The Home Business Diva's "Top 10 Success Strategies" For Long Term Results In The Network Marketing & Direct Sales Industry
2. Look for a company that has outside third party validation, products that are in high demand and strong value, a powerful compensation where YOU get paid first and YOU keep 100% of YOUR Profits, a supportive, caring and growing community available to assist you, along with a planned vision for growth into the future. Finally, as Robert Kiyosaki says, be sure there is ongoing Personal Development Training and Mentoring.
3. Be certain your company has invested in a top notch, turn-key proven Training Program that includes Successful International Trainers, an up-to-date "plug and play" Marketing System designed by experts in this industry, utilizing current, state of the art technology.
4. Commit to the Company System and become part of the Company Community. Surround yourself with successful, like minded individuals as often as possible and watch what happens!
5. Stay in touch with your enroller often to review your progress, especially in the first 30 days. Take the time to build a solid infrastructure in your business.
6. Take personal responsibility, and have accountability every day.
7. Have patience, Rome wasn't built in a day!
8. Identify your goals and chart your progress daily. Ask yourself this question throughout the day... "Is what I am doing right now moving me towards my goals or away from my goals?"
9. Make business decisions based on Facts, not Fear.
10. Finally, when seeking advice regarding your business, rely on the wisdom of the successful and experienced people in your industry, not on your spouse, family or friends. After all, if you required open heart surgery, you would not seek the advice of a brain surgeon!
Follow these simple strategies without exception, and look for more tips next week!

Thomas Edison once observed that the reason most folks don’t recognize opportunity when it comes along is that it is often dressed in coveralls and look like work. Often opportunity involves a great deal of work and a willingness to take a chance on something, the outcome of which may be uncertain. Eventually you reach a point when you must either accept an opportunity with all of its unknowns or else turn your back on it. No one can tell you when you have reached that point; you alone know when it’s time to make your move, to have the courage to take a chance.

Thought For Today
May 25, 2010
GREAT ACHIEVEMENT IS BORN OF A STRUGGLE.
"Our strength grows out of our weakness," said Ralph Waldo Emerson. "Not until we are pricked and stung and sorely shot at, awakens the indignation which arms itself with secret forces." Strife and struggle can inspire you to overcome adversity and to propel yourself to real achievement. View every struggle as an opportunity for personal growth. It is the struggle itself, not the result that builds character. If you know you are right, stay the course even though the whole world seems to be against you and everyone you know questions your judgment. When you prevail-and you eventually will if you stick to the job-they will all tell you that they knew all along you could do it.

Your view of yourself will greatly influence how others perceive you. If you are a confident, cheerful, positive person, your co-workers, friends, and family will be attracted to your personality. If you are unhappy, negative, and always complaining about your situation, others will be repelled. Even when at times you don’t feel very happy, by forcing yourself to behave in a positive fashion, you will find that you soon feel genuinely upbeat, because your subconscious mind doesn’t know the difference between an artificial emotion and the real thing. When you behave positively, you will positively influence everyone around you-including yourself.

"If your only goal is to become rich,
you will never achieve it."
— John D. Rockefeller: Was an American industrialist and philanthropist
If you lock in to a goal to improve your relationships, your health, or your career track, you probably will. But achieving prosperity is a little different. You have to sneak up on it from behind. Goals to become rich fall flat — but setting goals to improve the lives of as many people as possible... that's the precise minute you follow the footsteps to prosperity.

THE IMAGINATION IS THE WORKSHOP OF THE SOUL, WHERE ARE SHAPED ALL THE PLANS FOR INDIVIDUAL ACHIEVEMENT.
Before you can build anything worthwhile, you must first create it in your mind. Your mind is not constrained by physical limitations or boundaries. In the workshop of your mind, you can visualize things that have never been. It is said that Albert Einstein visualized how the universe might look if he were riding astride a beam of light through infinity. Then he worked out the mathematics to support his theory of relativity. You can use the power of your imagination to visualize solutions to difficult problems, to develop new ideas, and to see yourself achieving the goals you have set for yourself.

YOU MUST GET BUSY DOING SOMETHING ABOUT GOING THE EXTRA MILE.
It’s well and good to feel as though you have changed the attitude with which you render extra service, but if that service is in truth no more than anyone else’s, then you aren’t doing yourself much good. You need to examine your co-workers and competitors to understand just what it is that will make you stand out. If there are job performance standards, exceed them. If you’re fulfilling a contract, make sure you offer more than you promised. You cannot confine extra-mile service to your work alone. You must make it part of your philosophy for dealing with every person you encounter. Imagine how others will be delighted to find that you are the type of person who not only does what is promised but even delivers more. The true benefit of going the extra mile is in teaching yourself to strive always for better and greater achievement in all that you do.
This positive message is brought to you by the Napoleon Hill Foundation.

life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let
me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."
— Steve Jobs: Co-founder and CEO of Apple Inc.
Where do you place your trust? Without putting your trust in someone or something, you must face your fears and life’s obstacles alone. And the more faith you do have, the stronger you’ll be. Perhaps your faith is tied to religion. Maybe your greatest trust exists with your family and friends. Hopefully you trust the powers of your own mind and body. Open your heart and mind to trust … you’ll find it opens opportunities in turn.
BEGIN WITH LEARNING TO TRUST YOURSELF, YOUR OWN GUT INSTINCT! Have a fantastic day!

"START GOING THE EXTRA MILE AND OPPORTUNITY WILL FOLLOW YOU."
Going the extra mile can give you insight and a good reputation, both of which attract opportunity. Many obvious opportunities are found in places no one else has bothered to venture. If you put in the extra effort to make a good project an even better one, or you get to know your equipment better than anyone else on your shift, you will see things others overlook and be in a position to make use of them. Leaders who need a job done think first of people they know who will do it well. If other people respect you for the quantity and the quality of your work, you will find yourself advancing past others who regard their jobs as drudgery. For all the extra service that you’ve rendered, you’ll find yourself more than amply compensated by opportunities others never grasp.

There’s an old adage that those who refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. So it is with our failures. Unless we learn from our mistakes, we are likely to repeat them until we learn from such experiences and correct our course-or give up and accept temporary defeat as permanent failure. Every setback you encounter in life contains valuable information that, if you study it carefully, will eventually lead you to success. Without adversity, you would never develop wisdom, and without wisdom, success would be short lived indeed. When you make a mistake, say, "That’s good! I’ve gotten that out of the way. I will never do that again." You will no doubt make other mistakes, but they won’t bother you nearly as much when you treat them as learning experiences.

"MOST FAILURES COULD HAVE BEEN CONVERTED INTO SUCCESSES IF SOMEONE HAD HELD ON ANOTHER MINUTE OR MADE MORE EFFORT." Napoleon Hill
When you have the potential for success within you, adversity and temporary defeat only help you prepare to reach great heights of success. Without adversity, you would never develop the qualities of reliability, loyalty, humility, and perseverance that are so essential to enduring success. Many people have escaped the jaws of defeat and achieved great victories because they would not allow themselves to fail. When your escape routes are all closed, you will be surprised how quickly you will find the path to success.

The Perfect Storm" is TODAY
"So often we wait for the climate and conditions in life to be perfect before we feel safe enough to step forward, trust, and be our authentic selves. What we don't realize is that in order to create the ideal climate we are waiting for, we must be authentic first."
We are all guilty of waiting.
Sometimes we wait until New Year's to start thinking about our health.
We wait until the test nears to start studying.
And we tend to wait until life takes a turn for the worse before we start changing.
Whether you wait or not, your computer clock is still ticking seconds away right now.
The time to become our true selves and realize a new brand of
spiritual freedom is now.
COURAGE, CREATIVITY, CREDIBILITY & PASSION

COURAGE
I recalled the words of my rich dad: "The biggest challenge you have is your own self-doubt and your laziness. It is your self-doubt and your laziness that define and limit who you are. It is your self-doubt and laziness that deny you the life you want." -- Robert Kiyosaki
"OK, let's set the goal to be financially free." That was New Year's Day 1985. In 1994 Kim and I were free. Things got worse for us before they got better. Kim and I lived in a car for about three weeks after our money ran out. So things did not get better just because we made the decision to retire rich, but it was the reasons why that kept us going. It was time to choose.-- Robert Kiyosaki author of "Rich Dad Poor Dad" & CO Author "Why We Want You To Be Rich"
"All our dreams can come true - if we have the courage to pursue them." - Walt Disney
"Courage is the thing. All goes if courage goes." -- J.M. Barrie
CREATIVITY
"Creativity is inventing, experimenting, growing, taking risks, breaking rules, making mistakes and having fun." -- Mary Lou Cook
CREDIBILITY
"It takes a lot of things to prove you are smart, but only one thing to prove you are ignorant." -- Don Herold
PASSION
"The greatest composer does not sit down to work because he is inspired, but becomes inspired because he is working." Ernest Newman
Rich dad used to say: "If you want something, be passionate. Passion gives energy to your life." Passion is a combination of love and hate. "If you want something you do not have, find out why you love what you want and why you hate not having what you want. When you combine those two thoughts, you will find the energy to go get anything you want." -- Robert Kiyosaki

Precious Time ... How Much is Your Time WORTH?
Sometimes we all need reminding that,
“the most important things in life aren’t things.”
In the faint light of the attic, an old man, tall and stooped, bent his great frame and made his way to a stack of boxes that sat near one of the little half-windows. Brushing aside a wisp of cobwebs, he tilted the top box toward the light and began to carefully lift out one old photograph album after another. Eyes once bright but now dim searched longingly for the source that had drawn him here.
Setting aside one of the dusty albums, he pulled from the box what appeared to be a journal from his grown son’s childhood. He could not recall ever having seen it before, or that his son had ever kept a journal. Why did Elizabeth always save the children’s old junk? he wondered, shaking his white head.
Entry after entry stirred a sentimental hunger in his heart like the longing a gardener feels in the winter for the fragrance of spring flowers. But it was accompanied by the painful memory that his son’s simple recollections of those days were far different from his own. But how different?
Opening a glass cabinet door, he reached in and pulled out an old business journal. Turning, he sat down at his desk and placed the two journals beside each other. His was leather-bound and engraved neatly with his name in gold, while his son’s was tattered and the name “Jimmy” had been nearly scuffed from its surface. He ran a long skinny finger over the letters, as though he could restore what had been worn away with time and use.
Wasted the whole day fishing with Jimmy.
Went fishing with my dad. Best day of my life.
All the money in the world will not buy you extra time...
Enjoy your weekend, and prioritize what is important to you in your lifetime, and go after it today!

WATCH THE ONE AHEAD OF YOU, AND YOU’LL LEARN WHY HE IS AHEAD. THEN EMULATE HIM
One of the surest ways to achieve success is to observe the actions of successful people, determine what principles they regularly employ, and then use them yourself. The principles of success, as Andrew Carnegie said, are definite, they are real, and they can be learned by anyone willing to take the time to study and apply them. If you are truly observant, you will find that you can learn something from almost everyone you meet. And it isn’t even necessary that you know them. You may choose great people who are no longer alive. The important thing is to study their lives, and then learn and apply in your own life the specific principles these people used to achieve greatness.

THE RIGHT SORT OF ACTIONS REQUIRE NO EMBELLISHMENT OF WORDS
A note from Robin Firestone:
No wonder why people for over 100 years refer back to Napoleon Hill. Really think about this. It is so true. No more excuses. Take responsibility for your life as it is today. Set your goals, not just on a piece of paper, but in your heart ... follow the plan that was created for you or put a plan together & follow it daily ... Take the action, and get the results you deserve! Finally, stop blaming your circumstances for your failures. Change your circumstances and surly your results will change!

The Real Power of Your Beliefs by John Assaraf
I came across this article by John Assaraf in May 2008. It is is complete alignment of how I think, act and live my life. These are the necessary steps to rid yourself of the barricade that has been surrounding you. I will teach you thru personal development, how to create the paradigm shifts so that, once and for all, you can design the life, the wealth, the abundance and prosperity that you deserve ... THAT WE ALL DESERVE!
The effects of your beliefs are not as abstract as you might think. You and I act in absolute accordance with what our internal beliefs are, and not with what we may want. We can override our beliefs temporarily using our will power, but I assure you that over the long haul the ‘internal’ image we have of our self will always win.
Let’s say you’re looking at a restaurant menu. You’ll make a decision and take action by ordering and eating the food that aligns with your beliefs about health and nutrition. The result of that decision will determine whether or not you’ll have an abundance of energy. It will determine, over a period of time, your external appearance. It will also determine your internal health.
As you can see, one small decision affects a whole range of things. Choosing improperly for long periods is a sure-fire route to a mediocre life. What you must consider is whether or not your beliefs can get you to the destination of your dreams. It is critical to evaluate the results in your life and to understand the true underlying cause that is creating those results.
Break Free From Your Past ... It's Not As Difficult As You May Think!
Perhaps you’ve heard about how elephants are trained to stand tied to a tiny stake in the ground, which they could easily pull up simply by using their considerable strength against the restraint. When an elephant is young, the trainer uses a heavy chain with a shackle around the calf’s ankle, which causes painful sores when the baby elephant tries to move. Within a short period of time, the animal is conditioned to recognize that pulling equals pain. As the elephant matures, the trainer can use a weaker and weaker tether because the elephant won’t test it, until a simple rope tied to a tent stake will keep this five-ton animal from roaming.
It’s likely that many of the beliefs you have today are acting like that weak rope, perhaps holding you in place and preventing you from going where you want to be. That’s why people stay in relationships that aren’t working, keep a job they don’t like, continue neglecting their health, and so on. The good news is you can change. You can break free. You can choose your beliefs and therefore change your results.
*Consciously choosing what to believe, whether it’s about health, religon, marriage, children, career, other people, or anything else gives those beliefs more weight, more meaning in your life.*
I chose to hold onto some of the beliefs I adopted when I was younger—being a risk-taker, trusting my instincts, believing in myself as a manager and even a visionary—and, of course, I decided to jettison those beliefs that were holding me back. Thinking I was not smart enough, that people didn’t like
me, and that I couldn’t trust anyone else were definitely not going to get me where I wanted to go. I realized, through the help of many mentors, that for anything in my life to change, I had to change. It works from the inside out, not from the outside in.
Ask yourself whether your most dearly held beliefs are serving you or not. Do they help you create the life of your dreams? Or do they limit you and the people you love? Remember that beliefs are like blinders for humans. They can be so powerful that they cause you to see only what’s in line with them. Yet they are not the Truth. They are just your perception of the truth, based on your past teachings, experiences, and evaluations.
You can choose to change any belief that is not helping you create the life you really want. Fill out the contact form at the top of the page. Let's spend a few minutes together, over the phone. I will share more information with you, how once and for all, there is a Home Business that will teach you how to get results! Today!

INTENTION VS. ACTION ... The Best Of Both will Create Two Totally Different Outcomes
PROCRASTINATION IS THE BAD HABIT OF PUTTING OFF UNTIL THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN DONE THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY.
For an achiever, perhaps the most dangerous, most destructive habit of all is procrastination, for it robs you of your initiative. When you put things off once, it’s easier to put them off again, until the habit is so firmly ingrained that it cannot be easily broken.
Sadly, the effects of the habit of procrastination are also cumulative. Its cure is obvious-action. You’ll be surprised how quickly you begin to feel better about yourself and your situation when you get going on something-anything. As British prime minister and author Benjamin Disraeli said, "Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action."
THE HABITUAL PROCRASTINATOR IS ALWAYS AN EXPERT CREATOR OF ALIBIS.
If you are so inclined, you can always find dozens of reasons why something can’t or should not be done-and precious few why it should or could. It is far easier to rationalize that it’s too difficult, too expensive, or too time-consuming than to accept the idea that if we are willing to work hard enough, smart enough, and long enough we can accomplish anything. Instead of making a commitment, we make up an alibi. If you find that you frequently invent excuses for why you didn’t do something or have a million reasons why something didn’t work out as planned, it’s time for a reality check. Stop explaining and start doing!
INTENTION VS. ACTION ... The Best Of Both will Create Two Totally Different Outcomes
So let's talk about this. Intention is something that we all have. For example, I intend to get to the gym today, or I will definitely get to that tomorrow .... You all know what I am referring to.
Whereas, actually getting off your butt and getting to the gym, or working on your Personal Development today, so you can have the necessary paradigm shift to take responsibility for the difference between knowing and doing. We all fall into this at times in our lives. For the majority of people though, you starve the ACTION and you feed the INTENTION.
Let's flip it. If you know what you should be doing, do it NOW. Get stuff done, instead of thinking about getting it done, or planning to get it done.
Get in touch with me today and I will give you some exercises that will flip the switch. We will work on defining your goals and setting forth a plan of action to achieve them, finally, once and for all!
Let's talk about my Home Business Franchise, that is creating change, every day, in every way, in peoples lives. all over the world!

Your Choice ... Whine & Complain or Learn The Lesson & Prevail
"I was lucky. I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation - the Macintosh - a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started?
Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
I really didn't know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me - I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.
I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT.
I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.
I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers."
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking.
Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.
A personal note from Robin: I love what what I do from the moment I wake up, till my eyes gently close when I go to sleep each night. The passion I have to share my knowledge as a Success Coach and Personal Development Trainer, never lets up.

What do you have yo loose? Only the rest of your life!

Morning Inspiration
Vince Lombardi was one of the most successful professional football coaches in the history of the game. He was unparalleled in motivating his players to excel at their game and to be unstoppable.
His philosophy and outlook in life inspire me today and everday as we all play the game of life!
Here's an inspiring Vince Lombardi quote that really got me going when I read it morning:
"It is time for us all to stand and cheer for the doer, the achiever - the one who recognizes the challenges and does something about it."

Liberty League Press Release
WEBWIRE – Thursday, July 17, 2008
Liberty League International, one of the world’s leading personal development companies hosted their July 2008 Liberty Conference at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Beach Resort & Spa on Hawaii’s Big Island.
Scottsdale, AZ (Webwire) July 17, 2008 - Liberty League International, one of the world’s leading personal development companies, raised the bar again by hosting a sold out Liberty Conference at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Beach Resort & Spa on Hawaii’s Big Island. More than one thousand attendees participated in the life changing event which took place July 10-12, 2008.
The event kicked off with a welcome celebration at an oceanfront lagoon where new and repeat attendees mingled under the stars. The opening remarks from Co-Founders Brent Payne and Shane Krider set the stage for a week filled with energy and personal growth. “We have a very amazing group of people in this community,” Payne stated. “These conferences are a direct reflection of who you are.”
Reaching to both the hearts and minds of the participants, speakers Lee Brower and Sam Crowley made a powerful impact on the audience. “What an awesome experience! From opening my mind to opening my heart, the speakers really got to the core of being successful in every avenue of life,” Kyle Clouse from Gilbert, Arizona stated.
EMC Member Robin Firestone from Bluffton, South Carolina added, “The Co-Founders of LLI, Brent Payne and Shane Krider, continue to raise the bar for Personal Development Conferences worldwide. The speakers, Lee Brower and Sam Crowley had such a powerful, positive impact on over 1000 attendees; it is almost indescribable unless you were there!”
The Liberty Conference gave people the opportunity to be authentic, the freedom to be open and vulnerable in a public setting. Personal reflections of adversity were expressed and shared, and community members took the stage to tell their stories. “It’s inspiring to see how real everyone is,” Clouse added. “We truly are part of a big team and family. I can’t wait for Summit.”
The company continues to expand their base internationally and has increased the number of attendees at their respective conferences titled The Liberty Conference and The Summit Conference. These conferences are at the forefront of personal transformations, breakthroughs and growth. The company announced the upcoming Summit Conference at the Atlantis Resort in Nassau, Bahamas October 12 - October 16, 2008, and the Liberty Conference will be held in March 2009 in Acapulco, Mexico.
“Rarely will one find a community of awakened individuals living life with purpose and intent,” Emil Torabi from San Ramon, California stated. “Everyone deserves to be part of this. Get to the next event! It will change you, and your results.”
Andrea Oppedisano from Tustin, California added, “No matter what, find a way to go to Atlantis in the Bahamas in October. You deserve the best life possible and this will assist you in getting it!”

I Invite YOU to Take a Sneak Peak at How I Live My Life!
This was my ninth Liberty Conference with Liberty League International. I joined LLI back in January 2004, and attended my first Liberty conference just 2 weeks later. My husband Jack and I have never missed an event with Liberty League and we never will! Each time we attend a Conference, we come back with such clarity and purpose. It is like discovering a new emotion, a new sense. It's like tasting chocolate for the very first time. One you start, you can never get enough!
With that said, we just returned home from the Liberty Conference which was held at the magnificent Hilton Hawaiian Village in Oahu Hawaii. The co founders of LLI, Brent Payne and Shane Rider continue to raise the bar for Personal Development Conferences worldwide. The speakers, Lee Brower and Sam Crowley had such a powerful, positive impact on over 1000 attendees, it is almost indescribable unless you were there!
Watch this video. Envision what your life COULD be!

Thank You for Your Support! Please Click on the Cover of the Book to Order Your Copy Today!

To our family and friends,
Wow, the day is finally here. Jack and I are very excited to announce to you, that we are officially published "authors!" Our book "Chasing Diana" has arrived.
Yesterday, we received the first printed copy, for proof purposes. Well, it is now ready to go to print. We pre ordered 100 copies which we will hopefully have in time for Hawaii. So many of you have requested signed copies of our book. We are filled with gratitude by your support and well wishes.
Our family knows the long, sometimes painful journey that we rode over the last 10 years, as a direct result of what we witnessed that horrible night. Thank you for your support through the very rough times.
Thank you, to Mr. Mohammed Al Fayed. When we finally met in December 2007, after the final inquest, we shared our tears, our anguish, and so much more. Jack and I will never, ever forget, the look in your eyes, when we all realized we shared the same vision for the quest for the truth. How sad, the full story still has yet to unfold. We will always hold a place for you in our hearts.
We want to also thank Brent Payne and Shane Krider. As a direct result of our experiences with Liberty League over the last 4 1/2 years, and utilizing the principles in Beyond Freedom, this is now a reality. We could never have found the time that was required to see this to fruition, if we were still tied down to our corporate lives. I have learned so much through personal development these last few years. There is so much I want to share with you, as to the important role you both played, but I will save that for when we see you in Hawaii next week.
More than ever, I know that anyone, anywhere, can reach their goals, no matter how far away they appear, or who tries to hold them back, or how difficult the journey may seem.
