The most successful entrepreneur

has surrounded himself and continues

to surround himself with other

successful entrepreneurs.

Together the energy, intelligence and experience

lifts all the entrepreneurs to their highest levels.

Now, lets take this down a notch..

Let me paint a picture

I want you to see the simplicity

and the genius in this…

With-out and environment that

will add WOOD to your heat and

challenge you to remain lit,

With-out  OTHERS who are TALLER and

STRONGER than you pounding,

“one more rep, do it again, go harder”

and with-out the FRICTION of standing

next to OTHERS who are AHEAD of you,

OOOPS .. you will putter out an stall.

Your fire will become a glowing ember

And you will probably quit.

YOUR light extinguished!!

No matter where you are, what you sell/promote

REMEMBER this PLEASE…..

There is no MAGIC Bullet to success..

There is no GET RICH QUICK to success..

Find a community, feed YOUR fire and

Burn baby burn!  OR  if you are the shy type

and you want to hang back and kind a sorta

dip your toe in the idea for a bit to see if it’s something

you want to do… Well then  call me..  we will chat about

the dipping part!  I don’t bite and I’m really a super nice

person who just knows a thing or two and I want to help!

Peace,

JoAnn

Who are these peopel?  How have they broken thru the molds

of their previous experiences to go on and achieve their destiny?

Everyone has a special destiny,  but few reach it.

What is the most common denominator among these

people?

They all thought for themselves…

and dared to confront the forbidden.

If you ever thought that there must be something

more to life, you were right!

As grim as the economic picture seems, one thing is certain:

It won’t destroy YOU… unless you let it.

It is time for you to look in the mirror and answer this simple question:

“What will it take for me to WIN in this relentless, turbulent economy?”

The answer is TRAINING.

Not good intentions… wishes… and hopes.

You have no alternative but to invest in yourself.

If you take this time to REINVENT YOURSELF..

RETOOL YOURSELF… and start making the essential changes

you need to unleash the winner within…

you will THRIVE durning the next 12 months.

Winners always find opportunity in adversity.

If you think you can maintain the status quo…

that good enough performance will sneak you through…

your very survival is in question.

Here’s To Thriving!

Your Friend JoAnn

Allow me to share with you an article I found
to be interesting and most insightful with
much promise. Now that I am officially considered “over the hill”

Thank You Ray Tamayo

For our fifth annual roundup, BusinessWeek readers
nominated a record number of young entrepreneurs.
Meet the 25 most impressive

Welcome to our fifth annual roundup
of the country’s most promising young entrepreneurs.
Before we get started examining the new batch, consider this question:
Who is more likely to start a business:
A college student or a worker
with a few decades of experience?
Yep, you guessed it: the experienced worker.

More from BusinessWeek.com:

• America’s Best Young Entrepreneurs 2009

• Entrepreneurs Who Started Young

• Special Report: America’s Best Young Entrepreneurs

It turns out it’s boomers, not twentysomethings,
who start the most businesses in the U.S.
Over the past decade or so,
the highest rate of entrepreneurial activity
belongs to the 55-64 age group.

The 20-34 age bracket, by contrast, had the lowest rate.
That’s according to a recent
report by Dane Stangler, a senior analyst with the Kauffman Foundation,
based on data collected from 1996 to 2007.
It echoes research by entrepreneur-turned-academic
Vivek Wadhwa, who found that twice as many
tech entrepreneurs create ventures
in their 50s as do those in their early 20s.

So not only are these entrepreneurs
navigating the toughest economy many of us
have ever lived through,
they’re also vastly outnumbered by older,
more experienced competitors,
who usually have more contacts and capital.
That’s even more reason to continue to give young entrepreneurs
the encouragement, respect, and awe that they’ve
received since becoming cultural icons during the dot-com boom.

Stangler says he’s not suggesting young people
aren’t entrepreneurial or won’t be.
“The cachet of large, established companies has taken a hit.
Job tenure has been falling for a long time.
Employment is not going to recover in the very near future.
People across all age groups are going
to take the future into their own hands.”

And one can start there at the above link
to check out what the “over the hill”,
“experienced worker” folk are learning.
And feel free to go here and see how we are
learning the “Real Deal”.
We don’t do MLM… we use MLM

Here’s To Taking The Future In Our Own Hands,

“You gain strength, courage, and confidence

~ Eleanor Roosevelt

As I read more about this lady

who Harry Truman considered to be the

First Lady Of The World

I can’t help but think of

everyone who is out here

making a difference

in our world today.. They all encourage

me to keep on keeping on.. How about you?

OR

Are you the kind who stands back

and just snickers and says things like….

“Sure, it’s easy for them,” “They are just lucky.”

“They have money so they can,”

And all the other garbage that can be dumped from our mouths?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

If you take the time to study those who have risen above all of

their circumstances you will soon see a common thread that binds..

Guts, determination, time spent studying and a willingness to not give up!

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Eleanor Roosevelt was born on October 11, 1884,

in New York City, the first child of Anna Hall and Elliott Roosevelt.

Her father, a businessman, came from a distinguished,

wealthy, and politically active New York family

with roots in the city’s earliest colonial settlements.

Her mother was a descendant of the Livingstons,

a family that was equally rooted in the political history

of colonial New York and Revolutionary America.

Eleanor’s mother, Anna, was one of the most

beautiful women in New York high society,

and this made young Eleanor feel insecure about her plainer appearance.

Anna died of diphtheria when Eleanor was eight years old.

Eleanor’s father, a handsome man-about-town,

died of alcoholism less than two years later.

The orphaned Eleanor, insecure and self-conscious,

was subsequently placed in the care

of her maternal grandmother, Mary Hall.

When Eleanor was 15 years old her grandmother sent

her to the Allenswood Academy in London, England.

For three years, under the tutelage of Marie Souvestre,

Eleanor developed lifelong interests in politics,

social causes, history, and literature.

Eleanor later asserted that Souvestre was one

of the most important influences in her life.

A confident, well educated, and socially conscious Eleanor

returned to the United States in 1902

to make her debut in New York society.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Do you notice the different description of the

Eleanor after her years of study..after her years of

pushing forward to overcome?

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

It’s the same for you..You have a desire, you have a dream

you know you can make a difference so what’s stopping you?

Fear, confusion, and plain old know how..

You can do those which you fear, you can do those that

you don’t understand, and those which you have not the skill (yet).

Gather up your gumption, your sheer determination and find a place

where you can learn to study that which you only dream about..

If I can help point you in a direction I am happy to do so

If I can help you to help yourself…. I will gladly….sMILES…

There is no one more dependable in your success then YOU!

Here’s to Keeping It Real,
JoAnn

So you came on here to make money.
And when that didn’t happen you still
Stayed.

You just wouldn’t give up. Something
Inside of you would not rest.

Are you aware that you are trying to
Give “RESCUE” to the you that lives in your head!

There is a discipline with self that if
Attended to will bring forth greatness.

Tell me I’m wrong. Go ahead I dare you.
Because I will come back with this..

How do you explain Oprah, Obama,
Hochman, Schroeder…My cousin who was a
Struggling student as a young boy and has
Grown up to express himself and everything
He touches turns to gold.

These fine folks aren’t any more everyday
Then you and me. And the greatness that is
With-in comes from a DILIGENT discipline
With self that most will not take the time to do.

I Am aware of this fact, I Am aware that my God
Has a assignment for me. I Am aware that my God
Desires that I live my dreams because it’s in my
Dreams HE is revealed! Now that’s an assignment!

You see It’s in disciplining myself to self
I discover my greatness. It reveals itself.

I Become More

And now I touch others just like the people
Who have been touching others since the beginning of time!
Changing, building, adding increase into other people.

Express Yourself!

Peace,

JoAnn Donahue

Dreamers of The World

Okay I am an ex wanna be Hippie and I just
like the word… Groove.. Madonna likes it too.

Any who, here is MY word.

Until you get into YOUR groove, Until YOU get
tuned in with YOUR Groove you haven’t even begun.

So you want to have a home based business,
because you believe YOU are meant too.
You want to be a better brother, father, sister
daughter, mother, grammy what-ever your
case may be, YOU have this gnawling in your
belly that just will not STOP.

GREAT.. That’s YOUR groove.. Get to know it,
study it, play with it, practice it, tweek it,
but most of all STUDY IT….

This is what all the GREAT SUCCESS Stories
did. They had the same inner gnawling.

They were not going to stop until they
proved their truth..

And isn’t our world a better place because
they did?

Think.. Edison, Ford, Franklin, Lincoln,
Lennon, Cash, King, Mother Teresa,
By golly miss molly~~~ the list goes on and on..

To be so consumed with ego and refuse
to figure out the Hows and Whys that make
UP YOUR groove is denying the world of better!
And in essence denying yourself of the better
that is for you to behold.

Is this easy?  Heck NO..
But dare tell me one thing worth
having in life is easy..

Ever try giving birth?   I DID  (3) times…
You think after one us women would say
That’s it…

Nope we go on to do it again because the
the beauty to behold is ours if we want it!

So is YOUR beauty to behold if you
want it.. How bad do you want it?

Are you willing like John Lennon who
practiced his talent his entire (short)
life.. Listen to the beauty he brought
the world..
(Can you imagine what he would be singing today)

Are you willing like any female who gives birth
to take it, your hard hits, and groove forward
in-spite of the hurts and bruises along the way?

Because you know you have a song inside
that you must groove too?

You have a TRUTH TO PROVE…

Peace & Prosperity,
JoAnn Donahue

In your mind see plenty everywhere.

Yes, it is hard sometimes to overcome

the thought that there is not enough,

for it is an insidious thought that has been

in consciousness for a long time. But it

can be done and is being done by others.

The prosperity law is not a theory but a

demonstrated fact, as thousands can testify.

Now is the time to open your mind and to see plenty.

Do not be fearful, regardless of how outer

appearances may affect others. Keep your head when all

about you are losing theirs. Refuse to load up

your mind with old material thoughts of economy

to the point of denial of what you really need.

Eliminate the old limiting ideas.

The above ideas come from the book…

“Prosperity” written by: Charles Fillmore

And also from the community of

The Million Mind March.

Let’s pick up where we left off..

I talked about the “art” of business thinking..

And what all the famous MLM “names” uncovered.

You see I know it’s a formula. As with anything else

that’s works like a well oiled machine… Like McDonald’s

They hire young kids, they quit and no one worries because

the system, the formula still works.. And so the hamburgers

continue to sell, the fries on the side are placed in the bags,

and no one knows that 5 young kids quit yesterday

and they are running the place short handed!

It works for broke waiters ( Mike Dillard), un-educated

mother of three and grammy of 2 (JoAnn Donahue), homeless

people (Dani Johnson) or even Singers (Elvis) and cooks

like Rachel Ray and Bobby Flay.

One’s Ignorance of the Immutable Laws Within the Formula

Dictate and Predict Demise and Certain Failure.

Therefore There is NO Failure of the System and Formula.

Only in use or lack of use and Man’s dismissal of

The Steps!

To Your Success,

JoAnn Donahue

I thought I would take this post a step futher..

We left off if products were the answer, we’d all

be “filthy rich” by now!

However that concept is an industry hoax and sad

but true a Big Fat Lie, because products don’t

move all by themselves.

Instead, it’s leadership (success) that moves products.

It’s one successful guy turning on other successful

guys (onto the product) and on and on. They are all

either making money or “just in” and about to make it.

Leadership and the art of business moves products in

MLM. Nothing more…. at least not long term.

The “art ” of business is for another post!

All Famous MLM “Names” Uncovered Something

That Ones Not Making Money Still Ignore

and Persist Into Failure.

Stay tuned.. Look forward to meeting you back here!
