Packed with useful ideas , February 17, 2009
Jim Donovan, author of STOP LIVING PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK asks this provocative question on the
back of his book: Would you like to know how to make
money without leaving your present job or risking your
savings--even if you're starting from scratch with little or no money?
If the answer is "yes," then this is a title that you should
read right away. . . and even if you aren't sure of your answer,
you still might want to get hold of it just to get you thinking.
Donovan begins with a review of attitudes about money--and
why it is important to allow abundance . . . he writes that
it is important:
* To see yourself as a positive, generous, wealthy person. Affirm,
"I am wealthy and use my wealth for good for myself and others."
From there, he stresses the need to take action:
* One of the things that prevents many people from changing
their money situation is the belief that they need to know
everything before starting. Start first, refine later. Jump in
and get your feet wet.
But Donovan just doesn't make suggestions; he also
presents specific ways to do this via providing a service business,
eBay, network marketing, Google AdSense, etc. . . . the
key is to always remember:
* Whatever you do, in any transaction, make sure it's a win for
everyone. If it's not, then it's not a win for anyone. There are no
exceptions to this. A good deal always benefits all parties.
I also liked his advice on getting ahead, in general:
* As my friend and hero Charlie "Tremendous" Jones said: "In
five years, you will be the same person that you are today with
two exceptions, the books you read and the people that you hang
out with." Being around people at network marketing gatherings
is a good way to immerse yourself in positive energy on a regular
basis.
Though STOP LIVING is just 100 pages in length, it is
packed with useful ideas that make it the ideal gift for both
children and grandchildren, friends and even yourself.
