Change

Article Overview: It can be easy and it will change your life.

Change

The majority of people don’t like change. So when we go to the fair or watch a parade, we see pretty much the same as we did last year and the year before that. We are creatures of habit. We like things to stay the same. Now I think that some things should stay the same, like commitment, values, integrity, high morals, and standards and commitment. But have you noticed that the most successful businesses are constantly changing, improving, upgrading and updating, adding value and adjusting to meet the needs of the consumer and the marketplace?

Change and adapt or die. Innovate or slide into oblivion. The only constant in life is change. If we keep on doing what we’ve always done, we WON’T get what we’ve always got – we will go backwards. Change the rules, but maintain your ambition and passion. Get rid of the deadwood, but don’t be disloyal. By all means make mistakes, but don’t repeat them. Because business continues to change at an ever-increasing rate, it is imperative that we change. But in conventional business, change can be very expensive. Renovations, new inventory, and changes in technology can destroy your cashflow – damned if you do, damned if you don’t. A double bind.

The answer to change is flexibility and the freedom and ability to change as fast, or faster, than your competitors are. Mean and lean. The best way to accomplish this ability is to become a Joint Venture Broker. As a JV Broker, you can participate in and benefit from multiple industries and businesses simultaneously. You can get in and out fast, with no cost or risk to you, by leveraging existing resources. No investment necessary. No geographic, political, financial, or demographic boundaries or barriers. Only unlimited opportunity. And JV’s take very little time to put in place. Most entrepreneurs work in a tollbooth. JV Brokers OWN the tollbooths.

Yes, you don’t have to risk the farm or your RRSP /401K savings. You don’t have to lie awake at night or open tomorrow’s newspaper in a stat of fear and trembling. You can walk away from anything. You don’t have to work like a demon and neglect your family. You can enjoy business and enjoy your life. While others work to make you money and create multiple streams of passive income for you, you can sip a martini and watch the History Channel – because risk and hard work is history for Joint Venture Brokers. And you can learn how to do this for peanuts. Find out how here: www.dollarmakers.com It's what we do – we make dollars.

Re: Spellcheck? - [quote="TheAnonymousMan":2f894q6j]When discussing the majority of people I would definitely say that most people hit the "Change" or "Ignore" button without thinking too much about the correct spelling of a word. All bosses are concerned about is getting the report to the Directors meeting on time.[/quote:2f894q6j] That probably depends on what the "majority" are trying to accomplish. I have word set to alert me about misspellings and grammatical problems, so I fix most as I go. But I also add names etc to the dictionary because I get tired of seeing the red and green squiggles when I know the info is right. If you're only going to click "Change" or "Ignore" then why bother to take the time to use spell check????? Business people that I work for want the info compiled in a timely manner and they want it right - which is fine because that's the way I strive to do any project. Sending out a memo, letter, report etc with obvious spelling and grammatical mistakes makes the person and the company look bad as far as I'm concerned. Shri
Re: e-Commerce and e-Payment providers - Hi GT It is only fairly recently that people in South Africa have been able to get full use of Paypal as we were only able at one time to make payments but not receive them. Fortunately this has now changed. I have received money through Global X Change for one of the affiliate programs that I promote and have found them pretty good as the money is normally transferred directly into my bank account within 2-3 days and I have not had any problems with them.

Re: Obama Wants Social Security for Illegals - [quote="Alan Mater":3kaa8sg4] Obama WILL make changes... but they're not the changes we as a country need or should look forward to.[/quote:3kaa8sg4] Sad but this is exactly how I feel about it. Change is coming - but unless I'm really wrong, it is not a change this country needs. Amazing how much a good speaker with a good speech writer can do. If you paid attention to the things he said "off script" - much of it is frightening. Chris
Are you an Opportunity Addict? - 1) if you find yourself saying yes without thinking about how it will affect your other priorities 2) you have over 10 projects/inventions going on at the same time and this seems normal to you 3) you have spent hundreds and thousands of dollars on manufacturing, prototypes, etc. not to mention thousands of hours of your time....but you havent followed through on any of it 4) most of your projects are falling behind or have completely fallen off your radar....which is fueling your frustration The first step in recovery is to recognize this as a pattern of self sabotage. If you are clear in what your overall goals and objectives are, you should be able to create a lens through which you measure opportunities. You create your life, and your to do list. Change, Add, Remove, Adjust time-lines - whatever you like. But remember that every piece of unfinished business - stays that way J
You are too young - I don't really believe (I've been into web designing for 7 years now... I started in 2000) there is any web design laws. Besides the fact that you can't use copyrighted images on web design without permission from the original author. Also, any web designs you do you may want to have it copyrighted so other's can't steal your idea's or whatever... of course, you can offer a "Copyright Change" option for a bit more money that will allow you to be able to transfer the copyrights and give exclusive rights to the purchaser. All in all, don't worry about the laws... you should be fine, just remember that if your in the U.S. that if your making over $400 (or maybe its $600) in revenue, you'll have to pay taxes to the government... and please get a LLC, although its not a big thing with web designs, you could get into legal trouble somewhere in the business. Lastly, use contracts for when your selling or use agreements to clear the air so that you can have a safe business and you'll have some backing up if you ever are taken to court.
