Wendell and Charmayne Vannatter asked:
Most people never really sit down and ask themselves, “How do I want to live my life?” “What kind of a house do I want to live in?” “What kind of car do I want to drive?” And the list can go on and on! How many people have really done that? Most people believe that those things will just come to them if they work hard. Why do they think that? Because they’ve been taught a lie! Have you ever really sat down and asked yourself any of these questions? To truly understand what I’m saying we need to backtrack a little.
So let’s ask ourselves this one question. What were we taught as children about jobs, work and careers, and most of all, success and education? I can sum it up in one statement, “Go to school, get a good education, get a good job and you will be successful!” WRONG! Now just wait a second before you write me off and click off this page!!! Let’s take a good honest look at what I’ve just said. Let’s look at the masses of Americans today. 95 to 97 percent of Americans today are broke. What do I mean by broke? They are just barely making it, especially in today’s economy. If they lost their jobs today, they would be on the street in less than 3 months time. Most people are in tremendous credit card debt. The last statistic I read, most Americans have seven credit cards, and all of them maxed out! Many Americans have over $100,000 in just credit card debt! Just credit card debt! Another statistic. 85 percent of college graduates never get a job in the field of their degree. And how much did they pay for that degree? Oh, and they have that debt to pay back too! I had a wise business friend once tell me, ” Wendell, the word job is just an acronym, it means Just Over Broke!” I took that to heart. I noticed in my own life, a job just barely made the bills! But that’s what we were taught in school, get a good education, then get a good job and we will be successful! It’s not working today. But it never really was supposed to work. Now, before you judge me as someone totally against education, hear me out. I’m really not. I think education is a wonderful thing! In fact, I think a person should always be learning. I think education is an ongoing, lifetime process. I believe education for educations sake is a good thing. We need to ask ourselves, why we were taught this. Why were we told to get a good education to get a job if it’s not going to bring us to financial independence? We need to backtrack a little further!
When this Country was founded, people were taught to work for themselves, to start their own business! They were taught, “If you want to be successful and financially independent, you have to have your own business.” People came to this Country from all over the world to be free! To have their own business! NOT TO WORK FOR SOMEONE ELSE! They wanted to be free. Remember that 95 to 97 percent number in the previous paragraph? It has another fact tied to it too. 95 to 97 percent of Americans today WORK FOR SOMEONE ELSE! They don’t own their own business, they have jobs. 150 years ago, that number was reversed. 95 to 97 percent of Americans owned their own business and only 3 to 5 percent worked for someone else. What changed? Around the turn of the last century America went through what was called the industrial revolution. Huge companies came into existence. They needed one crucial component to operate: EMPLOYEES! The government instituted the corporation status for tax purposes with these huge companies. And at the same time was the beginning of the State and Federal involvement in the school systems. They now had an endless supply of employees! The schools started teaching, “Get a good education, get a good job with a good company and you will be successful!”
Is it starting to make sense to you now?
We were never taught in school, NEVER, to go out and start our own business! We were never taught to design our life and then create an income stream to support that lifestyle. Were you ever asked in school those first questions I asked? “How do you want to live your life?” “What kind of house do you want to live in?” “Do you want to drive a Porsche, or Corvette?” “Do you want to have a second home in the Cayman Islands?” Well if you want those things, don’t get a job at McDonalds! You will need a little more income then what they provide! Have you noticed in life, that the people with that kind of lifestyle are usually business owners? Well, I’m here to tell you, THAT YOU CAN HAVE THAT KIND OF LIFESTYLE TOO! You just need to be in business for yourself. REMEMBER: An employer will only pay you what it costs to replace you! To achieve financial independence, you must have your own business!
What do you have to do to have your own business? Really, it’s quite simple. First, you have to believe that you can have more in life. You have to believe that you deserve more in life then what you have. You have to believe!! It may sound simple, even foolish, but you need to talk to yourself, out loud, and tell yourself that you can, you will succeed! Tell yourself that you deserve more in life then what you currently have. Keep telling yourself until, without a shadow of a doubt, YOU BELIEVE IT! Remember: “Whatsoever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it will achieve!” The mind is a powerful thing, it all starts with believing!
Second, you need to have a burning desire to have more in life then what you now have. Not just a want, but a burning desire! You need to think about it, dream about it, and always be talking about it. A willingness to do whatever it takes to achieve your dreams! You have to do more than what the masses are doing. Remember, 95 to 97 percent of the masses are failing! You have to do something different and do more than what the masses are doing to be successful. Write your dreams down on paper. Put them on your refrigerator door, where you will see them every day. Think about them day and night. Don’t be afraid to dream again! As children, we were not afraid to dream. What happened? We were either told to quit dreaming, or we realized that we would not achieve our dreams. So we just stopped dreaming. Well, I’m here to tell you, start dreaming again!!! Because you can achieve them. You just need the right vehicle. What do I mean by a vehicle? Your job or business is just a vehicle to get you where you want to go in life. You want to end up at financial independence. A job is just a very slow, failing way to get there. Owning your own profitable online business is the fast way to get there.
Ask yourself, right now, “How do I want to live?” I had to ask myself that same question some years ago. I had created several, successful “brick and mortar” businesses. By that I mean, conventional businesses. Buildings, products, employees, the usual type of business. I grew really tired of it. Don’t get me wrong, I was making very good money in many of them, but I had no time. I always had to be at the business. I had the headache of dealing with employees and all their problems. And it goes on and on! I finally sat down one day and just listed out the things I wanted from, what I called the perfect business. Now mind you, I had no idea what that business would be. I just knew what I wanted in a business after going through so many conventional businesses. It almost sounded like a “Pie in the sky” idea. I had no idea if anything like this existed. I just knew how I wanted to live my life and how I wanted to work my business. If it didn’t exist, I was just going to create it. I wanted to work from home, with no employees. I wanted it portable. To be able to work it from a beach in Hawaii if I wanted. A Profitable Online Business Idea is what I came up with.
There is an old saying, “When the student is ready, the teacher will appear.” And that stands true today. I got online and started researching. I tried several things, and failed. Actually I tried quite a few things and failed. MLM’S, online scams you name it. But the key is, I kept trying. I didn’t give up. And I finally found a system that really works.
The Third thing you need is a successful, proven system that allows anyone to join right in and start with an equal footing, or level playing field. You can do as I did and go through the mine field and get blown up. And if you don’t give up, eventually you will find the right system that works for you. Or you can do it the easy way and learn from my mistakes. Wise people learn from other peoples mistakes. I know what you are thinking; I had the same thoughts myself. How do I tell the scams from the real thing? The system I chose had a standalone product that was worth more than the entry price alone. That in itself showed me their legitimacy. Everything I needed to operate my new business came with the entry price. And they are always there to help with any questions I may have. Many systems out there today claim to do this. But what you find out, like I did, was you need to purchase one more thing, then one more thing and on and on! You don’t have to re-invent the wheel, and you don’t have to be the first through the mine field. Sometimes it’s all just a matter of a step of faith. Choose to change your life today! Take a step of faith to get out of the rat race! It’s all waiting out there for you. You just need to take that first step. Believe that you can and then make a decision to DO something. Take action to change your life today!

How To Choose The Perfect Fireplace
