Higher Home Business Opportunity

Some new pages have been added to the main site...

Network Marketing

Home Based Business

Network Marketing Leads

and Financial Freedom

But why home business opportunity?

By way of an answer, I can tell you that the transformative freedom offered by a home business opportunity , and a renewed outlook on such pursuits offers opportunities for self improvement and personal growth unavailable by any other means.

The featured article in this issue will delve deeper into the subject.
------------------------------------

One lesson from the experience is that not all internet services are as reliable as Site Build It! The Results of using SBI for your home business opportunity (or for any web presence you might require) are so remarkable that a whole web site has been erected to show it off.

Around 150 SBI web sites where selected at random to demonstrate the power and effectiveness of SBI. These sites have risen to the top 3% most visited of all web sites on the net.

I'm proud to be one of the sites so honored!

Click here to visit the Site Build It Results page.

Read the whole page, then click on the Self Help section of the category list. You'll find Higher Self Improvement Pursuits listed second in that category.

I've been telling you for some time about the power and ease of SBI. Now it's official according to Alexa Web Rating.

Allow me to say... I told you so!

Stick with me... the best is yet to be;-)

(And if you've been thinking of home business opportunities, SBI or any sort of web presence but still have questions... you can always contact me, of course. But now there is an official SBI Questions website! You can submit any questions you'd like, by phone, email or e-chat. We'll discuss the new LIVE questions feature in more detail below. For now, you'll find the Questions site here. You'll be in the Top 3% in no time.)

========================================

Let's count our Blessings!

Earlier this week I was "cursing" my computer woes as I had contracted that "worm". I performed a couple of days of "desk top surgery" and underwent a "worm-ectomy".

The next thing you know, all the power in several states of the North Eastern U.S. was simply gone.

Put my problems into perspective... Big Time.

(Did the two have anything to do with each other? Never mind... just my conspiratorial streak surfacing again.)

I hope you made it through O.K.

===============================================

Feature Article: On Higher Home Business Opportunity

Always on the prowl for methods to positively alter states and transform reality, I've known for some time that a home business opportunity is a long standing pathway to this end.

The journey from employee, barely "making ends meet", with little time for higher self improvement pursuits, to entrepreneur with plenty of time and money to indulge our evolutionary and transformative potentials can now be accelerated.

And what's more, the journey itself, at least on the "fast track" requires mind-set alterations which we as self improvers and personal developers find right up our alley.

We're used to this!

Failing to associate these skills and gifts with money, wealth building and abundance could have several contributing factors... including misgivings about the "pursuit" of wealth.

Well, guess what? You won't have to pursue money. Minor mental adjustments and Spiritual acceptance seem to send money on a hunt for YOU.

We're All "Works In Progress

This is the nature of home based business and home business opportunities as presented here. A true exploration and expression of Self... daring to display, not only your findings but the very pursuit itself for all to see (perhaps even in the top 3% of the web;-), brings you all the money you'll need.

I believe that our destiny is defined and refined by our quests. POWER, mixed with a thirst for unbridled SELF EXPRESSION moves us all.

Mankind is searching for power, ability and strength. Even in our sleep we dream of a higher competence.

Yet most of us, when considered honestly, are ashamed.

We don't consciously decide to be small, to be drone followers who labor for an income that isn't even enough to take the occasional vacation.

"When people are free to do as they please, they usually imitate each other." -- Eric Hoffer

Still, we're bullied into fitting in, being liked by all, and following "tradition"... running with the herd.

Over time, dreams are forgotten. We're stripped of our true imagination and our authenticity.

Self improvement isn't parroting an affirmation which simply eases our conscience while we accept the crap dished out by co-workers who work just hard enough to keep from being fired or companies that only pay enough so you won't quit (or feel you can't)

Home based businesses today offer extra-ordinary opportunities for personal development and growth.

I've mentioned in this publication the self improvement potentials of tools like Site Build It and the "instant asset" of an SBI supported web presence. But network marketing goes a long way in this direction too.

You develop people skills, patience, enhanced powers of expression and other required characteristics for the transition from mere employee to "free agent".

In fact, a rehabilitation of the whole person mentally, emotionally, physically and Spiritually is both required and made possible by such pursuits.

In fact, un-learning what has been drilled into us since grade school (and earlier) is one of the most appealing and necessary aspects of profitable home business opportunities.

New attitudes toward , job "security", retirement, assets, liabilities, debt and (so-called) "failure" are just some of the areas where "the rich" posses different attitudes than the mass of humanity.

Networking "Our Way"

So often we of higher self improvement aspiration are forced to "go it alone". We are often reluctant to announce belief in our potentials, so often surrounded by those who, through limiting their own potential would mock and ridicule us. Thus we'd prefer to go it on our own.

Often with all our insight and meditative ways, its embarrassing to find ourselves "broke".

It can be disheartening and that is where a network of like minded individuals with similar aspirations (and mind-set) is so helpful.

The days of the robber barons and rugged individualists are behind us.

Dangers of Network Marketing

One danger for us of moving into an online business is getting "caught up" in the whole "web thing". The world becomes your audience and the profit potential so great that one might be seduced by it all... "lulled to sleep", so to speak, when "Awakening" is our "way".

It can be overwhelming, but our network helps us maintain our bearings.

We remind each other of our true talents and skills... what we're really here to display.

And thank Goodness for the Site Build It package. The whole webmaster thing can be daunting in itself. And although SBI is now compatible with any HTML editor, I personally don't aspire to "java script" wizardry.

With SBI the emphasis is on the authentic YOU... it's discovery, development and expression. The "tech-ie" stuff stays behind the scenes.

Then there is the "downline" who, in many ways becomes our "following". Be mindful of your influence.

We must share our power. That is how we prosper... by seeing to the prosperity of those who come behind us. But some are only "in it" for the money. A lot of these same people will realize the prosperity you offer... to the benefit of themselves and their families.

(It is a "higher" way. Just like the SBI contest ... you enter by considering other people you know who might benefit from this "instant" asset.)

However, it is usually those who are in it only for the money that refuse to make the "mental shifts" necessary to break free of the "hours for dollars" and "where is my paycheck" (W.I.M.P.!), employee mindset. These often quit in frustration.

"A winner listens, a loser just waits until it is his turn to talk"

You'll find that some people aren't interested in transformative lifestyles.

Imagine!

Still we must honor the boundaries of those we "recruit", respect their current sensibilities and continue "to know" within ourselves while still "being there" for those who have yet to seek higher pursuits.

Wealth is a by-product of a sincere pursuit of higher self expression.

Today, the standard bearer of online network marketing companies is The Six Figure Income marketing group (SFI).

A well established company founded by Gery Carson who himself is "into" self improvement. He is also always "tweaking the model" to make it easier for the newcomer to get started and the seasoned vets to capitalize on their expertise.

Combine this "primary" home business opportunity with an up-and-coming advertising consortium by the name of Traffic Oasis and you'll see the potential for an almost auto pilot path to wealth creation.

Traffic Oasis (which has actual six figure income earners working side by side with the average Joe) pools advertising / promotional dollars and divides the resulting "shares" among its members. With this level of power, home business builders can sift and sort through network marketing leads.

No longer do we harass and convince. We look for leadership and vision similar to our own, then pass on the keys we've been given (and continue to wield).

An Invitation

I humbly invite any subscriber to Higher Activation to join me in these pursuits.

It's not (so much) about the money, but moving beyond the concern for money. It's about proceeding with our quest for evolutionary transformation without the distraction of how our bills get paid.

What is important is striving, learning, doing our best to develop our personal power

Its a matter of becoming. The wealth then becomes an outward sign (to you alone) of what you've become.

Don't Quit Your Day Job

We don't want this undertaking to create more stress for us. We don't have to.

Businesses like network marketing can be profitably pursued on part time basis. When this method of asset production gains momentum (with which I'd be more than happy to help), you will have developed the "wisdom" to know when the time is right to step out of the rat race.

How Much is Enough?

Considering the fact that our supply is infinite, then enough is probably the amount that allows you to live as you would wish to live whether you are working or not.

You then choose when to play and when to work as you feel like, not because you need money. Hence, conditionality and need move away from you and let you explore aspects of life other than money... like Higher Self Improvement Pursuits.

"The Secret of How to Change Your Life"


by Bill Harris
Centerpointe Research Institute

Spend a moment contemplating deeply what I'm going to say, because I think it is very important. It is, in fact, often the biggest stumbling block people have in their attempts to become happier, more successful, and more peaceful.

I often receive letters or e-mails from people who are unhappy and desperately want to change something in their life. Sometimes they want to end a chronic and negative emotional state that has taken over, such as anxiety, depression, fear, or anger. Sometimes they are experiencing one drama or crisis after another, and cannot seem stop this cycle. Sometimes it is a substance abuse problem, or a problem of being in and staying in an abusive situation. Sometimes it is a lack of money or personal success, or an inability to create what they want in the world.

Whatever it is, these people write asking for my suggestions. I write back and tell them what I think. In response to my suggestions, I often hear back from them something like this: "I tried that. It isn't me." Or, "I read that book, and there wasn't anything in it that resonated with me." Or, they say: "I can't, because ...." Sometimes they say, "It's just my nature to be (fill in the blank)." Or, "That goes against my values, beliefs (or whatever)."

At that point, we get down to brass tacks, because now I really begin to understand what the problem is. It's that they think they're going to stay the way they are, continue to think the way they think, continue to act the way they act, and yet somehow THEIR PROBLEM IS GOING TO CHANGE OR GO AWAY!

So let's get really clear about one fundamental truth about life and about change: if you continue to think the way you are thinking now, and continue to act the way you are acting now, you will continue to get the same results you are getting now. There are no exceptions to this.

The life you are leading - the amount of success you enjoy, the amount of money you make, the kind and quality of your personal relationships, the amount of pain or pleasure in your life, the amount of drama and crisis, or stability and inner peace, in your life, the amount of emotional pain or emotional balance you experience - are all the direct result of how you think and how you act.

They are NOT the result of your environment, other people, luck, the alignment of the planets, or the telepathic mind control techniques of evil aliens.

This means that if you want to change your circumstances and your results in life, you must change how you think and how you act. If you are determined to continue thinking and acting in the same way, resign yourself to getting the same results, because (trust me) that is what will happen.

So how do you know what changes to make in how you think and act? Find out how other people who are getting the results you want are thinking and acting, and copy what they are doing. If you think and act in the same way as people who are getting the kinds of results you want, you will get those results too. This ALWAYS works.

The problem comes from your resistance to doing it. I get many letters from people who complain of lack of material resources, for instance, but when I suggest thinking and acting like those who are making a lot of money, they tell me they can't. Making money isn't spiritual, they say, or it exploits people, or they don't have the energy, or they aren't smart enough, or whatever. If that's what you think, you're right, you will never become prosperous, because prosperous people do not have those beliefs. To be prosperous, you must find out what prosperous people believe and adopt those beliefs. You must find out what their values are, and adopt them. You must find out what their internal strategies for making decisions are, and adopt them. And so on.

Unless you accidentally trip over buried treasure or win the lottery (I know some of you actually think you will), there is NO OTHER WAY to become prosperous than to adopt the beliefs, values, attitudes and mental strategies of prosperous people - and then take action in the same way prosperous people take action.

The same can be said for creating inner peace, creating loving relationships, or any other desirable outcome. Find out how those who are already doing it have constructed their inner map of reality, and adopt the same inner map for yourself. Then, take the same actions. If you do this, you will succeed.

If you insist on keeping your beliefs, values, strategies, and the other aspects of your map of reality, and just cannot get yourself to adopt those of the people who are creating what you want to create, then be prepared to continue getting the same results you've been getting, because that's what is going to happen. Your life results follow directly from how you think and act, and there is no getting around this.

How to do you find out what the people you want to model believe, value, and so on? How do you learn their strategies and actions? You can find this information from books, or from people in person. You can find it on audio cassettes. If you look for it, it is all around you. In these articles, I'm giving you huge clues in how to do this. I'm particularly trying to paint a very clear picture of all the aspects of how people do the "think" part of thinking and acting, but I also throw in some of the "action" part from time to time as well.

The only thing that is keeping most people from getting what they want in life is that they haven't yet figured out that:

1) Whatever results you get in life flow from how you think and act, and

2) To change your results you MUST change how you do these two things.

If you like your current results, great. If not, you now know what to do.

Finally, using the Centerpointe program helps this process immeasurably because it creates increased conscious awareness, increased ability to watch yourself create whatever it is you are creating in your life. As you watch and become more aware, those parts of your way of thinking and acting that do not serve you begin to fall away and are replaced by more resourceful ways of living. If you are consciously modeling those who are creating what you want to create, it only accelerates the process. Becoming more conscious causes everything fall into place. So keep listening to those Holosync soundtracks (or get in the program if you're still procrastinating).

Anyone who is still breathing can change how they think and act and get any result they want in life, whether material, emotional, physical, or spiritual - including you. So what are you waiting for?

Hope this helps.

Director, Centerpointe Research Institute



Here is an excerpt from Ken Evoy's recent newsletter to 5 Pillar Affiliates.

(Since the topic of this issue is Home Business Opportunity, I would be remiss if I didn't mention what has been hailed as "The best affiliate program on the net".

Sitesell's 5 Pillar Affiliate Program isn't Network Marketing but is practically indispensable in generating serious revenue in ANY online enterprise. A definite Must See.)

I couldn't put the new "Questions" feature into better perspective if I tried...
----------------------------------------------------

Every business is different. Despite that, almost every small business could use SBI! -- no matter what they do...
Click here and go to the section titled Who Gets the Most Out of Site Build It!?...

... they all *NEED* SBI!.

So why doesn't everyone buy?

Great question! Here are just a few reasons why visitors come "oh so close," but don't quite make the right choice and use SBI! to build a high-ROI (Return On Investment) online presence, no matter what the nature of their business may be...

"SBI! is for newbies, not me."

"I've tried the Net before -- the Net does not work."

"Maybe next month."

"You can't create your own look and feel, do javascript, etc."

"What if it's a hoax? It sounds too good to be true."

"SBI! sounds great. But I just have no time to do it."

In short...

They have questions, objections, worries, misconceptions, or myths. All of them are easily corrected, but only if we get a chance to talk to these folks.

All we need to do is put these "oh so close" prospective customers in touch with a real, live human being and answer their questions, or provide proof that their worries or objections are misplaced (sample answers below)...

--

MISCONCEPTION OF A WEB PRO... "SBI! is for newbies, not me." (The too-savvy pro.)

ANSWER... "SBI! is for everyone, including the most sophisticated of professional Webmasters. Productivity is enormous. Results are far easier and faster to get, no matter how savvy you are."

--

BUILD-AND-DIE VICTIM "I've tried the Net before -- the Net does not work."

ANSWER... "Your last attempt at using the Net did not work. But let me explain how and why SBI! will do what you need..."

--

THE PROCRASTINATOR "Maybe next month."

ANSWER... "There's no time like the present. Tell me a bit more about your business and how an online presence could help, and I'll try to show you why you need to start, ASAP, today."

and...

"Please visit http://results.sitesell.com -- these are results that canNOT be faked and that you'll never see anywhere else. If you EVER don't like it, just refund. But do start... start right now -- it will be the single best thing you do this year."

--

MISCONCEPTION OF A WEB PRO... "You can't create your own look and feel, do javascript, etc."

ANSWER... "SBI!'s flexibility has been excellent since we've introduced full customization ability of all templates. But now that we've launched the HTML Editor Compatibility module, you have the best of both worlds."

--

THE WORRIER... "What if it's a hoax? It sounds too good to be true."

ANSWER... This person really just needs to hear a warm voice, to be reassured that this is a real business, with real people who stand behind SBI!. They typically have one or two simple questions, but their real need is reassurance.

--

THE TOO-BUSY SMALL BUSINESS PERSON "SBI! sounds great. But I just have no time to do it."

ANSWER... "No time for it? No problem. You can hire an SBI! Certified Webmaster, someone who is an SBI! specialist and who has created successful, profitable sites to do it for you."

--

And so on, and so forth. The key point is this...

For every ONE who buys, 10 come very, very close. So close.

Once they make the mistake to opt for "old-fashioned" Web hosting, they're cooked. They spend thousands of dollars for a designer to put up a site.

Three months later, that small business person calls the designer and asks...

"Where's the traffic?"

Ouch. Too late.

So make sure your audience asks the questions/worries/ objections/misconceptions that folks do have right at the moment when they are on the site... right WHEN they need it.

Either tell them to USE the "call, chat or e-mail us" feature on the site. Tell them that the advisors are all successful SBI! users who can answer questions and worries. And, if SBI! is NOT right for them, we'll tell them that, too.

Or send your readers/visitors directly to...
Site Build It Questions

One way or another, put our team of SBI! Advisors to work.
-----------------------------------

There you have it. Strait from the Man himself. Hit them with your toughest questions.

And even if an effective web presence isn't part of your home based business opportunity plans, you'll gain some insight. And that is what Higher Activation is all about.
