Rome Italy was a spectacular place and if you have never been there I definitely recommend taking the trip. We spent about 10 days there and had just a ton of fun. We did most of our touring and site seeing at night, which was really nice. All the crowds were gone and the structures were all lit up and seemed even more majestic that during normal daylight. Here are a few pics of some of our travels throughout Rome Italy!

    

   

We visited the Vatican, the great Colosseum, the Trevi Fountain, the Pantheon, and the list goes on and on. We experienced real Italy buy wandering the streets of Rome and being among the people. We ate Italian food in little holes in the wall barely big enough to get in and get out with your order. We sat and had dinner while right across the street was the Colosseum as our backdrop. We walked the cobblestone streets of Rome as we saw the sites and traced the ancient paths of the Romans used to travel around the city. We sat at a Roman feast in a Toga Party as we saw gladiators fight, fire blowing, belly dancing, and chariots for entertainment. And we did all this with our one month old baby girl, Macy.

This truly is a lifestyle business. We get to travel the world with our family, make the income to support our lifestyle, and teach others how to do the same. How could my life possibly be better. And you know what, this is only the first of several trips planned this year. It is going to be a fun year!

So how do you get hundreds of people contacting you who are in search of a business? The answer is simple…..go on vacation! I’ll tell you what, when we returned from Rome we had over 200 hundred people requesting more information about this very simple income opportunity. We are still getting back to those people. It always seems to work out this way. Every time we take off on vacation or go out to just live our lives, our business thrives!

So, while away in Rome our business was still working for us. The power of the internet is truly amazing. It never sleeps! I have heard of so many network marketers who struggle with lead generation. I can tell you this much….if you have the desire to learn, lead generation is easy. You just have to become a student and dive into it. Instead of getting caught up into waiting for someone to do it for you or to call you up and teach you step by step, start doing it. Type into the search bar, “lead generation,” and see what comes up. Most lead generation techniques are self-taught. I can show you where to go but unless you write that ad and place it somewhere, you will never know if it works or not. Become a student of it and you will master it.

So, I have over 200 eager people to call back and a few hours to do it. I think a good income goal for these 200 leads would be between 30k and 60k. We’ll see what happens….but all I know is all I have to do is call them, provide them with the information to get started here, and then, collect a check. The business is that simple!

When in Rome is the phrase that has been most commonly used since we have been here. When in Rome anything and everything is possible! What a place this is. I feel like I am in the midst of so much history and greatness when I am around the ruins of ancient Rome and within the walls of the Vatican. So much existed and still exists here, from Roman Gladiators and Emperors to the Pope. What a great place to be today. I have enjoyed myself to the fullest.

We have spent quite a bit of time just wondering around the streets of Downtown Rome, hitting landmarks along the way and eating the authentic Italian food! Man, all I can say is Gelato! That stuff in brilliant. Now, that doesn’t leave out the pasta. Italian is my favorite kind of food and I am in hog heaven here man! From fettucini topped with sheep cheese to spaghetti with meat sauce, I love it all. Last night we actually ate at a restaurant right across the street from the Colosseum with some friends here. What a view! I mean, how many times am I going to be in Rome and eating dinner right across from the Colosseum? Not very many…. and I savored every bit of it!

I absolutely love what I do. I teach people how to acheive their own greatness and by doing so, they can experience the lifestyle of their dreams. This is my dream lifestyle….traveling the world with my family! What a business and what a life. We are going to wrap up our stay here with a Toga Party tonight with all of our friends. We are to have a Roman Feast! Sounds good, I know! Guys, I love my life!

What will your life be like if you continue making decisions that same way you are currently making them? What will it be like in 2 years, 10 years, or even 30 years? Will you still be in that secure job of yours, headed towards that 20 or 30 year retirement? Or, will you be laid off? Will you have the financial security that you and your loved ones deserve? Will you be proud of what the last 10, 20 or 30 years have held for you or would you wish to have had more fun, taken more chances, made bigger, wiser decisions?

Never under estimate that power of a simple choice. The choice you make now to read this information is a choice that may or may not effect your life, depending directly to whether or not you decide to act upon this information. If I had not have acted on the information that we received about this unique business opportunity, I would still be doing what I hated. I would be making pennies, working for someone else, and wishing for more. The sad thing is that most people are in that exact same situation, but may not realize that a simple choice and the desire to change, is really all it takes. We decided to change our income and thus our life had increased in joy, abundance, income, friends, knowledge, and every other good thing that I can possibly think of.

So what are you sacrificing for the sake of comfort? Feels good to come home every day from that job or business and see the family for an hour or two just to do it all over again. What do you get from that? Benefits? Money? I’ll tell you what I got from my job. I got no money, no real time for my family, a life of struggle, the cow mentality (always following the herd), a two bedroom apartment, a broken down Dodge Dart, 36k a year and having to wait for a whole year to get a lousy $1 raise, one hour a day with my family…..oh, but I got benefits! I got Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance baby and a 401k! Wow! That makes it all worth it.

My advice, and take this from someone who has been there, the best thing you can do for your families future is to stop going to work. Stop going to that JOB! Make a simple choice to take control of your life and live to the fullest! Here I am sitting in Rome Italy while writing this article. I am living my life! I have no job to get back to and could just stay here and still work this business! Where could you be right now, if you were not at work, and had a choice?

The answer to that is simple……you’d be wherever you want to be. And the funny thing is…there is always a choice!

I was asked a question the other day. The person asked if they had to be a salesman to be successful in this business. Of course the answer to that question is, “absolutely not!” The beauty about this business opportunity is that fact that we have a marketing system in place already to do all the selling for you. Which there really is none. There is only sorting, meaning, sorting through the tire kickers to find the aces. Now, when I speak of aces, I mean those who are ready to start a business and have what it takes to succeed!

Now, this is an example of an ACE. I had a conversation with a lady from Australia who is looking to create some wealth in her life. I conducted a 5 to 10 minute interview with here to get a feel for who she was and what she was looking for. I invited her to review details about this opportunity and she emailed back immediately after finishing here research and was ready to get started. It is that simple. She purchased a product and I got paid. That is how this simple system works. It’s not rocket science or some complex business model. It’s just about following the system and assisting people in moving forward.

The great thing is, she will duplicate that exact process and make money for herself. And right now, things are on fire “down under.” This opportunity is spreading like wildfire! She is definitely in the right place at the right time.

So ask yourself, “Do you have what it takes.” If the answer is yes then what are you waiting for. Give me a call for your brief interview and you could be on your way to making thousand dollar profits immediately.

One day Mr. Shoaff said, “Jim, if you want to be wealthy and happy, learn this lesson well: Learn to work harder on yourself than you do on your job.”

Since that time I’ve been working on my own personal development. And I must admit that this has been the most challenging assignment of all. This business of personal development lasts a lifetime.

You see, what you become is far more important than what you get. The important question to ask on the job is not, “What am I getting?” Instead, you should ask, “What am I becoming?” Getting and becoming are like Siamese twins: What you become directly influences what you get. Think of it this way: Most of what you have today you have attracted by becoming the person you are today.

I’ve also found that income rarely exceeds personal development. Sometimes income takes a lucky jump, but unless you learn to handle the responsibilities that come with it, it will usually shrink back to the amount you can handle.

If someone hands you a million dollars, you’d better hurry up and become a millionaire. A very rich man once said, “If you took all the money in the world and divided it equally among everybody, it would soon be back in the same pockets it was before.”

It is hard to keep that which has not been obtained through personal development.

So here’s the great axiom of life:

–TO HAVE MORE THAN YOU’VE GOT, BECOME MORE THAN YOU ARE–

This is where you should focus most of your attention. Otherwise, you just might have to contend with the axiom of not changing, which is:

–UNLESS YOU CHANGE HOW YOU ARE, YOU’LL ALWAYS HAVE WHAT YOU’VE GOT–

To Your Success,
