business principles, stores

Remember that WalMart started somewhere too.
1. Open a store, focus on the product, worker and customer, in that order!
2.Save!   spend less then you need (my shoes are falling apart but I don't need new ones yet).
3.Invest in your business with your earnings, eventually build another store and repeat until you can hire someone to replace you.
4. Small business laws are difficult in U.S. but if you have the will you're going to be successful! 
5. There is a free lawyer at every local town hall, go see him for advice!


good luck!

How to invest $5 for the maximum return

I remember reading Tina Sellig's (executive director of the Stanford Technology Ventures Program) book- What I wish I knew when I was 20. (I don't know Tina, though I wish I did, and I love her book.)

She gave her students the exact same problem. Here are her words, with my emphasis. If you don't have time to read the whole thing, just skim and read the words in bold.

"What would you do to earn money if all you had was five dollars and two hours? This is the assignment I gave students in one of my classes at Stanford University, as part of the Stanford Technology Ventures Program...

 Each of fourteen teams received an envelope with five dollars of “seed funding” and was told they could spend as much time as they wanted planning. However, once they cracked open the envelope, they had two hours to generate as much money as possible. I gave them from Wednesday afternoon until Sunday evening to complete the assignment.

Then, on Sunday evening, each team had to send me one slide describing what they had done, and on Monday afternoon each team had three minutes to present their project to the class. They were encouraged to be entrepreneurial by identifying opportunities, challenging assumptions, leveraging the limited resources they had, and by being creative.

What would you do if you were given this challenge? When I ask this question to most groups, someone usually shouts out, “Go to Las Vegas,” or “Buy a lottery ticket.” This gets a big laugh.. These folks would take a significant risk in return for a small chance at earning a big reward.

The next most common suggestion is to set up a car wash or lemonade stand, using the five dollars to purchase the starting materials. This is a fine option for those interested in earning a few extra dollars of spending money in two hours.

 But most of my students eventually found a way to move far beyond the standard responses. They took seriously the challenge to question traditional assumptions—exposing a wealth of possibilities—in order to create as much value as possible.

How did they do this? Here’s a clue: the teams that made the most money didn’t use the five dollars at all. They realized that focusing on the money actually framed the problem way too tightly. They understood that five dollars is essentially nothing and decided to reinterpret the problem more broadly: What can we do to make money if we start with absolutely nothing?

They ramped up their observation skills, tapped into their talents, and unlocked their creativity to identify problems in their midst—problems they experienced or noticed others experiencing—problems they might have seen before but had never thought to solve. These problems were nagging but not necessarily at the forefront of anyone’s mind. By unearthing these problems and then working to solve them, the winning teams brought in over $600, and the average return on the five dollar investment was 4,000 percent! If you take into account that many of the teams didn’t use the funds at all, then their financial returns were infinite.

So what did they do? All of the teams were remarkably inventive. One group identified a problem common in a lot of college towns—the frustratingly long lines at popular restaurants on Saturday night. The team decided to help those people who didn’t want to wait in line. They paired off and booked reservations at several restaurants. As the times for their reservations approached, they sold each reservation for up to twenty dollars to customers who were happy to avoid a long wait.

As the evening wore on, they made several interesting observations. First, they realized that the female students were better at selling the reservations than the male students, probably because customers were more comfortable being approached by the young women. They adjusted their plan so that the male students ran around town making rese...

A friend did the following:

1. Visited an estate sale, shopped carefully, for one great item.
2. Negotiated down to $5.
3. Sold it on eBay for $25.
4. Repeated the process, using $25.
5. Has been buying and selling for just 6 months.

Has made $14,000 so far on a single $5 investment.

Edit: After re-reading this it sounds a bit like those get rich quick schemes. Not the case, quite the opposite. This is a hard working person and someone I know personally, and that money was made over 6 months, not over one month.'

How to spend 1000 dollars and become rich for 14 years

1000 dollars well invested!
 $89 for the first four and then $100 for future ones.  The full patent that the company will file for you will last for 14 years.

Recap:
$356 + $600 = 10 provisional patents
$44 left over

What to do with these patents.
Idea = simple cardboard prototype + phonecall to the company + skype meeting with the deciding person (5 minutes)= as long as you sold your idea you're set for the next 14 years.

To learn exactly how to accomplish all this just read Stephen Key's book "one simple idea"

As always goodluck!

Read everything, every day

I can't bring myself to read a lot of books but I read hundreds of articles, sometimes even in one day.

Basically articles are condensed books, usually the reason that I can't make myself read a book is:
1. They over explain concepts
2. I know everything they're trying to teach me
3. The book just takes easy to long

An article will be short (writers that write weekly posts don't want to spend time writing pointless information) if you're there you probably know a bunch on the subject already.

Articles are usually short enough to skim so you know if the information is relevant and new.

Today I once got reminded that starting a venture is the most important. seriously just do it!

http://zenhabits.net/small-online-business/

I choose to adopt

There are so many children that aren't being taken care of, instead of having my own children I choose to give a childhood to children that need one.

It will be harder but most important things are.

I will have new things to write about when I start writing again.

china- how to speak to a supplier

Alibaba.com is a great place to buy resale items, group buys and samples.

What is a sample? A sample is one of anything.
 Even if the company isn't selling samples young can still buy them if you know how to speak with a business.

Tips.
Always say hello and I look forward to your reply.
Always speak in a simple way so the sales person can understands you (most don't speak very good English so unless you speak mandarin Chinese speak simple.

I recently spoke with a company that sells gaming laptops on alibaba .
they immediately wanted to know how many I wanted to buy.
 This didn't work for me since if I was going to buy for resale I wanted to actually judge the quality of a sample.

First i ask so it's a conversation not a demand.

"Hi, can I order a sample to see if it meets my standards."

Then I tell them that they decided to allow a sample by asking not if but how much. Specific questions and no "the" because it doesn't exist in Chinese.

"How much will laptop cost?
How much will shipping cost?"

bottom line
Sometimes you can get a free sample but most of the time you will have to buy it and pay for the shipping.
The sample will cost less then store price but more then wholesale.

good luck!

When I was a 13 year old boy, my friends from school took me to a fertile orchard on the edge of town.

They assured me that it was one of their parents land so I naively believed their story.
   
I climbed to the top of a pear tree and threw down three ripe pears and headed for the last one to eat.

While I was thusly occupied, an old lady came out of the only house  in the orchard and started yelling at me to come down.
I came down and started asking what the problem was.
She responded with a blow with one of her crutches to my right leg.
Still holding the pear I kept explaining that I didn't know it was her land, when she finally heard me she believed me and apologized. I offered to give back the pear but she let me keep it saying I was a good boy.

That pear was the best tasting pear I have ever eaten and all because I was honest. Not all stories end this way.

Once I was cussed out for being beaten up but that's another story.

The process
Research the subject, articles on growing tomatoes rewritten and combined.

Start a website or sell on Amazon,
ebay, google play, etc.

Write about a problem with a solution, write about the solution and sell!

I'm going to write a eBooks and so should you!

A book I'm reading and I think you should too

The six figure second income.

This book might sound like a sham but it's not. I read 64pages today and so far it spoke of fears we have as entrepreneurs, why they're invalid and of a few ways to make money the smart way.
I  also shattered my screen so I'm interested in how my reading will suffer.

an shen bux chen

Short review
I've been taking this focus and emotion stimulant and I have to say for $10 a bottle these pills are the best.

problems
I use to have problems with anger and depression but after two days I had no problems even reducing my dose from 9 to three pills day!

Reaction
I was very skeptical at first no side effects from an herbal supplement?

A little bit over a year I have to say that I am now more focused, never angry and actually more awake.

What this herb mix is used for
Bipolar, suicidal depression and any thing mood related.

The simple writing technique for the nonwriter

This one is a bit harder for the people that have tried writing before.

Start from the finale (end) and then start discovering (not inventing) the story that led to this the last sentence. Write the story sentence by sentence always going back.
After you finish just put the sentences in the right order.

  An example of my writing.

As I lay there wailing for death I though of my love Nadia.
I thought the monster was dead but I was wrong and My fears of were confirmed when I saw the tip of a sword sticking out of my chest.

this took me 30 seconds, imagine what I could do I'd I tried!


Another way and another example.
Write your book in eight parts each part represented by a word then sentence then paragraph and chapter.

Example

childhood. Love. Disaster. Fight. Failure. Success. Love found. Ending.

My childhood was a happy one, till everything started falling apart.

I met this wonderful girl and we spent many quiet days together.

My love left and I was left alone.

I fought the policeman with all my
strength but he would not let go!

I was thrown in jail like so many before me.

I got out eight months later for good behavior and found a man that taught me all that I now know.

Unexpectedly my childhood friend and only love walked through the door to my café.

I asked her to Mary me and we spent the rest of our lives together.

Now that you have techniques and examples just write your book!
As always good luck!

Simple recipe for any meat that i made up

Take the meat (I'll be making chicken), cut into pan sized pieces.

Marinade.

 Mix all of this together in a metal bowl and add the chicken.

Let it sit in the marinade for half an hour to four hours (no more).

Heat the pan on high (for sixty seconds or untill you can sprinkle water on it and it evaporates instantly) add oil ,salt, and proper, mix, add the chicken, brown.
  Add marinade, cover.
cook for 45 minutes on medium low..
you're done!

Honey as a money making product

Now raising bees is a hard business but it's much more lucrative and easy I'd you do it my way.

Honey mixed with herbs makes the herb eight times more potent.
This honey can be sold for for times more.

My way of making honey worth ten times what plain honey is worth.

Build a long five hundred square foot beehive, leave space in the center to install a hater, mix raw honey with the fresh roundup herb, feed it to the bees and viola! Year long prediction of honey in b many hives.

the building needs to be five hundred square feet so you don't need a permit to build it.

good luck!

Writing eBooks for an income

So you want to or have written a book, you could party for publishing and maybe you'll earn a lot of money.

A better way

Publish with Amazon
Amazon requires a lot of information that you don't want to provide and it's it's quite a complicated process but they do have many customers.

Publish with google books
Much simpler and Google has many costumers now.

The easiest way
Publish your book on your blog.
Write a book (I could write a book on business), set up a PayPal account and get someone to program a sale part for your website.

Hope that all the current or future writers take advantage of these three ways and make some money!

My blog, other blogs,

Take some time to think every day, best two hours before bed (two-one hours before bed the brain needs to star winding down).

Sorry about the short post but I'm "Really busy today".

the "F it" factor or "the ultimate way to get past laziness and difficulty"

Every time I'd get into a situation that I didn't feel safe in I would get through by saying f it.

F it means  something else to me than it does to you. To me f it means "screw fear".

  Every time I talk to a girl "f it", every time I do something scary "f it".
If I'm to lazy to work out F it!

I've reprogrammed my brain to do hard things by seeing them as challenges. Everytime I said f it and done something hard whatever it was always became easier.

How you can do it!

Don't want to do the dishes? F it.
Every time you say f it and do whatever you don't want to your brain associates with ease because of f it.

I hope this will make you a stronger person.

Two ways to develop a photographic memory

I'm sure you've all thought of photographic memory and of how cool it would be to have one.

Well I will give you two ways to develop a photographic memory.

The military's way

Print out one paragraph of whatever.
sit down in the bathroom in a way that you have one hand on the light switch and the other on the page.

You need to be sitting and you need a bright light.

Wait one minute for your eyes to adjust to the darkness, flip on the light and flip it off as fast as you can.
Do you see that after image?
That's your visual memory working.

Repeat this for five minutes every day for va month and you will have a photographic memory. If you skip one day the time of learning this will be extended by a week.

The second way to develop a photographic memory.

Look at anything close your eyes and try to remember features about that thing.        After an amount of time you won't have to close your eyes anymore.

Good luck!

How to crowd fund your business and start up.

The first step in crowd funding is choosing the website that's going to serve as your connector with the public.
Here's a visual of how to choose and everything else.



All that advice is good but not perfect
so I will fill you in.


Use fiverr.com to hire people to
write your project, market it, send it to large online news websites.


Have great information to send and they will do a better job!


Second, I know that some of you will be to embarrassed to send your friends and family to your fund raiser but no way around it you have to because this is where most of your fundraising will come from.


One last tip, make a good video. This is the most important thing you can do and no way around it you have to.

Thanks for reading my blog and
good luck!

I did a little bit of research

A successful business

  Businesses that focus on the profit have employees that are less happy and are less successful than businesses that focus on their employees and quality of the product that they produce.

Dating

Yes you can learn the tricks that will get you into bed with any woman but you will "not" be happy.

You will lie not only to the lady but also to yourself. The best way to hit on a girl is being the best version of yourself.

    Hit on girls way out of your league and you will be a more confident person, your life satisfaction level will soar.

So get out there and get rejected!

Using your invention as a business base

Inventing is easy (I have over 200 inventions), bringing those inventions to market is hard.

Here is how I would bring an invention to market.

invent the product.

Do a little research to see if your product would sell.

Do a product and patent search (lots of articles on this out there).

Search alibaba.com for a company that can manufacture your product.

sell on eBay, amazon or other.

There you go!

good luck!

One way to take the old and useless items from your house and make bank!

First how to find things that will sell

Look through DIYs that make plenty of money like pinecone painting.
With this one project you can pickup and sell pinecones on eBay.


You could also sell used toilet paper rolls 20 for $16 I think on eBay.

Now research what's selling, buy it at the dollar store and sell on eBay for a profit!

good luck!

Here's one of my ideas that many of you could make plenty of money on

So you've heard of pallet upcycling into furniture but have you heard of pvc furniture? Now take it a step further, what if you slid pool noodles over the pvc? And attached the noodles with hot glue?

Boom outdoor furniture.

I have one step more, if I choose not to use this idea then I'll reveal this step up if I never use it.

Good luck!

How to make bank on tees

I was thinking of business ideas and a simple one came to mind, what if I designed a few cool and original logos, print them through a company like vistaprint and sold them on ebay or some other site.

I would make bank!

  But I'm sure that people already do this but I could always do what they do better,.

You can sell the tees on amazon with a description as the title, great photos and good price.

 Never use someone else's logo or design unless you have written consent and a signature!

use one of these sites:
vistaprint
spreadshirt
4prints
polivore
workwareuk

An explanation of my idea sharing.  I give you ideas that I might use in the future but they're ideas that there's a lot of room for, I never give away the ideas that are so original that I'd lose them.

Good luck!

more businesses you can start at home

virtual assistant.
A virtual assistant is a secretary that works with a small or medium size businesses through the internet.

Jewelry
This is one that I do, I've limited myself to leather and metal.

 The best way to earn money from this is to buy second hand tools and materials (this way you get everything you need for a great price).

Take a month to make new and unusual jewelry.

Choose the jewelry that is both nice and simple to make.

Start an account on etsy, eBay or some unknown sellers website.

Only make jewelry that you have orders for (otherwise you'll loose money).

Your titles have to be descriptive, instead of "unicorn necklace" call it " white porcelain necklace with leather cord" this will bring more buyers to your store.

The legal side of starting a business

You can always find a way to avoid your dream (I know I've done it for two years), but if you know how to do it then you're being lazy (that includes me).

      This post will take away your excuse , you won't be able to count on your ignorance to keep you away from starting a business ever again, no excuses!

1. Don't over think it! An excuse you might have is "I need to figure every detail out" or "I need to get a follow on the internet so I can start with success in my field", both excuses and I could come up with more.

2. Get your EIN number(Employer Identification Number), if you don't plan on hiring anyone get one anyway, it's free and it will hide your SSN"social security number".

3. Operate under your name or operate under a different name later (it's very easy) start with your own name.

4. Get a business license, use your EIN
to keep your SSN safe. Don't worry about the income estimate "it's just an estimate".

5. Don't list property that you already own, report anything you buy for your business (I think you can take dose expenses and lower your taxes by that much). City hall has lawyers that are paid by taxes so if you want to get some free lawyer advice get an appointment!

6. Ask what business permits are required and get them!

7. Obtain a certificate of resale, this will allow you to add sales tax to your price.   If you sell things get a seller's permit.

8. Get a business bank account, keeps you from getting into tax trouble and gets you a card that will give you a name to do business under and keeps track of your tax expenses.
Get the account from a credit union (cheaper). Get business cards.

Recap.
Don't make excuses, don't over think this, EIN, business name, subtract business expenses from your taxes,
business permits, certificate of resale and Seller's permit, get a business bank account (credit union) and business cards.

Now get out there, you have no excuses left plus it will take about a day to do all this!

How I tought myself how to control my dyslexia

This post is going tone different because I'm writing it so dyslexic people can visualize it properly

I was sitting in my seat in a plane flying to South Africa, my flight would take 16 hours.   I sat staring at the touch panel built into the headrest in front of me. I touched it to turn it on and began to look at the video categories, all the videos were in the movies at that time, watching them for sixteen hours. My brain had too many images going through it.
I found out how to put my visual thinking on hold and have my brain think with it's subconscious, that's how I think now.

if you have any suggestions on how to I can Improve this post then send your suggestion to zeronimo14@gmail.com

Unique ideas

Anyone that wants to make bank in a private industry needs to think of an original Ideal with little to no competition

Here are a few of mine.
bleach second hand tee's and sell them online, make painted eggs (or eggshells, make jewelry, pottery, write eBooks (if you can, do it), carve wood, make kids toys (weak but fun), start a show on YouTube, find something that can be recycled into a product.

That's my list, the things in it are as good as you make them so work hard!

sorry about skipping a post but I did have two the day before yesterday.

Further plans

I will start making videos on every post so you don't have to read them but that will be in over a week.

  Wish me luck as I have for you multiple times! :)

Update
Sorry, this will happen in the future but I don't have a camera so...

Further research on the last post

I don't believe we should pay taxes but we do. I researched my sources some more and discovered that most of what I wrote applies to Illinois (yeah bummer).

I  do know legal ways to avoid paying property taxes but I won't write a post about them because no one cares and almost no one reads my blog, in fact I write this blog because it forces me to learn more about business.

 Why do I write daily posts? Because it's the only way I will not give up.

My story.
I was born in Poland, I have dual citizenship and I decided that I knew more about law in the USA so I decided to start my business there.
I got my GED after 6 years of learning whatever I wanted, even with dyslexia I passed all five tests on the first try after studying for five months.
Screw school! am I right?!

Taxes and why I don't pay them

All of these ideas have been researched by me but not tested, I'm not a lawyer so do your own research! 

Since I have dual citizenship I can choose to pay taxes in Poland or the USA. I earn bellow 50000 a year so I don't have an obligation to pay taxes in Poland so I don't pay them.

Now legal reasons not to pay income tax (the next post is about property taxes).

First "why you should ignore IRS agents.

IRS agents are employees of the federal bank (it's a European privately owned bank), an IRS agent is legally called an " administrative clerk" , no enforcement, knowledge of the law (law in most cases).

If an IRS agent tells you you owe money say "I plead the fifth " the fifth is a decline to testify amendment (never lie to a federal official) you can also say "I don't remember". If you file income tax you wave your fifth amendment right.

An IRS badge is a non enforcement pocket commission, it allows the requiring and receiving of information.

 The IRS can require"Levy" of any government official. They can only legally tax the government workers.

A few facts "The federal bank collects 36 million dollars an hour in taxes" (more now but I only have this number).

"No taxes go towards running the country" Ronald Reagan 1985.

Property taxes pay for roads, schools, Etc.

 Corporate taxes pay for the military.                       

An easy but risky way to make money

First get a reseller certificate (shouldn't be more then $50)

Find a company that will buy a large amount of a cheap but good product.

Set up a deal with the product company and store

Get the company to trust you

Get the payment

order and send product

Your earnings are based on the amount of product you sell and the difference between the wholesale price and the store buying price.

One variation of this business is getting the reseller certificate, getting a loan, buying the product and selling on Amazon, you will have to advertise on other sites for to work.

update

I've written this blog everyday for 33 days, gained seven daily views and and run out of ideas for posts.

Send me things to write about but for now I'll write about everything that comes to mind.

forcing yourself to become an optimist!

Being an optimist is not something that you are or are not, optimism is a life choice that I choose two years ago when I got sick with MS (don't feel bad for me, it made me a better person).

Optimism is deeply linked to happiness and the reverse is true, being thankful will make you happier.

To achieve happiness you need to stop wanting things period, I mean stop thinking "I need it" and start thinking "it would be nice to have that", one is forceful and one keeps things in perspective.

The next one is being thankful, every evening think of all the things that are good in your life
 " place to stay" "food" "friends" "your family".

Stop wanting what others have.
Make it a goal to earn whatever you want instead.

There is one object that I want, my friend has it and it's awesome! It's a metal phone case that has padding and it's waterproof.  I don't want to steal it I don't want him to give it to me, I want to earn one. I'm happy he has one but I don't need one so I'm going to put it on my goal list.

Please listen to this article, because it will truly make your life better.

Creating a manufacturing business

There was a man in recent years who invented a business recycling bicycle chain bracelets, he saw the opportunity for free chains from bike shops (they give the chains away for free).
  He invented a bracelet that looked good, was made from free materials and would sell well.

find something that's free

 invent a product that you can make from that thing

get that thing, build your business and hire a manager.

Good luck!

Fiverr

fiverr.com is one of the simplest sites to sell any talent (especially writing).
 If you write, program or sing you can earn on fiverr, independence is at hand and within reach for you.
If you're too afraid to take the leap just repeat "failure is an opportunity for learning".

Ways to raise money for business

Easiest
Make a list of anyone you know who you can ask for money. Write a number you think they will lend to you to start your business. The reason you have to choose people you know is that it will motivate you, and let down if you do not succeed.

A bit harder
Sell all your things and invest in your business.

Harder
Borrow from a bank (I will never do this), you can loose everything keep that in your head.

Hard
Save, save and save, 2k is good, 4 is better and 6 is great.

Hardest
save 500, go to town hall and get a business license, buy and sell (in stores if you can).
keep going or take the leap.

Hope this helped.

The key aspects of running a business

Stick with it, be patient.
alot of people think "the harder I work, the faster it will go" well that can work but it's better to take your time and make your business stronger.
people have always flourished by thinking in groups so always ask someone to help you think through your problem (a mentor).
Take care of yourself.
what's the point of getting rich and not being able to spend it?


Work less accomplish more (sleep 8hrs a night)
build an advisory group (basically a think tank) get yourself a good mentor


Spend less then you want to but not less then you need too.
eat fruit and vegetables everyday (remember to get good quality)


















be people who would gladly spend nights and weekends with, whether or not it’s for work. Early on, hire generalists, not specialists (those come later).
Likewise, find investors who believe in you and your vision. Don’t just work with an investor because of their checkbook or their “value add”. Work with investors you actually like.
Life is too short to work with people you don’t like.
Think Hard About Culture Early
Even if you assemble the best group of people in the world for your startup, a bad culture will mess it all up.
Every company will have a culture that works for them and your job as the founder is to figure out what that is. You should really dedicate time before or shortly after you hire the first employees defining what the culture is. It’s easy to set a culture early, but extremely difficult later (even if you’re under 10 people).
Communicate and Be Transparent With Your Team
They are in this with you too. By making sure everyone on your team is aware of everything going on in the company (both the good and bad), you are building a very important foundation of trust that is vital for any organization.
I highly encourage having weekly all-hands meetings, as well as frequent 1-1s with everyone on your team until size makes it not feasible. Effective

passion and my story of doing what I love

I've started saying how to find your passion but I haven't said anything about how I found my passions so here is my story.

My love of helping others started from my other passion, making jewelry.
  I met a family and I could see that they were hard working, smart and honest.
 One of them was J, now Jay needed my help, he was a very smart guy but he felt insignificant in his family so I started spending time with him and talking, I think his acceptance of me helped me a great deal too.
J got help from me and now he knows that he should base his identity not on me or his family but on God and his choices, I gave him and his brothers some of my jewelry and it felt so much better then selling it, it's fine if they loose it, it's theirs.

I got into jewelry by making my first necklace, it turned out really great and pushed me to make more I found that making men's jewelry gave me pleasure so now I want to start making a business with my passion.

I'm an original thinker, that's why I want to help others to start their business on here for free and in person for 10% of their earnings for the first five years.

I want to be independent from work 🏢 so alongside starting business' I want to patent and license products, this way I will do what I love what I do, help others, be creative and be independent.

To be an entrepreneur you must think outside the box

Grind (hard work) will get you far but a more important thing to have is grind. Grit will help you work hard and succeed but grind is the creative bit of you that will give you creative ideas on how to use a difficulty to your advantage, improve your business in a creative way and make your business above the rest.


Grind over Grit!

Why I decided to build a series of small businesses instead of large ones.

The government will control us more and more by building many business' I won't loose all of them when everything goes south (pardon the pun Texas).

smaller is easier. If I build a small business I can hire a manager and start a new one.

less is more. By building smaller I can make each business focus on quality over quantity.

I hope you enjoyed my post, good luck!

Free business advice

Every town has a town hall, in that town hall is a lawyer that you have the legal right to use! (you pay his salary through taxes), ask him any questions about starting a business (after you have an appointment). Another thing that's at town hall is a meeting for business minded people (depends on the town), if that didn't convince you then you need some motivational training. Good luck!

How to find your business passion

Think about what you have experience in.
This could be a hobby or a job writ it down.

Think of more then one hobby or job, now think about the list you wrote down and figure out which of these are most pleasurable too you. Now figure out what these things have in common, figure out what job or business you can do with the abilities that you discovered.

Good luck with your passion!

how to be fasionable as aa man in and our of business

For some reason I've always had a great fashion sense.
Here's how I dress, I choose mostly dark colors
and then I wear one colorful thing for contrast usually read (a bandana works if you wear it like a bracelet).

In business I always wear a dress shirt (any color) ironed jeans, a watch and necklace.

Originality

when you use these styles always remember that your style has to fit you not the other way around.

this is just a guideline, make it your own!

Passion and it's role in business

My opinion on pre to high school


I believe that the school system is very flawed, teachers don't explain the why, they explain the because that's the way it is, it's not their fault it's the way they have to teach.


Most schools teach once (very badly) and remind (memorization) four times, this system works well for tests but not for actual learning.


Passion is a tool
Passion is what drives us, motivates us and pushes us to greatness. Don't go to college, build your passion and let it push you to greatness!

The power of "because"

If you want to become rich you have too become persuasive.


To get other people to do what you want and sound credible? Use the word "because"
One of the best ways to get other people to do what you want them to? And to sound credible? Use the word "because. In 1998 Ellen Langer (a psychologist at Harvard) completed a study on "because" asking people to cut in line to the copy machine. Learn the power of "because" and
if you use it right you will become rich.
Langer tested 3 different ways of asking people to let her cut ahead. Here’s what she found:
Way 1: Excuse me, I have 5 pages. May I use the Xerox machine?
•Result: 60% said YES.
Way 2: Excuse me, I have 5 pages. May I use the Xerox machine because I’m in a rush?
•Result: 94% said YES.
Adding the magic word because, immediately boosted the effectiveness of her request by a remarkable amount.
Way 3: Excuse me, I have 5 pages. May I use the Xerox machine because I have to make some copies?
•Result: 93% said YES.
The word because is so powerful that it didn't even matter if the reasons provided were compelling.
I recently conducted my own little modern day Xerox study. I sent out 2 emails, asking people to respond to a simple question.
E-mail 1:  Please respond.
E-mail 2: Please respond, because I need an answer. 
•Result: Email #2 got double the response!
So, if you want to be rich: be specific in your assertions -- many people will let you get ahead if you just ask. Then say that magic word because -- a larger majority are likely to say yes.
Because people want reasons for doing what they are doing, persuasive people are able to jump ahead and get rich. Almost any reason will do.

wht the article will not be about business today

I've been having problems with the relationship with my mother.
guess it's because I haven't wanted to live with my family for the past two years now but my Lyme keeps me with them. My mother had a one sided argument with me yesterday morning and the stress it caused in my neck and shoulders hasn't left yet!

But enough about my life tomorrow I will write an article about a magic word "because" and how to open does with this word.

Some clarity on passive income

Passive income is not easy until you start and automate!

First find an area, I'm thinking resale
First the work:
 Find a niche (some untapped market that can be tapped), find a supplier, get samples to test the quality!
 Get orders then order from the supplier (not the other way around!).
Get the best price (usually called the "jobber" price)
After trusting the company set up a deal with amazon (Amazon keeps your stock and sends it out to buyers)
The supplier trusts you by now and sends more stock to Amazon for orders

Boom you're passive income positive!  What to do next?  Start the next passive income setup or sit back for a year or more, third option invest the profit!

And more passive income!

Save by getting rebates when you shop online

When you shop online, go through Shop through Ebates http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?referrerid=Hry7t5nfsGHXOGISmXjTCg%3D%3D.  By buying through this site you save by earning gift cards over time.

Use swagbucks.com earn while you search

By using swagbucks to search you earn points which you can exchange into prizes.                                Google is so great! But earning money for searching is a better way to go if you want to earn money for doing something you already do!

Invest in real estate

To set this passive income you will need to invest at first.                                                This Passive income takes a lot of work to start but the payoff is worth it.                        To set up this passive income buy some land, build some houses and rent them out.    Second option, buy some worn out or run down houses fix them up and rent them out  Third option buy some houses from bankrupt people or a bank,fix them up and rent out.     For a higher earning get your land reclassified as private property and skip the property taxes (I hope I researched it right).

My business plan

There are a lot of variables to  business plans,
some things don't happen some unexpected things do.
So instead of a business plan write a business outline down.

On the side of all this I will be licensing ideas

I have Multiple Sclerosis.

Get better so I can work(80% done)
Save 3k (could windup being 1k or less)

make profit

Move to a cheap fiber internet, electricity, and land city

Get married

Don't get a loan
Many business's have attained greatness by working both hard and smart, with little more then meager living  expenses.

Stop being afraid of the unknown and the future
I'v almost died over a hindered times, I've been in 8 car accidents.  Just a dangerous life, the point I'm trying to make is "if the pros outweigh the cons then go for it!

A business can be started with 300-100 dollars

I knew one guy that started a programming company (biggest in the US now) with very little money, the company is now worth ten's of millions.  Some optional things  are worth a  hell of a lot if you actually do them.

Cash back, reward cards and air miles

Some credit cards pay 5% cash back back every time you make a purchase and give you the savings quarterly or yearly, that is money that could be kept in your pocket!                       Some Reward cards work much the same way, they give back when you spend.  Invest the savings into some passive income and earn more then a return!  

Travel mile cards will pay you mils every time you make a purchase, some travel mile cards have an added bonus for signing up, 5,7 and even 8 thousand air miles are added when you sign up, the con here is that you need to spend different amounts  depending on the card to get the bonus miles but with a large enough family that shouldn't be a problem. 

The last post was a bit short

A little wisdom I came up with and follow.
1. I can do anything with God. 
2.Anything is possible the question is, how can I do it.
3.Question not only why it's impossible but also why it could be possible.
4.Question everything, accept nothing!

Dividends stocks and funds

Dividends are company stocks, the more you own the more you will earn (four times a year!).

If you invest in stocks that pay dividends you'll  earn money every quarter and the more you own the more you will earn!  You could invest in stocks from a company that is going to be great and earn a bunch more in the years to come. Jlab, I can't think of any other one. But try to invest in startups and companies that have long histories of increasing their dividend payouts each year

The risk is pretty low in the short and long term, unless the company goes bankrupt  but if it's a large enough company it will just be bailed out by the government. 

Lending money to earn a passive income

Basically you can lend (invest) money like a bank to people you don't know and Lending Club will take care of the rest, the lowest amount you can invest is $25 (not that much).  

The highest risk loan (risk meaning you could lose some or all of it) will earn 5.49% over one year and the riskiest loan will earn 13.55% over one year. 

So if you have the guts to get into this, then do it!

Post on passive investment, earning and profiting

My first post should be read before you read this one so you get a more rounded understanding of passive incomes.

Savings with higher interest rates

An easy passive income is saving and earning with a bank that has higher interest rates.                   Ally bank may not be the most credible bank but it was rated "Best Bank" by Money Magazine in 2012 so I'll take the plunge.  No monthly fees, no minimum balance and an APY rate of 0.99%, not the highest but you'll save enough that it won't matter much.

CD's 

No not Compact disks, CD's are an investment system for your and every bank.

A CD is a long term savings investment, here's an explanation: 

Time     return      the money made off of $2,000

1 year   (3.00%)         $60            

2 years (3.25%)         $65

3 years (3.50%)         $70

4 years (3.75%)         $75

5 years (4.00%)         $80

If you have some money saved up then invest in this system. 

Resale

To start reselling like a boss (buying from a manufacturer and selling, ebay, amazon, to a store) you need to know:

1.How to get the best price

2.how to decide what to buy

3. how to make it automatic

How to get the best price.

To get the best price get a business account at your bank and a business phone number on your phone (for credibility), buy  sample from the company (to judge the quality). 

 Build a relationship with the company and eventually ask for the "jobber" price (the best price).

How to decide what to buy

Go to amazon.com and find the highest selling page, skim through it, find the thing you can buy cheaper and sell cheaper.  Buy that thing from alibaba.com and import it, you know the rest (sell!).

How to make it automatic
Once you have ironed out all the kinks, set up a deal with your supplier.  The supplier sends a certain amount of the product to amazon, amazon keeps it in their warehouse and send it to the buyer.

Viola! you are now set for life!

Why and how you should control addictions

First look at addictions, an addiction is anything that enslaves or gets in the way of productivity.
An addiction can be anything from music to food.

The reason for aquireing control over your addiction is no longer being controlcontrolled by your addiction, it no longer gets in the way of your dreams.

Deling with different addictions.
  First to calm you down my addiction is pornography,  some addicting are bad for your health and take a lot of your time.
We'll pornography is mine, addictions have a one size fits all characteristic, they start to become dull and week but by that time they have you.

How I will deal with my addiction
If I can stay away from pornography for one day I'm doing good but I can stay away for a week, the thing that is hard is quitting and not returning.

Marijuana is a hard one (especially since I've only done it once and I didn't get high so I don't full understand it).
Quit for a month if you can do that you have control and can do it sometimes (where it won't interrupt your life).

 Think like an entrepreneur,  "before you say something is impossible, look at why it can be possible and how you can make it possible".
You can use this technique to assess your beliefs and assess your ad others theories.

As always good luck!

One of the biggest tips I can give

Find yourself a business mentor, the reason behind this advice is "learn from failures of others so you don't have to go through them".
Another reason why you should have a mentor is if anything goes wrong you can always brainstorm with him which helps you figure out the best course of action.

Using Etsy.com to make money

There are plenty of ways to make money on Etsy

The first is just opening a shop.    

The easiest way to do that is to log in with Facebook or google.

After you open a shop choose a design for your store! It should be simple but eye capturing.

A few tips for success 
Make something that's unique and can be done everyday without getting repetitive (a creative hobby).

Keep your work time schedule  (otherwise you'll hate it and destroy your hobby, then quit).

There are plenty of excellent websites for this kind of business but I choose to write about Etsy.com because it's the most popular
 (more customers), the problem with this Is the overpopulation of diy enthusiasts  (so make your business stick out by making your store unique).

Good luck!
