Your Biggest Computer is Free

I often hear a lot of people talking about buying a bigger, better computer. They want it to be the newest that they can find with all of the latest technology. You wouldn’t believe the fortunes that people are spending on their technological gadgets these days. It is like we have forgotten all about what we can do and are just leaving it to our robotic devices. Well, I am here to tell you that your biggest computer is free. And it is your brain.

Instead of wasting so much time trying to find a computer that is going to do all of your work for you, try using your head! It sounds a bit harsh, but at least I am telling the truth. Stop doubting your capabilities as a network marketer. That is where we all go wrong. We simply do not have enough belief in our own abilities. Think of your mind as being very similar to an actual computer. You have the ability to store, create, and remember the same information as your computer does. And in actuality, our minds store everything that happens to us in our lives. When we really sit down and think, we can “pull up” useful information that we are needing at the time, just like a computer!

Did you know that it has been proven that we only use a small portion of our brain power? I believe the exact amount is 10%. Yes, it is true. The majority of us are not using our heads! We are leaving it all to the latest technology to do our thinking for us. Have you ever heard of something so ridiculous? Not that I have anything at all against computers and technology, it is just that we could be doing so much more as far as our own individual mental capacity goes. Think of your brain as a computer that is continuously calculating information. The next time that you sit down to read another how-to article about building an email list or someone’s success story as an affiliate marketer, make a real note of what you are reading inside of your own mind. Don’t just save the page to your favorites and forget about it!

All too often, I have noticed that there are a lot of people out there who find great information, read it, save it, and ultimately forget what they have read and forget that they even have it on their computers! Oh, that retched bookmark tab! It is a wonderful tool to have, but unfortunately, most of us just spend our time surfing the web and reading everything that we can get our hands on. Let me tell you something that you need to remember: All of these informative guides and eBooks all basically say the same thing! They are telling you that you can do it and become successful. So, it is time that you stop doubting what you can do and put the information that you know to use. Put what you know into action and you won’t be disappointed.

Keep on keeping on!

A Direction for Your Life

If someone were to ask you what the purpose of your life is, would you have an answer? Most people would, but the majority of the answers would not be valid. Most would answer, “To raise my children,” or “To be wealthy!” These are goals that one might set, but are far from being an overall purpose. 

“An action in course of execution.” -Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary

A purpose is something that you want to do throughout your life, regardless of other goals. It must be intermeshed with those goals, but it is NOT those goals. It is a reason to live, to exist, and a way to make a difference. Your purpose is something that will encompass all of the years of your life. Everything that you do will either align with your purpose or further it.

The Need for a Purpose

“All great success starts with selecting one major, definite purpose.” –Brian Tracy, The Psychology of Achievement

A purpose in life is what defines everyone. If you wake up in the morning, go to work, come home, go to sleep, and do the same thing day in and day out for the rest of your life, then you have no purpose. A side effect of not having a purpose is that you will not set goals for yourself. Without purpose, what would be the point? Without purpose, you have only the concept of survival.

Look at the major successful individuals of the world, be they business people, politicians, doctors, or even lawyers. Every one of them has a cause that they are passionate about. It might be animal rights, or even saving the environment. This cause, their purpose, is what has driven them throughout their lives to constantly reach further, to take an extra step towards their goals every single day. Purpose is a requirement for success. You cannot achieve one without the other.

Choosing Your Purpose

Before actually choosing your purpose, take a moment to consider your passions. What are you fascinated with? What is important to you? Is there some wrong being committed everyday that leaves you saying, “Someone should do something about that.” Does a hungry child break your heart? Do you wonder why no one is feeding them? Look inside yourself and find out what you feel strongly about and you will likely have your purpose.

When you consider a possible life-long purpose, take into account those very words, “life-long.” Is your purpose something that will still be this important to you in sixty years? Is it important enough to invest years of your life into? It is vital that you should be committed to whatever purpose you choose. If not, then you are merely wasting years of your life.

Lastly, when choosing your purpose, you must be certain that it is enough. You have to be able to lay down in the evening and say, “I did a good thing today.” It must be enough of an impact for you to believe that you are doing something great for the larger cause. Purpose is a reflection of self. If we do not believe one hundred percent in our purpose, we will not believe in ourselves. If we do not believe in ourselves, we will never achieve success within our own hearts and minds.

Reaching your Ultimate Potential

A popular mindset in today’s society is the belief that we should live one day at a time and accept our life stations. While it is commendable to be able to enjoy your life at every moment, a lack of looking to the future can be hindering to say the least. Take the example of a boat at sea. The captain of this ship is in the middle of the ocean with no compass. He wants to reach a certain point, but has no map or a plan to get there. He is just hoping that the waves will happen to push him in the right direction. His chances of reaching his destination are pretty much zero. He knows where he wants to go, but has no plan on how to get there. He is lost at sea.

Those who do not place goals in their lives are pretty much captains of that very same boat. They will end up tossed on the waves, going whichever way the wind blows. They wish and want, but they do not take the necessary steps to get there. They do not plan ahead. A map of your life is an integral part of reaching your goals and achieving personal success. This holds true for every aspect of your life, from financial all the way down to the minor aspects, such as where you live.

Why do I Need Goals?

“Man’s need for meaning and purpose is the greatest single drive in human nature.” -Brian Tracy, The Psychology of Achievement

Often we think that we have it made. Nevertheless, regardless of your current station in life, you will inevitably find that you are not happy because you have no purpose. A life without goals is a life without purpose. There is something inside the hearts and minds of humankind that drives us to go further. We must be doing something, reaching for some better way. This is the very same concept that was found in the many great inventors of the past. They had to shoot for something bigger, something unknown to them. They did not do it for the money, but rather to improve things within their lives as well as to impact the world. Humankind simply must have a purpose to achieve personal success.

What should my Goals be?

First, before even considering your long-term and short-term goals, take into consideration your ideas. Very often people see a rich guru on television marketing an idea or a product that they had thought about years before. He or she might have been that rich millionaire if only they had taken their ideas seriously. Make it a point to write your ideas down and insert them into your goals. Do not simply consider and idea and toss it to the side. Plan out how you can see it to fruition.

As for the legitimacy of your goals, use common sense, but do not be afraid to dream. Base your goals on what you want out of life, of what you wish to ultimately become. Do not listen to those around you who tell you that you cannot possibly achieve something. Your boundaries are those that you set. Do not allow others to set them for you.

Plan your goals one step at a time. Do not write down that you want to go to college, then on the next page put that you want to be rich. That is the equivalent of the ship lost at sea. Plan out each step of your goals, each section of your life. Do not just put where you want to be, but log how you plan on getting there. Just saying that you want to reach a particular point is not enough.

An individual that has what he or she considers a truly successful life of achievement is one that recognizes the fact that we must have somewhere to go, and a map to get there. This is where most people drop the ball. They have somewhere that they want to be, but they have no idea, no plan, on how to get there. Set goals, utilize your ideas, and aim for a future of achievement.

The Bonds of Money

Money is, unfortunately, a requirement in today’s society. How much money we have is all too often the manner in which many people identify how successful we are. You must break the bonds of that point of view. Success can be measured in so many ways, and often money is the least of these. Of course, it is important to avoid debt as much as humanly possible, but do not measure your success by how little you owe or how much you have. Also, do not put too much credit on how successful other people think you are. The individual that is seeking it can be the only one to measure personal success. The opinions of those from the outside looking in will only hinder you. You will never find inner peace, achievement, or happiness through the opinions of others.

What is Financial Freedom?

“We cannot enjoy life if we’re worried over not having enough money.” – Brian Tracy, The Psychology of Achievement

Financial freedom is not a lack of debt or a multitude of dollar bills. It cannot be measured by some universal set amount of cash that you have stored up in the bank. Truthfully, financial freedom has a different dollar sign for everyone. For the poor man who is out of work and cannot afford to buy his family food, financial freedom might be three hundred dollars per week, or less. For the blue-collar worker who has three children and a two-bedroom house, financial freedom may be defined as enough money to get a bigger house.

You see, there are two financial aspects that are often confused. There are wants and then there are needs. Somewhere between those two, there is financial freedom. Wants are things that we do not necessarily need, but that catch our eyes. These are things that are not a requirement for our lives to be complete, but would be nice to have regardless. The needs are things that we have to have to survive. These consist of a home, a vehicle, food, clothing, and enough money to cover the utilities. They are the must-haves of life.

Lurking somewhere between the two are financial freedom. There is enough money to survive with a decent amount left over to enjoy a few luxuries occasionally. There is no danger of losing everything, or anything, though you might not have enough to buy a new car on a whim. Financial freedom is not being rich, as we often think. It is simply having the ability to be able to set goals without worrying about money. It is exactly what the term says, freedom from financial worries.

How Can I Achieve Financial Freedom?

This is a fairly simple process. First, set goals. Figure out how much money you need to bring in to lead a comfortable life early on. Toss out the concept of getting rich as your solution. If by some slim chance that should happen, then bravo for you. Nevertheless, do not under any circumstances factor that in or count on it. Simply figure out your monthly bills, add them all up, divide them by four, and see how much you need. Do not forget the minor aspects, such as fuel expenses and insurance. Be very thorough!

Once you have all this added up, begin to figure out how you can bring in this much money. Make your solution one that you can edit later on. Do not choose a career that tops out where you will make just enough to reach this point. Choose something that you can move up in. Once you reach your comfort level at this point, create a new plan that will take you to the next level. Do not make huge jumps in your plans. Just take it one level at a time, constantly working towards your next goal. As time goes by, you will see that you are getting further away from the “needs” point and nearing the “wants.”

The goal that we need to reach for when seeking financial freedom is, simply put, a lack of worry. Statistics state that the majority of people in the United States alone are one paycheck away from total loss. Those who accept this as a fact of life are those who will never achieve financial freedom or internal success. Plan your life out, step by step. Do not allow financial worries to stand in your way. Use common sense and a well-written blueprint to achieve your ultimate life goals.

Love Equals Life

You can have all the money in the world, the best business, a luxurious mansion on a hill, drive the newest sports-car on the market, and still not have a successful life of achievement if you do not have loving relationships. Healthy relationships are an absolute requirement for full internal and external success. If one does not have loved ones, then he/she is not a complete success. It is simply a requirement of the human condition. Consider the world’s most successful individuals, entrepreneurs, CEO’s, major marketing experts, etc. The one thing that the majority of these individuals have in common is that they are happily married with children that they love. This is not a coincidence. These individuals are successful only because they know that success cannot be achieved only by monetary means. Their true success was found in their hearts and the hearts of others.

Why Love?

“The purpose of life is to develop loving relationships. When we look back over our lives, we find that the most enjoyable times were shared with those we love. Love grows only sharing. The more you give away, the more you get back If we can learn to love ourselves and others, we can then go on to the full realization of our human destiny.” -Brian Tracy, The Psychology of Achievement

There are certain aspects of a life that signifies if it was a successful one. There is the financial end, the healthy aspect, the dreams that were achieved, and a few more. Many of these aspects can be considered as optional. Loving and successful relationships, however, are always a necessity. If a person is successful throughout his or her life and dies alone and lonely, then no one sees them as one who has lived a good and successful life. You need at least, the very minimum, of one special friend and one loving mate to be completely successful, even in your own eyes.

That Special Someone

In no way are we telling you to go out, find someone that you might like today, and run off and get married. There is a difference between a relationship and a loving relationship. If we have an archenemy, then that is a relationship. Granted, it is not a healthy one, but it is a relationship nonetheless.

You do not have to actively look for that special someone. It is not necessary to actually go hunting for them. To be honest, this often ends in tragedy. The trick is not to hunt for this person, but merely to be open to them when they do come. Don’t search, but keep your eyes open. At some point, you will stumble upon the right person, and it’s very important that you know them when they show themselves.

How Will I Know?

Recognizing the right person is a difficult task, at best. All too often we second guess ourselves. When the right person comes along, we wonder if we are making a bad choice. Usually we do this because we look at only the negative aspects of a person, be it physical, emotional, or mental. There are a few aspects one can look at to see if you are compatible and have a good chance at building a healthy relationship.

First, look at the individual’s goals. If your goals are to start your own business in your hometown and build it up over the years and their goals are to move to a foreign country, then obviously there will be issues. For this to even come close to working someone would have to give up on his or her dreams. If you have to surrender your dreams and life goals for someone, then there is a high probability that this is not the love of your life. Make certain that your goals and dreams are compatible.

Then, instead of focusing on the negative aspects of the possible significant other, look within yourself. Do you want to give everything to make this person smile? Does a moment alone with this person walking on the beach mean more to you than a full year of making money? When you give to this person, do you expect something in return or is it simple enough to have them near? Then, once you have answered all these questions, ask yourself if you honestly believe that the other person will have the exact same answers if they asked themselves the same questions. If the answer is yes, you likely have a winner.

Other Relationships

Relationships are important on a wider scale than merely that of the spouse. It is important to make good friends who would be there for you at a moments notice in your times of need. The best way to do this is to offer that same thing to others. When someone is suffering, be there. Ask nothing in return. Drop everything to be a friend.

The same holds true for children. If you have children, do not simply assume that fathering them was enough. Spend quality time with them. Take one day per week out and focus completely on them. Sacrifice time to go to their games, recitals, or any other activity that they are involved in. Time is your key here. To your children, though they likely will not realize it until they mature, your time is the most valuable asset, your greatest gift.

To reach a point in our lives where we consider ourselves successful achievers, we must always include the aspect of successful relationships. Along the way it might seem as if such things were too time-consuming and can wait until later on, after we have achieved financial success, but in the long run, we will find that we wasted years of our lives seeking our goals alone. True success can be multiplied by two, three, and so on. Do not seek achievement on the road of life alone.

Success and Achievement Begins with You!

One of the key factors of a successful life is health and energy. All too often, these factors are overlooked for the more prominent aspects, such as control and long term planning. Nevertheless, if you are living an unhealthy lifestyle and lacking in energetic momentum, all the rest will soon fall to the wayside. Good health and energy are integral in reaching your long-term goals as well as simply enjoying the here and now.

One Wheel on the Vehicle to Success

“If we don’t have good health and energy, we don’t get much satisfaction out of life” – Brian Tracy, The Psychology of Achievement

One might wonder why poor health would impact a person’s success outside of the medical realm. The answer can be summed up in one dreadful word, depression. Regardless of whether the health issue is physical, mental, or emotional, depression can often be the end effect. Take the online entrepreneur for example. He is making good money through a web-based service. Then, he gets sick and is bound to his bed. He can still make money, but the pain is distracting. He cannot get out of bed, so someone has to help him. His helplessness leads to depression. His depression results in a lack of drive and inspiration. His business fails because his health hinders his drive. It is a sad chain of events.

The same holds true for the concept of energy. If we are tired all of the time, we will not have the drive reach for our goals. We might not notice it at first. Generally, it starts with a phrase such as, “I’m exhausted. I’ll do this tomorrow.” Once we start putting off our goals and dreams, we begin to lose them one day at a time. Tomorrow truly never comes. You see, the ability to find ultimate achievement is like a vehicle. Every aspect is one wheel. If a vehicle has just one wheel missing, it goes nowhere. Health and Energy is one of these wheels, and without it, the car, as well as yourself, will not be able to be driven.

Maintaining Health and Energy

Of course, the next question is, “How do I reach an acceptable level of good health and energy?” The energy aspect is fairly simple. Get plenty of rest. Everyone needs a minimum of eight hours of sleep every night. Do not depend on outside substances for energy. Coffee may be enjoyable, but it is not an acceptable replacement for rest. Authentic energy through plenty of rest is integral to having good health, and good health is an absolute in energy. These two aspects rely upon one another.

To reach and maintain good health, one has to put a little more work into it, particularly in the beginning. You need to balance your diet well. Do not attempt the many diets that promise that you can lose ten pounds per day. Simply eat a balanced diet. Your body will take care of the rest.

Though your day is likely pretty much full from reaching for your goals, always make certain that you are taking time to exercise. You do not have to do push-ups, sit-ups, and all that, but do take time out to walk a mile a day. It does not take all that long and will make a major difference in your physical well-being. Also, be sure to have at least one medical check-up a year. It seems like a waste of time when you are not sick to begin with, but in the long run, it can make all the difference in the world.

Success can be measured in many ways, such as financial or relationship-wise. Nevertheless, how can we truly say that we are successful when we do not have the energy to go out and enjoy it, or to even reach that success? Start with yourself. Make absolutely sure that your lifestyle is one that can support your dreams and goals in the long run.

Personal Success Begins with You

Of the millions of people all over the world, one would not think that you would be able to sum the majority up within three groups. When in regards to financial, social, and personal freedom, however, there is exactly that, three individual groups. Yes, you are a member of one of these groups. Civilization as a whole can be broken down to those who live in the past, those who live in the future, and those that live for today. Each of these has its’ pros and cons, and each one of them will prevent you from being your best. The past, the present, and the future will each one, individually, prevent you from reaching your utmost potential. Each factor will attack you in the area of your peace of mind, preventing you from reaching your goals.

These concepts are well armed with the very devastating and corrupting weapons of anger, doubt, regret, and fear to name a select few. There are many other negative emotions involved, but these are the hierarchy. To successfully find the peace of mind required in actively maximizing your full potential you must overcome each of these. To win this battle, you must first know what you are up against.

The Chains of The Past

“The first requirement is peace of mind - freedom from fear, freedom from anger and freedom from guilt.” -Brian Tracy, The Psychology of Achievement

First, we have the past. This is the reign that holds the majority of us back. Each and every one of us has a point in our past that we are not proud of. This could be a bad relationship, a bad decision, or pretty much any negative factor that keeps our hearts hard and our attitudes angry. It is vital that you see that this is nothing more than an anchor for you. As much as it might feel good to hold a grudge against someone, or at the very least feel like they deserve it, the only person that is suffering for it is you. In essence you are punishing them by beating yourself. Let go of the past and move on. Learn from it, but do not let it tarnish your peace of mind. The past is for experience. Hold that aspect of it and none other.

The Prison of Today

The present can also be a major wall for your success in life. Those of us that live only in the present life live for every second of every day as it happens. We are out for the thrill of life as it happens. We don’t worry about what we did yesterday or what we will do tomorrow. While this does certainly sound like a great lifestyle, it can hurt your peace of mind in the long run. Eventually this kind of attitude will lead you to a very narrow road. When we live only for the moment, we are not taking into account the long-term effects of what we do. This usually ends up with a lot of regrets and mistakes. Regrets can eat at you for years to come. Those who live only in the present usually end up being those living in the past.

Fixated on the Future

Then we have the ever-popular future focused individuals. These are driven people. They have their entire lives already planned out from the start. They know where they will go to college, when they will graduate, any in between jobs, how their career will progress, and when they will retire. These individuals are strong-willed and have their eye on the future. Unfortunately, again, these individuals generally end up living in the past in the long run. The usually do reach their goals, but then they end up looking back at all they missed in their lives, and regret comes again. They look upon the family that they never had time for, the vacations they never took, and all the important people in their lives that mattered, but that they just did not notice. Their eyes were on the ball, but nowhere else.

The Happy Medium

When you are seeking peace of mind, you have to overcome the barriers of allowing yourself to become a mainstay in one of these categories. Instead of living in the past, the present OR the future, give a little bit of yourself to all. Take the best qualities of each and make them a part of your existence. Take the lessons of the past, but leave the grudges, anger, and regret behind. Take the excitement of the present, but use wisdom and consider the consequences of your actions. Have a plan for the future, a goal that will leave you very financially well off, but remember that money isn’t everything. It helps, but the value of a loving family is priceless. If you can implement all of these in your life, then you can lead a happy existence, free of guilt, and full of potential!

Reaching Beyond Your Boundaries

In life we face many daily issues that test our boundaries. There is always someone telling us that getting from point A to point B is possible, but point C is a slim possibility and D is absolutely impossible. In all too many cases, we end up settling for B as our permanent life station. Throughout our lives people place boundaries in their minds of what we can achieve, and we, in turn, see those boundaries and often let them settle into place. The truth is that the only true boundaries are those that we set for ourselves. We draw the lines. No one else has that power over our destiny.

Once these limits are set, all is still not lost. If one knows the proper ways in which to break these self-constructed walls of limitations, he or she can still live the maximum life possible. All it takes is a good look within yourself and the ability to believe that you can be more. Knowing how to change and not believing that it is possible is the same thing as not knowing in the first place.

In the next six articles we will be discussing ways of stretching beyond our preset horizons, becoming the maximum person, and reaching our goals and dreams.

Our basis for this is the teachings of famed Best-selling author and internationally renowned self-help guru, Brian Tracy. Tracy has spent his entire life learning what it takes to become the best that you can be, both on a personal and financial level. The proof is in the life of Tracy himself, as he has used his own techniques to destroy every barrier that has stood before him. Tracy has developed a simple six-step program that summarizes the ways in which we can push our limits until we ultimately achieve our life-goals.

Peace of Mind –You will never succeed at life if you cannot overcome those everyday onslaughts that the world seems to throw at you. It might be a job, a co-worker, a family member, or even financial issues. Regardless of the source, a mind of turmoil will not serve you in any positive manner. We must be able find a way to seek a mental shelter amongst the storms of life.

Health and Energy-Positive thinking and success have a lot to do with achieving our goals in life. Nevertheless, a positive thinker who is bed ridden from a sickness will still have a hard time winning a race, as an example goal. The same holds true with someone who smokes or drinks. Success in life can come in many forms, such as financial and personal achievement, but personal health is a major factor in success also.

Loving Relationships-As a symptom of the human condition, we all need relationships. Hermits rarely succeed on all levels. The loner might be rich, but still be miserable. Loving relationships are much like a battery, and we the machine. From our close relationships, we receive self-esteem, emotion, and drive. We need that energy to keep running.

Financial Freedom-A massive percentage of the population of the United States alone is in debt. It almost seems as if it is a requirement to be in debt these days just to own things. Getting in debt is not a problem, but getting out, on the other hand, is very hard indeed. Debt is reminiscent of falling into a pit. Falling in is easy enough. It hurts, but it’s fast and sudden. Getting out, on the other hand, is difficult. There are, however, certain ladders that can help you out of the pit of financial dependence.

Worthy Goals & Ideals- Setting and reaching goals is a very positive concept. Nevertheless, it is equally important that we make those goals something realistic and that will pay off in the long run. To have a goal to own a business that has no future at all is pointless. You are setting yourself up for failure. However, a business that is similar with new proven marketing techniques, on the other hand, might just work. It is important to question our ideals and goals before we write them in stone.

A Sense of Purpose-Why is it that you are chasing that dream? What reason do you have to get up in the morning and go to work each day? Is there anything about your goals that will make your life better when you reach it, as well as along the way? A sense of purpose is infinitely important when preparing to smash all the barriers in your life. If there isn’t something along the way that makes it worth it, then you will never reach that end-goal before losing interest.

Over the next six postings we will guide you through this series of positive proven techniques. By the end, it is our goal to destroy every boundary that this world has set on you and to send you bursting into a whole new lifestyle of success. Just keep an open mind and believe that this program will work for you as it did for Brian Tracy. If you believe, anything is possible.

As a very regular young English guy named Michael Cheney discovered not so long ago, people are getting lied to day in and day out. You see, society everywhere is in a conspiracy against you making the money that you can make, that you want to make, that you deserve to make.

Society everywhere tells you that you are destined to be little more than a indentured servant from the time you finish high school or college. Society says you need to get a j-o-b that will never pay you enough money… or, if it does pay you good money, the amount of time and energy and stress that you’ll need to invest into it will make it so that money is hardly worth it. And then, one day, you’re “allowed” to retire…on only a fraction of what you were getting paid when you had your j-o-b. So then, you can’t even afford your hard won freedom!

Society does not tell you that there’s a way out of this doom and gloom. But regular English guy Michael Cheney discovered that there is a way out - for him, for you, for everyone!

And the way out that is the way in to abundant wealth and total freedom at any age is affiliate marketing on the Internet.

But Michael does point out one very important thing: most successful affiliate marketers are also liars! Most affiliate marketing plans and so-called “strategies” don’t work - but, most of the time, the “secrets” that affiliate marketers sell about how to do what they do are all about those things that don’t work! But these affiliate marketers are in competition… with you. So they make their money two ways: they do things you don’t know anything about and then they get you to buy their useless “secrets” so they get paid for getting rid of the competition (you)!

So, Michael Cheney has set out to expose not just society’s lies but the affiliate marketing “guru” lies, too.

Michael knows precisely what he’s talking about, too…because he’s been there, done that! He has been searching for wealth and personal freedom since he got on the Internet back in 1995 and first started getting bombarded with those 1001 on-line marketing plan offers that you buy into. He knows what it’s like to get down on yourself for not doing something right when the plan you bought into doesn’t work…and you’re out the money you invested into it and the time you invested into it! And still you’re not rich and still you are stuck in your j-o-b as a mere indentured servant!

Michael started out his journey of affiliate marketing discovery making all the mistakes, living in a run-down one-bedroom apartment and trying to escape his disappointment and frustration with alcohol and hard drugs…but now his life is amazing, joyful, exciting, and secured by millions of dollars that stream into him even in his sleep!

And now this young regular guy is sharing the real secrets that he had to painstakingly learn the hard way, so that YOU don’t have to!

Writes Michael, “It’s been a long, lonely and painful journey but I’ve made it here to tell you the story!”

“You start off and everything looks rosy for you doesn’t it?”

“You hear about stories of riches over night and before you know it you have invested in some so-called solution that does nothing but empty your wallet and smash your dreams into even tinier pieces.”

“And this is the biggest pain of all…  But… it’s not your fault at all…”

There are certain basic needs that all people have if they want to live free and joyful, and not lead lives of quiet desperation or an endless, restless plight. 

One of these basic needs is financial freedom. You have heard the saying that “money isn’t everything.” And that’s very true. However, while money isn’t everything, poverty isn’t anything. Money is the great tool that sets you free to meet your other basic needs, and once you have obtained enough money and wealth so that you are realizing all of your personal dreams and living a life of independence and self-reliance with a constant sense of having “taken care of business” instead of endlessly worrying, you have financial freedom.

When you have financial freedom, you’ll have a quiet sense of power, a sense of being able to accomplish great things instead of just dream about them, that will be your constant companion. But without financial freedom, no matter how hard you work you will never have the peace of mind that you need to live a life of joy. Life will grind you down.

Financial freedom is defined differently for each individual person, depending on their personality, their personal desires, and their life circumstances. Not everyone needs to be Donald Trump, although Donald Trump does. But by the same token, if you’re worried at all about money you’re not okay financially, even if you think you’re earning as much money as you ever wanted to. 

In the 21st century, the vast majority of people in the developed nations have it in their power to become financially free, otherwise known as “being independently wealthy”. With the advent of the Internet and the constant increase in the total wealth of developed nations, the information and the tools are all out there, and very inexpensive to acquire. 

But the quest for financial freedom begins with understanding. You have to understand who you are and how money flows. 

The person mentioned above who thinks he’s earning the income he always wanted but isn’t financially free - his debts are too high, he can’t do the things he wants to do when he wants to do them, he can’t give his family all he wants to give them, he works long hours to make somebody else rich, etc. - doesn’t know himself. He is NOT earning the money, he does NOT have the money, that he really needs and should want.

He probably believed lies that were told to him when he was young, lies probably told to him by people who were, themselves, not financially free. These people, sadly, were likely to have included his own parents. Your parents are probably wondrous and loving people, but if they aren’t independently wealthy, what business have they got advising YOU about money? Furthermore, what business have you got LISTENING TO anybody, even them, who isn’t financially free telling you how money works?

There are two basic ways to follow to attain financial freedom: the first is “pay yourself first” and the second is “make your money work for you”. Both of these ways must be followed.

With “pay yourself first”, you put aside money for yourself every time you get paid (assuming you don’t absolutely HAVE TO spend every last dollar on pure necessities…in which case you need a different source of income). You put aside this money BEFORE you pay the grocer, the baker, the candlestick maker, the gas station, the lenders you owe.

And what do you do with this money? You invest it–this is where you make your money work for you. You may invest it in the stock market, or you may invest it in learning about and setting up an Internet affiliate marketing program so that you eventually are earning money even in your sleep every day and night of the year. But somehow, you make this money go to work for you making you more money…and so on, and so on, and so on…

When you have enough money working for you that you don’t have to spend your time working for your money, you have attained financial freedom.
