Hey there, my friends ~ Mindset is everything! Entrepreneurs have either a wealth mindset, in which case nothing will prevent them from accumulating wealth as long as they do their best to do so; or a scarcity mindset, in which case almost nothing will help them to accumulate wealth no matter what they do. For all those who suspect that they have a poverty mindset picked up by osmosis from their parents or grandparents, I recommend “Think And Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill for a mindset tune up. It really isn't about working and slaving, it's more about believing it […]

Hey there, Today is a day that we honor fathers, so my mind naturally wanders to thinking about fathers and entrepreneurs (because, being one, my mind naturally wanders to entrepreneurship every day). Happy Fathers Day to all of the fathers, fathers to be, and father figures as well! May you be honored today by those you love. What is similar about entrepreneurs and fathers, you ask? At the most basic level, both are creators! Fathers dream of being fathers, sow their seed and, if their act is intentional, they watch over and protect their child (and ideally the mother of […]

Hello all, You've heard of moving on to Plan B, right? Well, the past few days, I've “one upped” myself and moved right on past Plan B and Plan C to the mystery of Plan D! Go ahead! You can chuckle under your breath or “Laugh Out Loud” if you must. I get it! In fact, if I were the reader instead of the writer, I probably would too. The thing is, as an entrepreneur you are going to just have some days that happen like this too! There will be some days where Plan A, Plan B, and Plan […]

So, now for part 2 of the Do Or Die Challenge we entrepreneurs were given in Montego Bay. You know they say that people are more afraid of public speaking than of death and I reckon I was scared just about to death. Oh, I was doing just fine heading up to the front. But I was at the head of the line, you see. So I didn't see anyone else having their computers or notes or anything taken away from them before it happened to me. After taking my computer, the emcee was so reassuring. “All you need to […]

Hey there, About 5 weeks ago, I was on stage speaking to somewhere between 70 and 100 people, extemporaneously. It was sort of a do or die challenge thrown out to us. Now for you “big word haters” out there, the definition: Extemporaneously definition = done, spoken, performed, etc., without special advance preparation; impromptu: an extemporaneous speech. I had been on stage twice earlier in the 10 day Mastermind. Once I was reading an email I was sending to my list. The second time, I was on stage to video another attendee's coaching session with our very own online multi millionaire superstar, […]

Hello all, I want to encourage you all with one simple step which is the most important and therefore the very first step for anyone starting out on the journey that is being an entrepreneur. Gratitude is SO important. It is the ultimate game changer! If we want to attract more of what we want in our life, we need to learn to be grateful for the goodness we already experience in our life. This is an exercise that can completely change one's day, or even one's life. Whenever we are feeling good about our life, we attract more goodness […]

Hey there friend, I have some random thoughts about starting out as an entrepreneur to share with you this evening that I hope will be an encouragement and a practical help to my readers. These thoughts come from my own experience starting out and some of what I have learned in these first few months. I started out about seven months ago now with not much cash flow at all and even less knowledge of affiliate marketing or internet marketing, but with lots of time on my hands, my available time limited mostly by my physical situation and the health care […]

So, here I am again in the wee hours of the morning, your “Encore Career Entrepreneur”~ wannabe blogger ~thinking about what it is that keeps me going and going (kind of like the EverReady bunny) until these kinds of hours so often. It is a part of the laptop lifestyle that I cherish, this being able to keep going “when the Spirit moves me” doing something that I love, knowing that it is okay to be working when most of my little corner of the world is asleep. It is wonderful to know that if I'm feeling inspired, it is […]
