<p>Like you, I found myself on information overload and spinning my wheels. E-books, courses, programs, webinars, seminars, and membership sites. And believe me I was spending more than I was making.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>Can I get an Amen</em>? </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>I WANTED TO MAKE MONEY!</strong></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>How about you? Is that what drives you? </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Before I go on with my &#8220;tell like it is&#8221; self. I want to be sure we are 100% clear, I am not here to sell you anything, other than hopefully selling you back to yourself.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Have you stopped long enough to ask yourself why the hell you started this quest? Well I did when I finally jumped off the <a href="http://www.joanndonahue.com/home-based-business-videos.html">get rich quick merry-go-round</a>. When I stopped spinning long enough to regain my <strong>Equilibrium</strong> I remembered I wanted more free time; I wanted to spend more quality time at home with my grandchildren; I wanted to have more time to pamper myself; I wanted more time to be with my husband. Certainly I wanted more time so as to feel like I had more control over my income.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Hell, all I really ever wanted was to be happy as I worked, pay my bills, keep the roof over our heads, clothes on our backs, food in our tummies and enough money left over at the end of the day for a gum ball!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>Everyone should have enough for a wonderful gum ball!</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>However, in this ruthless<a href="http://www.mlmsecrets2011.com/"> MLM industry</a> you found yourself in, where making money (or the easy to achieve fortune) takes precedence over true desire and purpose, one loses their sense of <em>&#8220;good&#8221;</em> judgment and becomes a slave to chasing money.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Good golly miss molly it&#8217;s hard not too. Not only did someone show you on a napkin or up on a chalk board how making lots of money can be done, but they made you think it was easy and that everyone was making a fortune in this industry. The struggle for the legal tender is as old as history itself. And we have been programmed our entire lives to believe money is our answer! Money will get us the freedom we are looking for. Money is our salvation. Have you every thought that you would like to have as much money as so and so. Boy oh boy they don&#8217;t have any problems with all the money they have! Right!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Have you stood in a Lotto line lately?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The <em>precious few</em> in this industry who claim to make a fortune are those who promote money, get rich quick and use dollar amounts that most only dream about. And they know it. And so they USE your dreams as a means to their end! </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><strong>It&#8217;s cruel and unkind.</strong> </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The reason why I feel so strongly about uncovering the cruelty and unkindness is because of the incredible experiences and life changes I&#8217;ve had since admitting to myself that I too was caught up in chasing money just like the <em>precious few</em>, and I came to under stand another truth which I will talk about further on down the page.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Frankly, I much rather die broke than manipulate others for my personal gain because here is the kicker, this is you to folks, I care about how my actions effect not only my own life but also the lives of others around me. Yes I care about you!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Ever hear about <a href="http://www.shivyog.com/index.php?option=com_science&#038;view=detail&#038;id=7&#038;Itemid=56">Karma</a>? Gosh darn it why shouldn&#8217;t I care about you? </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Can you please tell me how all of the go go go make a fortune philosophy stepping on anyone and everyone to get to the top has made you feel deep in your heart? Has all the hype and money madness worked for you? Are you buying into all these sites you land on with the testimonies of wonderful stories of how easy it was to go from a cleaning lady making $100 a week to making $10,000 a week with little effort and with the accolades of the entire industry. How about all the beautiful pictures of checks, yes pictures of money on a huge check to show to everyone that money is more important than your own integrity and your own inner self worth. How about all the stories about poor little broke housewives who all of a sudden found this magnificent system and now they are making double the residual payout every month and driving a new BMW? How about all their claims to have all the answers, and who have walked in your shoes and &#8220;look at me now&#8221; &#8230; and you follow them blindly.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Have you broken any records yet?  Have you gone on to your own greatness ?  Have you made your millions yet?  Have you even made a dollar yet? </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Lets try something new and novel, how about some <a href="http://iamjoanndonahue.com/hot-grandma/">gut level honesty </a> for a change? </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Building a <a href="http://www.newjerseyhomebasedbusiness.com/news.html" title="New Jersey Home Based Business">New Jersey Home Based Business</a> takes work, and most of the time it is harder than you expected, it takes time, more time than anyone dares tell you, it takes courage, and determination, it takes a whole lot more than your money can buy BUT you keep buying in hopes to buy the magic these &#8220;gurus&#8221; swear will be your answer. AND they know it!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><em>Please stop. You will go broke if you are not careful.</em></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>I am a <strong>BIG BIG BIG</strong> did I say BIG advocate of the philosophy that says you should be learning about how to think for <strong>yourself</strong>. Learning to think is hard work, check this out I&#8217;ll prove it to you. Thinking is FREE is it not? We simply don&#8217;t value thinking because society has rammed down our throats that the dollar<br />
sign is how we measure value and so we take our own minds for granted. Things that make you go hmmm? Not to mention we are all moving so fast through out the day that we seldom take the time to stop and think about what the heck we are doing. We just do, do, do and do some more. Ah heck, life as we know it is one big merry-go-round.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Now, what I am about to share with you is something I didn&#8217;t want to admit to myself much less the world, however as soon as I <strong>accepted it</strong> into my heart I was free. I now share it with you in hopes to <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Network-Marketing-Dummies-Zig-Ziglar/dp/0764552929/ref=ntt_at_ep_dpt_9">empower you</a>. I used to think like 99.9% of the people in that I <em>let other people to do my thinking</em> for me. Yes I simply followed along as others were thinking for me, talking for me, and even living for me. So how did I change all this you ask?</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>It all started by a thought that I needed to quiet my mind. That if I could quiet my mind, and start thinking for myself, that I would be amazed at what I could do. That I would be truly astonished with what I could do if I just took the time to slow down and reduce all the thoughts of merry go round running after the dollars! So what I did was just grab a good book, and sit myself down, and just <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Master-System-including-Chapters/dp/1607962136/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&#038;ie=UTF8&#038;qid=1304730402">filled my mind</a> with new ideas, new thoughts, a different perspective. While it is true that No book gives you all the answers. But you know what? This book the Master Key System really showed me who I really am and it gave me insight to find all the answers and to figure out all the answers on my OWN. And that is the key to getting answers! Finding everything out on your OWN. So what you have to do to get these answers is to <strong>jump off the ride of instant wealth and learn to think for yourself</strong>. </p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Here are a few of my personal recommendations to get your juices flowing! Leaders are readers. Just saying <img src='http://iamjoanndonahue.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
