Hi everyone! I just got back from a weekend recollection. And truly, it's AMAZING!!! *smiles* God is really an awesome God! Hopefully, I'll make a discussion about it later.:) For now, I want to share this wonderful thoughts. I was touched because I know that most of us here think that if we aren't gifted, we are NOTHING, or we can't be successful. We forgot the truth that all of us are given the SAME opportunity and great minds to make a difference and touch others' lives AND also, to create money and make a stream of income flowing in our bank accounts. Again, it's a matter of perspectives. It's a matter of MAKING the CHOICE. (",) ================================================================== Question: Which people make the most money? Answer: It's mostly the people who use their imagination to create things ... people like Stephen King who create stories, people like Michael Jackson who create music, people like the Ted Turner's and Richard Branson's who build organizations, the Jerry Seinfeld's who create entertainment and the Calvin Klein's who create "a style". So you say, "If I'm not a creative genius, and I want to make more money, where will it come from?" Answer: "From your imagination - whoever you are." Example: Let's say that you are broke and living on bread and water. You ask yourself, "How can I eat some healthy food and save money?" Answer: "I'll grow bean sprouts in my kitchen for virtually nothing!" After a month of eating sprouts you figure, "I hate sprouts! I'll sell my sprouts to the neighbors for a dollar a bag, and buy steak!" Ideas solve your money problems! Example: You are already working for a boss but you want to make money in your spare time. You ask yourself, "What skills have I got - or what do I love to do - that people will pay me to do?" You imagine yourself making personalised greeting cards or walking the neighbours' dogs. You imagine yourself renovating your apartment or teaching aerobics. You try some ideas. Eventually one works. Where did it all begin? In your imagination. If you already have your own business, increased profits will likely depend on how imaginatively you answer questions like ... "How can I do more with less?" "How can I manage my time better?" "What do people really want - and how can I deliver it?" And guess what! Many of your ideas won't work. Fortunately, you don't need every idea to work - just one or two. ================================================================== Source: Seashell Publishers ----- "If money comes from your imagination, it is not necessarily working harder that will make you more money - it is an increase in the quantity and the quality of your ideas." ***** Have a great Monday everyone! I'm glad there's no work today. *Yohooooo!* :) I'm able to rest (even just for a day) after being physically and emotionally drained from the weekend recollection. But I'm glad and never regretted that I attend it. (",) Take care and God bless everyone! \(",)_ *mwah*

Which people make the most money? Mothers is my answer. They make remedies to provide that thing we call money primarily to sustain the needs of her kids. On instances where income of the husband or both husband and wind can't make both ends meet it is the mother who has the instinct to make the solution. That MONEY whether how much it is is not monetarily quantified rather it is quantified with LOVE. Good day.

Hi geretzki! You're right about that. Mothers have the capability to balance things, especially the finances in the family. They know how to balance time - at work and also with her family. (",) Take care and God bless! \(",)_

You got that right. If you are not one of those people, usually you are out of luck. I guess that explains too why I am not rich because I have not create anything or came up with the big idea. Maybe in my next life time, I will be one of those people.
