			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>SlimSure make fatties feel good and offers them hope with that ridiculous slogan, “It’s not you – it’s your metabolism”. How about “It’s not you, it’s your father / mother/ the weather/ your education / apartheid / whites / your height / the government… you name it, you’re the victim, it’s not your fault, you couldn’t help it…?” Assuage the conscience of losers and pander to their excuses, lethargy, and bad choices.</p>
<p>Here’s the reality: “You created what you have today. You are responsible. You’re not fat because of water retention, hormones, your metabolism, or big bones &#8211; you’re fat because you’re a greedy SOB with no self discipline. You prefer the trough to the bicycle. Your choices have spawned consequences, and so here we are. Deal with it. Time to make different choices.”</p>
<p>We once knew a couple who were convinced that the husband had an affair because his mistress was a witch who gave him tea to drink that made him demon possessed. Right, and the Tooth Fairy stole my toothbrush. Fact is, he strayed, he cheated, and that’s it. My uncle died of emphysema because he was a smoker who had no concern for other people on whom he inflicted his foul-smelling, filthy addiction, and not enough self-respect or discipline to quit, not because he “fell ill”.</p>
<p>People steal because they’re bad people who don’t respect other peoples’ rights, not because of bad potty training. Cut their thieving hands off, and see how quickly theft dries up. Shoot the Somali pirates dead. Call a spade a spade. Get real. The rich get richer because they keep on doing what made them rich, and the poor get poorer because they keep on doing what made them poor. Simple as that.</p>
<p>Some people are evil, some (many) are stupid , and some are bone lazy. Three percent of humanity (and I’m being generous, here) are winners. The rest make excuses and become enslaved by those who pander to them. You are either a producer, creator, winner, and prime mover, or you’re a loser and a follower. By your own choice, not by birth or environment. There is no excuse. You don&#8217;t agree? I don&#8217;t care.</p>
<p>The one book that has meant more to my mental stability, such as it is, than anything else I have ever encountered, is “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand. For me, it explains the way the world works better than any mystical dross or philosophical claptrap out there, and it helps me achieve my goals without being sidetracked by the hidden agendas of the parasites, looters, and losers of this world. It inspires me, motivates me, and keeps me real and responsible.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Walk into any store and look at the “Humorous” birthday cards about how people are getting old, their boobs are dropping, losing their hair, and can’t remember anything. Notice how women, especially, have a “thing” about getting old or mentioning their ages, which sells lots of Botox, hair dye, and all sorts of contraptions and systems to make people look younger. Mutton dressed like lamb. Men are getting just as bad with their pathetic comb-overs, pony tails, and hair implants. Even worse than regretting one’s age or even fearing birthdays, is the fact that they tend to have people looking backwards instead of forwards. “When I was younger…” <strong>We need to be architects of the future we can create, instead of archeologists looking back into a past we cannot change.</strong></p>
<p>A birthday should be an exciting time of new beginnings, new horizons, and the celebration of success, survival, and wisdom. It is, after all, the first day of the rest of your life, pregnant with powerful possibilities, a launching pad of wisdom, experience, understanding, and the acknowledgement that we have no limitations. Right now, do yourself a favor. Watch this amazing video of Jim Stovall, whose life really only started when he went blind &#8211; the <a href="http://snipr.com/lpf1w" target="_blank">Christopher Story</a>. Also see <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6cPdIytkl0g&amp;feature=related" target="_blank">this video</a> of his.</p>
<p>As <strong>Independence Day</strong> dawns tomorrow, how about creating your own Independence Day – “Independent of the Past”. We can rise like the phoenix out of the putrid swamp of our past hurts, bad choices, and failures. What doesn’t kill us does, indeed, make us stronger, IF we allow it to. Every day is a potential birthday – the day you give birth to a new, “Can Do” attitude that says, “Enough of the past – I am creating a wonderful new future, starting today. I have unlimited potential and I won’t drive my car looking in the rear-view mirror. Wear your age like a medal of honor – a reflection of your learning and wisdom, experience and understanding. Birthdays should be like graduation ceremonies, not funerals.</p>
<p>The best way to remember “YAHOO” – You Always Have Other Options – is to hook up with people who are successful, excited about their futures, and busy creating wonderful, new lives. Mixing with losers who spend their time talking about the past, their kidney stones, their grandkids, and their problems is like drinking poison served up by a granny in a greasy spoon diner, wearing a miniskirt, with dyed blond hair, tramp stamps (tattoos), and a cigarette behind her ear. You’re as old and vulnerable as you want to be. Mix with winners, set new goals, stop feeling sorry for yourself, and grab life by the horns. The best is yet to come, and the opportunities to make money and have a great life have never been better.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s Shawn here, Technical Director of JVWisdom.com.</p>
<p>Robin J. Elliott’s video ‘<strong>Creating a Bulletproof Mindset</strong>’ has been available to purchase as a DVD for 65 bucks.  For the next 15 days, it will be available to view <strong><em>at no cost.</em></strong></p>
<p>The feedback we’ve gotten on this DVD has been incredible.  Some people have told us they’ve watched it over 5 times in the course of a week.  It’s been a solid seller since it’s release, and we feel it’s one of the best pieces of ‘mind mastery’ material we’ve seen.  Obviously we’re a bit biased however, so I encourage you to see for yourself.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.jvwisdom.com/bulletproof" target="_blank">http://www.jvwisdom.com/bulletproof</a></p>
<p>We actually released this video at a Bootcamp Robin did in Edmonton.  We played the trailer (<a href="http://www.jvwisdom.com/bulletproof" target="_blank">http://www.jvwisdom.com/bulletproof</a>) and then before we could even give anymore info people wanted to buy their copy.</p>
<p>The thing was, we were only taking pre-orders because we hadn’t even gotten them printed yet!</p>
<p>95% of the attendees ended up pre-ordering their DVD.  We had a special price for them that day, but I can guarantee you the special price wasn’t what it is right now (nothing).</p>
<p>Like I said above, we’re only keeping this up to watch for the next 15 days.</p>
<p>Till Next,<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First impressions count, whether we want to believe it or not. Dean Ponak, creator of <a href="http://www.JVWebPartners.com" target="_blank">www.JVWebPartners.com</a>, says, &#8220;Does Your Email match Up to your domain? When you receive a business card from a so-called &#8216;professional&#8217;, what is the first thing you look for? (or at least you <em>should</em> be looking for!)</p>
<p>Check to see if (1) they have a website on their business card and (2) they have an email that matches their domain name. If they don&#8217;t, then they&#8217;re not as professional as they&#8217;re trying to make out. I personally throw out their business card when I get home unless they let me know that they&#8217;ve just started a new business or they&#8217;re changing their business card because they have a new website!</p>
<p>There is nothing that turns me off more then somebody at some networking event trying to pose and tell me how much they&#8217;re making or how much I can make and they don&#8217;t have a website listed on their business card or even worse, their email is joe@hotmail.com or carol@gmail.com.</p>
<p>Now look at a professional business card that has the domain AND email matching&#8230; what kind of feeling does this give you? It shouts &#8216;I&#8217;m a Professional&#8217; to me and I am willing now to take a serious look at this person.</p>
<p>Here at <a href="http://www.jvwebpartners.com" target="_blank">JVWebPartners</a> you get your own domain name, website, and unlimited emails for $20 per month. That means that if your domain name is www.mygreatsite.com then you can have emails like joe@mygreatsite.com, info@mygreatsite.com, sales@mygreatsite.com&#8230; as many emails as you would like.</p>
<p>Finally, if you really want to be professional, you&#8217;ll want to not only receive emails to e.g. joe@mygreatsite.com but you&#8217;ll also want to send emails from joe@mygreatsite.com and I will show you how to do this if you ask.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How many times have you said, “I don’t feel like it”, but you go ahead anyway and do it, and you’re very happy you did? In life and in business, feelings are not always the ideal indicator, especially when they involve a spot of sloth or discomfort on your part.</p>
<p>Recently, my amazing daughter urged me to go for a ride with her on a wild-looking machine at the fairgrounds that whirled people around upside down, high above the ground. The last time I rode on one of those things, I was a teenager. Now I’m 56, but I agreed to accompany her. I didn’t feel like it, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! My wife persuaded me to go to Disney World for the first time. I certainly didn’t feel like that, but I did it, and I loved it. After that, we visited Disneyland as well! Yesterday, my two friends suggested we jump off the boat and swim in the cold waters of Howe Sound off Horseshoe Bay. I didn’t feel like it, but I dived in, and it was great.</p>
<p>Do you think athletes feel like training for hours every day, in all kinds of weather, enduring constant pain? How about that awful food they eat on their special diets? Don’t you thing they feel like gobbling fatty burgers or lining up at the trough for ice cream? How often do they feel like quitting? Those who do quit don’t win the gold medals. The same goes for entrepreneurs. Someone once said, “The heights by great men reached and kept were not attained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.”</p>
<p>Note, in the above quote, that the author says, “Reached and KEPT” – it’s OK to win once, but to keep on winning, you have to discipline your feelings and urges. Ross Perot said, “<strong>Something in human nature causes us to start slacking off at our moment of greatest accomplishment. As you become successful, you will need a great deal of self-discipline not to lose your sense of balance, humility, and commitment.</strong>” Beware &#8211; pride comes before the fall.</p>
<p>Lee Iacocca said, “I learned to keep going, even in bad times. I learned not to despair, even when my world was falling apart. I learned that there are no free lunches. And I learned the value of hard work.” And Jim Rohn said, “Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishments. One discipline always leads to another discipline.” That’s good news – doing the right thing instead of the easy thing becomes a good habit.</p>
<p>Small habits that get good results need to be developed and maintained in order to reap long-term rewards. Those who quit easily and seek the fast buck never get anywhere, and they develop a reputation for excuses and for not being reliable. James Allen said, “Men are anxious to improve their circumstances, but are unwilling to improve themselves; they therefore remain bound. The man who does not shrink from self-crucifixion can never fail to accomplish the object upon which his heart is set.” That self-discipline to do the right thing in spite of what you feel, is what separates the men from the boys.</p>
<p>Champions don’t make excuses, and they fight on, regardless of their feelings, comfort zone, or the opinions of others. When losers tell them, “Don’t work too hard, take it easy, rest more, dress down, don’t be so aggressive, don’t upset people”, winners simply go deaf. They associate with other winners and hear only their mentors and coaches. Do the right thing, continuing in good and bad times to do the right thing, in spite of what you feel. Conquer yourself, and you can reach any goal you wish.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When I talk with my incredible wife, we describe people to each other in terms of three descriptions: 1. DiSC, or the four personality styles. 2. Commitment – people either have it or they don’t. This goes along with “Staying Power” 3. Do they have a Killer Instinct?</p>
<p>People with a killer instinct are fearless closers. They don’t understand how to quit, back down, roll over, or wallow in the fetid swamp of politically correct, passive aggression. They are loyal soldiers, and they’ve got your back when you’re in a jam. Unlike pansy parasite posers, who will stab you in the back and steal the milk out of your tea with a permanent smile on their faces.</p>
<p>Donald Trump is a real man. He said this of Revenge: &#8220;There are a lot of bad people out there&#8230; if you have a problem with someone, you have to go after them. And it&#8217;s not necessarily to teach that person a lesson, it&#8217;s to teach all of the people that are watching a lesson, that you don&#8217;t take crap. And if you take crap you&#8217;re just not gonna do well. So Be sharp, Be Smart. It&#8217;s all about this (points to his head/brain) you have to have this to start off with. But you can&#8217;t take a lot of nonsense from people. You have to go after them. I have always believed it. When a person screws you, screw them back 15 times over.&#8221; Killer Instinct.</p>
<p><em><strong>Here’s the difference between someone with a Killer Instinct and a pansy: </strong></em></p>
<p><strong>Pansy:</strong> We knew someone who told us how he was going to change the world and create massive wealth. (Perhaps he thought he was his rich daddy.) Anyway, his very first seminar was a failure because he teamed up with a loser, and he quit almost immediately. At the very first bump in the road, this pansy tucked his scrawny tail between his legs and ran for the hills!<br />
<strong><br />
Powerhouse:</strong> Winners don’t take “No” for an answer. They hardly even hear it! I went on a sales call with one of my salespeople years back. We traveled for two hours to get to the prospect’s house, and at 7pm, after listening to our entire presentation, the prospect and his wife told us in no uncertain terms that they would definitely not buy our product. My salesman kept of selling. He closed the sale at 9pm. When I got home at 11pm, my phone was ringing in my office. The customer wanted to cancel the sale. At 12.30am, and hour and a half later, I had closed him again. He stayed closed after that. THAT, dear reader, is a Killer Instinct. No excuses, no turning back, no fear.</p>
<p>What kind of people do you have on your team? The wimps will sabotage your success and undermine your efforts, while frustrating and irritating you. The winners will make your life easy. They will motivate, encourage, and inspire you with their courage and innovation. Losers say things like, “I couldn’t help it, it wasn’t my fault, I’ll do my best, I don’t have the time / money, people can’t afford it, times are tough, it’s the recession, my wife won’t let me, I don’t want to offend people, I need my rest…” Winners take responsibility, seize the opportunity, and make it happen, whatever it takes, no matter how long it takes, 24/7/365.</p>
<p>Read “The Fountainhead” by Ayn Rand, and see an example of a powerhouse who doesn’t compromise, carp, quit, or crawl.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Read this fascinating information from <em>www.Sheep101.info</em> and decide for yourself if you’re a sheep, or dealing with sheep.</strong></p>
<p>•    <em><strong>Follow the Leader, Wait for Me</strong></em><br />
Sheep have a strong instinct to follow the sheep in front of them. When one sheep decides to go somewhere, the rest of the flock usually follows, even if it is not a good &#8220;decision.&#8221; For example, sheep will follow each other to slaughter. If one sheep jumps over a cliff, the others are likely to follow. Even from birth, lambs are conditioned to follow the older members of the flock. This instinct is &#8220;hard-wired&#8221; into sheep. It&#8217;s not something they &#8220;think&#8221; about.<br />
<em><strong>•  Safety in numbers</strong></em><br />
Sheep are gregarious. They will usually stay together in a group while grazing. A sheep will become highly agitated if it is separated from the group. It is the banding together in large groups which protects sheep from predators which will go after the outliers in the flock.<br />
<em><strong>•  Social animals</strong></em><br />
Sheep are a very social animal. Animal behaviorists note that sheep require the presence of at least 4 or 5 sheep which when grazing together maintain a visual link to each other.<br />
<em><strong>•  Flocking together</strong></em><br />
Flocking instinct is strongest in the fine wool breeds, but exists in all sheep breeds, to some extent. It is the sheep&#8217;s flocking instinct that allows sheep herders to look after and move large numbers of sheep and lambs.<br />
<strong><em>•  Flee, not Fight</em></strong><br />
Sheep are a prey animal. When they are faced with danger, their natural instinct is to flee not fight. Their strategy is to use avoidance and rapid flight to avoid being eaten.<br />
<em><strong>•  Safety in numbers</strong></em><br />
After fleeing, sheep will reform their group and look at the predator. They use their natural herding instinct to band together for safety. A sheep that is by itself is vulnerable to attack.<br />
<em><strong>•  Never a straight line</strong></em><br />
Sheep tracks are never straight. The winding of trails allows sheep to observe their backside first with one eye, then the other. Sheep can spot dogs or other perceived forms of danger from 1,200 to 1,500 yards away.<br />
<em><strong>•  Pain</strong></em><br />
Sheep have an amazing tolerance for pain. They do not show pain, because if they do, they will be more vulnerable to predators who look for those who are weak or injured.</p>
<p><strong>Leaders are not sheep. </strong>They are eagles, not ducks. They take responsibility and control, lead the pack, fight for their rights, and make no apologies for their values, beliefs, or choices. They confront issues and tell it the way it is. They have no need for the endorsement of others and they refuse to work with sheep. Eagles don’t flock. They don’t live in fear and compromise, and they don’t sacrifice themselves or allow themselves to be taken advantage of by predatory mystics, politicians, parasites, or bureaucrats.</p>
<p>If you wish to be a leader, adjust <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlas_Shrugged" target="_blank">your philosophy</a>, remove the sheep from your life, and learn from eagles. You can soar to unprecedented heights and enjoy a good lamb stew with mint sauce.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Most people (97%) never achieve anything of significance and live lives of mediocrity, compromise, frustration, and quiet desperation. Their programming and their interpretation of the world and their options determines the extent to which they take responsibility for their lives. One’s philosophy determines whether one ends up a victim or a victor.</p>
<p>Your philosophy is generated by your conditioning and the philosophy to which you have been exposed. See the article by Greg Douglas below to see how socialism at a national level will affect national conditions and many of the citizens as well. The good news is that you can change your philosophy. Once you are able to take responsibility for what you’ve got, you can take responsibility for what you will have, and at that point to get to control your life and your future.</p>
<p>The consequences to one’s philosophy are readily evident in one’s circumstances. You have created the lifestyle you have. And you can change. Rather than hiding in mysticism, altruism, collectivism, and a victim mentality, we can pull our heads out of the sand and realize that we have infinitely more options that what we might believe we have.</p>
<p>When you join the small percentage (perhaps 3% &#8211; probably more like 1%) of the people who realize that they can create any life they want, as long as they take responsibility and are prepared to pay the price, you suddenly encounter very little competition. The more successful you become, the more you will be hated and envied by the unwashed masses, and you can treasure that enmity as a medal of success. The attacks of losers are trophies for winners.</p>
<p><strong>Where do you start?</strong> Read “Atlas Shrugged” by Ayn Rand. It is the beginning of true success and the philosophy that will help you accomplish whatever lifestyle you want. First read this excellent article by Greg Douglas. If it makes sense to you, read Atlas Shrugged. If you side with the grasshoppers, you should smoke another joint and go volunteer to assist draft dodgers and army deserters.    <strong><em>Robin J. Elliott. </em></strong><br />
<strong><br />
The Ant &amp; the Grasshopper &#8211; Canadian Style. By Greg Douglas.</strong></p>
<p>CLASSIC VERSION:</p>
<p>The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the<br />
winter. The grasshopper thinks he&#8217;s a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.</p>
<p>Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. The shivering grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.</p>
<p>THE END</p>
<p>THE CANADIAN VERSION:</p>
<p>The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the<br />
winter. The grasshopper thinks he&#8217;s a fool, and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.</p>
<p>Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. So far, so good, eh?</p>
<p>The shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others less fortunate, like him, are cold and starving.</p>
<p>The CBC shows up to provide live coverage of the shivering grasshopper, with cuts to a video of the ant in his comfortable warm home with a table laden with food. Canadians are stunned that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so while others have plenty.</p>
<p>The NDP, the CAW and the Coalition Against Poverty demonstrate in front of the ant&#8217;s house. The CBC,<br />
interrupting an Inuit cultural festival special from Nunavut with breaking news, broadcasts them singing &#8220;We Shall Overcome.&#8221;</p>
<p>Jack Layton grants in an interview with Mike Duffy that the ant has gotten rich off the backs of grasshoppers, and calls for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his &#8220;fair share&#8221;.</p>
<p>In response to polls, the Liberal Government drafts the Economic Equity and Grasshopper Anti-Discrimination Act, retroactive to the beginning of the summer.</p>
<p>The ant&#8217;s taxes are reassessed, and he is also fined for failing to hire grasshoppers as helpers.</p>
<p>Without enough money to pay both the fine and his newly imposed retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government. The ant moves to the US and starts a successful agribiz company.</p>
<p>The CBC later shows the now fat grasshopper finishing up the last of the ant&#8217;s food, though spring is still months away, while the government house he is in, which just happens to be the ant&#8217;s old house, crumbles around<br />
him because he hasn&#8217;t bothered to maintain it.</p>
<p>Inadequate government funding is blamed, Bob Rae is appointed to head a commission of inquiry that will cost $10,000,000.</p>
<p>The grasshopper is soon dead of a drug overdose, the Toronto Star blames it on the obvious failure of government to address the root causes of despair arising from social inequity.</p>
<p>The abandoned house is taken over by a gang of immigrant spiders, praised by the government for enriching Canada&#8217;s multicultural diversity, who promptly set up a marijuana grow op and terrorize the community.</p>
<p>THE END.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There are some people for whom I would do almost anything. I would go out of my way to help them. Not because I’m a generous or caring person, but because they created that situation themselves.</p>
<p>I received an e-mail from a fellow in Washington State. He is not a Member of DollarMakers. His wife is not a Member of Dollarmakers. I’ve never heard of him before. He tells me he has read one of my books, as have thousands of other people. He says he has a wonder product that could help me save peoples’ lives. He wants to meet with me – thirty minutes of my time, to pitch me on his product, probably a Network Marketing company.</p>
<p>This is very typical of most of the e-mails I receive almost daily. There is no offer to pay my $1,000 per hour fee or to create any kind of relationship or reciprocity. This person is not a Member of DollarMakers, has never attended a DollarMakers event or contributed anything to my life, has not been referred to me by a trusted friend, and has not earned the right to my time. He is a simply stranger trying to sell me a wonder product and using up my valuable time. Now, perhaps he has a great product, and I’m sure he’s a nice guy, but he is approaching this in the wrong way. There is a far more effective way to connect with people, to get their avid attention, and to strategically create in them an eagerness to help you.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.timothyfrancis.com" target="_blank">Tim Francis </a>attended a Bootcamp, created an <a href="http://www.dollarmakers.com/retire/" target="_blank">audio version of my book, “How to Retire in One Year”</a> at his own expense and in his own time, promoted me widely in his interviews and on his Blog, joined DollarMakers, and is getting involved in hosting DollarMakers events.  And he hasn’t asked me for anything – yet. And here I am, promoting him to thousands of people. A far cry from the panhandler who holds out a shaking, nicotine-stained hand and demands your charity for no reason but his own need.</p>
<p>Create respect, reciprocity, and relationship before you start begging pitching, looting, and mooching. Invest, earn the right, position yourself, create overlapping interests, do your homework, and think like a Joint Venture Broker instead of a parasite or a poser. Give winners a vested interest in your success. A good relationship with a Champion is worth a thousand contacts with chumps.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think most entrepreneurs think Twitter is the way to get more business, and some people think you’ll make new friends, but I think the real importance of Twitter is far beyond that. It is certainly much more powerful than Facebook.</p>
<p>We’re all busy – we want bite-sized chunks of the right, up-to-date, cutting edge information. I don’t want to search for information, scan Blogs, or wade through web pages. Clay Shirkey says this a lot better than I can. See <a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/clay_shirky_how_cellphones_twitter_facebook_can_make_history.html" target="_blank">this video</a> about Twitter.</p>
<p>Our futures are shaped by the information we are exposed to. We see philosophy and information shaping current events every day. Leaders and producers need access to the right information, and you can choose your input information via Twitter. Simply elect whom you want to follow. Naturally, the Iranians, North Koreans, and Chinese don’t want their robot slaves seeing Twitter. Fast, crucial information, on a platform where free speech is surviving the media vomit of the socialists and mystics, is crucial, and Twitter provides just that. You can have instant access to important information from the right people instantaneously, and you can get it with very little time or research.</p>
<p>I want to hear what certain people are saying and how they are perceiving what is happening in the world, and I find that information on Twitter. I can read <a href="http://bit.ly/l5JnB" target="_blank">this article</a> by Mark Steyn or get the latest from Christopher Hitchens or the Cato Institute or Borat. Get the truth, get it fast, and learn what you need.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>I have a Diamond Rolodex of Champions </strong>– people who provide outstanding service, and whose integrity and professionalism are beyond question. Out of all the people I know, these are the only people I personally work with and recommend in their particular fields of expertise. In my opinion, they are the cream of the crop, and the best I have found in the past twelve years.</p>
<p><strong>So, here are the fields that my top fourteen Champions excel in:</strong></p>
<p>1.    Insurance products and financial planning.<br />
2.    Land (real estate) investments.<br />
3.    Personal investment – safe 1% per month fixed return.<br />
4.    Dental Laboratory.<br />
5.    Realtor.<br />
6.    Jeweler.<br />
7.    Webmaster.<br />
8.    Travel Agent.<br />
9.    Direct mail and printing.<br />
10.    Immigration lawyer.<br />
11.    Lumber.<br />
12.    Bodyguards / personal protection / collections.<br />
13.    Sound Studio.<br />
14.    Corporate gifts / clothing / ad specialties.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Do you want to start mixing with people who can help you become financially free and successful? Most people are looking in the wrong place – no wonder they’re stuck in quicksand.</strong></p>
<p><em><strong>I didn’t say this,</strong></em> but it is true. Keith Ferrazzi, in his excellent book, “Never Eat Alone”, said, “I’ve never been to a so-called ‘networking event’ in my life. If properly organized, these get-togethers in theory <strong><em>could</em></strong> work. Most, however, are for the desperate and uninformed.” I’ve been saying this for years, but when a world leader like Ferrazzi says it, people might take notice.</p>
<p>Most networking events consist of a bunch of broke, self-employed salespeople trying to sell stuff to other broke people, and every second one of them is a “coach”, “consultant”, “speaker” or “writing a book”. Talk about the blind leading the blind! That’s why I started DollarMakers – we have a Code of Ethics, and I fire people who lie, cheat, and steal. I have never heard of a Chamber of Commerce firing anyone. We have standards and we educate our Members. And there is no fee to join the <a href="http://www.DollarMakersWomensClub.com" target="_blank">DollarMakers Women’s Club</a>.</p>
<p>Like, it is said, attracts like. Birds of the feather. We’ve heard that the “duds lead to studs”, but usually the studs don’t want to have anything to do with the duds, so it very seldom happens in reality. Studs introduce you to other studs. The duds will introduce you to people like themselves. Who needs that?</p>
<p>The key to success is mixing with winners and learning from people who are smarter, richer, and more successful than you are. Make a good impression on a winner, earn the right, contribute to his or her success, establish your credibility, integrity, attitude, and motivation in his mind, and he might introduce you to a friend of his. One champion is worth a hundred losers. Being selective and avoiding the poisonous parasites and time vampires will free up your mind and time for real achievements.</p>
<p>Think of people like links in a chain. There are basically only two types of people,  and one type (97% of people) will link you to others who will link you to mediocrity, frustration, and failure, while the other type (3% of people) will link you to people who will, in turn, link you to health, wealth and happiness. You only have 24 hours a day – spend it with winners; they understand relationships and reciprocation. Judge YOURSELF by the company you keep and decide whether you’re heading for success or failure.</p>
<p>Finally, when I talk about champions, I’m not talking about people you pay to have a photo taken with them or to attend their “coaching” program – I’m talking about truly successful entrepreneurs with whom you can Joint Venture, and from whom you can learn – not people who are constantly trying to upsell you. Mr. Ferrazzi said, “Remember, if you’re organized, and a stickler for taking names, there’s no-one that’s out of reach.” That’s great news, isn’t it? What goes around, comes around. Read his book, and start being as picky about each of your associates as you would be if you were spending $20,000 on a diamond.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>You should always look for ten things in a Joint Venture:</strong></p>
<p>1. No Money – that is no cost to you.<br />
2. No Risk – to either party.<br />
3. Very Little Time Invested by you.<br />
4. Easy to Sell / Promote and Track.<br />
5. Credible, High Quality, Unique, and Large Demand &#8211; Necessary Service or Product.<br />
6. High Income Potential, preferably unlimited.<br />
7. Easy, Natural Fit with the other things you am currently doing.<br />
8. Maximum Leverage.<br />
9. Quick to set up, quick to make money.<br />
10. Honestly and Track Record of the person behind the JV.</p>
<p><strong>Here is one that fits ALL the above criteria perfectly for you. It can make you anywhere from a hundred to five thousand dollars a month – or more. No cost, risk, or concerns. Sounds too good to be true, oh skeptical one? Read on.<br />
</strong><br />
One thing that MANY people want is a good, solid, classy website. Usually, they are expensive, and the web “masters” are manipulative, passive aggressive types that make you wait ages for an important adjustment that takes minutes to make, yet they charge you an arm and a leg and complain all the way to the bank to cash your check. Most of us are not techies (thankfully) and we want simple, DIY, yet classy, and we want support.</p>
<p>Dean Ponak is an honorable, respected Member of DollarMakers with a great business track record and a generous, abundant mindset. He created a JV that you can participate in TODAY, that costs you nothing and can make you a lot of residual income. He created a service that provides excellent, full flash websites, including domain registration, unlimited hosting, unlimited email, etc., for a mere $20 per month. That’s right – no upfront fee, no hidden costs, the real deal. Twenty dollars per month for a great website.  <strong>Note:</strong> This is <strong>not </strong>a Network Marketing (MLM) company.</p>
<p>And here’s the best part: When you become an affiliate (no charge) and someone clicks on your link and buys a site, YOU get ten dollars per month from that sale every month – 50% of the fee! So if you get just 100 people to buy $20 sites, you make $1,000 per month, every month! When you get to 500 people, you’re earning $5,000 per month in residual income. And so on. A Pension Plan par excellence!</p>
<p>So far, so good, right? OK, the next question is &#8220;How Do I Promote My Affiliate Link?&#8221; How about your e-mail signature, your Blog, your own website and database, your ezine, <a href="http://www.facebook.com/robinj.elliott" target="_blank">Facebook</a>, <a href="http://www.twitter.com/thedollarmaker" target="_blank">Twitter</a>, newsgroups, chat groups, Skype, Linked In, your family and friends, work associates, customers, downline, and on and on and on. I love it!</p>
<p>More information about this great income opportunity right here: <a href="http://www.JVWebPartners.com" target="_blank">www.JVWebPartners.com</a></p>
<p>No more excuses – sign up right away. You snooze, you lose!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you pulling my leg? We all know how much websites cost &#8211; decent ones, that is. And how hard it is to get the passive-aggressive web&#8221;master&#8221; to make any changes, always at a cost, of course. It takes days or weeks for him to finally deign to make a change that he could have made in three minutes or less, and then he bills us for two hours!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m fortunate, in that my webmasters are real masters who are also my friends and Joint Venture partners, but most people feel like they&#8217;re stuck between a rock and a hard place when it comes to creating good websites with real domain names of their choosing and sufficient space.</p>
<p>Along comes Dean Ponak, and he tells me that he can provide a great, full flash website,  that one can change oneself, with a real, unique domain name,unlimited hosting and unlimited e mail &#8211; FOR TWENTY DOLLARS A MONTH! And he wasn&#8217;t joking &#8211; I know Dean &#8211; he&#8217;s as serious as a heart attack when it comes to integrity in business.</p>
<p>And did I mention that you can earn ten dollars commission per month on the monthly $20 fee of everyone you refer, and it&#8217;s not MLM? Amazing, yet true.  <strong>Here&#8217;s his advert:</strong></p>
