Six-Figure Marketing Brainstorm: Hot New Marketing Ideas to Attract New Clients and Improve your Cash Flow!

Dear Business-Builder,

As with any type of marketing, you have to open your eyes and ears to new ideas. When you hear an idea or technique being used in an unrelated industry… PAY CLOSE ATTENTION. When you take a proven marketing strategy from an unrelated industry and make it fit your own – you will experience a breakthrough.

It’s always easier to look within your own industry for ideas – but the real good, profitable ones will almost always come from outside.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Consider the following a start to making this your best year yet: ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

What are you doing to keep in touch with your clients and prospects?

It always amazes me to watch how the typical business treats their clients… after they become clients.

At first, it seems they would do anything to get you to buy from them.

Run advertising, offer special deals, bundle things together, new customer discounts... you name it, they do it.

BUT, as soon as they get you as a paying client – you get dropped faster than a steaming hot iron.

Why?

After all the work you put into getting your first deal from a client: earning their trust, showing them you are different, getting them to pull out their wallet, and getting them to put their cash on the table for the first time.

You do all of this – and then never communicate with them again. It makes no sense if you think about it.

You know as well as I that it is MUCH easier to get a person to buy from you if they have already bought before.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Step #1: The biggest and most immediate returns you can see from your marketing efforts involve your existing clients. Not in finding a new army of eager first-time-buyers… which is where most small business owners put their efforts.

Your existing clients are where the real money is.

Cultivate a solid relationship with them – and build in a consistent communication stream with them – and you will see a big difference in your revenue growth.

The easiest way to use Step #1 in your business?

A monthly print newsletter that shows up in their physical mailbox. Email newsletters also work great – and still must be used – but the real money is in adding print to your marketing efforts.

For example:

Rita started her first print letter 5 months ago to promote her automotive repair business. Her challenges before starting the print newsletter:

- the automotive repair business operates out of their farm - they have a number of employees - they do not live near a town or city (no local nearby population to draw from)

- they had never really kept much of a database

- people have to drive for miles to visit their shop and get their car repaired

So, how do you find hot new buyers for a business that depends on people physically visiting your location, yet they live many miles away?

Rita bought a list of addresses surrounding her (quite a wide circle out in the country). She bought 5,000 addresses to mail to that were within reasonable driving distances (under one hour).

She designed a 4-page print newsletter that gets mailed cold to these names.

It costs her $0.10 to print each and $0.10 to mail each (bulk mail)

So – her total outlay per month is $1,000 to mail to 5,000 homes. ($5,000 total to mail the newsletter each month for 5 months).

Her results:

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
OVER $200,000 in new business Over 250 new clients
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

With a simple print newsletter.

Now, if Rita can do this with a completely COLD list – what can you be doing with your own client database? Imagine what is possible if you put this same investment out there every month.

$200,000 from a $5,000 investment. For every $1 she invests, she gets $40 back into the business.

So, do I have your attention yet?

Do you see how powerful and profitable this is?

Her newsletter is simple, consisting of:

- Jokes
- Facts
- Trivia
- Cartoons
- Specials on repair work
- Articles on vehicle maintenance

Content you could easily put together once a month, or even outsource the bulk of through services like Elance.com or Rentacoder.com. Her first one took hours to put together – now it takes her less than an hour a month to get it compiled and ready for print.

If you commit to doing a print newsletter once a month to your clients and prospects, you will see near immediate results (as long as you stay consistent in sending it out).

You can find template designs – even template content to use in your newsletter… but you must test it out in your business. And yes, it will work in your business – no matter what your industry is. Mix up the offers with some fun stuff (jokes, trivia, strange facts, etc.) and people will look forward to reading your next one.

Make sure there is always a solid offer or two in the newsletter. And give them incentives that are not available through any other means than through your newsletter (makes it easier to track results that way).

Once you get them to start buying, and buying more often, then you can build in other incentive campaigns as in step 2 (which will be discussed next week).

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
SOME IDEAS FOR YOUR PRINT NEWSLETTER ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

- Unique human interest stories from team members (new births, pets, hobbies, in the news) - make the team members a significant part of your newsletter

- write ups on your clients successes with your products and services (follow the case study format: what their life was like before using you, how they found you, how they selected you, their experiences using you, and the end results they attained)

- interesting trends that your target market would be interested in (business trends, people trends, aging trends, spending trends)

- strange facts or history - does not need to be related to your business or industry - people will love this section as it keeps them entertained and looking for more

- a full page Ad for one of your products or services – can be used to test ads as well so have 1 regular ad and 1 test ad running in same newsletter

- Endorse others (preferably clients) who run their own business

- Staff Memo – have your staff “write” the newsletter and/or promotions

- Calendar – upcoming events – special days or promotions

- Jokes (keep them clean)

- Cartoons are always a hit. http://www.cashcartoons.com/ or http://www.goofyfaces.com/ or http://www.cartoonstock.com/

- Happy customer pictures

- Pick on a common enemy (taxes, government, media, poor customer service, reality shows, whatever you find your customers commonly complain about)

- Questions for them to ponder

- Book reviews

- Product reviews

- Tips for use

- Advanced tips for use

- 27 Creative Ways To Use ( ___ your product or service ___)

Book Review Jump In, by Mark Burnett
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

What a fantastic book! I honestly knew very little about Mark Burnett – other than he was behind the "Survivor" series. I had no clue on ALL the other reality shows he is behind… nor did I know he was such an inspiration to all who want more out of life.

He is a master of teaching the power of leaping while you look (not looking before you leap). The “Ready-fire-aim” approach. Most people are petrified of taking any action – which is why the majority of people settle for lives of mediocrity and “what ifs?”. Those that adopt Mark’s philosophy are those that end up creating wildly successful lives.

I am not a big reality show person. I am not a big TV person. The only real show I watch is the "Apprentice" (another Mark creation). This book completely changed the way I looked at reality TV. I had no idea what went on behind the scenes for these shows… the work that goes into it. The money that it takes to develop these shows – the money that can be MADE with these shows.

Amazing.

Some of the big lessons in this book:

NEVER pitch a big idea over the phone. Always arrange a face to face meeting so you can see, judge and react to their body language. You will blow the deal if you ignore this step.

Jump In without worrying about being perfect – or appearing unprepared. Successful people appreciate passion and inspiration – not meticulous spreadsheets and over-analyzed business plans (things change way too rapidly in the real world to get fixated on a plan of action that may not work)

Learn to fly by the seat of your pants – but (just as important) look as if you are well prepared and were expecting these twists and turns to happen.

Only results count – not how you arrive at those results. If it takes longer than expected and a hundred changes in direction had to happen – so be it. At least the end goal was achieved.

Hire people smarter than you, more focused than you, and will speak up in pursuit of a better solution

Be right or be wrong – just don’t be afraid of making a decision. People will forgive you for bad decisions if you are an action taker and a decision maker.

Be an optimist and a dreamer – expect greatness from yourself and unexpected surprises will find their way.

Celebrate ALL your mini-victories. Have fun with your staff – and with your family. They are all there along side you and it is up to you to make sure they know you appreciate them.

Facing your fears robs your fears of their power

Originality ALWAYS wins out over imitation

Stand by your dreams and never sell out.

Stick to your guns – no matter WHO says you are wrong.

Create your own surge of success and wealth… it is not owed to you nor will it be handed to you. Create your own.

He doesn’t talk about the money much – more the achievement he feels when landing a bigger deal – another show. The money is just a measuring tool of how he is doing.

Family oriented – his boys are a strong part of the book, his achievements, and all of their experiences throughout the story of his personal quest for success.

Mark Burnett is an amazing guy who is the perfect model to follow for those seeking success and achievement in their lives – in short periods of time. A fascinating read and a must for those who have a dream and want to make sure that dream comes true. Jump In! can make it happen.

To your marketing and profit breakthroughs!

The Secret & Diamond Feng Shui: 6 Steps to create Happiness and Wealth in your life.

1. What is Feng Shui?

Feng Shui, meaning wind and water, is an ancient art and science based on laws that govern the flow of energy. The Chinese called it Chi or Qi. By creating improvements in the flow of Chi in your home or office, you create positive changes in your life.

2. What is Diamond Feng Shui?

Marie Diamond has studied the Laws of the Universe since she was 7 years old and has seen that Happiness and Wealth depend on 3 aspects. She calls this the quantum physics of the home.

You can attract happiness and wealth with your spirit and mind but if your home is not telling the universe the same, the universe cannot deliver.

Two important parts of the Law of Attraction are: Act as if and Like attracts like. You can act as if you are already wealthy and happy by making your home and workspace exactly as you wish.

If you create disharmony around you, the universe can’t bring you harmony because the message between your mind and your environment need to be in sync for manifestation to occur.

1/ Your Heaven Luck: Every human being born on this planet is not only living this one life. You are coming in with a bag of Heavenly Good and/or Bad Luck. These are simply actions, thoughts, and emotions you have created in a past life experience. This creates 1/3 of the Law of Attraction. What you have created in a past life experience will reflect in the life circumstances you were born into.

The astrologer will tell you: tell me when you are born and I will tell you your life.


2/ Your Human Luck: Every human being has a physical, emotional, mental and spiritual experience and how you use your talents and skills to attract happiness and wealth, is 1/3 of your Law of Attraction.
What you create through living your daily life as a human being will reflect in the life circumstances you are creating. Your attitudes and behaviors will determine what you do with your life.

The psychologist will tell you: tell me how you think, how you feel and how you act, and I will tell you your life.

3/ Your Earth Luck: Every human being lives in several environments: your home, your workspace, your community, your country, the earth. This creates 1/3 of the Law of Attraction.
The positive or negative influence of these environments reflects on your life and work.

The Feng Shui specialist will tell you: show me your home and I will tell you your life.
Marie Diamond has discovered that these 3 kinds of luck are totally interconnected and that the Law of attraction works on these 3 levels.

Improve your destiny, and you will attract your greatest dreams.
Improve how you think, feel, and act, and you will improve your destiny.
Improve your home, and you will think, feel, and act differently.


DO YOU WANT TO KNOW THE SECRET?

Improving your home is the easiest of all.

Changing your bed, changing pictures, changing the flow, can all be done in a couple of minutes.
Changing your destiny and changing your thoughts and feelings, can take many years of practicing.

In this Free Diamond E-Book, Marie Diamond gives you the first 6 steps to use the Law of Attraction in your home. Use the Secret of the Law of Attraction in your home to change your life and your destiny.

Marie Diamond wishes for each of you that you become the Queen or King in your own Universe. Your home or office is your castle in your universe. Marie will explain the 6 steps to be free to manifest all the wealth and happiness that you as a queen or king deserve to have in the universe of your life.

First Step: BE GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU HAVE

The Law of the Attraction says you can’t go from where you are to where you want to go, if you are not grateful for what you have.

How to be grateful in Diamond Feng Shui?

Gratitude for your environment is by taking care of what you have.

1/ Clean up your home and office: garbage bins cleaned out, no clutter, no spider webs, and no piles of books or magazines.

2/ It is better to hide things in closets and cabinets than show disorder in your energy field- you can organize it later if necessary.

3/ Paint old surfaces, put lights in dark corners.

4/ Wipe the dust and clean the floor.

5/ Remove dead as well as dried flowers.

6/ Place fresh bouquets to thank your home for sheltering, supporting and loving you.


Second Step: Make a decision of what you wish

The Law of Attraction tells us that the Universe is only able to help you create your desires if you clearly decide what you wish. The Universe tells us: YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND.

A. WHAT DO YOU WISH?

Some people are very clear about what they desire, and others are totally not.

Marie Diamond can help you decide with SOME TIPS.

1/ If you have a hard time making a decision on what you wish to create, make sure you place a bubbling fountain in the north of your living room or office, but not in your bedroom.

2/ Check which images you surround yourself with:
• Are they uplifting or depressing? Choose uplifting images.
• Are the people in the images alone or with others? Find pictures or images with a feeling of togetherness.
• Are there many pictures on your walls or is there space between them? Zen is better than chaos.
• Are there any pictures confirming your dreams or your nightmares? Confirm your dreams.

3/ Make sure your desk is clear and your papers are filed, or it can be hard to make decisions in your professional life.

4/ Declutter your computer files. Don’t let too many files be open on hold as you work.

B. 4 THINGS TO START WISHES:

When using Diamond Feng Shui, it is important to have your wish ready in 4 aspects of your life:

SUCCESS: Your professional life

HEALTH: Harmony in your body

RELATIONSHIPS: All kinds - professional, romantic, family and friends

WISDOM: Your spiritual level, or level of knowledge

In order to ask the universe your wishes for these 4 aspects, you need to know how to address them to the universe:

1/ in the present tense
2/ with your Name: for example - I, Marie Diamond
3/ in detail: the more details, the better the Universe can respond to you
4/ confirmed with symbols, colors, and images that according to Diamond Feng Shui can help you

SUCCESS: royal blue will be helpful for everyone to manifest professional success.

HEALTH: emerald green will be helpful for everyone to manifest good health in body, mind and spirit.

RELATIONSHIPS: rose will be helpful for everyone to manifest great relationships.

WISDOM: yellow will be helpful for everyone to manifest wisdom and knowledge.

C. SENDING THE MESSAGE TO THE UNIVERSE FROM THE RIGHT ANGLE

Asking the universe is one thing, but which direction will have the most impact? In Diamond Feng Shui Essentials, Marie Diamond explains to you exactly which directions are important for you personally, to activate in your living room, office or bedroom.

THE SECRET is that this direction is not the same for everyone. You need to know your 4 best directions to send your message on success, health, relationships and wisdom to the universe. That is the knowledge Marie Diamond has acquired from the ancient wisdom of Feng Shui.

As we are living in a linear time and space dimension we need to use this linear information to reach the non-linear dimensions of the universe. The universe is like the postal service. If you post your mail in the right mailbox, and from the correct address, you will receive the right answers back from the universe more quickly.

Marie explains in a DVD, CD and Manual exactly how to send the right message to the universe and increase your ability to manifest your desires more quickly.

Third Step: The Universe supports your wish

The Law of Attraction tells us that the Universe is our greatest supporter and supports us in any wish we have.

Show the universe that you know you trust the support, by sitting on your throne; the King or Queen always sits on a throne. Feng Shui requires that you feel the support of the universe in your life. Remember you need to act as if. When you sit in a way that you feel support in your back, you are acting as if the universe is supporting you and IT WILL.

1/ Sit in a solid, high–backed chair.

2/ Sitting with a solid wall behind you also provides support.

3/ If you sit with your back to a door or window, make sure you have a solid, high–backed chair or a tall round-leaved plant behind you.

4/ If those are not possible, make sure you hang on the back of your chair an image of a mountain or a mentor or an angel, so you are symbolically supported by someone representing the Universe.


Fourth Step: Be open to the gifts of the Universe

The Law of Attraction tells us that you need to be open to the gifts of the universe. You need to be in a receiving mode. If you are not opening yourself to what the universe has as insights or as taps on your shoulder and you turn yourself away from the possibilities, you will not see the gifts coming to you.

Show the universe that you are open to receiving. The King or Queen sits in their throne in a way that allows them to see the incoming flow from the universe. By sitting this way, they are open to the gifts that the universe is in process of manifesting. The gifts can come as physical gifts, in the form of relationships with the right people, or the perfect insight or information you need. Feng Shui requires that you feel the support of the universe in your life. Remember you need to act as if. When sitting in a way that you feel support in your back and are open in the front, you are acting as if the universe is supporting you and IT WILL.

Position your Chair as the throne of the Queen or King

Wherever you sit: your desk, on your couch, in a restaurant, or in meetings, position yourself like a queen or king to see the incoming flow. If you can see the incoming flow where you sit, you can see the opportunities the universe is sending you. You will make the right decisions, as your senses will capture all the messages the universe sends.

Extra tips:

1/ Make sure you have a solid wall behind you for support or a high-backed chair.
2/ Make sure images hang behind you that are supportive: as mentors, mountains, angels, family members or partners that support you.
3/ Remove any sharp-leaved plants from your area.
4/ Remove all clutter around you.
5/ The main breadwinner or head of the family needs to sit in the best position – not your children or your dog or cat or your mother in law: you need to be in charge of your home.

Position your Bed as the bed of the Queen or King

The universe also sends messages at night because dreams and inspiration can help you direct your life to make the right decisions. You need to clearly see the door when you wake up to the messages of the universe in the morning.

Extra tips:

1/ Make sure you have a solid wall behind you for support.
2/ Try to sleep in a good direction for you personally: the top of your head needs to point to a good direction.
3/ If your bed is placed into a corner for sleeping in the right direction, make sure you have a headboard or a screen behind you.
4/ Make sure no mirror is reflecting your bed.
5/ Sleep in a queen or king sized bed even when you sleep alone.
6/ Do not hang images of water above your bed: you drown – no images of big rocks – you are squashed.
7/ Put images above your bed of what you wish to manifest: romance, health, wisdom, success, so your unconscious mind can focus on them during your sleep.
8/ No headboard made of slats or you will cut to pieces your energy for manifesting.

Fifth Step: Optimize your Manifestation

To have the highest results for the Law of Attraction, your home needs to reflect your thoughts, emotions and actions. Using the Law of Attraction in your environment needs to become a daily practice, a second nature, so that your whole body and aura are constantly opening up to the messages in the universe; from the moment that you awaken in your queen or king-sized bed, to the coffee shop where you take your breakfast, to the desk in your office, the business meeting at lunch, your wonderful dinner with your partner, (make sure you both see the entrance of the restaurant – be gracious to your partner) until you watch the late night show in your living room with the family.

FACING THE RIGHT DIRECTION WHEN YOU ARE AWAKE

As you know, it is important during the day to face the right direction for you. This allows all your senses to capture all the incoming messages and gifts from the universe.

When you face the right direction, you can:

1/ hear the right messages.
2/ see the right signs.
3/ smell and taste the subtle impressions the universe is giving you.
4/ feel in your heart this is the right thing to do.
5/ say to the universe, Thank You ……I GOT IT.

What is the right direction?

In the first step you needed to hang in your personal best directions the right message to the universe.
Well if you wish to receive quick and instant gifts from the universe, you need to sit as much as 5 hours per day towards the right direction.

1/ you wish to attract success: sit at least 5 hours facing the right direction
2/ you wish to attract health: sit at least 5 hours facing the right direction
3/ you wish to attract relationships: sit at least 5 hours facing the right direction
4/ you wish to attract wisdom: sit at least 5 hours facing the right direction

Everything you need to know about your personal right directions, can be found in the Diamond Feng Shui Essentials.

PLUS
If this is your own home or office, make sure that in the direction you are facing, there is an image that reflects what you wish.

In your Success direction you can hang:
a vision board with your goals.
an image of someone that is already successful in what you desire.

In your Health direction you can hang:
an image that represents your health goal.
an image of someone that already attained your goal.

In your Relationship direction you can hang:
an image that represents your relationship goals.
images of romance, friendship, family or teamwork depending on your goal.
an image of some people that already attained your goal.

In your Wisdom direction you can hang:
an image of the kind of wisdom you wish to attract.
an image of something or someone that represents the level of wisdom and knowledge you are looking for.

PLUS
Make sure that nothing that tells the opposite message is still around.
It is better to have nothing than the wrong image.
Let go of all blockages or storage in the area you wish to optimize.

Sixth Step: LET IT BE: Let the Universe fill in the How

As the Beatles already sang it… Let it be. When you have done all the right things to bring in the Law of Attraction in your home, you just let it be and start doing your normal work and living.
Diamond Feng Shui starts working within 9 seconds, 9 minutes, 9 weeks, or 9 months...
The more you combine the 3 aspects: Heavenly, Human and Earth luck, the faster it starts working.
The more you let it go, the more the universe can start bringing in the wonders of the Law of Attraction.

I have seen it working sometimes in 9 seconds, as people feel a definite shift in their awareness; others feel it after several weeks. If you don’t notice it, your friends and family will. It always becomes obvious but sometimes we don’t see the signs. And when it starts changing, be grateful, be happy so the universe can bring in more of the good that you have desired.

Good Fortune,

Marie Diamond

There is an Ocean of Abundance No Matter What is Happening in the World

Nothing can take an economy down faster than the uncertainty and loss of confidence by its people.

After the 9/11 Tragedy, we knew that the Stock Market was going to drop-that many businesses would take a tremendous toll – it didn’t take long for the experts to start predicting a recession and possibly a great financial downturn in the economy. The traditional media thrives on fear.

No questions that there are many businesses that are suffering – we all have been affected by the domino effect – and on the other hand, there are many businesses that are thriving, and doing very well.

This is a good time to remember the “bartender’s philosophy of business”: when things are great, business is great; when things are bad, business is great. There are always opportunities in the darkest hours.

There are many industries and businesses that are making money and thriving: flag manufacturers, printers who see the opportunities, t-shirt manufacturers (some of the most obvious), car rental companies, Amtrak, Greyhound, flower distributors, card manufacturers, television/radio ads and many others – and to speak the unspeakable – war has always been profitable.

CNN reported on Oct. 9 in the Money Line Program that Bio-tech companies, because of the biological warfare fears, now have a huge market growth opportunity, where as before the 9/11, office space in NY was scarce; computers had been sold out. Every single business in that building needed to be recreated somewhere.

There are stories of the large financial institutions who had prepared with an emergency plan and had their offices duplicated in New Jersey and were back to work within 48 hours – and not one client left them. And then there were others who lost their businesses entirely because they had no contingencies for a tragedy such as with WTC, the Pentagon and the plane disasters. There is a great profit to be made now from security. In our own offices, we purchased additional back up materials for our computers, and have looked at security measures – money is being made all over the place.

On October 11, it was reported, again on CNN, that the Markets had returned to the pre-9/11 average, and that the Government had done a great job at stabilizing the economy, and that Unemployment had not gone through the roof.

What you may need, is new “ears” and “eyes” to perceive the opportunities when unexpected events occur. The business of the News is to get you to stay glued to the television, radio, or for you to go to their web site, keep you there as much as possible, and link you to other services and sites-all income generators. To this day, negative news has been the attraction to the masses-many of us, specially publications like The Light Connection are working on changing that paradigm.

Until that day happens , watch your tendency to want to buy into the Mass Consciousness of Negativity. It’s like looking at a deadly accident on the road – not wanting to look but can’t help it.

The minute that you buy into the fear, the more that money will make a quick exit from your life. If you buy into the Collective Consciousness of lack and scarcity, you can kiss your prosperity consciousness good-bye.

One of the key components of fear-if not handled properly-is lack of energy. Very few people know how to turn fear into opportunity, so here are a few tips:

• Get energetically and physically prepared to handle the “emergency” – emerging out of a challenge. Take vitamins/immune boosters-stress creates disease-take long walks, yoga, exercise, do whatever you need to do to get your body moving and out of inaction, and the mass depression that has been in the air-and move into “action mode”.

• Any time you are having a down-turn in your financial picture, do a quick plan to recreate finances needed. Do a Budget to take you out of “mental panic.” Look at all the sources of money in your world; sell things, trade services, save, tithe, go into income-generating activities.

• Think laterally. Brainstorm with close friends and associates, and move into the mindset of a true entrepreneur-move into the mindset of a millionaire-and a person who is used to reaching the financial goals they set for themselves.

• Read publications like The Dynamics Laws of Prosperity by Catherine Ponder. No matter what spiritual path you follow, allow for the over-religious overtone to just be part of it and focus on the essence of those affirmations. Personally that book took me through a very rough financial patch; it supported me daily in remembering that true Prosperity Consciousness comes from within and trust in God.

• Read the financial news, both in writing and through radio or TV to see the opportunities. Learn to “see” as you never have before, and you look for the opportunities available to make money.

• Balance between the Spiritual and the Physical. Intend, affirm, and take action.

• Get support. Join a Mastermind Group, do this not only on-line but physically. Yes, you can get a lot of support through the Net, but there is nothing like the human touch and love and connection of other people. If you can feel yourself being supported by others, you will begin to accept the “invisible” support of the Universe and God.

• Do programs to expand your consciousness and to support you in clearing blocks to having what you want in life. If the funds are not there, pick up a great book at the library, or read your old notes from past programs that you may have attended.

• Move yourself into action. Move yourself into money-consciousness. Believe in miracles around money. Don’t exclude money because of old beliefs. This mindset will give you the energy to move forward and handle any financial challenges. To focus on handling money is like handling a physical disease, and it takes time, focus, attention and purpose.

If you don’t have what you want financially, trust the Laws of Prosperity, and know that possibly deep inside you may have blocks to feeling worthy, or negative conditioning that money is not spiritual, or people who have it have gotten it at the expense of others, or some other “garden variety” negative thought about money.

Lastly, remember: it is always a good time to make money. The opportunities are there.
