How do I pick a home based business to create residual income?

Are you tired of punching the clock? Do you have the ability to do what you want, when you want? Are you able to attend all of your child or grandchild's events? Does your child have to stay after school in the after care program till 5 or 6 every day to wait for YOU to get off your day job? Do you run out of money each month to take care of your basic needs... or more importantly...to 'treat yourself' now and again... (for me, it's a massage!)

These are the questions you may want to ask yourself to see if you'd like to venture into a home business, part time...or even possibly to replace your job...

What to look for in a home based business?

1. Would I use this product or service EVEN IF THERE WASN'T AN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE MONEY FROM IT! Very basic...but real... if you would NOT use the products or services with or without an income opportunity; then your 'customers & teammates' may not either, therefore it is NOT going to be RESIDUAL... I want to help you create a RESIDUAL INCOME from home...not just a bunch of one time sales!

2. Do you ENJOY working with the people you're signing up with or partnering with? Yes... you get to CHOOSE who you work with!

3. Is the product cost comparative to the mainstream marketplace? Many MLM products ARE overpriced, albeit HIGH quality and OFTEN worth the markup...

4. Is the product 'recession proof?'

5. Is the company stable and going to be here for you long term... Ok... we don't have a crystal ball...but there are signs!

That's it for now... ask yourself these questions before jumping into any home based business! If you need help deciphering, contact me & let me help you get started!

I'm honored to have been asked to share John Assaraf's "Vision Board Kit" with our Santa Monica & International meetup group,

and thought it'd benefit you too! Feel Free to join our Law of Attraction meetup group too! www.meetup.com/manifest
From John:

Hi Friends,

If you saw the movie The Secret, you saw how I used a vision
board to attract and manifest my goals and dreams.

If you didn’t, a vision board is a powerful tool that anyone can
use to shape an ideal future through the power of intention and
visualization. Learning how to vividly imagine your desired
results -- attracting your perfect soul mate, radiant health,
abundant career opportunities, or building personal and
community relationships to give back -- is the first step on
the path to making them happen.

Break through unconscious, limiting beliefs and get ready to
transform your future now. If you can envision it, you're
halfway there! My new book, The Complete Vision Board Kit, will
explain and walk you through exactly how to create a vision
board in conjunction with how to retrain your brain to actually
start believing that you can achieve all your goals and dreams.
Then, the universe will work its magic! This is a great
personal gift and one your friends and family will love.

The Complete Vision Board Kit includes a book, a DVD, an
example vision board, and tools to create your own vision
board. More importantly, it walks you through the entire
process of creating and properly utilizing a vision board,
which, as you know, is a powerful tool that anyone can be use
to shape an ideal future through the power of intention and
visualization.

If you go to www.TheVisionBoardKit.com, you can download a free
chapter from the book as well as watch an informational video
about how vision boards work!

To Your Success,

John Assaraf

Happy New Year! Some words of wisdom from one of my online partners!

But, first... get on tour with us for creating your residual income & changine your life forever in 2008!

My goal is to quadruple my income this year! That means, I have to HELP MORE people SUCCEED at what we do! Who's ready!??

If you are attracted to the Chopra Center (tm) endorsed Zrii (tm) then take that tour HERE!


Now... in gratitude for Linda's words... on "How to get what you want in 2008"!

What I am big on now is setting goals and Intentions - and
for me there is no better time than the beginning of a fresh
new year to set your Intentions to create your life the way
you truly want it to be.

Would you agree?

As I sit here writing to you I am tucked away in a fabulous
log home in the North Carolina Mountains where we are
vacationing for two weeks. I am surrounded by trees and
mountain views of the Blue Ridge Mountains.

I can't think of a better place to get clear about what I
want for 2008.

In 2007 my goal was to replace my husband's income. I have
done that and now my goal is to double or triple that income
in 2008.

Why? So that we can have the freedom to do whatever we want
whenever we want with the ability to help as many people as
possible.

So how do you get what you want in 2008?

I believe it is by a combination of getting clear about what
you want, ASKing, and detaching from the outcome...
surrending to a power that is greater than you.

This is my affirmation which you are welcome to borrow:

"I surrender to a power that is greater than me - that lives
within me - who can deliver more good to me in more ways
than I can ever imagine for myself.

For me, it means asking for what I want, surrending to the
power greater than me to deliver more good than I can
imagine for myself...AND being open to receiving... ALLOWing
my good to flow to me in perfect and Divine timing.

You may have seen in my signature, "Living in Divine
inspiration."

It means exactly that... opening myself to the Divine
inspiration that flows through me when I allow it... and I
AM allowing it.

Creating what I want is getting easier and easier for me as
I let go... and allow.

You can too.

Are you allowing what you want to flow into your life?

Many of us say we want this or that but we can't afford it
or we don't deserve or no one in our family has ever had
that.

Hogwash!

You CAN have anything you want... starting right now.

Since I left the corporate world as a paralegal almost 10
years ago, I have learned SO much and I continue to learn
every day.

One of my secrets is allowing people to get to know me and
inviting new people into my life who are more knowledgeable
than me... who can lead me to resources and tools that will
help me achieve my income goals.

My business intention for 2008 is the same as it was for
2007 - and you may borrow this one too...

"It is my intention to attract to me those people who are
looking for the products and services I offer, who have the
financial means to participate, and who are willing to put
forth the effort to create success."

Wouldn't you rather ATTRACT new business rather than spend
your time convincing others that what you have is right for
them?

Why not just attract the people who are already looking for
you?

It's a wonderful way to do business.

And you can do that with little or no cost, by networking
online through message boards, social communities, email
discussion lists, etc.

So, as we leap into the new year, here are a few of the
resources that I am using that are working for me. Perhaps
they will work for you too.

I encourage you to take action to achieve what you want in
your life.

Choose the way you want your life to be and move in that
direction.

When I surrendered to a power that is greater than me I
began to receive more than I could have imagined for myself.

I am blessed and I am sending blessings to you for your new
year in 2008.

With Love and Appreciation,

Linda Miller

I am Divinely Inspired

Daily Disciplines for Effortless SUCCESS!

Daily Disciplines for Effortless Success:
Six Steps for Activating "The Secret" in Your Life
by Jack Canfield

The first step to using Law of Attraction as presented in the movie The Secret is to clarify exactly what you want. Remember—determine, write down and talk about what you do want, not what you don't want. Be as specific as possible. Once you have clarified what you want, do the following each and every day.

1. Morning Intention, Visualization and Releasing
As soon as you wake up in the morning, take about 5 minutes to focus your mind on your desires, goals and intentions. Start by sitting in a comfortable position, closing your eyes and visualizing your desires and goals as already being fulfilled. Spend 30 seconds to a minute on each of your core desires and goals. You can also take a few moments to visualize your day going exactly as you would like it to.
When you do this, you will often find negative limiting beliefs that are the result of negative programming from your childhood will come up. You may hear thoughts like "I could never afford that," "there's no way I'll ever get that," or "who am I kidding?" coming up. If you do, use one of the many releasing techniques that are available (see the list below) to release the negative thought. Don't fight or argue with the thought; just release it.
Remember to also spend several moments feeling the feelings you would feel if you had already manifested your desire in your life. The intensity of the feeling is what fuels the intensity of the attraction.
Powerful releasing techniques:

•The Sedona Method by Hale Dwoskin: www.sedonamethod.com
(Hale will be sharing his techniques when he speaks at my summer training
Breakthrough to Success.)
•The Work by Byron Katie: www.TheWork.com
•The Emotional Freedom Technique: www.emofree.com

2. Use External Images to Keep you Focused on Your Desires and Goals
To keep yourself focused on what you want to manifest surround yourself with visual images of the things and experiences you want to attract into your life. There are many techniques you can use for this.

1) Cut out pictures of the things you wish to own (like your ideal car or home) and pictures that represent the experiences you want to have (like the perfect relationship, your ideal job, perfect health, being at your ideal weight, more joy, inner peace or balance in your life)to remind yourself of how you want it to be. Tape them up where you will see them every day—on the mirror, the refrigerator, or your bulletin board. You can also scan them into your computer and make them into a screen saver or a continuously running PowerPoint program.

2) Combine your pictures and words that you cut out into a collage on a large piece of poster board.

3) Make a Dream Book by putting the pictures into a 3-ring binder pasted onto the pages or slid into plastic page protectors.

When you look at any of these pictures, do what Bob Doyle, who is featured in The Secret teaches— think the thought, "THIS IS MINE NOW! THIS IS WHO I AM!"

3. Think a Better Feeling Thought
Start paying attention to the many times during the day that you have emotional responses (to other people, experiences, or your own thoughts) that are not in alignment with having or producing your desires. Pay special attention to when you feel disappointment, resentment, frustration or anger about your experiences and circumstances.

Remember, it's your feelings (which are created by your thoughts, opinions, and beliefs) that are attracting your current circumstances. You must make a vibrational shift by changing your thoughts to ones that make you feel better (i.e., raise your vibration). Remember that you must become a vibrational match for the things and experiences that you want to attract into your life.

It is especially important to focus your thoughts and behaviors on things that cause you to feel joy. Focus your thoughts on thoughts that bring you joy (your lover, your best friend, your grandchildren, your favorite vacation spot) and your actions on doing the things you love to do (pet your cat, work in your garden, listen to your favorite music).

4. Have an Attitude of Gratitude
It is critical to take time each and every day to focus on what you are grateful for. Some people do this in the morning before or after they visualize their desires; others prefer to do it in the evening. Focus on all of the things in your life (most of which you take for granted) that you are grateful for—your health, your children, your job, the nice weather, electricity, running water, a nice stereo system, your flower garden, your pets, your friends).

No matter what your situation, there are always things to be grateful for. The more you focus on what you are grateful for, the more things and experiences you will attract to be grateful for. You may wish to carry a "gratitude rock" like the one Lee Brower talks about in "The Secret."

5. Take Action
There are two kinds of actions you can take. Obvious actions are things like, if you want a better car, going to test drive all of the models you are interested in and choosing the exact car you want to have, and saving 10% of your income in a "car account." If you want to be a doctor, apply to medical school.

There are also what I call "inspired actions." Once you begin to do the things described above, the universe will start responding by sending people, resources and opportunities you need to manifest your desired result. You are going to find that you have inspired ideas; you must act on them. You must follow those gentle proddings from the universe. Often these intuitive impulses will have no seeming connection to achieving your goal, but if you follow them, they will lead you down a path of wonderful fulfillment.

Here's a quick way to know if the actions you're taking are taking you closer to the fulfillment of your dreams and desires. If you are feeling joy while you are doing them, then you are on the right path. Remember, joy is your internal guidance system, just like the GPS system in a car, telling you are taking the right actions. Follow your joy.

6. Acknowledge That it is Working
If you start to see something change for the better, acknowledge that it is happening. Appreciate it. When you find the perfect parking space, acknowledge it. When you get the table you want in the restaurant, acknowledge it. When you receive unexpected income, acknowledge it. When you meet someone who can help you achieve your goal, acknowledge that Law of Attraction is working. The more you acknowledge that it's working, the more it will work. It's that simple.

If you are attracting things into your life that you don't want, remember the Law of Attraction is still working. Instead of thinking or saying, "It's not working," ask your self, "What am I focusing on, thinking about, talking about, feeling or doing that is attracting this into my life?" If you want to know what you are thinking about, notice the results you are producing in your life. To change those results, you will first have to change your vibration by changing your thoughts and feelings.
While there are many techniques that are variations on these themes that you can apply, there's nothing else you have to do.
