survey of
Northern Trust uncovered that the “richest Americans do not
heavily rely on high-risk investment vehicles like hedge funds
to make money, but are moderate risk takers who put more than
half of their asset allocation into U.S. stocks and cash.”

Again, just as former hedge fund manager and multi-millionaire
Jim Cramer said that he used certain financial journalists,
including ones employed by the Wall Street Journal, as pawns to
spread misinformation far and wide to benefit himself, again
this is an example of investment institutions using the media as
pawns to spread their myths to keep the masses of retail
investors ignorant. The CNNMoney article made it appear that the
richest of Americans built their wealth by being conservative
and slowly growing their money over time. That’s an oxymoron
right there. To state that the rich became rich by slowly
growing their money over time. Well, if they are slowly growing
their money and becoming even richer, then this implies that
they were rich to begin with. So how did they accumulate wealth?
Surely not by “slowly growing” their money.

Sure, some of the “richest Americans do not heavily rely on
high-risk investments” because they ARE ALREADY EXTREMELY RICH.
The majority of ultra-rich do NOT build their fortunes by
speculating on high-risk investments as is commonly believed.
Often they build fortunes utilizing volatile assets and
investments but that does NOT mean they were engaging in risky
behavior. Many times, investing in a hedge fund can be much
riskier than investing in some of the assets that your
investment firm will tell you is “risky”. But investment firms
will gladly place a portion of your money in hedge funds because
the fees they earn from hedge funds are so high even as they
advise you not to put your money in a much less risky investment
with much greater earning potential. And THIS IS THE SECRET that
investment firms never tell you.

Volatile assets that often can be used to build great wealth
are NOT RISKY if they are purchased at entry points that are
extremely favorable and provide a low-risk point of entry. 99%
of investors don’t understand what high-risk investments truly
are because they have been misinformed by their advisors and
their firms for the past half of a century. Purchasing volatile
assets at low risk-high reward entry points greatly mitigates
and neutralizes the great majority of risk of volatile assets.
If you don’t understand this concept then you need to.

Many millionaires that are wealthy but that could be extremely
wealthy fail to build enormous wealth because investment and
financial institutions mislead them about certain investment
opportunities and describe them as complex and risky and are
able to convince their clients of this belief because they never
properly explain risk-reward scenarios to their clients.
However, those investors that are extremely wealthy are the rare
breed that understand this concept. If investors had a choice
between allocating $1,000,000 in a historically volatile
Investment A that has a 78% chance of returning a 250% gain
versus an Investment B that has a 95% chance of earning 9%, most
investors would choose Investment A.

However, because Investment A may exhibit 50% more volatility
than Investment B, the great majority of advisors would steer
their client away from the former investment into the latter
one. In fact, this is exactly what even “prestigious” firms that
cater to ultra high net-worth clients do because they allow
misinformed, uneducated investors dictate the rules of
engagement to them, and they would much rather appease such
powerful, important people with slow,minimal gains rather than
empower and enlighten them and boost their returns like never
before. They would choose to steer them away because they
present the investment opportunities incorrectly, merely telling
their client that while they could earn 350% from Investment A
there was also a very realistic probability that they could lose
$300,000, and that shooting for the slow but steady $90,000 a
year is much better for them.

If you are thinking to yourself, “That makes absolutely no
sense?” Why would firms not earn 20% a year for their clients if
they could instead of 8% a year? The answer is because the
overwhelming majority of investment firms, no matter how
prestigious their brand, are merely highly glorified sales
machines. They fail to convince clients to invest in phenomenal
investment opportunities that sometimes arise like Investment A
because in order for Investment A to be a moderate risk, very
high reward investment, it must be entered at a low risk entry
point so that the probability of being down $300,000 at any give
time would be reduced from perhaps 50% to 20%.

And that even if their timing is not optimal, then a firm must
educate the client that as long as they don’t panic when they
are down, the odds are still extremely high that they will earn
a 250% or better gain. However, the greatest factor that
determines why firms will not seek this strategy is time.
Engaging in much better strategies such as these for their
clients would take massive amounts of time in client education
and enough time in research that the amount of assets gathered
would take a serious hit.

So because it is not in a firm’s interest to engage in
activities that maximize portfolio returns (unless it is their
own institutional portfolio), instead, we have Chief Investment
Officers at top investment firms making statements like,
“"Generally they [the richest of Americans] want to see
prudently managed growth without a lot of surprises, which is
why we emphasize diversification." Again, this is a sales &
marketing campaign statement, not an aboveboard statement about
how to make money for clients.

If clients are uncomfortable with strategies that would
actually built great wealth for them instead of producing
mediocre or subpar returns, their discomfort only originates
from the fact that the largest investment firms have been
deceiving their clients, just as Jim Cramer had deceived the
thundering sheep herd for years, about the realities of building
wealth. This discomfort originates solely from the fact that he
or she has been kept in the dark for so long. Thus, we have a
misinformation-driven cauldron of investors making bad
investment decisions that exists today. In 2007, you’ll still
find Chief Investment Officers of very well known firms making
ridiculous statement that investors need to invest at least 50%
of their stock portfolio in U.S. stocks if they wish to grow
their portfolios exponentially.

How are they going to grow their portfolios exponentially with
more than half of their stocks in a stock market (the U.S.) that
has NEVER been the best performing market in the past 25 years
(even among developed stock markets)? How will they grow their
portfolios exponentially by buying stocks in market that trades
in what is quite possibly the worst currency on earth among
developed markets (the U.S. dollar)? Yes I know that when the
U.S. dollar shows a brief spike in strength as is likely to
happen soon (I’m writing this article in April, 2007), that many
people will question what I am saying, but this is only again
because they are victims to the mass deception mind-games of the
investment industry. I suppose if planning to earn better than
subpar returns in your stock portfolio is engaging in risky
behavior as Chief Investment Officers of various firms claim,
then yes, I whole-heartedly endorse engaging in risky behavior.

And because so many people, yes, even those considered quite
wealthy, fall victim to the preaching of investment industry
demagogues, there is a second mistake that many rich investors
will soon make. Another survey of wealthy U.S. investors
uncovered that a large percentage of investors with investment
assets of over a million do not employ any type of investment
advisor but plan to do so soon giving the increasingly gloomy
nature of the U.S. stock markets. To that, this is what I have
to say. Making money in difficult markets is ten times more
difficult than making money in bull markets. If investors
believe that it will be increasingly more difficult to make
money in U.S. stock markets, but yet top investment firms in the
U.S. continue to preach that more than half of your portfolio
should be in U.S. stocks (mostly to cover their respective
firm’s inadequate coverage of emerging markets), how is the
hiring one of these men possibly going to improve these
investors’ future performance outlook?

But there is an EXTREMELY important distinction to be made
here. What I’ve written above applies to the behavior and
mindset of some of the richest people in America, but not THE
very richest people in America. The very richest people in
America, those you might categorize as the world’s ultra-rich,
possess a very different mindset and behavior set than those
that are just rich. The ultra-rich have positioned their
portfolios extremely differently from how the rich people
discussed above have positioned their portfolios. The reason why
articles regarding their behavior and investment decisions are
virtually non-existent is because they don’t grant interviews
and they don’t want people to know what they are doing. But I’ve
investigated what they are doing, and trust me, it is nothing
remotely similar to the behavior of wealthy investors described
by Northern Trust and other investment firms.

If you would like to find out why the ultra-rich always manage
their own money or are able to find the 1 in a million
consultant truly capable of providing them the returns they
desire, consult our resource of “101 Reasons Why Managing Your
Own Money is the Only Way to Build Wealth.” Even if the
ultra-wealthy have someone managing their money for them, the
only way they were capable of finding this 1 in a million
financial consultant was due to the fact that if they had to,
they could manage their own money successfully as well. Only by
first fully understanding the most successful investment
strategies themselves were they able to identify an advisor
capable of employing similar strategies. However, a great
majority of ultra-wealthy continue to handle and make their own
investment decisions. And that is precisely why they are among
the elite.

The Science Of Getting Rich - Getting Rich The Scientific Way? By Vladimir Murray

If you pay attention to the people around you what you will
find is that there are far too many persons who desire to be
rich, or to get rich and at the same time believe they will
never get rich, for whatever reason. Usually what it really
boils down to is the mere fact that they do not know what to do
to get rich, or they may know some things but not others. They
are unaware of the principles involved in getting rich and thus
by extension the science of getting rich.

When Wallace D. Wattles release his book ‘the Science of
Getting Rich’ in 1910, little did he know the impact it would
have on many persons lives almost one hundred years later.
According to Wattles (and I totally agree with him) there is a
science of getting rich and in order to be rich every man must
adhere to its principles.

Now what is the science, what are the principles of getting
rich? The major principle, I believe, is a natural law which
states that ‘like causes always produces like effects’.
Therefore the people in this world who are rich, become and
remain rich because they are doing things in a particular way
whether consciously or unconsciously. Those who are not doing
things in this particular way, will remain poor no matter how
hard or how long they work or how capable they are. This
principle eliminates the excuse that the environment is why many
are not rich. You see too many persons from poor backgrounds are
rich or are becoming rich for this excuse to be true. It also
eliminates the idea that doing things a particular way is only
for persons with talent. No, no, no this can’t be it for there
are many, many persons who possess great talent who continue to
be poor, whilst others with little or no talent are getting rich
every day. Let me repeat getting rich is the result of doing
things a particular way. So if you are a plumber and other
plumbers in your area are getting rich from plumbing while you
are not then it will be because you are not doing things in the
same way that the other plumbers are doing them.

The next principle is one that has over the last year or so,
and still is, been getting a lot of attention. It is called The
law of attraction and it has been made famous by Rhonda Byrnes'
book and DVD ‘The Secret’ which was featured on CNN and Oprah
among other media programs. This principle states ‘Thoughts
Become Things’. You see our world and everything in it first
began with a thought. The thoughts that we think are emitted
vibrations broadcasted into the universe, attracting to them
vibrations of the same frequency which manifest what we come to
see and experience in our physical world as our current reality.
Man cannot shape a thing until he has first, thought that thing.

So if a person has the thought of a kitchen of a certain design
and this thought is in line with the same frequency in the
universe, it may not cause the kitchen to just instantly appear,
but it would set in motion events and creative processes that
will bring about the building of the kitchen to the specific
design. For this reason it is important for us to communicate
our thoughts to the universe if we are to cause the creation, or
formation of the thing we think about.

The third principle is ‘The Law of Gratitude’ which is nothing
more than giving thanks to God for his gifts. The more grateful
we are as we focus our mind on God when good things come our way
the more good things we will receive and the more quickly they
will come. Gratitude draws our mind into closer link with God
and His blessing. Many are kept in poverty by their lack of
gratitude. If you consistently and truthfully express your
gratitude and it is strong enough then God’s reaction will also
be consistent, strong and continuous. The things you want always
be moving toward you. When you live your life with gratitude you
will find yourself focused on only the best and in turn this
will bring to you only the best. Waste no time thinking or
talking about the faults and flaws of others or even in you.
Work instead on cultivating the habit of being grateful for
every good thing that comes to you and give God thanks.

The fourth principle is that of Visualization of your desire
and its attainment. You cannot transmit an idea unless you have
it yourself. Visualization is about forming and holding a clear
and definite mental picture of what it is you want. If it is you
desire a brand new car, then it’s not good enough to visualize
any old car. You must be more specific, in fact be as specific
as possible. So instead you must see in your minds eye the car
you want, the make and model, how it feels on the road, the
colour, size of the wheel, its features, and even how you will
feel driving it.

You must see the thing you want as they already exists, take
possession of it in faith believing it is already yours and do
not waiver for a moment in the faith that it is real.

The fifth principle is Personal Action. This arguably the
second most important principle in the Science of Getting Rich
for without action all your thoughts will mean and attain
nothing. You must take definite action now. Your personal
action, however, must be of such that you can rightly receive
what you want when it comes. It makes no sense to desire
something and not take some action towards its attainment, this
will only lead to frustration leaving you feeling discouraged.
There is a quote which says “He who desires but acts not breeds
pestilence”. The way you think brings things to you but your by
actions you receive them. You must act in a particular way such
that you can appropriate what is yours when it comes to you. It
does not matter what your situation is, whether it be favourable
or not, you must not delay taking action. Wait not for
favourable conditions. When you take personal action, do so with
no thought of yesterday or tomorrow as your present action will
be divided in your mind making you ineffective. So put your
whole mind and body into the present action. Take action where
you are now.

The last principle is that of Getting in the Right Business.
You will do best in that business for which your abilities are
best suited. That means it will be easier to succeed if you are
in a business for which you are well equipped with the skills
and mental tools. Bear in mind, however, that you can get rich
in any business even if you do not possess the necessary talents
because you can develop the skills needed as you go along. Also
you can get rich most satisfactorily if you do that which you
want to do. Doing what you want to do is at the core of what
life is about. Now if you are in a business or situation that
you do not want to be in but you have ‘no choice’ due to some
obligation or responsibility like children to support, then do
what you have to do. You can make the doing of it pleasing by
knowing (reminding yourself) that it is making it possible for
you to get to the doing of what you want to do. By making
constructive use of the business you are already in and working
in a particular way, you can get into the business you want.
Always start from where you are.

The science of getting rich gives you the courage and the power
to handle any circumstance that may obstruct your progress
towards getting rich. Once you follow and obey the principles
you cannot fail to get rich. Practice the instructions and you
will surely get rich and you will do so in exact proportion to
the definiteness of your vision, the fixity of your purpose, the
steadiness of your faith and the depth of your gratitude.
