Declare Your Own Independence

If you’re in the US and celebrating the Fourth of July, Independence Day (or even if you’re not), here’s something else you can do besides shoot off fireworks and barbecue.

Declare your own independence.

- Declare your independence from allowing outside forces to determine how you feel.

- Declare your independence from allowing the stock market or other economic indicators to determine your financial health.

- Declare your independence from allowing advertisers to determine how you should look and what you should eat.

The only one who can determine the conditions in your life, including how you feel and how much money you have or do not have, is you. You are responsible for your own life, and the sooner you realize this, the sooner you will have the power to change what you want to change.

Your thoughts create your life experience. Whatever you are experiencing in your life right now, is the result of the thought patterns you’ve had in the past, either consciously or unconsciously.

The Bible tells us that As a man thinketh, so is he. This idea has been repeated by every spiritual teaching for the past 2,000 years or more. It’s time we honored it and took back our own personal power. It is time we took back control of our thoughts.

Begin today to take an active role in creating your life. Choose your thoughts intentionally and with care. Monitor your self-talk. Affirm your dreams and goals daily.

It Takes More Than Labor to Succeed Today

Labor Day has always been one of my favorite holidays. Actually, I like all holidays:-) 

However, Labor Day is special because it celebrates the American worker who, lest we forget, is responsible for having helped build the quality of life available to us here in the United States. 

Unfortunately, too many hard working American’s are struggling these days. Many have seen their jobs vanish to the global economy while others, still working, are struggling just to keep up with rising prices. 

Back in 1974, I made a personal decision to take control over my destiny and started my own business. This came after seeing my boss, a man in his 50′s with a sick child and a wife in the hospital, fired at midnight on a Friday. I vowed then that I would not let that ever happen to me. People being treated poorly by some employers is nothing new. 

While in my case, things did not go as planned, due mainly to a lack of knowledge and my destructive habits, I survived and, in the years since, have managed to remain self-employed in one fashion or another. While there have been (many) up’s and down’s, I would not trade it for anything. 

Today, more than ever, it’s important that you take more control over your financial destiny. Whether you have a job or own your own business, chances are you rely on a single stream of income for your financial security. This can, as many have learned, be devastating. 

Whether you, like millions of others, are supplementing your income with a network marketing or ebay business or are a blogger or affiliate marketer, it’s important for you to be doing something to add income streams. 

What business could you start or join, part-time, that would give you personal satisfaction, be enjoyable (it has to be fun) and provide you with additional income?

If you’re not sure or would like to learn more about the ways you can increase your income and lower your expenses, take advantage of my Labor Day special offer for my debt reduction income producing home study course.
